And former Patriotic Front secretary general Edward Mumbi has advised Mr Mwamba, popularly known as GBM, to concentrate on defending himself against certain allegations made against him.
Lieutenant General Shikapwasha said Mr Mwamba should not malign him because he has nothing to do with the case the PF parliamentarian is facing.
Gen Shikapwasha said Mr Mwamba should know that when he was helping MMD members to campaign in 2006, he was doing so on the basis that he was a friend of the party.
Gen Shikapwasha, who is also Chief Government spokesperson, said it is not right for Mr Mwamba to start attacking people who have nothing to do with the allegations he is facing.
The minister said in an interview on December 13 while he has known Mr Mwamba for a long time, he has had no business dealings with him.
In his submission to the Drug Enforcement Commission (DEC) on the US$100,000 given to Mr Sata, Mr Mwamba was reported to have alleged that Gen Shikapwasha was among the people who received money from him for campaigns.
But Gen Shikapwasha has said it is not possible for him to have received money from Mr Mwamba, having known the man’s background for a long time.
The minister said it is morally wrong for Mr Mwamba to even have mentioned the name of late President Mwanawasa in his submissions to DEC.
He said Mr Mwamba and the Mwanawasa family have been close friends, and the late President had defended him in many cases.
“So, if he gave Mr Sata US$100,000, let him not drag other people into it. We cannot be part of the transaction that was conducted between him and his party leader,” Gen Shikapwasha said.
Mr Mwamba was also reported to have told the DEC that former PF secretary general Mr Mumbi is among other people who received money from him.
But Mr Mumbi said the attempt by Mr Mwamba to tell Zambians that he has been distributing his money to people will not help him.
“The quoted statement that I am among the people who benefited from Mr Mwamba’s generosity is not true.
The attempt by Mr Mwamba to tell Zambians that he gave Mr Sata money should be the issue he should concentrate on, and not lying against other people,” Mr Mumbi said.
Mr Mumbi said Mr Mwamba has started contradicting Mr Sata’s statement by revealing that he had personally taken the US$100,000 cash to Mr Sata’s house when the latter has given a statement that the transaction was handled by the bank.

Blah blah blah.
Don’t believe anything until its officially denied
Now everyone has to swim away from the truth. Mumbi is a beggar, who can believe him that he never got money for GBM? I have been with these politicians, and I know how they survive. FTJ during 1991 campaigns ate money from Terence Findlay, Late Abram Mokola and Mahtani. Ask him to deny this fact. Mahtani used Mokola for MMD and used Puta for UNIP. He was casting his nets wide just in case. Now the priestess Nakapwasha to run away from the truth tells us how a whimp he is. If he states that he knows GBM dealing, in such a connotative, why did he report this long ago? Sick woman, he is. What a coward?
what is shikapwasha and mumbi afraid of? If they, together with late mwanawasa got money from mwamba, they must just accept that. They want to criminalise others for getting money from mwamba while conviniently forgetting because it suits them. you devils!!!
Shikaps and mumbi have nt denied receiving the möney did down in their hearts but refuted it 4 the sake of publicity and other reasons known by them, just wait and see!!
Has Kafupi told us who gave him the US$ 8 Million in the Zamtrop account. Wake up Zedians, these are typical Banana republic politics, worse than animal farm. We’ve been there before under Kaunda in the name of SITET etc.
hey so sata said the money from gbm was handled by the bank while gbm says he took the cash in person????? why didn’t sata’s lawyers drill gbm in advance to tell a believeable lie? iliko bad iyi yena mwe!
Shikapwasha you are fired,so you have been getting money from GBM.
It seems all these chaps have long been beneficiaries of alms givings from the FATTY. Now Skakashindo why bring the issue of friendship btn levy and gbm in this manner, it clearly shows how dull you are, advising gbm not to drag you into the mad while you are busy doing the same to your late master. Cant this dull ***** of a minister think before he opens his kambusu. Anyways it seems its now getting interesting. Already some shika fimo is growing menomeno. ELOLWANYA DEC summon all the chaps who will be mentioned. Next matanhi shud also tell us who are da culprits.
Fili uko tuleya! Mumbi don’t throw stones if you live in a glass house.
Shikapwasha you are just a damn stincking bootlicker!!! shut the **** up coz you’v already enjoyed the money and hey!!! dog!!! concentrate on bootlicking bitch…….
Bootlicker!!!jas shut the **** up and concentrate with bootlicking….evry1 knows wat kind of a dog you are….
It all stinks, let Fatty and Rajan tell us more, some of these mutts we have as Ministers today benefitted from umu Fatty and Rajan in some way! We wander how long the long fingers that be will feed the sh…t in Edward Mumbi’s little stinky-ass belly!!!
I have always known that shikapqasha is a stupid minister. The xter is very cunning. Im even suprised that today he wants to show as if he is on late mwanawasa’s side. he has failed to defend mwanawasa’s legacy & today he is busy praising alabee & his tandem of plundarers & thieves.
No. 2. True. Great thinker.
To me no amount of smear Campaign will derail Sata from becoming President next year. As a strong believer in the Lord I have a conviction that RB who is older than Sata was temporarily put there for a purpose. To conviniently provide the gap between Late President Mwanawasa and Sata. Now the’ve got nothing more to pin Sata on.
On we need Kafupi to explain how he got the $56m, that i strongly believe he stole from us. We need this infor urgently.
Sata did not mentioned anywhere that he received money by cheque but said he did the transaction of using that money thru bank. Revisit all articles
Geoffrey Boxer Makofi (GBM), this guy, money itches him eh!! He distributes it to almost everyone, I think I will avail him my bank account so that I also benefit from his generosity, nisangwapo apa.
what is money laundering? is giving money to a relative of friend a crime in the Zambia society? some things really don’t make sense, anyway those small people are not even lawyers. small minded Zambian who waste time and precious resources investigating totally baseless things instead of investigating criminals.
Careful who you give K1,000. This RB government can pursue you through the DEC. the Zambian tax payers are funding fyalubana
MMD governemnt is too petty, these guys should be booted out next year.
Once again, this reverend Shikapwasha, has shown just how incredibly dull he is by his utterly unbelievable comments on this matter!! He says GBM should not drag other people in his personal problems he is being investigated for? How s.tu.p.id can a grown man, and a so-called reverend at that, be? When he and his MMD were busy encouraging Mumbi to “leak” confidential and personal bank information for political purposes it never once crossed their pea-sized brains that once it goes to court GBM will have to reveal ALL those who have received money from him, including those in the MMD, dead and alive? Is it logical to believe, as Mr. shikapwasha wants us to believe, that only Mr. Sata has been given money by GBM when by his own admission he confirms GMB and the MMD and its former…
Continued…Now that he has been personally named as one of those “recipients” of GBM money, he thinks his receiving money from GBM is different from GBM giving Sata money!! Unbelievable! Everyone in the MMD knows that Shikapwasha, VJ, Chiluba and a myriad others have been given money by GBM, and those of us who know this are now glad that these criminals will finally be exposed and made to account for their hypocrisy when they are called to explain themselves as Sata will be. And the beauty of it is that it an action that they themselves have brought upon themselves!! Careful what you wish for, you just might get it, says an old adage. Then truth shall set you free. Move on GBM. Tell us more.
The incomplete sentence in 21 above shopuld read “Is it logical to believe, as Mr. shikapwasha wants us to believe, that only Mr. Sata has been given money by GBM when by his own admission he confirms GMB and the MMD and its former President and republican president levy Mwanawasa were “close” friends?”
But does this Rev Shika so confused and dull.He has admitted of MMD having received money from GBM and that GBM was afriend to MMD by then ,so whats the difference now that GBM is a friend to PF.Realy short brains.Thats these Six months courses done by pastors to become pastors are too short.no wonder most of them potray vey little knowledge in most of the things.Look at Catholic priests who spends atleast seven years in training they always potray deap knowledge in most of the subjects.
Ba LT u say Gen Shikapwasha said Mr Mwamba should know that when he was helping MMD members to campaign in 2006, he was doing so on the basis that he was a friend of the party.
Now My question is :
Does this deny any recieving money from GBM? Ba LT I know you are Pro-MMD and you have been giving computer ID on bloggers to the MMD corrupt Govt. We all know this thats why No one uses the correct name on this site. If it’s something Negative on MMD in your article you try abeit with a failure to sweet coat the titles & stories. F.OO.LISH.
To all PACT supporters I wish you a MERRY XMASS, PROSPEROUS NEW YEAR WITH a REGIME CHANGE come 2011.
Ba shika are your brains ok. You have admitted he gave money to many people in MMD as donations, Why now that he gave a donation to SATA has the DEC come in. Where was the DEC when GBM was donating to you Guys in MMD.IF GBM gave donations to Levy M he has the right to say so. He is just explaining himself.
“Reverand” General Pastor Father Shikapwasha,silence is golden badaala,look how you are embarassing yourself.Dont dare GBM,he will finish you & your MMD.You guys benefited emmersely from the man.
If there iz one institution where you find very high levelz of discipline, it’s the army and more among senior officerz. It doez not matter whether one iz retired, discharged or dismisst, there iz no compromize on ethics and discipline. Shikapwasha should not use hiz Minister of Information/goverment spokesperson status ignore the fact that he still remainz an army General.
If the DEC are objective in their investigations, they will make use of all the information GBM has provided and probe everyone else that has transacted with GBM. Circumstances surrounding each transaction will definitely be unique. However, the powers that be, will always twist all information to incriminate those that might appear to be political opponents. I say a serious enquiry be conducted for everyone in political office; because I am inclined to believe that the following senior members of MMD and government have some serious skeletons from the past in their closets: George Kunda and the late Levy Mwanawasa. Consider the huge bribes they took off a certain belgian businessman in order to accelerate certain government payments in 2005-2006 to him. The walls will come tumbling down!
These are the last kicks of the dying MMD….. just watch and see
This is not the first time that GBM has said that he gave Shikas money for campgaining and Shikas never refuted, why now. When GBM was their member he donated money to them but now cos he has left them they want to make it an issue. Remember how late LPM dragged his feet over one of GBM’s bus issue, it took a lot of talking from the public for late LPM to take action. Don’t forget that we see you pipo at our places of work asking for this and that.
#7
Kadobi – I have also given money to MMD is that a crime? #31 Well said
Shikapwasha will SOON say Govt is not responsible for downfall of FINANCE BANK
Shikapwasha and Mumbi defend the ball pls .Mwamba (GBM) is # nine (9).
MERRY XMASS
I have never seen corruption/injustice so rife ever in my life, From # 1 to #33 with your intellect guys we can make a difference we are all seeing the brutal nature of rupiah,shikapwasha & the entire MMD gang. they are repossesing our freedom,property, money soon they will reposses our Wives & children. Lets put our differences aside & get rid of the cruelty of Rupiah & the entire MMD cuz its really true the acronym is Movement for Mass Destruction…….God bless U All
Are Politicians relevant? No No No! Period we can do without them.
There is no liberty without struggle. MMD will not just hand over over on a silver plate. Just listern to senior citizen and his friends. You may think they are comedians yet they are serious. And ready to shed blood for Rb.
Very few of our politicians have got principles.
One man i know who has zero principles is Micheal Sata .The man will do anything provided it benefits him and his desire to be president.
I dread the day he will be elected president.
Though these identical are less expensive evaluating to the unique ones, you will not differentiate anything between both of them
