Minister of Mines and Minerals, Paul Kabuswe, and former Cabinet Minister Chishimba Kambwili, have traded barbs against each other, with both calling the other a “fool.” The altercation began after Kambwili referred to Kabuswe as a “corrupt former pauper.” Kabuswe responded by stating that he does not respond to fools, to which Kambwili retorted that Kabuswe is the actual fool for having responded in the first place.
Kambwili went on to accuse Kabuswe of corruption, stating that he was “getting a lot of corruption from mining companies” and that he would eventually be locked up. Kabuswe, in turn, accused Kambwili of paying people to march to his house in protest against President Hakainde Hichilema’s demotion of Anthony Bwalya.
Kambwili denies the allegations of corruption and tribalism, stating that he does not practice tribal politics and that his record in politics speaks for itself. He also stated that if Kabuswe thinks he is a fool, “thank you very much.”
Kambwili, however, did not take any steps to report the alleged corruption, stating that many people have reported corruption against government officials but no action has been taken. He believes that only time will tell.
The exchange of accusations between the two politicians is a clear indication of the tension and division within the political landscape of Zambia. The public is left to wonder if these two leaders will ever be able to put their differences aside and work together for the good of the country.
Paul Kabuswe is a government minister and and an elected official who should not lower himself to Chishimba Kambwili’s level. If he has to answer back to PF cadre Kambwili, it should be always with a cool, calm and collected demeanour as a government minister should. Kambwili operates at low levels of thinking, knowledge and manners.
Very true. His reaction on ZNBC news was embarrassing. He should be above CK.
Kambwili got a text message from Mr HH to tell him that tribalism is a crime and the following day he got a police call out….if the president can do that what can you expect from low caliber minister like Kabuswe?
May be he needs an advisor like you
@Leakage You see why the ruling partys want a state broadcaster? Because all their trash can be aired the way they want it. Why did he have to go to DeadNBC to respond to Kambwili? Because he has in the state broadcaster, a sh#t dispensing machine that he can use to indeed throw sh#t at Kambwili. Just like his boss uses Zambia Police to lock up Tayali
Ifisushi fibili trying to show which one can smell louder than the other.
So true
Never argue with a fool as people might not know the difference, now we don’t the difference between the two.
