The Patriotic Front PF, has challenged the ruling Movement for Multi Party (MMD)to disclose the source of the alleged K6 billion spent on campaign chitenge material .
PF spokesperson Given Lubinda alleged that his party had information that the MMD was using money from the national treasury for its campaign chitenge material bearing the face of Acting President Mr Rupiah Banda.
chitengi which will be distributed to across the country.
Mr Lubinda who was speaking during a press briefing in Lusaka today, claimed that the MMD were about to distribute the campaign material and challenged the party to disclose its source of the money.
The PF has urged the ruling MMD to stop distributing the chitengi materials and called on the acting president to ensure that the October 30 elections were free and fair.
At the same press briefing, the Unemployment Association of Zambia president Mpundu Mwanawela pledged to back Patriotic Front leader Michael Sata.
Mr Mwanawela said his association had made such a decision because they believed PF would address the poverty levels and the high unemployment in the country.
But when contacted for a comment on the matter, Chief Government Spokesperson Mike Mulongoti simply said the allegations were unfounded and described the PF as immoral and evil.
Mr Mulongoti who is also Campaign Manager for Acting President Rupiah Banda urged the PF to observe dignity in their campaigns and remain mute if they had no real issues to talk about.

what else do we expect to hear from mulongoti?? its same stories.
PF should know that MMD is a national party enjoying support from its citizens across the country.If i can mobilise good faith contributions for the party to the tune of US $ 1 million, what more of the campaign fundraising committee? Its not a regional party like PF dependent on laundered money from some White (Apatheid) South Africans to whom they have been mortgaging the mines.PF is a danger to regional stability, our foreign policy and unity.They are mortgaging the country to be a proxy state.

Lubinda has sunk too low in his expectation that MMD would struggle raising ZK 6 billion for an important bye election.For his information the party has fundraised far beyond the ZK 6 billion.He better campaign with that reality that this is not a bye-election of poverty.
Politicians, let’s play fair games on a level playing field. 12 days remaining before MMD gets booted out together with RB Toadface Banda and crew.

Ba kabolalala!
Where is my post?Are you guys censoring?
DONT WORRY ITS THE CHANGE FROM LPM FUNERAL AND ALL THOSE DONATIONS FROM WELL WISHERS CAN YOU IMAGINE INSTEAD OF GIVING DONATIONS TO THE WIDOW BAIBA AM SURE IT HAS NOT BEEN ACCOUNTED FOR
If the money that is suddenly made available during campaigns by a ruling party was availed in a ‘normal’ every day life, many a citizen’s life could have been made much much better. And the ruling party would have a lot to point at as their achievements and have it easy to win support.
Ba Sata when you come to power, use this plan. Fikatwafwa sana and PF will sail goodly in 2011.
#2 AND 3 THE PPL WHO USED TO FUNDRAISE HAVE SINCE LEFT mmd THIS MONEY IS FROM GOVT the rest of these members are so money hungry that they cant even think of mobilising resouces why ddnt MULoNGOTI tell lubinda if they have nothing to hide the source it cleary shows that its from the govt gone are the days when members showed commitment all these are chancers open your eyes and smell the coffee wamyalilwe blind loyalty
LT you have lost your ctedibility. Why have you blacked out my earlier submissions on the issue?
Seul le temps nous le dira! Merci et Bonne Chance a tous.
# 3 Pragmastist, you are still a piece of nothing, very old fashioned mentality. I don’t understand how you could bring in arguement of “colonial” and white people. This not time to be racist. You are retired, you should go back to Zambia.
# 14, very good, you are doing well in your homework in exercise 10 of book “Pierre e Sedu”. Your French is not worse than a grade 4’s.
PF guys you think MMD will openly disclose the source.Time wasting .
MMD started it by saying opp parties shud disclose who is funding them. Why has it become difficult for a democratic party as they call themselves to disclose the 6 billion issue?
VIVA RB!!!
What’s up LT??? still waiting for my postings!!!
WTF??????????
Tre bien!! Numero seize. Je suis agreable
Guys lekeni fiFrancais. Those who are complaining of censorship, there are certain words that LT has banned, if it is detected in your comment it won’t be posted. Even URLs i think.
PF let’s not be petty, MMD has big spending backers… let’s concentrate and sprint to the finish and prepare to form government in a couple weeks time.
Alors, je suis tres contente, viva PF!

So MMD was hiding so much money which they are just waiting amid so much perverty with doctors giving prescrptions to pentients to buy medicines for themselves. People of Zed, just imagine if RB had to rule this country what will happen. KK has even failed to give the nation the answer as to why RB was fired fro NamBoard. Pa bwatoooooooooooooo.
kkkkk
In NDOLA chifubu is a no go area for MMD. watch out mulongoti, ba OP nabasungana trying understand what has happen. Even in some work place they have employed some shushu in the name of trade union member going around that if you vote sata he will do no good to the company.
indian companies are busy funding them. check out these milling companies just this week.
MMD WILL NEVER STOP ON ITS CORRUPT PRACTICES. LETS ALL UNIT AND REMOVE THESE THIEVES FROM OFFICE. I DONT CARE WHO WINES BUT NOT MMD
Ba Banda you are telling us not to vote for opposition coz it will cost the country 500 billion,and yet you are also spending the huge amounts of money on useless things like chiteges and the vihecle you have just bought FTJ.Shame on you MMD.
Batwibila pafula. Lets kick these ‘ROBBERS’ out of gvt. Viva pabwato.
#19 waba eboloooooooooo nafi MMd, cause if you lose we will see to it that you die in jail
Out going HON. Minister, you didnt answer the question. Maybe I repeat it for you WHAT IS THE SOURCE OF THE K6 BILLION FOR THE COMPAIGN CHITENGE MATERIALS. Answer questions as they come your honour,if you continue with that type of arrogance, come 30/10 you will pack.
Who has the pfroof that the chitenges cost K6BILLION. In any case it is not MMD fault that you cant afford chitenjes or simple membership cards.
??? ??? ?? ?? ???,???? ?? ???..?? ?? bemba tribalist.pf have nothing to do and have no direction 4 there campaign.some members of parliament in luapula who are pf are supporting mmd,so sata said will fire them.????? ? ???????????????

fellas HH can make sure that every JIM & JACK can be able to afford beef
vote HH for cheap cheap meat
guys think like you gat a lil bit of wisdom
dnt be so shallow like the PF supporters!!
Lubinda is just petty. Who is funding PF. Who funded PF in 2006? Sata initially had his plane chartered by Katumbi with the support of chiluba. It is now that katumbi has withdrawn following the dissagreement between sata and chiluba. What is lubinda telling us? If sata wins with the support of katumbi, fellow bloggers you know what was going to be zambia’s economy. Nowonder this fellow is avoiding his real names. Lubinda’s father is scotish and his mother a toka leya. lubinda names comes because the birth attendant for his mother was lubinda.
41 no need to get personal,raise issues
# 42 you look blank, who between you and me is raising issues? the issue you dont understand is that what lubinda is complaining about is what sata did when he was in MMD. further Sata was/is being funded by dubious characters, like katumbi. have you forgotten about katumbi and his mission in zambia. i want to see your issues that you can raise yourself from this topic
Ba Martin na Imwe kanshi muli ba kopo.How does Katumbi fit in Satas Issues? don’t just yap say things evidence and put some Evidence.We know everything about Katumbi but don’t link it to the captain of the boat.
Martin People will not eat Lubinda s name.We need issues here

SHAME ON MMD
You PF Chaps R. Matahn Director finance bank gave you the money. It was not only you but also he gave more money to the MMD, and many other firms are still giving the MMD more cash, which there are also giving some few kwachas by the same firm. Just pray to our living God if Sata is a God given leader then he will rule. You should stop insulting each other, you may cause bad lucky on Sata

Jamani i say munaogaya luga nyinge hapa blogg.
Son pas mauvais, français et Swahili est de bons langues.
people i do think we need transparency if the MMD say that that the presidential candidate of of the ruling party gets money from government as entitlement they should not worry at all they should come out and say how much is to be spent. looking at what Mulongoti has said it seems to me that there guilty and so he is avoiding the question and buyig time to reach election time and he feels he wont be answerable.
Tenha uns amigos maravilhosos de dia. Agradece (have a wonderful day friends)

What is K6 billion to a party like MMD which has been in existance for over 15 years.PF lets talk about rear issues, not always complaining about what the other parties are doing.This time around is SATA not going to go to MALAWI to see his TAIWANIS friends?VIVA HHHH
VIVA RB. THE BOAT IS SINKING. THIS IS THE LAST TIME SATA IS PARTICIPATING IN HIS LOSING GAME AND WILL HANG HIS BOOTS
In his book Central Africa: The former British states (p. 65) Gann wrote: “One party commanded by Chief Mpezeni moved westward, but for the first time the Ngoni met a warrior people who matched their valour — the Bemba. Blood-thirsty raiders, they wielded muskets supplied by Muslim traders; the Ngoni were defeated and finally settled in what is now Southeastern Zambia.” Thus the Ngoni are a defeated peole regardless what Rupiah Banda does.
In his book An Introduction to the History of Central Africa (p. 68) Wills identified the Ngoni as follows: “The Ngoni speak the tongues of the peoles whom they conquered — Tumbuka, Nsenga, Cewa, Mang’anja and Yao.” But the Ngoni as indicated were also defeated by the Bemba.
hi pipo…lets NOT insult each other…lets look @ the ryt candidate…ILIKO TRICKY pa ZED zoona..Sata has got own mistakes/sins…RB has got his own mistakes/sins…HH has his own mistakes/sins…IN MY OPINION ZAMBIA HAS NO CREDIBLE LEADER RIGHT NOW…LETS JUST PRAY FOR PEACE AFTER THE ELECTIONS…Ba RB ur DULL SHREK,Sata ur an ILLITERATE SNAKE,HH ur a STINGY CROOK…please God Be with Zambia.
