President Michael Sata has said that he is disappointed with the failure by Inspector General of police to take action on people who are inciting to create a state within a state in Western Province.
Mr. Sata has also directed the security wings in the country to intervene in the matter in which Dr. Nevers Mumba is allegedly inciting other pastors on the copperbelt to lie over the constitution.
The president said that he was a disappointed commander- in-chief because the police is aware that people in western province are being incited to create a state within a state but are not doing anything about it.
President Sata said that some people in western province have appointed a prime minister and are looking for offices to start running a country yet the police are not doing anything about it.
Mr. Sata said that he does not want to involve the Zambia Army because the police are capable of resolving the problem. He has however, called on defense forces to assist each other in preventing an eminent crime.
Mr. Sata said that the appointment of a prime minister in western province and the spreading of lies by Dr. Nevers Mumba that the PF government intends to include homosexuality in the new constitution is a serious crime.
He further called on security forces in the country to cooperate and look into the two issues before the situation gets out of hand stating that prevention is better that cure.
Mr. Sata has also advised Dr. Mumba to concentrate on justifying how he abused resources in Canada instead of using innocent people to incite confusion.
QFM’s Namasiku Njovu reports that the president was speaking in Kabwe this morning during the commissioning parade of 164 officer cadets.
And army commander, Lieutenant General Paul Mihova has cautioned the cadets to be professional and not to involve themselves in partisan politics.

General Mihova reminded the cadets that their role is to support the government of the day and uphold the constitution of the land.
Meanwhile, MMD presidential Candidate Never Mumba has declined to comment on the allegations by the Zambian government that he used the government’s name to raise money for a Zambian association in Canada while serving as High Commissioner.
Dr. Mumba has has told QFM News that he is not aware of the allegations made by the foreign affairs minister Chishimba Kambwili.
But when briefed that the yesterday Mr. Kambwili challenged him to explain why he had used the government letter heads to raise money from the cooperating partners the time he was an envoy in Canada, Dr. Mumba said the allegations were not worth his response.
Dr Mumba has also refused to comment on the allegations by President Michael Sata that he is inciting Pastors on the copperbelt by telling lies that the PF Government wants to include homosexuality in the new constitution.
However, Dr. Mumba stated that he will however, issue a comprehensive statement on the many other allegations that have been leveled against him soon. Dr. Mumba was speaking to QFM news in a telephone interview.
QFM
Does the President have to comment on any intelligence information he receives???
What a president we have! Its a shame to Zambian to have a president who thrive on rumours without facts. And what about your 90days promises mr president? What did you promise westerners? Please get to work.
Sounds serious now. Rupiah caged them but you released them.
Well Constable Sata, You promised them Restoration of Barotseland within 90 days and The People rewarded you by giving your party two seats.
The 90 days is over. Liar Liar Liar, it is time for you to pay now
What is the meaning of embattled? I think someone is slowly becoming embattled now.
Yaba! Can I say “we told you so”? The president is going to comment on every single thing that happens? Even rumours? That Nevers is spreading lies? Come on now. You just got elected and you’re spending most of your time worried about the opposition. Does it matter that Nevers is lying about (if in fact he is). He is the one that stands to lose credibility with the people he’s lying to if the such clauses do not appear in the constitution. As for the Barotse people, just give a directive and forget about it. In no time your words will be meaningless because of much way too many trivial pronouncements.
It’s as though Nevers is president and Sata is attacking the incumbent. If there is any merit to the allegations (or criminality) that can be ascribed to whatever Nevers did, let the law take its course. Please don’t try to unduly influence the police and courts. We’ve seen how much time has been wasted in previous administrations on wild goose chases that led nowhere.
IF THIS IS TRUE, THEN I WONDER WHAT KIND OF A CHRISTIAN NEVERS IS! IS IT THE NEED FOR POWER WHICH CAN LEAD HIM TO BEGIN SUCH A DELICATE THING. AS MUCH AS I KNOW HE IS LEADING PEOPLE TO DEATH.
Sata, i dont know what to say to you, but i think u r one very shallow minded chap! it is not last year, but this year before u became president that u promosed Zambians from Western province that u wil honour the 1964 Barotse Agreement! unless u r telling us that u dint read the contents of the Agreement before u promised?
We told u, that RD ws right to cage those calling for cessation! but u typical of your bootlicking crowd pulling mindset, u promised Zambians anything they wanted to hear!!
You promised alone, and alone your wil pay for your sins! RB sent the police now u wna send the Zambia Army? u r wicked Mr. Presido, very wicked!!!!
My felow Lozi brothers, please keep calling for Cessation, Sata promised, let him fuflfil! if it means killing all of u Army, let him do it!!
imwe ba sata concentrate on building zambia instead of uttering anything,you are embarrancing us.work to bring development not just accusing and firing workers
nevers mumba should be real, is he a politician,entertainer or a christian,wow
The Pathetic Front(PF) lied about alot of things god help us,they have turned our city streets into markets.stolen our money with useless commissions,every day the police are working ;like zombies witch haunting innocent citizens with trumpet up charges with completely no facts Zambia is slowly being run communist dictatorship.VIVA BAROTSE LAND(KI-NAKO)
I now believe what many pipo say. We have a whistle blower in state house. Nevers Mumba denied having gone to copperbelt since his arrival from canada. The Lozi pipo are serious with the Agreement thing. RB tried to discipline them, but Sata intervened with his sweet talk. See now…….kekekekek hahahahahah.
Op pliz u have come to know wat type of president we have mind ur int briefs or just resort to briefing the veep on some issues its embarasing us to see a presido waffling everytime
Comrades, I cant open WD site. Why? Removed from air waves or what?
Mwisho. I agree with you. I was also wondering what is happening to WD, because today is the third day.
Now is the time for the govt to crash this Lozi rubbish once and for all, only stiff punishment will teach these selfish Lozi trouble makers a lesson, HE MCS is treating them like humans they take his kindness for a weakness , they need an iron fist to treat them like the animals simple
MR Sata you dont have the truth in you. it was your promise why should start accusing the police
and Dr mumba over your failure.
mwisho/bakateka@13/14 ;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;; TONGA WD is up and running trot along now, go and have your fix.
MUMBWE AITILE IMPASHI……
Bakateka and Mwisho if u are in a parastatal company just know that zambian watchdog has been blocked. Ask anyone at a company like zesco, u can access any blogging site but not ZWD, maybe it is X-rated.
#17 you are indeed out of your mind. I do not see how a well established person upstairs would say and celebrate with your utteruses. MY dear friend you may wanna mourn for your words are of bad taste and its not fun that the issue has gone to that extent. There will be blood shed and not only for the Lozy pipo but all. Remember those guys are scatered throught out Zed and some have intermarried with other tribes. Shame that you still hold your words and print joyfully.
Damn What a leader we have that worries himself so much about spreading rumors.The same way the MMD use to feel when you were opposing them is now how you feeling now that Mr Nevers Mumba is opposing you.
He never attacks Mutati or any other MMD Presidency aspiring candidate. WHY? If MMD want to get back into government, they must have Nevers for President. SATA KNOWS THE DANGER.
Yaaaa, what about the Malaysia 2010 business round table with money sourced by Chibwa feom London. Kambwili anweer. We Zambians living in Kuala Lumpur got to know about it. Go to Zambia emassy reception, there is newletter signed by the ambasssdor. Why Nevers alone.
ITVSEEMS MOST OF YOU BLOGGERS HAVE ISSUES WITH NEVERS MUMBA. EVEN WHEN WHAT IS WRITTEN IS NOT SENSIBLE. YOU ARE STILL CONDEMNING HIM. BETTER QUESTION THE PRESIDENT’S STATEMENT. THE MAN IS OVER 70 & IT APPEARS TO ME HE STILL WANTS ANOTHER TERM.
I WAS LOOKING FORWARD TO THIS CHANGE BUT I AM SO DISSAPPOINTED AT THE CONFUSSION PF HAS CREATED SO FAR. SATA DOES NOT EXPECT THE POLICY TO TAKE CONTROL OF STTRATEGIC ISSUES AFFECTING THE NATION.
Discipline is essential in any human field of specialization.If what has been reported is true, the law must take its’ course.This rubbish of taking Zambians for granted must come to an end.Anybody causing unnecessary tension must answer before the law.Pastors, do not disgrace the ministry of God for your own selfish reasons.You will regret your actions very soon.
THERE is an unexplained wonder of political history where the people like Sata with a track record of violence, he was ready to go to war over September elections and destroy millions of lives, and he is now the most vocal in talking about peace, human rights and the protection of civilians from attacks. Sata‘s history is indelible and cannot be denied or wished away. Cheering the monster in the house is quite understandable when it is coming from individuals with psychological problems emanating from the effects of poverty and tribalism. What we are seeing from Chilaizya and Mmembe is a socially constructed mental disorder. Nevers Mumba is the only credible MMD candidate.
Watchdog has been removed/burnished bcos of inciting violence and unresponsible report!?
I am not sure why some people are failing to access the WD. Just checked and it’s up and running.
Now this is becoming serious.Am scared for my country.
I smell a rat, These bloggers will lead lusakatimes to be dead just like WD.Because most of these cofussions and comments has nothing to do with the goverment or the president.
So RB was right to arrest the perpetrators of violence but this *****a released them , now he wants them caged again.
This is the time for BRE and the Nkoya Royal Establishment (NRE)to come to the negotiating table with the PF administration to find a peaceful solution to the political problems within the region.
We the Nkoya Nationalists have already made our position clear on this matter. We believe part of the Solution is to create Kafue Province as it is democratic, fair and representative.
President Sata is a listening leader and all his administration needs are peaceful solutions that can be accepted and supported by all Zambians.
Zambia as a country is bigger than all of us. Even if Sata was Lozi, he would not support the BA64 because it is based on falsehoods.
It is better to enter into fresh talks on the matter and work out a peaceful win – win solution.
People must know that there are no winners in any war, everybody loses in one form or another.
It is much easier to start a war but very difficult to find peace.
We should not take the peace that we enjoy in the country for granted because peace is priceless, you can not add value on it. We enjoy peace even though we have some disagreements and misunderstandings but we believe that we can overcome all this through peaceful talks.
Zambia is bigger than all these small issues that some people are trying to exaggerate and there is no way we can fail to have a domestic home grown solution that is accepted by all.
Peace is always the answer.
Meditate peacefully over this issue and the solution will be found.
Let us all enter the new year with hope and love and unity among all citizens, Zambia is all we have and we have to protect it jealously.
Viva Kafue Province, Viva Zambia, Viva Peace
Dear Zambians please learn to ignore the nonsense that comes from Sata’s mouth. Sata has no credibility. He is a proven liar. He wont change at that age (74) of his. In the American diplomatic cables (weakleaks) the ex US Ambassador to Zambia Michael koplovisky described Sata as someone who has no unwavering commitment to truth ( diplomatic speak for a LIAR). As a congenital liar Sata worsened his condition by inhaling weed! Weed does have life long lasting effects on the brain. With his advanced age you have a whamy combination of dementia, and psychedelic effects of weed and the resultant hallucinations. It is higly likely that the man has little green men in his head and they are constantly telling him stories!
RB’s words describing Sata:’Mambala wakanthu!’
Looks like nevers is haunting someone.If i was in mmd this gives me a sign who gives pf nightmare.Thats the one to pick.Viva Nevers.
# 36 Sharp Shooter you have cracked my libs
Dr Mumba has been in Lusaka ever since he came. It is sad to see the entire president of a country peddling lies in front of the commanders of the security forces- the symbols of our national security. Why say Nevers Mumba is inciting pastors in Copperbelt when the man has not left Lusaka ever since he came?? We have serious problems in this country.
Mr president you are so worried about the opposition than governing the country. Indeed it’s now like Nevers is the president and Sata is the opposition. Work on your 90 days promise,it’s not too late.
Sata is a HUGE disappointment and he does not behave like a president. Oh well! Serves us right. You cannot teach an old dog new tricks. The man is 74. He has been the biggest jester this side of the equator. People in Uganda were jubilant and rejoiced when Idi Amin overthrew Obote. Posterity judged them harshly. We had no choice, it was either RB and his greedy sons or Satana. We went with Satana. My question is, “Where have all the young men gone? The reasonable, sober strategists have all disappeared leaving us with this monkey business. Shame!
I wonder why mr sata fear never mumba
Take it to the left, take it to the right, complain about MMD – 5 years later, nothing has been done.
WD is working just fine in australia
tell the police what to do since you are the commander-in-chief. We do not want to hear your nonsense any more. You want other people to be blamed if anyone died when police move in. When councils took action against vendors you intervened, you do it with Lozis since they gave you votes. You have lozis in your cabinet, ask them what lozis want.
H.E President Kachepa doing what he knows best – peddling rumours. Pathetic!
Pipo in western province were screwed and you laugh when the southern holds its centre. Its exactly what UPND is telling pipo that PF has used you and its time for the dumpimg …. good for u. Next time you will open your eyes.
What is there to moderate when all I am saying is that someone is peddling rumours/lies?
There seems to be a pattern of behavior on these blogs. If one nitwit sounds negative, everyone follows suit. It is like no one has a brain to think differently. What a shame!
Your exellency you are doing a fantastic job, enjoy your first xmas in state house stay blessed.,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,, Even if HE MCS stays only one term as President it makes me and well meaning Zambians very very Happy. How unhappy for the Sata haters including tonga WD How unhappy it makes you UNHAPPY l am loving this…watching you vomiting and swamped in you own hatred
In case you guys don’t know, politics is a game and the smart ones win. Sata is simply good at this game and he’ll continue playing his game to continue being in office. Barotse was part of his game and so is this regionalism you’re seing. It’s just a game and the best player wins.
Mr Sata should be disappointed with himself and not let us know that Police are to blame. You promised Western province people with poulist statement of restoring BRE agreement without examining implications of it. Mr Sata will leave a legacy of failure to Western province people because of your own making. Do not blame other people of many failures that will be your characteristic rule,- FAILURE.
#52, Politics has to do with people’s lives and should never be treated as a game, but you are right that is exactly what PF is doing.
i have been wondering if some of the statements attributed to the holder of office number one in the land are true. if they happen to be true then its so unfortunate. a father in a family cannot be fighting his own children like this. some of the statements sound as if they are coming from an opposition leader not a leader of the nation. cry my beloved country, that is the change we cried for.
anyway, happy xtmas dear bloggers.
This President sata seems not to haveanthinh to deliver for the people of Zambia. why should he be scared of nevers Mumba. EEEeh guys stan when he was in opposition he too made a lot of noise on lupiah so the same will be felt in his government. came on nervers go on you are at liberty to speak your mind off. Zambia is a democratic country mind u. yes if lozis want to do what happend during lupia time let them ahead. i say so because Sata Micheal supported this when he was in opposition. bythe way mr sata the position of a prime minister has been existing for years, it seems you dont know the history of Zambian culture. go to any school going chap will tell you history iwe police man. shup and go to hell.
ONE ADVICE TO THE PF GOVT IS THAT THE GOVT SHOULD START PROSECUTING WRONG DOERS IN RB’s govt. OTERWISE IT WILL SOON BE LIKE FTJ’s CASE WHERE OFFENDERS WILL START ORGANISING DISTABANCES IN THE COUNTRY MAKING IT INCREASINGLY DIFFICULTY TO GOVERN AS MOST OF THE RESOURCES WILL BE CHANNELED INTO DEALING WITH THE UPRISINGS WHICH WILL BE INCITED BY WRONG DOERS TO PROLONG OR ALTOGETHER DETRACT ATTENTION FROM BEING PROSECUTED AND JAILED. MIND YOU, ‘JUSTICE DELAYED IS JUSTICE DENIED’
MWANAWASA, EVEN TOOK HIS LIFE TIME- EVEN THEN CHILUBA WAS NOT PROSECUTED AND IN THE PRCESS HE STARTED FEELING INNOCENT AND PEOPLE ALSO STARTED FEELING SIMPATHETIC ABOUT HIM. MY ONLY ADVICE TO THE PF GOVT IS- QUICKLY, PROSECUTE THESE CULPRITS BEFORE THEY GAIN GROUND. THEY EVEN KNOW THAT THEY ARE SUPPOSED TO BE IN JAIL. BUT THEY ARE SUPRISED AND CAN’T BELIEVE THEIR LUCKY THEY OUTSIDE OF JAIL. THESE FORMER LEADERS ARE TROUBLE MAKERS AND TEY WIL CONTINUE TO BE.
The case of Barotseland is one on which the principal stakeholders: President Sata, Hon. Inonge Wina, the Catholic Church and Milupi should discuss at some quiet Lodge in the Liuwa National Park. The Barotseland saga has been fermenting for a long time with the blessing of the Catholics. May be at this juncture when confusion is just simmering, there is need for the United Nations to develop a special curriculum where new Presidents the World over are given tuition on the concepts of governance to avoid serious infringements of human rignts that have sought to drive Taylor of Liberia and the Sudanian President to the Hague. Catastrophy can be prevented in Zambia. Apparently, Sata initiated, promoted and nurtured the problem of Barotseland for his perceived short-term political gains.
“Peter” @ says #s 58 & 59, must be reminded that the same President of his (Sata) released a group of legally convicted group of Mongu rioters. Sata also boosted the morales of the people seeking an independent state of Barotseland by merely setting up a Commission of Enquiry into the Mongu riots just to gain cheap support for a temporary period. Let us just accept that there is total CONFUSION iin PF Party and its Govt. Zambia has just witnessed the PF “achievements” in its 1st 90-days. Guy Scott is even lammenting on another series of 90-days programs in future. Some PF dreams are exploding on their very faces. The blames are being shifted to IG Malama – soon to overflow on his Ministers. God forbid.
if you want kill all the lozi speaking people of barotseland nif u are excited of shedding blood.if that happens.that bwill be a ligitimate ground ffor the US,BRTAIN FRANCE,C/WEALTH COUTRIES to protect the barotse people becoz their so called zambian brothers will have failed to protcet them.why can thes dull pipo not learn from swaziland and lethoto,zanzibar.The great leaders off those contries solved the issies withiout shedding of blood.barotse always had prime minister(nGAMBELA)and all the tenants of the state.My friends,how many rfugee camps are in barotseland.how many colleges.when it comes to war ZED has no xpirienc bcoz thy hav nevr won any war.That is why they would beat their chests when th shoot at an unarmd villager.it can be a rud shok when the fighting shifts to rail line.
chokwe,mbunda,luvale,kwangwa,totela,mbowe,njengo,nkoya,shanjo etc are all lozi speaking tribes of greater barotseland and will not allow manyukunyuku to see their blood ties with their lunda,balovale and tonga comrades severed.look how they hav silenced the solis in lusaka .that wont happen in balovale, and tonga lands.INFACT bemba will be abolished in those areas.
Its quiet comfusin wich side sata is interms of western province I for sure stand to be corrcted wen I say rb handled the matter in accodance with the law..today mr sata has even mentioned the soldiers for wat,my lozi freinds be careful cos we told you.
u pipo leave the president alone let him do his thing.:-\”
Merry Christmas- Michael Sata- See RB said, a president should have grade 12 certificate. People thought it was a move to stop Sata.
Yesterday, while I was at work, my sister stole my iPad and tested to see if it can survive a thirty foot drop, just so she can be a youtube sensation. My apple ipad is now broken and she has 83 views. I know this is completely off topic but I had to share it with someone!
