Mapatizya Member of Parliament, Ackson Sejani has charged that the close relationship between president, Rupiah Banda and second republican president, Dr Fredrick Chiluba will greatly cost the nation.
Mr. Sejani said President Banda should realize that Zambians are not interested in his relationship with Dr. Chiluba.
He said Dr. Chiluba’s alleged corrupt background leaves much to be desired and that it worries Zambians to see the head state have a close relationship with the former president.
Mr . Sejani e noted that the close relationship between president Banda and Dr Chiluba clearly demonstrates that the MMD government is no longer interested in fighting corruption and is ready to embrace people accused of plundering the nation’s resources.
He said it is evident that president Banda does not want to deal with the corruption in the government despite promising to uphold the legacy of his late predecessor Levy Mwanawasa.

Dont worry Mr Sejani, it wont cost Zambia it will cost them (Chiluba and RB) because Zambia has no money to pay for that cost.
Kafupi is scratching RB’S Back kaili ewamupuswishe but we all know 2011 is nearing, we gona vote wisely and hope this president who is only popular in rural areas is voted out mukamonako!!
Why are people wasting time on characters like numbered Kafupi? His days are numbered
Sejani,
RB does not need to share the hatred, jealous and malice of those who are breeding with their own natural hatred. He does not need either to get approval of hate groups to embrace humanity and his own citizens.
RB is president of the blind, rich, poor, lame, able bodied professionals, students, farmers and prisoners. He is not President of hate Groups but peace, healing and restoration in the land. RB does not serve at the discretion of hate groups but the constitution. His big constituency is Zambia and not just mapatizya or indeed hate groups where violent Sejani belongs to.
RB as a Christian president believes in the virtues of love and national harmony with all. He believes in the 70*70 biblical principles. If there is any constitutional breach he has made, initiate the failed impeachment against him now instead of burning in vanity. Democracy has functional safety valves and tools of dissatisfaction.
Keep and die with your hatred to yourself. RB is head of state over all he cannot afford to dress up your hatred and internal strife.
It has actually already costed him and MMD popularity. Only ignorant and MMD people can vote for them again
RB is so hateful that he had to accuse Post reporter of peddling porno. What else can one be described.
This paints a very dirty picture for everyone involved. You cannot side with an obvoius thief, a fornication and adulterer, a wife grabber, who does not want to repent. God only forgives if we humble ourselves and repent of our sinful ways – this chiluba is and has not done. May he burn in hell!
# 8 did you mean “a fornicator” or “a fornication” means something else in the nyele world?
RB is the most dull old man i have ever come accross. It really surprises me what makes him think he ll become popular by hanging out with that short thief. Has he taken time to guage the feelings of Zambians towards Chiluba?
The only way he can win next year’s elections is thru rigging but days of rigging are also numbered. The MMD wont remain in power for good. If he continues on this path, he ll join FTJ on the court queues once he gets out of power. Useless man!
Funny enough the President hasn’t responded on this friendship…i stand to be corrected i reckon?! Amazing thing this Zambian Democracy!
Birds of the same furthers flock together. So is Chiluba & RB. They will pay the price one day.
Kafupi is a con man. The only worry I have is why are people that have learned advisors being conned by FTJ Don Chichi??? Why??? RB is being forced by Chiluba to endorse the rebel Mps’ ( chiluba’s henchment) so that they are adapted in Luapula on MMD ticket. The same thing he used to force Ba Sata to adapt them. The reason ka Chiluba does this is to have a golden voice in MMD NEC, those to tell him what is happening and also the same pipo will be talking on his behalf. Now Chiluba is trying to run a parrarel political system within MMD. This is very nice to us the pact members, very welcome.
I’ve just vomited nyama soya after reading a blog by Sinya Citizen. God can forgive but the consquences has to follow. Just like pregnance Lesa will forgive but will not terminate your baby so is kafupi.
RB required a thief to learn how to steal as well. How do justify that!
Thanx to LT. Atleast we are now somehow experiencing balanced coverage. I believe you will continue to make the news more interesting by also capturing some stories from those you dont seem to like. But for public opinion please do it for us. Otherwise it’s a popular platform to debate national issues.
No need to determine Rb`s friends. RB has been one of the worst presidents Africa has ever seen and the only honourable thing we can do as Zambians is to give RB the boot come 2011.Can any one please tell us why Africa is still clinging on to pensioners as presidents?
Senior Citizen, A simple survey from this blog, out of the already posted blog MMD is going. Therefore stop wasting your time. There are 15 postings, 11 tells me they back the PACT,2 are neutral and the other two from you are for MMD.
I hate chiluba, just the mention of his name makes me sick. The man is nothing but a conman, a thief, wife snatcher. It is surprising that RB has embraced a crook, his friendship with this small thing will negatively affect his election.
Jala***o,
You must be an under 5 to take the trolling of self disfranchised armchair critics as the electoral disposition. Ask MrK here who has been trolling since 2000 24/7 for Mazoka then switched to Tilyenji 2 years later turned into HH’s troll only to end up with Sata.If internet trolling was a voter’s voice Mwanawasa wouldn’t have been President in 2002 considering similar throwing you are counting on.
PETROL prices are coming down in a huge boost for millions of motorists.
Supermarket giant ASDA is shaving 2p off the price of unleaded fuel across the UK — taking the pump price to 115.9p per litre.
A penny is also coming off diesel.
They are thought to be the first cuts at the pumps in almost three months.
It came as the AA slammed oil giants and supermarkets for failing to pass on a recent fall in the wholesale price on world markets.
David Miles, Asda commercial director, said: “Yet again, Asda is leading UK fuel prices down. Motorists will be relieved commodity prices are coming down and as always we are the first to reflect falling costs in our prices at the pump.”
If one person calls you a horse – ignore them
If ten people call you a horse – its time to go shopping for a saddle
RB is a stubborn old fool.
chilu will definitely pay and o these sympathisers we see on the blog wont help.come next yr zambians will squeeze this gvnt out and bring in the opposition and chilu will bcome sick again. for now we wish him luck.
:d/One President at a time,Zambia chalo chesu,leav RB,alone Go 2011 MMD
On “Mr . Sejani e noted that the close relationship between president Banda and Dr Chiluba clearly demonstrates that the MMD government is no longer interested in fighting corruption and is ready to embrace people accused of plundering the nation’s resources” this is very true and of concern to me as a wellmeaning Zambian.
I hope Mr President RB Band will change his current behaviour for the better.
Be blest all.

Patriot, Iam not an armchair critics. I am a very active voter and what I said is what is happening at the grassroot. I am posting from Chingola though the blog is showing a different flag and not a Zambian one.
Thanx

How is Chingola doing? Kabundi Road. I had some good times in that town!
Actually lost my virginity there, in some tall grass
Honestly, it seems to me that Mr Sejani is not hearing himself. If there are any individuals that are costing this country, he ranks among them. These are guys that have never in their political lives stood up for Zambia in terms of pushing a positive agenda. At his age he aught to have known by now that mere moving from one president to another has not helped this country. We have always and for a long time ignored what critical and fundamental aspects of positive change are. Mr. Sejani it is not just removing RB and replacing him with HH or Sata that will cut it for Zambia but addressing the fundamental issues.It is your type that have silenced noble men whom this country need desperately. 2bcntd
Chieftainess Mwenda Hails RB
CHIEFTAINESS Mwenda of the Tonga-speaking people in Chikankata has commended President Rupiah Banda’s Government for implementing policies aimed at reducing poverty in rural areas.
Chieftainess Mwenda said the Government was currently doing a good job.
Speaking at the weekend in Mazabuka, Chieftainess Mwenda said the Government was committed to uplifting the living standards of the vulnerable groups in society.
The traditional leader made the remarks during the closure of a one-week workshop organised by the Zambia Development Agency (ZDA) on Women Entrepreneurship Development and Gender Equality at Chikankata Seminar Centre.
Chieftainess Mwenda commended the Government for its commitment to reducing poverty in the country.
She said poverty could not be fought using bare hands saying it was important to equip the women with various skills so that they could also participate in the economic development.
Chieftainess Mwenda also commended men who supported women initiatives which were aimed at empowering them.
“Once you train a woman, it means the whole village is educated. GIDD (Gender in Development Division) should double its efforts in empowering the women as this will help fight poverty,” she said.
She urged the women to stay away from bad vices which hindered them from taking part in the development of the nation saying the womenfolk needed to work hard.
Closing the workshop, Southern Province Permanent Secretary Gladys Kristafor said the Government stood ready to support all development efforts that had a bearing on uplifting people’s living standards.
She called on traditional leaders to work with the Government in order to up lift the living standards of all Zambians.
She also commended the ZDA and GIDD for working in partnership in order to enhance growth for women entrepreneurship development.
“It is the policy of Government to encourage cooperation among its agencies and departments in the delivery of various services to its citizens,” she said.
Ms Kristafor said the Government in both the Fifth National Development Plan (FNDP) and the Vision 2030 had embraced the promotion and development of micro, small and medium enterprises as being among the priority sectors.
Ms Kristafor said the sector had greater potential to contribute significantly to economic growth through value addition and exports.
She said economic growth subsequently had the benefit of employment creation, which contributed to poverty reduction.
#6 the way the PACT is carrying on, be aware that the ignorant may be in the majority.
Ackson Sejani of the Mapatizya formula fame, well spoken. But the tragedy is that Mr Sejani is simply trying to gain political mileage, not that he would not do similar things if he were in power. You see even if HH was Mr Clean, he would not be able to control the rot from the likes of Mr Sejani who would form the bulk of his cabinet. If we assume that Mr HH will be president some day, he would rely on these same charlatans to put him in power, and everybody knows how politicians scratch each others’ backs. For example, isn’t this the same Sejani who put HH in control of UPND on the “Tonga for president” ticket? Has HH managed to cage him? NO, and he is not even state president yet.
Go Zambia Go!!! Where? ‘We never new that we where poor until someone told us’. What is poverty? or what is development? if you can answer these questions with ease then you will be able to know whether there is something wrong in Zambia.
Out of Context I know. But wise people learn from anything. Hahahaha!
SOME Zambians living in Swaziland have resolved to travel home to register as voters in next year’s general elections in which they have pledged to support President Banda. “We have been following what is happening in our country and owing to the discussions we have had with different people, especially the youth, most of them have resolved to support President Banda and the MMD in the coming elections.
If Zambians are not interested in RB’s friendship with Chiluba, why are you concerned as a UPND MP? You should actually rejoice in it because it means that your party will be ,ore popular. Whoever becomes a President in Zambia, should bear in mind that they will also become mere citizens after their term, and the measure they mete out will be dealt to them too. Chiluba is lucky that after being a pariah with LPM, he now has a person who relates to him. RB will not live as long as younger President will after he ceases to be President, under natural circumstances, so there will be plenty of time for a younger former President to face the music. The nation should be grateful that RB is setting a different precedent.
Mr.Sejani, the next time you open your mouth to speak please I request you in the name of a bonafide elecorate to start inspiring hope.I want to encouareg RB to stay focused and be firm.RB one of your responsibilities to the country is to safeguard the peace that the vast majority of Zambians cherish. Do not allow Mr. Sejani and others to plunge this country into chaos. Watch them closely as their interest is not Zambia but themselves.Restrict the Mapatizya formular to Mapatizya. In the abscence of meaningful blueprint refer #27.I urge discerning voters to stay put with RB. The Meembe way of doing things has not yielded much. Lets begin engaging RB now and may we could achieve what we failed to achieve with the highly publicised “corruption fighting “president. NOTE RB is better than…
# 37. I share the drift.
True Sejani!may stop aid from trickling down.
Sejani is just hungry.Meet him now and see how hunger has quickly trippled his age. Muleke ubuhule wamapoliks ba sejani. Watched you kneeling before late LPM denouncing Upnd and praising MMD!!.NZala badaala haz made you a foolish man today.Unfortunately you enjoy your foolish role without realising it.What a shame bwana
