Former first Lady Maureen Mwanawasa has apologized unreservedly to the Zambian people and the Government for what she terms as the misunderstanding that has been caused through an interview she gave to the BBC.
Former first Lady Maureen Mwanawasa has apologized unreservedly to the Zambians and the government for what she terms as the misunderstanding that has been caused through an interview she gave to the BBC.
In a statement released to Qfm today following Government’s displeasure at her recent interview with the BBC, Mrs Mwanawasa said she has never requested government to increase her retirement package.
Mrs Mwanawasa explained that she decided to go back to her legal profession and to continue working to meet the needs of her family especially their education.
“I have always and will always treat the gesture by government to provide her with the retirement package as a privilege and not as a right, which she appreciates and is grateful for and that it is incumbent upon her to fend for her family,’ Mrs Mwanawasa said.
She said that the BBC interview was not an isolated incident as has been portrayed that she gave an opinion to a foreign media.

The former first lady noted that she is not a selfish person as some section of the society would like to portray and that she takes the government statutory provision as a privilege and not as a right, adding that she cannot disparage the same when she is fully aware of the sufferings of many Zambian.
Mrs Mwanawasa has since assured the public that she would not issue any further comments on issues regarding the demise of her late husband but will find a way to amicably discuss with the Government.

Below is the Interview the Former first Lady Maureen Mwanawasa gave to BBC
did I know she was a doctor too. Nashala neka
Apology accepted, Madam!!!!!!
Money is never enough. Maureen has one focused, Get married or stay Single. Perhaps move into Politics and Become Ellen Johnson-Sirleaf of Zambia
There was no other option but to apologise.I listened to the interview on youtube,it was insulting to Zambians to say the least.However the apology is very much accepted mama.
On my own behalf and on behalf of all progressive MMD patriots on the Internet, I wish to say that your apology has been fully accepted and am sure you will get the official acceptance from the MMD leadership on the ground. Continue your hard work and good work you are doing Madam, and do not let the opposition forces to use and abuse the legacy of our gallant founder member and great party leader the late Levy Patrick Mwanawasa SC. MHSRIP, a true son of the land called Zambia.
there we go again,as the saying goes to err is human but to forgive is divine,so we accept…………..but what exactly did she want i do not get? :-w:-w:-w:-w:-w:-w
tel her to come so dat i give her a hard one !! useless Maureen .
awe chi suma jelous down bane but ba madamu vandi she is better bane. elo na sister wava madamu musuma bane. nalilyapo napena but aliisheva madamu. maureen i think shikapwasha is the best for her. any thots bane? deuces:)>-
Moreen your apology is accepted, but u need sam1 to ride u so that yo body pressure doesnt coz u 2 make mistakes.
That’s good she should find a way to amicably discuss with the govt on issues related to the demise of her husband.
Well-it is human to error-Just be careful next time.Zambians should not be taken for granted this country is not only yours but for us all
To err is human, so is to forgive. Apology accepted Dr Mwanawasa, let’s move on with our task of developing our beloved and only country.
hahahahaha so all u zambians are fooled again, apology???? ask yourself how much that apology cos the tax payer, do you think mrs mwanawasa is the woman to apologize for free, she is a lawyer!!!! a plea bargain was reached, the state slready paid her increments and this is the drama for the foolish zambians….. better vote for the Tonga Bull or else
the real maureen kakubo gets excited to be on bbc and then blabbers stuff she should not dare talk about. now fearful of more exposure. look how much money she has received from the zambian people what an ungrateful harlot. she has been undressed naked by Ronnie her own relative and now she is shamed into apologising. she is not sure of herself. so what about the hubby’s death? does she still want an inquiry? I am sure she saw the response of people on the blogs and got scared
we have had enough of her nonsense
tulatasha Ba Maureen- Mwikalapatalala Mwine apatalalika-do not talk too much just do your work and no one will say bad agianst you.
Moreen need to calm down. We all know that she wants to context presido.. but keeps making silly public mistakes. In politics, one wrong move and it is game over…it could be probably over to Morren
numbala 13, ati shani iwe! nawukwate point mune. so nga valichi solva na top dollar ninshi chi shikapwasha chalilyapo tefyo? deuces yo ka spoilt chengelo boy but ine nali pa international school of south africa mune deuces wawumfwa?:)>-
I said it!there you are!please check my posting on # 67 on the other thread where Shikapwasha is talking about Maureen. Fye bakalamba tatupusa akebo,tupusa akabwe ! Baiche mwe ma bloggers muleteekanya mwebaana sure!
Amazing stuff this. What a turn around! Is she really normal?
# 17 you understand exactly, shikapwasha and maureen can not be at loggerheads and maureen take orders or apologize because of shikapwasha statement. very simple math here, maureen needs $100K, she tells RB, RB says no, maureen goes to shikapwasha, shikapwasha says go to foreign media, ask for $250K. RB gets worried asks shikapwasha what to do, shikapwasha tells RB to settlle with $150K and maureen will apologise for stmts. so maureen gets her 100K and shikapwasha gets his $50K commission. thieves
Walai Ntwenu check my comment on other thread @ # 67.Dont be too quick to insult elders,you are cursing yourself.In fact dont ever insult elders or talk r.u.b.b.i.s.h about them.iwe mwaice apopelele kuti “wafukunya ba Maureen ati na spovido uuuuuuhm” ? just think of it : iwe kuti wayingila apaleingisha ba Levy ba president zoona?nafulwa saana,you must apologise RIGHT NOW or else…..
To forgive is DIVINE. Many people fail to use the word SORRY. Madam you are the first female President of Zambia in 2016 and I will be the first man. May God bless you.
I think when you listen to the interview critically, you will indeed realise that she was not saying that she wants Govt to pay her enough money. She actually said she’s going back to set up a law firm to fend for herself and meet the needs of her children.
#21 lol u are killing me, i see you are here to defend levy’s honor……or else…..lol
Unreservedly as a Christian nation we accept Madam Mwanawasa’s apology over her aggressive statement created in the BBC interview. This is magnanimity of a conscious mind which has taken responsibility where found contemptibly wrong. She is a mere mortal that unwittingly in a brief forfeited self to emotions and ambitions. We discard the perception of her aggression in the BBC interview which we found unparallel ingratitude. We implore her to guard the heart.
Well , some things will never change. I wonder why you want to keep your children in expensive schools and expect the government using taxpayers money to incurr the costs, like Shikapwasha stated its a personal choice you make. Anyway, its good to apologise and at the sametime appreciate what the government has done for you guys while the late president was alive and now. Its also important to understand that fater leaving state house things do change but our Zambian leaders never seem to have plans for the future after political offices. It just never stops amazing me, no wonder she complains. However, as educated as you are mama, the sky is the limit, you can as you said go back to your profession. But if you keep stepping on people’s toes, your business in future may suffer.All the…
best and may the peace of Christ be with you and your family.
We the people, the ruling party and presumably the Head of state His Excellency President Rupiah Bwezani Banda were disappointed with that overboard interview.All forgiven.
ATTENTION ALL BLOGGERS :
I have a question – how true is it that our “controvesial” senior citizen here is in real life one BEN KANGWA from ZNBC.?am just asking please,someone offload the facts a.s.a.p
Apology accepted, next time be careful. you don’t all this controversy around, there are alot of hounds in GRZ, they’ll “eat” you alive.
One word menopause. Women usually suffer from this condition. Let the madam see a physician. Apology accepted.
If anyone here thinks that Maureen is broke then you should think again. Even without the money from the state and other sources which i wont mention, Levy Mwanawasa’s estate is substantial. This is a “dummy”. How can someone paying £10k per month (exclusive of accomodation, transport and living expenses) + $2k per term + her own living expenses do so on $1k per month? It doesn’t take a genius.
Walai Ntwenu ,am still waiting….check and respond to my # 21 above.
Put your tail down and swallow your pride ma’am. life has different seasons and such you should find the right attire for that. You’ve actually find the right attire by assuming your proffessional-law job. Also find appropriate ways of getting attention from GRZ.
So this is how much hatred there is in Zambia now! All you PF bloggers misdirect your anger towards Maureen for something she didnt say? Please listen to the interview again. If you still say she insulted Zambians, its either you dont understand English or you are very dull. Maureen was saying govt has done its part, but since the money is not enough for me to meet all my family’s needs, I have decided to go back to work, to reopen the law firm. Just like the majority of the Zambian workers, they get a salary but its not enough. Many of us do projects on the side. The same goes with her. She did not insult anybody. Ronnie Shikapwasha is the most useless general Zambia has ever produced. She is Maureen’s first cousin but he has chosen his job and has no time to console Maureen.
We rational Zambians on the Internet who were fired up with Madam Mwanawasa’s unacceptable aggressive statement in the BBC interview, we unreservedly accept her apology as nationals of a Christian nation.
Hers is now magnanimity of a conscious mind which has taken responsibility where found contemptibly wrong. She is a mere mortal that unwittingly in an opportunity to be heard, she regrettably forfeited self to emotions and ambitions. We discard the perception her interview created on all Zambians which we found as being her unacceptable unparallel ingratitude that deserved rebuke. We implore her to guard her heart henceforth.
it is always nice to hear someone say am sorry. Good work Madam Maureen. I hope this issue will be put to rest now.
She has not appologised. Firstly what is she appologising for? she has denied what she said. She thinks we are dull people heeey!. I expected her to say ” my fellow Zambians, I am very sorry for what I said to the BBC. Forgive me for I did not know what I was doing” . If she says this, I can for give her 100%. But she is saying she did not say what the BBC reported. What a woman is molin? Molin just humble yourself and appologise period.
anywere we accept your apology maybe she couldn t understand ichisungu bwinoshe can hear but she can t understand. ,my little advice to mama maureen plz have family spokesperson,to avoid this kind of
mistakes.
Well what else can i say, you are welcome Maureen and apology accepted
Whats with the Mwanawasa’s kanshi? no disrespect to the Late LPM MHSRIP, i remember he made an announcement that Government was taking over the Operations of the railway system and handing it back to Zambia Railways but as soon as he arrived from RSA he changed and said he was miscourted anyway their is more to it than wat meets the eye..
You better apologize you ungrateful ingrate! Go back to work!
#5 Chief
Thanks for representing us. We have accepted her appology as human is to error
Why is that many bloggers here are so chauvinist? Anytime we are discussing issues relating to a female figure in the public eye, the reason given for her behaviour or opinion is that she needs a good f**k? The same is true whether we are discussing Siliya, Nawakwi and the others. Are some of you guys living in the 21st century? It is about time we had more progressive attitudes towards women. People need to grow up and ealise that men and women are equal being. I wonder if some of you so-called men realise the pain that women go through just to give birth to you and then feed you for the first months of your life. You make some of us enlightened men ashamed of our gender.
Moreen, may this be the last time you apologize. Remember 70 x 70 times apologies is not practical even.
#44 im concerned, u know its been this way with men since the beginning of time, but women too act wierd when they are not serviced correctly, im not condoning to some of the abuse hurled at the ex-first lady and im sure she is beyond the age to be called such names, but Nawaki and siliya, especially siliya iyo i will stop here
numbala 33 nd the rest, sory mune. iv jst arrived hme frm mnchester so apa nili nava madamu, trying to do a few things. deuces bane naya mukulya. :)>-
Senior Citizen
We the people, the ruling party. At times why do you cheat yourself that you are a consultant. Thank God today you have made it clear
I personally was so disapointed with what she said, if i where to rate the interviw with regard to the other interviews with other first ladies her was the worst of them all. The other first ladies were sublime.Shame on your!!!! How many widows do we have whose huband have died and are struggling to educate their children. He is now gone. Fend for yourself and if anything you are on higher ground. Let the other monies go to the less vulnerable children who are worse off than your privileged children.Be grateful for what God has given you.Pray over it madam first lady.

May 19, 2010 at 9:01 pmI have avoided commenting on Madam Maureen Kabuko’s miscalculated interview to the world media and indeed her insulting ingratitude to our poor struggling mothers on the street ever struggling on less than a $1 a day. In my tradition we don’t kick a mourner when is already on ground mourning. But this one I will comment. Kabuko lives in a tax free mansion, driven in a tax free VIP machine, gas, served by tax free maids services, security detail and medical care. Kids under 21 years have 100% GRZ scholarship anywhere in the world. Cannot understand her callous insensitivity and open ingratitude to the poor Zambians paying her.
Senior Citizen says:
May 19, 2010 at 9:10 pmShe talks about the last thirty minutes of Levy, is she implying Mwanawasa was killed by Peter Magande, Hon. Brig. General Dr. Brian Chituwo and her dear friend Darlington Mwape considering that these were the men on site???? Any i thought the Constitution of Zambia says hold Presidential bye-elections within 90 days following the death of a seating President to avoid a constitutional crisis? And isn’t see the one in a turbo that started the failed immoral, unAfrican, anti-democratic campaigns of coronating Magande when late Mwanawasa’s body had not even been interred?
Senior Citizen says:
May 19, 2010 at 9:18 pmIs Kabuko telling us that Mwanawasa was killed by Peter Magande, Hon. Brig. General Dr. Brian Chituwo and her dear friend Darlington Mwape?????
Is she telling us that we should have circumvented the constitution and let her finish the coronation campaign of Magande or indeed herself who wanted to be coronated as Zambian President? Under what constitutional power was the nation going to run after the 90 days requirement for an acting President???? Kabuko’s law credentials are questionble here. A grounded lawyer cannot be promoting extra-constitutional acts in a democracy
Senior Citizen says:
May 19, 2010 at 9:34 pmKabuko is in agony. She cuts the image of a significant toughie and a superwoman who deserves special than all, who, through her iron will, has held on doggedly to the reins of imaginary ambitions for power .Sources revealed that the First Lady has many woes, which has left her devastated.
Certainly her once-upon-a-time close family tree, friends and associates have not only shunned her but now hobnob with institutions of democracy than propping her personality cult she dearly want.
Senior Citizen says:
May 19, 2010 at 9:57 pmAgainst the family will and Zambian traditional norms Kabuko wanted Zambian tax payers to buy a multimillion Dollar refrigerator to quarantine dead body of Mwanawasa in State House with power in her hands for a launch up into the Presidential campaigns as incumbent. That this was trashed in her face by the establishment, she called for coronation of Magande a paper weight decoy she could have kicked out at will. To compound her problems, many Zambians have known her as an uncultured infatuated woman whom they are calling names, describing her as a ‘greedy, power-hungry woman’ who won’t let go despite strident calls for reality against her dream.
Senior Citizen says:
May 19, 2010 at 10:10 pmImpeccable sources around her reveal that Kabuko’s catalogue of woes and heartless decisions during and after Mwanawasa’s reign have just traumatized the former first Lady, to the extent that she has become a shadow of herself and in most cases has lost her mind. More than any former and current first lady she carries unparallel public scorn of all Zambians and former members of the establishment whom she belabored to destroy with the tabloid without appreciating that they were actually selfless king makers of Mwanawasa Presidency from rejection, fragile to strength.
Senior Citizen says:
May 19, 2010 at 10:19 pmNo doubt constitutionally the grandeur and perks of office, which, before demise of President Mwanawasa, were at their peak, have reduced to 50% of the incumbent she is now protesting. She is increasingly venting with complaints that the democratic and constitutional transfer of power other than her designed coronation has banned her from reckoning. She is said to be greatly pained and disillusioned with unsuccessful tabloid editorials not turning tables in her favor.
Senior Citizen says:
May 19, 2010 at 10:30 pmAs the clock ticks in the nation’s constitutional democracy, and a progressive political terrain, with all kinds of permutations and gladiators posturing for the plum job, businesses and progress it remains to be seen if Kabuko’s wish for her own power will not take more self humiliation in power politics. For now, the game continues as the ambitious woman continues in her dream and agony of the real world. Applied Politics is dynamic, idiosyncratic to place and time. Kabuko has a nightmare of knowing the sin of hurting shakers and movers that make it happen
Senior Citizen says:
May 19, 2010 at 10:36 pmIn closing, kabuko has insulted and mocked our zambian poor mothers on the street, in market places, in farms and at home surving on US $1.00 a day. Sadly from the same she is mocking, she dreams to earn power to misrule them. just wondering under what platform and machinery that will be willing to stamp such a liability.good luck in her agony.
If senior citizen aka BK was given an opportunity to pull the trigger on Maureen,he could have gladly taken it.
Watch this space,if one day Maureen is appointed as Minister,God forbid,you will see how senior citizen will literally lick her
She apologised so stop attacking her.
Maureen, it takes a lot of humility to say sorry. You are one of a rare breed……, I hope his matter will now be put to rest.
Apology accepted. Just be careful next time. Don’t ever think you can take the people of Zambia for granted.
red card smooth criminal you are forgetting to state what sata said immediately after. so who is more ashamed? the fact is maureen knows she spoke without substance or fact and hence her ‘UNRESERVED APOLOGY’ she knows she cannot fight the hand that feeds her. she is just too dull and thinks her degrees and the fact she was first lady means she should be president. we know how she got her degrees!! dancing for that fool darlington at UNZA and using mutembo for her mba thesis
# 13, are you implying that they vote for me?
Most welcome.
What can I say? This woman needs alangizi! Period!
Appology accepted. Let this be a waring to all high profile figures who think Zambians are dull, they know when they are being taken for a ride. Let this be a waring to the pact who think they can hoodwink Zambians into not noticing the abismal contribution they as parties have done to zambias devlopment by doing nothing but trading in insults with GRZ. The pipo know development when they see devlopment, they know council service provision when they see council service provision, insults do not translate into development or council service provision.
Something like PR?
Good Evening
Back to her senses again or was it just a misplaced melancholy? Well, let’s hope she sticks to the last paragraph of her lecture at hand. It will save her a lot of trouble in future.
Only today from her ex Shikapwasha we have come to learn she was paid:
1. Rentals paid from November 2008 to October 2010 is K703,400,000.00
2. Gratuity paid to estate of the late president is K378, 217,738.50
3. Funeral collections by GRZ and paid to the estate K705,493,751.00
4. Motor vehicles, goods and services, travel expenses,
fuel, repairs, security services and insurance of which K513,534,933
Total K2,331,244,000.00
(Two billion and three hundred and forty four thousand Kwacha only)
By any standard even Senior Citizen can perform culingus on Mourinho for that amount!
The level of lusting for Maureen exhibited by some bloggers is astounding. Hey men, Keep your pants on. Don’t just think about sex everytime.
Why does she have to apologize to us or the damn govn!! she was right in the first place to question why they didn’t investigate her husbands death, even if it was obvoius he was president and needed to be remembered by at least a formal investigation.
maybe its because she wants to be a politician so its better to be in good books with those in power
Guys naya nomba mukunwa ka “mosi” pa Musana @ Kabwata market,then inje mukulya akabwali kubondi na roast chapanswa,beans,impwa and chibwabwa yakusashila.c-u 2moro!

Apology accepted.And I hope she will enjoy are Quietness.Mwikalapatalala.
balh, blah, blah.
She has apologised, so lets treat the matter as though it never happened.
Well done maureen it takes guts to apologise. Other politicians should learn from you. What happened to all the properties that you and your hub acquired which are rented out plus the output from the farm. Surely you have some extra money somewhere.
Ungrateful woman!!!
i do not accept her apology!!
Please peopl, do not be fooled into believing this woman!
I think she is no longer sure of herself…
Am sorry to say this, BUT HER APOLOGY IS NOT ACCEPTED!!!
her statement on BBC has caused the country immense shame!!
GREEDY FOOL!!!
:o[-([-(:o
I feel sorry for her! I mean, Levy left his had work in the hands of Banda and hoped all his hopes will be fulfilled and pop comes Kafupi and we in disarray!
This shows that stealing pays… because Kafupi and his wife are not complaining and MMD are back to the kafupi days and pocketing big time, especially after hearing what she was saying. I am sure levy had some funds served up, but you gotta think of the extend family and so forth and look at how that thief kafupi is living…. He might actually bail out ba Maureen (and she will reject it!). Dont criticise her, because she is basically saying that Levy (despite his shortcomings) was never a thief! The guys in power are busy stealing now… to follow Chiluba’s example, which is a big shame!
Criminal ,
I have failed to catch your message, point or inference in copy and paste of my statement.Could explicate what you are trying to imply?
Again on behalf my many selfless progressive patriots who took offense with madam Mwanawasa’s interview we unreservedly as a Christian nation accept her apology despite the aggressive statement made in the BBC interview. Hers is magnanimity of a conscious mind which has taken responsibility where found contemptibly wrong. She is a mere mortal that unwittingly in a brief forfeited self to emotions and ambitions which should not be. We here discard the perception of her aggression in the BBC interview which we found unparallel ingratitude. We implore her to guard the heart henceforth. Got issues with our forgiveness of a contrite spirit?
Zambia is a christian nation and us the noble, patriotic and just we take to heart in forgiveness a contrite spirit.by publicly apologizing to citizens and the world, Madam Mwanawasa has shown a contrite heart, a broken heart, a humble heart. Why do you want us to share your unforgivess and grudge? Why do you want us keep the disappointment in our ways when she has vividly sought restoration? Hatred and unforgivess to death is a preserve of PF kaponya camp.Us progressive Zambians as my colleague and brother MMD Chief bootlicker has sanctitly put it we have forgiven her. If God forgave our scalets who are we not to take a contrite heart?
Forgiveness is a living virtue in the progressive Zambians, democracy, ruling Banda’s MMD administration.It is Golden and an asset of success.
Ps:34:18. The Lord is near to those who have a broken heart, And saves such as have a contrite spirit.Again we have unreservedly forgiven the contrite heart of madam Mwanawasa. Keep your hatred to your hateful soul yourself. We are not apologetic for our spirit of public forgivenss.
Red Card-criminal ,
Go tell Satan your master of the way that SC and his army of patriotic Zambians on the cyber and indeed the ground have today accepted with forgiveness mrs Mwanawasa’s apology made from a contrite heart. Tell your devil that to this you take contempt because you hate and know not forgiveness yourself.

~X(kanshi iwe senior citizen,niwe ani? U make a living from blogging, mwa? E naku tina, shi tata! May you blog well!
Ba Senior Citizen, iyo chaliibondola ku Embassy. Do you even work? Talk of development. Is this how MMD is going to develop Zambia when you are spending the all day of your work hours on the blog? When do you work? Could this be the reason why nothing good comes out of the embassies?
I want to ask you, if you talk this much, what time do you find to think? Don’t you think this is affecting your thought process? Give it a week without blogging, probably this help you become objective and see things using others’ lenses. There’s no need for you to argue and argue until you drop dead. Sometimes, you chill. You are getting old and we expect you to lead in a wise manner, not antagonizing every blogger or members of the opposition.
# 88 Kolos2020 well said. It seems these guys abroad are just chewing tax payer’s money for yapping on the internet. Any way we are counting down to 2011. These guys will be the first to be called from abroad and never to pay them benefits for ideal time the have accrued.
When are we as PF cadres going to come up with our own blogs where MMD propagandists can reciprocate blogging? It looks like we are life time passangers haah!
I am saddened that once again we have the same ‘moaning’ that is characteristic of Zambians. Zambians in general are always talking about their ‘small salaries’ and converting them to dollar terms. Mrs Mwanawasa, if you are getting 60% of the President’s salary, why did you send your child to study in London at £10K per year? How did you manage to educate your child in UK because even if LPM was still alive, you could not have afforded this on his salary except from per diems and trips abroad.
Bushe ndemona shani,Bonse bakwete what is termed or called BROWN ENVELOPE.What was happening?let me know fellow country men/women
@88 Is this Senior Citizen at Embassy here in USA where they take forever to return an email, hangup on you if you are lucky or answer you rude once they realize they are talking to a fellow Zambian? no wonder emails take that long kanshi you are busy blogging…uku punama boneni…wa cita ne menso koti nifyo shanama….makandi obe! ule bomba lukoso.
Is Maureen really apologetic or she`s just being blackmailed to issue such a statement.Before the plug was pulled on LPM,the govt had released over $1 million to purchase life support machinery that was suppoesd to be installed at plot one.These funds haven`t been accounted for and Maureen is allegedly at the center of this scandal.
The MMD govt must seriously investigate what led to the demise of LPM if there`s nothing to hide.
# 90 is SHUSHUSHU Senior Citizen an impostor
You are always apologizing! shut your mouth!!!
#86 & #87 MIS PRETTY
Senior Citizen goes by the name of Shi Kapata based at the US embassy.He is a govt operative known back home as SHUSHUSHU.His occupation is to turn public opionion in favour of the ruling party.He doesn`t blog for fun or for the love of the nation but as a source of livelihood.He`s even been on record supporting the MMD over the violence they caused in Mufumbwe on defenceless citizens.
Sometimes people make “mistakes” for ulterior motives. If the Govt had kept quiet was this lady going to apologize? I notice in her so-called apology that she does not dispute what was reported. To me all this sounds like she wanted to gauge sympathy for her agenda. I doubt whether she commands sympathy back home because I hear the lady is very power hungry.
Thank senior citizen for leading the progressive bloggers in forgiving madam Maureen Mwanawasa,as for me i say to you madam you are forgiven.My only simple advice to you is that do not get excited with journalists be from your friends at the Post Zambia or your admirers from BBC they will destroy you.You need to work with a press assistant to help you make statements and clarify issues on your behalf and so on.Be less emotional ,i do realize that life is not the same without your hubby /our beloved president LPM ,but life must continue.As a Zambian i would want your children to grow with a feeling that Zambians hate you because you are a widow.Let your children know that we love and respect you.May the Almighty God grant you wisdom and strength let His word be your daily bread,Amen

He once was a records spinner now he is trying to be an MMD spin master. Unfortunately LT audience is learned and well informed. It seems he is felling to sway anyone on this blog to follow him.
#102 KALOS 2020 You are your followers are very funny ,jealous people ,your words are more deadly than poison ,can you Ben alone he has worked hard for over thirty years at ZNBC when some you were changing jobs like pants the man remained spinning great music and reading news for us till he landed himself managerial positions .Ben is an mass communicator/ broadcaster.He’s royal civil servant to the government of the Republic of Zambia.Ben deserves his appointment.For you KFC employees tough luch ,just hope for the impossible that your shikulu ,i mean SATANA one day rules the country maybe he’s give u some left over posts in the Congo DR or Gaborn who knows apart from God Himself.Jealous even to your fellow Bemba!
correction Can you leave BEN KANGWA alone
Yaya, it seems umunkoyo is affecting your brain. What has Ben Kangwa being a fellow Bemba got to do with reality? You see how foolish and tribal you sound. So what if Ben span records for 30 years? We are discuss his behavior today. So, you are asking us to give him a pass because of what he has done for the past 30 years? What nonsense is that? So you think all of us we have been sitting idle for the past 30 years? Why don’t you ask him (Senior Citizen Ben Kangwa) to leave Sata alone. As long as he is spending public funds espousing hate, he is fair play my dear. Just in case you want to know how we know about who he is, you need to know how to use a computer. So, don’t get excited for nothing. Oh, by the way, there’s nothing wrong working at KFC. The money made at KFC is better than
the money made at the embassy. Just in case you thought there is money at the embassy, as your sister Maureen Mwanawasa. KFC workers make more than she is crying about. Now, it is either you ask your God Father at the embassy to spend borrowed money they are paid effectively by doing diplomatic duties or he goes back to spinning records that you feel entertained you. So, instead of burying your thick head in sand, probably you need to ask yourself what he is being paid for.
#105 KA KALOS 2020 AND YOUR FOLLOWERS WHO IS BEING STUPID ME OR YOU ?SENIOR CITIZEN ATTACKS SATANA WHO IS EVIL POLITICIAN AND YOU WANT EVERY ONE OF TO BLOG LIKE YOU BABIES IN THIS WORLD FULL OF HATRED AND JEALOUS YOU CHEATING YOURSELVES.IF YOU WANT TO MAKE A CHANGE IN ZAMBIA GO AND REGISTER TO VOTE THAN INSULTING ELDERS LIKE ME.I HOPE YOU CAN LIVE AND ENTER THE US I DOUBT YOUR PAPERS AND IT IS NOT THE FAULT OF THE ZED EMBASSY THAT YOU HAVE OVER STAYED YOUR STUDENT VISA.
BA KALOS 2020 LETS BE REAL KFC RATE ARE ABOUT $6.00 AND HOUR,YOU HAVE NO SICK/ANNAUL .THAT IS FOR SCHOOL CHILDREN AND DESPARATE PEOPLE LIKE WHO ARE BEING EXPLOITED BY EMPLOYER IN THE US BCOZ YOU ARE NOT LEGALLY THERE.BEN HAS HANDSOME PENSION HE FLIES ON DIPLOMATIC PASSPORT HAS FREE ACCOMODATION ,MEDICAL INSURANCE AND ALL.
You see how myopic you sound. You don’t even know that in America there’s what is called minimum rate. Just because you have no minimum pay wherever you are screaming from does not mean it is the same all over the world. Do you know how childish you sound discussing people’s salaries or wages or their benefits? You sound like my first grade child talking to his friends in the school yard. How old are you again? What point are you trying to prove by discussing who is paid what and how much? What does have to do with your maniacal crazy ranting and praise singing about Banda and failing sick MMD policies? What has that got to do with us discovering who the fool senior citizen is? What has that got to do with him spending all day blogging leaving his real duties unattended to? Get a grip.
# 107 you state, and I quote; “IF YOU WANT TO MAKE A CHANGE IN ZAMBIA GO AND REGISTER TO VOTE THAN INSULTING ELDERS LIKE ME…” Are you really an elder? Yes, we have been told that age comes with wisdom, but to some of you, it comes with foolishness. If you feel you are an elder, please behave like one. We are not ready to be treated like kids any more. Since you have stated that you are an elder, you need to see a doctor. May be it is not you, but you are becoming senile or Alzheimer is creeping in you that you have forgotten the time we are in.
Guys , guys , guys I have seen Ben Kangwa’s writing style and compared this Senior CItizen/Veteran/Patriot/Mwata. I can vouch for the fact that this MMD cadre paid blogger is not BK. He is probably a DIckson Jere sponsored stooge and he is the one who even writes those useless Times of Zambia propaganda articles. Jere is happy to have us blinded that his stooge is BK, but you know that Jere and his Shushus are behind this fake of an impostor. People don’t be dribbled by the BK Decoy
True PF,
I am sorry to inform you that we have deciphered his data and IP comes from two computers. One from his home address and the other from the embassy address. By the way, this ma is Ben Kangwa. I know his writing and I can vouch as former collegemate at Hone, we were taught by same lecturer, Edem Djokotoe. If you want, we can post the IP addresses and the addresses they come from. I have more evidence who is Senior Citizen. He erred in Los Angeles when he messed up some organization for Zambians there.

True PF cadre & Kalos2020,
Bonse muleikololafye amafi pamisulu with failure. Its like none of you has ever been to school and learned computer security. How can you as paid up cadres fail to carry out one of the most and simplest task of knowing who a fellow blogger you blog with is and blogging where? With such poverty and ignorance how are you to unscramble the MMD mafias in election? do you think you look more foolish before the MMD, their propagandists and LT honchoes who holds the mystery?

Your failure in life risk taking you in deep trouble because scandalizing an innocent person Mr. Kangwa whom i have never even met in my life is a serious crime not protect by the FCC or LT. The honchos of LT will not gauarantee your privacy. I have told you i’m no closer to Washington DC not even a single post by me has ever come from a DC IP or neighboring states. I’m many hours of drive away from DC. I believe Mr.Ben Kangwa just entered the US after 2006 under Mwanawasa. I have been in the USA with my family of 5 since Chiluba’s reign though visit home every year. You talk of Honne college, i have only been in two USA public universities where i have earned my under and Graduate shool credentials together with my spouse.You have lamentably failed. Watch out Kangwa could litigate you.
Ben Kangwa is a public servant who probably has not even thought of doing what i have done in life God forbid. bring your brains on and openly debate me intelligently right here in economics, public policy, development matters, investment and political economy instead of exposing your failurs without solicitation of me knowing it. I stand ready to be intellectually debated. Dreaming will not help or take PF anywhere because this SC is just starting a political charge against PF and the fragile PACT of tribal leaders to nowhere.We have time and fire power to drive PF crackers agog in hallucinating.LT Honchos laugh loud over these failures looking to DC for this SC.
Please its true Maureen was miscourted, bana mayo ebaishiba ifyo bwingila, ifyo bwakula ifyo bumfwika, ifyo bwikala nefyo bufuma ubuchushi.
There we go again as Zambians, accepting apologies. Do you know how much mileage she has gained from all this? She has driven a point home then she quickly apologises. she is clever. What she said cannot be brushed aside but has got govt thinking and the pipo of Zambia wondering. She used the sympathy card to build momentum for her political career. Clever woman
IWE ben! pa numbala 119, ati shani? learn to greet zebige. mwalila?
At times we dnt reason..hw can almost all bloggers accept such a cheap apology? that is cheap diplomacy. First of all how do u missunderstand someone who says the government has not even investigated my husbands death, thats what she said and she was quoted in her own words.She even said the US1000 was not enough. what misunderstandin has it brought. for me i can say that she is rude and ungratefull she thinks life should not change when the privileges she was enjoing ar no more. How many pipo ar failing to pay at UNZA and she was sayin she is failin to pay for her 2 children in the UK. Why not bring them to ZED. thats an insult against the concious of the 12million zambians. Pipo lets be logical and lookup the word missunderstand in the dictionery.

119 Senior Citizen – happy to take you up on offer of debating issues. What in your view is Zambia’s biggest economic challenge and what do you think should be any Zambian governments ( MMD, PF etc) most pressing economic priority? To what extent do you think the current government is meeting those priorities/challenges?
Please try and keep your answer within one post.
Simon ,
Find SC and join him debating on the thread under topic:
“Pitfalls of windfall tax”
By Francis Muma, PhD Candidate in International Economics and Business at Xiamen University in People’s Republic of China
In English They say “It Takes A Man to Say Sorry & a Pig To Run Away”.Well Done Former First Lady May Be The Likes of FTJ & William Banda can Copy and Paste.
madam former first lady NO need to apologise you were misquoted period!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Thank you senior citizen now i can go and work to earn my living .
Maureen must be very happy today after reading some of these comments.She is laughing with her friends that she has fooled us by her cheap apology. I for one dont accept her apology.Maureen why is it that you are misunderstood, misquoted and so on by the media? Radio Phoenix, Times of Zambia and now BBC.You have hatred for RB cos to you he shud not be at plot 1 but you or your preferred candidate. I advise RB to be very careful with you cos you are a snake. By the way I liked our First Lady’s interview which I read in the Times of Zambia, no pomposity there, but if it was Maureen, it was going to be kulibonesha. If I were given a choose which woman I wud like to be presido of this country I wud go for Inonge Mbukusita Lewanika not you Maureen.
What sorry nonsence we now know her line of thinking let her just go to hell period that was a big insult to the zambia public mostly other widows
yea yea, whatever!
Ba tile Sorry…Na kashimi kapela……………………….
Balei chindika ba mayo
thank you for a knowledge.
