Gen. Shikapwasha said the police should be left to do their work especially that they have already recorded a warn-and-caution statement from Dr Musonda and are still processing the case.
He said Government will not put undue pressure on the police but will leave them to do professional investigations into Dr Musonda’s case.
Gen. Shikapwasha said people who are calling for the resignation of Dr Musonda to pave way for investigations should leave the matter to him.

He said once the case is clear, President Banda will be able to do what he sees fit to ensure that the due process of the law takes its course.
And University Teaching Hospital spokesperson Pauline Mbangweta has described as stable the condition of Patriotic Front (PF) cadre Jackson Musaka, who was shot in the forehead allegedly by Dr Musonda.
Ms Mbangweta said Mr Musaka is recovering from the bullet wound he suffered after being shot in the forehead.
She said Mr Musata is now eating and responding well to treatment.
[pullquote]“I am confirming that I visited Mr Musaka this morning (yesterday) and the doctors attending to him have said that he is out of danger and that he is quickly responding to treatment, he is talking now and eating,” Ms Mbangweta said.[/pullquote]
Ms Mbangweta said in an interview in Lusaka yesterday that the UTH management is happy that Mr Musaka is responding well to treatment and that all the necessary interventions are being worked out by doctors at the institution to ensure his quick recovery.
“I am confirming that I visited Mr Musaka this morning (yesterday) and the doctors attending to him have said that he is out of danger and that he is quickly responding to treatment, he is talking now and eating,” Ms Mbangweta said.
She urged the Zambian people to continue praying for the quick recovery of Mr Musaka.
[Zambia Daily Mail]
I wish this young man a quick recovery too.But have to arrest this criminal and send him to jail period
I think gay marriages should be legalized in Zed. So we can have senoir citizen/veteran and the chief gov’t spokesman tie the knot. I believe that way, we will be spared of this s.t.u.p.i.d. rhetoric.

Oh we are praying alright. Praying for justice on this animal farm.
Zambians want JUSTICE.
statements like that make me sick.
“And University Teaching Hospital spokesperson Pauline Mbangweta has described as stable the condition of Patriotic Front (PF) cadre Jackson Musaka, who was shot in the forehead allegedly by Dr Musonda.

Good news he is recovering and I wish him all the best. I however agree with Chief Government spokesperson Ronnie Shikapwasha. Let the police work.
The dull chap Shikapwasha is asying the police should be left to do the work but in the same statement hes saying once the case is clear RB should be able to do what he sees fit. How dull can one person get people? So the police should be left alone cause they are supposedly independent but then RB should be allowed to be the final judge on what the same so-called independent police should do. Indeed our country has gone to the dogs
#7 I agree, I cannot actually believe what I am reading here. Is this Somalia or Zimbabwe?
“the president will decide what to do when he comes back from his holiday”
THATS WHAT HAPPENS WHEN THE COUNTRY HAS GONE TO DOGS.LOOK AT DOG NOW WHO LET YOU OUT?Mr. Capitalist
Mr. Capitalist
Today you have used your real brain.
Shikapwasha is certainly daft and dumb. Police recorded a warn and caution statement from the criminal Musonda many days ago and Shikapwasha says police are still ‘processing’ the case. What kind of processing is this? The criminal and his car are known, the weapon has been recovered and all the evidence is there. The fact is that if this terrible crime had been committed by a commoner or a member of the opposition the case would have been disposed off by now and the culprit would be in jail.. When will sanity return to these leaders?
This iz Zambia, the REAL AFRIKA!
#9. When he comes he straight going to South Africa for the FIFA World Cup. From South Africa, he is going to Addis Ababa for AU meeting. From Addis Ababa he going to China for 7 days. From China he is going to Libya to go and see the new Zamtel Owners where he will spend 10 days. So he will never decide.
#14 From Libya he will go-ideas will come where next.
What a Shame! Zambians must be regreting for voting for RB.I have never seen a president who is always siding with criminals!We still have a change to make amends come next year.Lets not lose hope!
#8 BWEZANI was born in zimbabwe
#16. Suprisingly, there still f.u.l.l.i.s.h people in Zambia who are still dancing for these MMD thieves. I wonder what type of brains such people have.
FOOLISH NOT FULLISH
I now understand why the current regime will be given a red card. Even sympathisers are now getting fed up. This is clear double standards. A colleague of mine was locked up in Solwezi for 3 days just because a kachasu drunkard staggered towards his moving vehicle and later died in hospital. The intentions of this criminal were very clear – SHOOTING TO KILL (in the head). We have lots of very wrong people in govt and this can not be left to continue like that.
Yes he needs prayers so is justice%-(%-(
“He said once the case is clear, President Banda will be able to do what he sees fit to ensure that the due process of the law takes its course.”
This is the clearest indication of that dictatorial piece of amafi – RB! Whys should he even think he has the right to decide how this case proceed? People will lynch you after 2011 and we will never forgive you. Uli chiwelewele iwe chi Banda! Shakapwasa, you are just old twat and you are mocking god by saying lets pray and the next minute you are saying god hates poor defenseless people. What a shame for Zambia!!
This man AIMED to KILL…….Couldn’t he have shot in the air to scare away those boys!!!!!! The case of attempted MURDER is the appropriate case considering the circumstances.. These are the people who should be CAGED and NOT Fred M’membe….. Ba RB uko mwile ku Mfuwe feflect on these issues and not just going there to run around in a Bombasa with grandchildren.**==
# 16 Zambians did not vote for RB. He forced his way in by the tricks of VJ. Mr Nose sometimes learn to keep quite do not just yap yap. Leave the police to do what? just enjoy the air around you which you are depriving a lot of pipo
the worldly elect vs the heavenly poor people.
the last will become the first and the first the last — bewarned those that think they are above all
Yes, you can see that in zed there is two laws one for the mmd and the other for the common man who was shot and in hospital and dr musanda is still working for the government and is free. What is warn and caution for when musonda shot a common man. He should have been in prison and appear in court like every one else. Guys in zed it is high time you protected yourselves and do the same thing.
But why is this man free up to now,i wonder wat is happening in zed mwe banthu.I it were a common ma n like me this time i would have been in chimbokaila prison eatin rotten beans.
@John cena;
I think Captalist has a brain but as Rhoda #26 has put it there will always be animal farm. And captalist will stil stck to his balls to stand for the wrong and justify it.
Good lunch!!!!!
I wonder if this honourable secured a place in heaven. Life style of the rich and shameless.
# 23, hahahahahaha!! ati running around in a bombasa with his grandchildren!!! That is funny dude!
oh thats interesting…People who go around shooting others in the forehead get ‘warn and caution’ I thought it was suposed to be ‘attempted manslaughter’. the police do not work independently in Zambia.Guess they are waiting for the president to issue instructions.Animal farm indeed!
Ronnie I belive your :-@ so much!!! =))=))
Can we also start shooting these guys ? Musonda must be shot in his dull head. Can some one do that please. It an eye for an eye since police cant do anything on Murderer Musonda. What a country of criminal leaders!!!![-([-(
“Govt is not playing double standards but let alone the law take its course”-rephrased.
Going by the written law, am made to understand that he has commited a ferony.
“The criminal quality of an act cannot be discerned by intuition nor can it be discovered by reference to any standard, but one: is the act prohibited with PENAL CONSEQUENCES?” a certain case concluded.
Law of equity also says;
1.live honestry
2. Harm no one
3. Render everyone his due.
Now, if the govt keeps quiet and the crime is commited both against the state and the public. the purpose od police is to keep order alonside restraining any acts of law breaking.
If you follow comon law, judges make law out of such jugdements. This case may be used later on a different but similar case and may remain a bad…
Uyu musoja chipumbu elyo muwelwele
Mwebantu nyika yesu ya bija. So our new high court is called Rupia Banda? Thats what Ronnie means when he says the president should decide. How can the police work when lupiya should decided. They also have to do what the master says. The police are supposed to be independent. Wait Lupiya the same police will arrest you when you leave state house. Ask Chiluba!
There is no denying that Shikapwasha was one of the closest ministers to Levy Mwanawasa. When Levy was around, Shikapwasha, like other minions who surrounded Levy, pretended to be loyal to Levy and what he stood for. What Levy and the nation should have known is that people like Shikapwasha, and there are many of them, are very loyal to their stomachs. As long as they are getting something out of you, they will do whatever it takes to remain close to you. In the case of Levy, they pretended to be the champions of all the causes that he supported- From the POST
When you feeling low, down, and depressed please just think of Shikapwasha and how he manages to be happy with all the ugliness. This man makes me feel so handsome.
How long did it take to arrest the guy said to have insulted the president and how long will it take to arrest the presidents workmate who short some one
Father Bwalya where are you?. it takes a few hours for the zambia cops to arrest and detain you at kamfinsa, when this trigger happy doctor is still moving freely since the time he pulled a trigger on the poor serenje boy.
Bwezani is very much useless !! hez such a hopeless chap !! ZAMBIANS can,t wait for 2011, VIVA PACT!!
ronie..u r rubbish…rot …
Cage that Fool, what a minister? Shikapwasha this fool wanted to kill some one and you saying that we wait for what. What does the bible says about such type of people, they should face punishment
This is just a young boy. What is wrong with us Africans kanshi? very merciless. So because he is some minister, the law has to shield him. And why should we wait for the president to decide on the matter? ARA BEE is gone to Mfuwe and next he will be in South Africa for three days. I thought our country has a rule of law system because if it were so, this minister would have been arrested for attempt murder.
GOD HELP MOTHER ZAMBIA PLEASE BEFORE IT IS TOOOOOOOOO LATE:)]:)]:)]:)]:)]
You save ONE Minister and lose the votes of a constituency and a lot more violence hating Zambians…..Politicians are really poor mathematicians!
Dr Musonda is very luck he is in Zambia ayi. If it was in USA he would have already been in police custody by now
I like the way the word, “Allegedly” is used in this story. No one should give me that ‘Innocent until proven guilty” crap here. That word is used to try and save his @$!t!. Not impressed.
let this ***** minister be jailed,how can he shot at somebody who is not threatening to kill u,stupid man
Shikapwasha is quite dull. He never listens when people complain that RB should not influence the judicial system. He goes on saying..
“once the case is clear, President Banda will be able to do what he sees fit to ensure that the due process of the law takes its course.”
Do the police have to wait for the president to see what is fit before they act? Shame on the MMD government, Shame on Shikapwasha!
I wish i was in that ward.I would have hit that thing called Shikapwasha and made it to lye where this young man is lying .We are coming PACT 4 LIFE
The trouble is insala, people who bother to vote are the hungry masses, while the rest of us who can access email and the web are too busy to register to vote. As a result we get these nameless VIP’s leading us.
P.S. VIP = Very Ignorant/Irritating/People in power.

What is the police investigating when there evidence that musanda shot the guy. Did musanda plan this shooting or not. You can only investigate if this a planned thing. He shot him, musonda should be in cells period. Or has he got mental problems.
