Mission Press Director Father Drevensek Miha has described as criminal Inspector General of Police Francis Kabonde’s request for numbers of reporters from Zain.

Father Miha said such acts are proving that the police service which is supposed to be protecting people has been turned into a militia.

He said the police has become an MMD militia wing instead of serving the interests of the Zambians.

Father Miha observed that the police service has ceased to be a serious and professional service under the leadership of Mr Kabonde.

He added that the directive by Mr Kabonde requesting for numbers of journalists from Zain should be treated as a criminal case because it demands striping the subscribers of Zain their privacy.

He expressed sadness that the relevant authorities have remained quiet over the matter.
Father Miha said this in a telephone interview with Qfm.

Father Miha also said Government has no choice but to release the Valuation report of ZAMTEL by RP Capital.

He said ZAMTEL is a public entity that requires people to know the transactions involved.

He said Zambians have a right to be suspicious of the 75 percent sale of ZAMTEL shares as long as Government continues to refuse to make the Valuation report public.

  1. Father Miha!!! You’ve got a point there. Where is Dr. Musonda by the way? Pipo let’s do a citizens arrest. How possible is this? Lawyers say somethings

  2. Could all the journalists who have a mobile phone arrangement with ZAIN take out collective action against this company for breaching the right to privacy.
    ZAIN breached its responsibility by allowing a search of journalists mobile numbers by the police without a court order and hence have to be held accountable so that such behaviour does not recur in the future.

  3. mr miha pliz dont take our goodwill for granted. who do you speak for if not your italian gestapo of nazi german. why are you in zambia making noise. milingo was in your country italy you harrassed him bcos of his faith healing. you are her barking like a rabid hyena and we have allowed you. talk about homosexuality and screwing to kanpinga or young boys in the backside. shut up let zambians talk 4 themselves not you stranded refugee

  4. #7, Fr. Miha currently lives in Zambia, so if he observes lack of professionalism in police he has a right to comment because his security and that of other zambians in not assured. I really do not know how you bring in issues of homosexuality, Italy, stranded refugee, nazi germany, etc. Even Zambians who are in diaspora are able to comment on the situation in the countries they are in, the only difference is that their comments are not published in the Media. Now let us move on and look at the irrelevant good-for nothing Kabonde!!!

  5. #7 zoona man- You dont know what you are yapping about. Thisa Fr Miha has done a lot for us than your MMD and President. He has produced a film(WHAT A LIFE) which is even showing on DSTV and sponsored bands such as the Glorious Band. In Kitwe, we have some so called MMD Task Force Chairman who wants to put up some structures without Council approval. He has cartegorically told the City Council that he is only answerable to the President. The same person has told pirate taxi drivers that he will protect them from ZP and Concil harrassment. So you call this a normal way of running a country?

  6. I hear Money Bwezani Banda is about to appoint William Banda as new Inspector General to help in cleaning the mess Kabonde has created in the police service.

  7. Thumbs up to Fr Miha only non Zambians will side with wrong doers. This is the only Zambia we have and cannot let it be ruined:.

    1.0 Zamtel sale?
    2.0 Arrest of Fred Mmembe?
    3.0 Dora Siliya acquital???
    4.0 Mufumbwe violence and killing of inocent people?
    5.0 Dr Musonda’s bullet?
    6.0 Katele Kalumba saga?
    7.0 FTJ advisory role?
    8.0 Lucy Changwe bouncy cheque?
    9.0 Non payment of salaries to civil servants?
    10. RDA funds?
    11. Ministry of Health grants?

    Surely, why should people be condemned when they speak out? God help us.

  8. Fr Miha is not an Italian. he is Slovenian you are wrong my dear thats why you can not see what fr Miha is doing for Zambia .He came to zambia many years ago some of us were not yet born .So dont say bad of him.He has helped many people .I think he has the right to talk.

  9. go go go zambia police arrest this ***** called musonda. now that your boss has fired him i hope you do your job. but guys am scared it took long for rb to fire the dude maybe he was first securing his acquittal….:-?:-?:-?:-?

  10. Bai…..have ulemu for my Dad, IG Kabonde. What more do you want him to do. He is working under extremely difficult circumstances. You wouldnt even care about him & if he were fired or he resigns on moral grounds.Muletasha…naifwe kalilo!

  11. Is that the office for the IG in the picture, ala pa zed Tuleenda, this is musebanya. Let that office look professional, organised, respectable befitting an IG.

  12. nO 7 is right, our problems in the country are internal, let that Fr who has no children keep quiet, fyamulupwa-which foreigner would raise a finger in slovenia?

  13. Kabonde go now and arrest Musonda,the chap has finally been fired,But the replacement also eish,a former fired minister Namulambe,So all credible people have joined the pact for ala-bee to re-appoint fired characters

  14. No 21-Where do you draw the authority to issue instructions to the IG? That is unconstitutional and undemocratic (chiwamila galu), let the cops do their investgations and make an arrest, if need be, at an appropriate time.

  15. This Father Miha has spent a lot of his time condemning authority, something he can not do in his own country. Why do these foreigners always think that they can undermine African authority? I can assure you that as a foreigner you can’t go on yapping in a Western country. Those of you who believe he has helped you by producing ‘What a Life’ which I dont even watch anyway, shame on you. Let him try to make that noise in his country. Must we not have our sovereignity? We have enough Zambians to criticise their govt.

  16. #26 It does not matter whether Fr. Miha has Zambian citizenship. You go and obtain Slovenian citizenship and speak the way Fr. Miha is speaking here and see what will be done to you. It is true we have problems, but I care who disparages the system and how you do it. To state that the Police has become an MMD militia implies that he is sympathetic to the opposition. It also pities the citizenry in to two camps, with the other camp being antagonistic to the Police. He has now even becoming an authority on privatization.
