HH has been reduced to Kabimba’s level – Mumbi

Share

Former Patriotic Front (PF) Secretary General, Edward Mumbi, says United Party for National Development (UPND) leader Hakiande Hichilema should have engaged into consultation before going into a pact with Patriotic Front.

And Mr. Mumbi said PF leader, Michael Sata, can not make a good president because he has never been ‘even’ a Village Headman before.

Mr. Mumbi said it is unfortunate that the PF/UPND pact is going through some misunderstandings, but he added that the misunderstandings in the pact were anticipated.

He said Mr. Hichilema made a mistake to accept forming a pact with Mr. Sata because he is an arrogant man who does not respect others’ views.

Mr Mumbi added that despite people’s calls that the pact should chose a young leader for the presidency, Mr. Sata will not accept.

Meanwhile, Mr. Mumbi questioned Mr. Sata’s leadership experience.

He has since expressed disappointment that the UPND leader Hichilema has been reduced to the level of PF Secretary General, Winter Kabimba.

  1. Ba Mumbi mutekanye sana. After, u stole PF campaign money and got fired, now you are wise one? Na ngu nisebana twikute!!

  2. Iwe ka Edward Mumbi what bothers u so much? Since u are no longer PF but mmd cadre why dont u mind mmd business? Why peeping yo nose in other political party’s affairs? It seems u regret the decision u made coz up now RB doesnt know u.

  3. I sympathize with Ichilema now being taken advantage of because of his childish view of politics. Even daft lawyers like Kabimba in the absence of intelligent Jack Mwiimbu are seeing Ichilema as their mop rag. All intelligent and mature leaders of UPND like Hon. Jack Mwiimbu, Hachipuka, Muntanga and David Matongo see no wisdom in this pact and have since left Ichilema to depend of useless cadres like Garry Nkombo and Syakalima.

  4. You don’t falsify the coalesce of political entities that are fundamentally fixated on tribal agendas other than national interest. And Giftless Raheed Lubinda to say that there are just some cracks in the PF-UPND pact attributed to management incompetency is rather a very dangerous understatement.

  5. Every rational citizen can see that there are irreparable “craters and not cracks” in the so-called pact. FYI, your pact was unpacked from day one. In its current state, it cannot and will never hold any waters. It’s an empty vessel without national polity or momentum to show.

    This is a sad state of pact implosion foretold.

  6. Let’s just wait for Tumbwe to come back and take over as president or king of Zambia as he promised his victim.

  7. Maybe this comment would have made better sense if it came from someone else not M.U.M.B.I–the man does not take time to plan or think about what he is going to say. CNP proper this man. he talks because he has to say something not because he has something to say.

  8. Senior Citizen

    Talk about your MMD party’s Health Ministry’s shameful Measles outbreak which has killed 88 people and the Roads Development Agency corruption scandals and not the sponsored so-called “craters” in other parties.

    Have you no shame?

  9. Senior citizen,
    why are you jitery of people talking about PACT’s inadquacies?we told you pact was going nowhere because of its selfish leaders who have no brains to reason beyond just forming a pact.Now its time to dance wapya munzi,kekekekekeke,boooo…

  10. 1. Sata is very silent and that’s not like him. There is a deep rooted problem. The UNPD Camp is saying that “HH” will be the candidate no matter what. In the meantime Sata phoned M’membe about the editorial. Fred told him that he is just doing his job. There is another editorial coming with a lot of truth that will give Sata a sucker punch and he Sata does not want this to come out. Some people in PF want Given Lubinda to stand as Pact president. Sata is saying over his dead body.

  11. 2. Fred is fighting to save the Post. If the MMD Government ask all the Creditors to collect their money from M’Membe, then The Post is will demise indefinitely . So far the Post are finding it hard to pay workers. HH and M’Membe’e wife have fallen out over a Business Deal. As well M’Membe’s wife has said that HH is taking the party in a wrong direction and has no vision. She want his out.

  12. 3. Rupaih Banda is holding the key to all this. This is why Chiluba is being pompous because he knows Sata is not going anywhere so is HH. Banda too has realised that Chiluba has started to hurt him with his rhetoric. Some MMD chaps have tried to ask the Creditors to hit M’Membe but Rupiah has said No No… It will hit him hard on the International platform as he is currently globe trotting bringing in Investors.

  13. 4. The Obama Administration has promised Rupiah Banda a lot of Investments after he wins 2011 so are a number of USA International companies want to come to Zambia after 2011 because of Zambia’s strategic position in Southern Africa. Obama will visit Zambia after 2011 Elections. This all from the connections Rupiah Banda has from serving as Zambia Ambassador to the USA and being a Foreign Minister.

  14. 5. In the mean time, China wants to play a major role in Zambia and they do not want USA coming in hard.. After Turkish Airline, another airline will come into Zambia from another Western Government. This will bring competitions to British Airways which is ripping us with Air Fares.

  15. 6. MMD need to divorce Chiluba urgently. HH need to quit politics, he is a businessman not a politician. PF, let Given Lubanda stand as PACT President.

  16. 7. On the other matter, a Zambian won the UK Jackpot a few months ago.
    He has not revealed himself. He wants to donate £4m Stirling Pounds to MMD, Rupiah Banda’s Campaigns and build 3 Mini Hospitals and 4 Secondary Schools the areas where MMD is struggling. In other words more brown envelops to come.

  17. Zelect2011

    Who can believe your misguided sponsored conspiracy theories. Zambians have wisened up and will not be fooled by your kind anymore.

    Change is inevitable.

  18. 24# Kwathu

    True – Obama will visit Kenya, Tanzania, Zambia & South Africa
    True – Another Western Airline will launch in Zambia
    True – A Zambian about £11m Pounds Stirling and want to see MMD in Power
    True – Sata did phone M’membe about the Editorial
    True – Some PF Members want Given Lubinda to stand as PACT President
    True – If all creditors asked their money from M’membe & The Post, the Newspaper will collapse

    I am for the PACT and just trying to live with the realities. The inners top circles of the PACT know this very well. No need to hide from what is happening on the ground.

  19. This PACT thing, obviously there is a missing piece which we have been too blind to see. The PACT cannot, repeat CANNOT, have one president. This is an alliance, i.e. two distinct parties working towards a common cause. Having one president to head two parties is simply as s.tupid and ridiculous as it is impractical. If PF and UPND wanted one president in either Sata or his baby, the two parties should have merged into one and not Pacting. Either the PF and UPND, their leaders and supporters are buffoon.s or they do not understand what an alliance is.

  20. MMD is in trouble really. Why being obsessed with the PACT always? I think these guys are not sleeping. Be rest asured that the PACT is rulling come 2011. Mwanya ba mambala you will be in prisons.

  21. Given Lubinda is quiet mature and elite.After all he has been Senior member of the UPND and now PF. He can make it as President of the Pact. Sata and HH will be Vice Presidents. Mr.Sata can even be Vice President Without Portifolio since he has experience in a similar capacity

  22. Bonse nomba tulemona ati ba pact is the only way ,hearken up gents and ladies, rubbish does not exist .FALSE – If all creditors asked their money from M’membe & The Post, the Newspaper will collapse Sata did phone M’membe about the Editorial,Obama will visit Kenya, Tanzania, Zambia & South Africa
    – Another Western Airline will launch in Zambia
    – A Zambian about £11m Pounds Stirling and want to see MMD in Power
    – Sata did phone M’membe about the Editorial
    – Some PF Members want Given Lubinda to stand as PACT President.
    Where does this guy get all this crap, imaginative mind.Are you a FALSE OCTOPUS ??????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????

  23. HH and kabimba are the same both stole govt houses by virtue of their positions and bought them for a song. bonse babili makuluku

  24. the pact is here to stay, the mmd is not the altenative in 2011, they are out thats why busy tying to pull punches to stop the pact. The MMD is not an annointed party to rule Zambia forever, especially with their multiple scandals. They are going out. Period.

  25. I am happy to see the EU withhold funding for roads in zambia projects. It is excellent news indeed as their money was used to enrich RB and his crones and there has never been road development like during the KK days. Even the Lusaka City Council does not collect rubbish anymore. What type of a government is this. And yet RB is always travelling and taking the presidential jet which costs a lot of money and yet people are hungury and poor. We need change come 2011, mmd will be out.

  26. 34 you are wrong, come 2011 there shall be a Pact government in Zambia with two presidents. Anything is possible in Pact politics, after all isn’t the British High commission in Zambia run on similar lines? Only difference is that the two excellencies are man and wife, in live in one house and they genuinely love each other, unlike our HH and Sata.

  27. MMD is bitter because things are back to normal in the pact, Mumbi and friends thought our pact will break so that they can score a success on our failures. These MMD guys even started planting tribal haterage between Bembas and Tongas, which could not work. Imagine this is lack of morals the whole vice-president Kunda saying Bembas and Tongas cannot work together at this age and era what a shame. Tongas and Bembas are people who have intermarried a lot of late and this affiliation has created a great bondage in these people. Who can Imagine that Jack Mwimbu, Gary Nkombo, David Matongo etc have got some marriege relationships with people like Sata, Willie Nsanda or rather Bamba and this bondage cannot be broken by Kunda who is just human but by God who created us. Viva PACT one family

  28. And Mr. Mumbi said PF leader, Michael Sata, can not make a good president because he has never been ‘even’ a Village Headman before.”
    SO KK , FTJ, LPM AND BWEZANI WERE ONCE HEAD MEN? NO WONDER THE WHOLE ZAMBIA IS LIKE A CONFUSED VILLAGE.
