Arrest GBM — NGOCC

Share

Geoffrey Bwalya Mwamba (GBM)'s residence in Kabulonga.

THE Non-Governmental Organisations Coordinating Council (NGOCC) has called for the immediate arrest of Kasama Member of Parliament Geoffrey Mwamba for beating his wife leaving her with deep cuts, bodily bruises and a stitched face.

Mr Mwamba, however, said he regrets his action to clobber his wife but said she went too far which forced him to resort to violence.

NGOCC executive director Engwase Mwale described as unacceptable actions by the PF chairperson for elections to beat up his wife and has urged the police to arrest him to answer charges in the courts of law.

Commenting on Mr Mwamba’s battering of his wife Chama on Sunday, Ms Mwale said her organisation was deeply saddened and disappointed by the conduct of the PF MP.

“We are very disappointed that we can have leaders in this country today who engage in wife beating. We strongly condemn this act. Mr Mwamba should be brought to book for the violence against a woman,” she said.

“I regret it had to happen. I acted out of impulse. It was a very small matter, which could have been resolved but she over reacted. But I love her and we love each other. Because of this, a lot of people have been admiring us,” Mr Mwamba said. [/pullquote]

She advised Mrs Mwamba against withdrawing the case saying the law should take its course.

Ms Mwale said leaders should account for their actions and they should lead exemplary lives.

But Mr Mwamba said in an interview in Lusaka yesterday that he felt sorry for beating his wife and blamed her family members of influencing her to report the matter to police because he had been chasing them from his house lately.

“I regret it had to happen. I acted out of impulse. It was a very small matter, which could have been resolved but she over reacted. But I love her and we love each other. Because of this, a lot of people have been admiring us,” Mr Mwamba said.

Mr Mwamba’s wife Chama is admitted to KPM Hospital in Lusaka’s Kabulonga area after she was beaten over a family dispute.

Police at Woodlands police station have since opened a docket against Mr Mwamba.

“You know I married from the Mwenso family and they used to have a lot of money and they have now become so broke. This is a family matter between the two of us. I come from a royal family and a rich background but we have got our own ways of solving problems,” Mr Mwamba said.

When informed that there was pressure from the civil society that he should be arrested, Mr Mwamba said anybody who wants to interfere with his family matters should go ahead and he was not moved.

“Let them go ahead. Marriage is about two people whether civil society or no civil society so what. We are going to court I will defend myself and I will give them reasons why that had to happen and that’s when they will know the truth. Tell them I don’t care. I have my own life to lead,” Mr Mwamba said.

Asked why he had not visited his wife since she was admitted, Mr Mwamba said “I don’t want problems. I know that my wife is being incited by her stupid brothers so if I go there, they may offend me and I will react.”

  1. GBM Thumbs up. You are human after all & am glad you can appologise. The problem here is the wife could have gone too far, and besides her brothers are inciting the whole thing. They are have a bone too chew with GBM but not in this way. Mrs GBM is a wise woman, certain issues do not need to be rashed to media like the brothers did. There only interest is money or survival at the expense of their own sister. NGOCC is also crap! Marrital problems are there & must be left to the couple to resolve them the way they have been doing it, any intrusion depicts betrayal from the other party. The same leaders of these NGOCC are themselves never been married & may not even understand what it means hence makes them bad advisors. Let the marriage continue, after all they love each other no doubt.

  2. This current crop of MMD leaders ,acts first and thinks later simply because of big mpuno wants things done his way , but remember big mpuno was never a founding member of MMD and by that i seriously doubt if he has even read the MMD party constitution .
    Which clearly states that a MMD NEC needs to be re elected every 5 years and the last NEC was voted in , between july 13 and 17th 2005 which means that this current NEC has actualy over stayed its mandate which constitutionaly (MMD) expired on july 17th 2010 , so the NEC that conveined to expell Mpombo and mangande actauly in leagal tearms has no mandate . so this is the window opening that they the MMD did not realise when expelling these two MP’s and as such will bite them in the but

  3. How can i respect a man who beats his wife and not only that but goes public and start dissing his wife’s family . Zambian politics ?! This man is a leader what are we suppose to learn from him? That we should revolt to violence when we have problems? The fun thing is that this man will get away with this shameful crime. If he gets reelected or doesn’t suffer the consequence of his action shame on us Zambians

  4. loving each other or not is not the issue here. mr mwamba must be brought to court. he must lead by example as he is a leader. his nonsensical comments about his inlaws is the worst kind. i believe this our mp has a very bad, bad background.

  5. What GBM has said is nothing but the usual utter rubbish of boasting.How can he say the Mwenso family are broke in public? So just cos he comes from the traditional royal family gives him the right to batter his wife? Useless!!!.I admire Mpondela,s former wife.She gave him a boot as soon as he battered her.

  6. What arrogance, I married from Mwensos, they used to be a rich family now they are broke. For this chap it all boils down to money. Iwe chikala you have publicly inflicted grievous bodily harm on your wife, and all you care about is your material wealth, how more wealthy you are than your in laws. Bushe ba GBM have you been to school, really? You are such a useless excuse for a man, am hoping you spend time mu chuks, bakupumeko ba kapokola iwe, pantu you are too full of yourself. Hope bana Mwamba should not withdraw her case, she even has valid grounds for a
    divorce settlement. Fix him, kaili him its all about money.

  7. firstly marital issues are suposed to be solved by the two people involved, and only when and if they cant solve it, thats when they call in elders and not brothers!!!!!!!
    it was maybe out of anger that G.B.M said that the mwenso family is broke in public BUT it was wrong!!
    These brothers, why are they staying at the sisters house? balekusunga ule traina karate?!!!

  8. #1 georgeWbush i just hope your conscience is very clear as you support GBM. To beat your wife of thirty years over her relatives or for whatever reason is brutality of the worst order. What lessons/legacy is GBM leaving for his grandchildren? We need to understand that prevention is better than cure. There is a very very thin line between life and death which once crossed, there is no turning back. I dont think you would support GBM if his wife were to die as a result of these beatings. Yet that is very possible. Restraint is very important and one of the cornerstones of wisdom.
    I see lots of arrogance in his statements factual as they might be. Like the Mwenso’s were once rich, he too could one day face bankruptcy and i dont think he would want to be humiliated like this by a rich…

  9. There is no excuse for clobbering a woman.

    Women must be respected regardless and clobbering them is a no no. Only PF disrespect women like this. Even when Dora Siliya appears in the media, PF bloggers are insulting her left, right and center. Is there any sanity in PF?

  10. Leave GBM to resolve his problem. I think NGOCC is wasting their time on matters that do not affect a common man. We want them to be noticed when theytalk about meaningful issues like state of hospitals, poor roads in the country, Zamtel workers benefits and other brainstorming issues. Currently there a lot cases at various Victim Support Units and Ms Mwale has kept quiet only to wake up when it involves GBM. Let us table serious issues.

  11. This whole insanity of wife battering is a PF cancer. It’s not only the so-called GBM and Willie Nsanda doing it, but the entire Marxist legion of Sata’s handpicked PF leadership. If anything, its prerequisite for leadership in PF rank and file. Sober people don’t sale. Given Lubinda has chased his wife through beatings for a tasintha girl, Michael Sata himself is know for this too so is Mumbi Phiri who does it on the husband. Actually Michael Sata’s first marriage failed because of the same chauvinism that took him to excessive wife battering.Jean Kapata was dropped for doing the same muchupo. This is why there is no Gender policy in PF.

  12. GBM li*bolo, the biggest piece of sh*it that ever walked this earth…Iwe GBM chi*kala chobe, mb*oro yako, what has the Mwenso family got to do with you mercilessly clobbering your wife? I’ve never seen such arrogance and stupidity, coming from a senior politician! God forbid, this pot bellied cu*nt ends up in Govt one day as a senior policy maker; it will be Armageddon for mother Zed…

  13. Women are a 61% electoral constituency in our country that deserve leadership respect and not battering which is institutionalized in PF as an enduring Party policy.This thug called GBM should be dropped and tamed from national leadership right now for his violance against women, and daughters all violating the UN charter against torture and violance.

  14. Mr. Mwamba’s actions and comments would be political suicide in some parts of the world, there’s no way he’d be re-elected, worst case scenario, he would be forced to resign from his office.
    A man in his position despite the fact that he’s only human should be conscious of his actions and comments both at home and in office, he has no choice as a political leader, he as a duty to lead by example. As a Zambian who feels that this country needs dramatic change on the political scene, I don’t think this kind of behavior from an MP from arguably the countries most popular opposition party and possibly future ruling party leaves much to be desired.

    **==**==**==**==

  15. Wait a minute…GBM says he loves his wife…he also says he is chasing his wifes relatives…LOVE? …I suppose GBM is saying his wife can also chase his relatives? LOVE?…He goes on to say he is rich? How rich?Here he is saying money bought him love?…I suppose he can arrange to have his wifes relatives rent some suitable ka house in Kalingalinga so she can atleast be able to ensure her family is well looked after..all of us rich peoile have done that to our loved ones… Mr Sata did that with Bishop Mpundu’s sister…. otherwise if she is an inteligent woman she cant forsake her family for GBMs wealth…is this what you call love in Zambia…. mafi…

  16. This nigga is gangsta! Ati the mwenso’s used to be rich and now they are so broke hahahaha tabomfwa ba mudala aba. I hope the two can resolve their problems and its only them that can do it. The joke will be on the mwenso brothers when his wife returns to GBM, on what grounds will they approach him then. Am sorry for his wife, its not good to batter women even when you feel like doing it so much.

  17. I hope Mrs Mwamba does not behave like all abused women, who turn a blind eye on abusive men. Before you know it she will drop the charges and will cry when it happens again.

  18. As a Bemba, I dont see anything wrong with what GBM has said. He is a member of the royal family so can beat up anybody he wants. Those Mwensos have been given brown envelopes by RB to bring confusion in that family. GBM is a man who cares about the poor people of Zambia and that is why he is a member of parliament and is in PF.

  19. So GBM is a member of the royal family? Is that really true? So the Chitimukulu is related to him but did not support his candidacy to be the MP for Kasama doesn’t that tell you something? So the old man who was vilified as being bought by some has been vindicated. GBM claims he is royal and yet had no qualms about bringing confusion at the sacred ukusefya pa ng’wena ceremony last year to further his political career. Anyways, lets hope all this kafwafwa will cause the fat bas.tard to have a heartache and will see whether his money will be able to save him.

  20. Has anybody actually heard GBM debating issues related to the economy, education, health, environment etc in parliament or does he just go and clobber MPs on the other side? In fact has he actually been to parliament?

  21. #11 Veteran – This is not only common to PF its happening in more than 60% Zambian house holds. Just condemn GBM as an individual. As for the Mwenso’s yes they are broke. I remember how Bwale Mwenso used to sponsor us at Mambilima Upper Primary for sweets using Congolese Francs. Those were the days. I also remember how Hildah Mwenso used to feed us at Kitwe’s Garnaton oh those were the days.

  22. guys lets hope they manage to settle down this dispute soon.ilyashi ya ku bedroom ya bantu babili.the boat needs to sail on.Lets not wait time pointing fingers at one another.we are all himans and no one is perfect

  23. @21 CHINGOLONGOLO, Its a pit that others are bent on of the negative aspect of a human being. Personality has nothing to do with the outshow of a being. GBM has been married for 30yrs,its not a joke! The trouble is GBM doesnt want a croud of relatives at his home & in the first place the mother-in -law is already there. Give me a break. Even if its love, there must be a limit to anything. On top of it, they are making fun of it ‘her brothers & inciting the fracas. Beating a wife is a bad thing but it is human. Even in the western cultures, couples fight but because of the weak thread on marriage values, people divorce more than than they bear children.That destroys the fabric that holds a society & culture norms that a piilars to morals in our world. Dont associoate politics to this

  24. NGOCC and all the women, Do not encourage marriages breaking up for any reason. Encourage reconciliation between two erring spouses. I am not encouraging what GBM has done but imiti iipalamene taibula ku kwesana. This a bemaba proverb to mean “two tree that are very close to each other will be touching each other” I believe GBM given time he can elaborate well and has so far apologised. Do not force that lady into believing that the marriage must go off on the basis of the beating no. Others might even thing they share the money, children and start life afresh no.Encourage people who can end up coming encorage and reconcile your children

  25. I thought I saw the photo of GBM battered wife in the POST yesterday but was too busy to open it and when I looked for it today it was gone, what happened? On the issue I do not expect anything from a dunderhead whose only reason for being in the limelight is the money he made. The man with whom you cannot have an intelligent conversation and as everybody has said what has money got to do with marriage and family. The problem is that they all have skeletons in their closets, so his Party cannot discipline him. It is a shame to beat a wife of 30 years and she ends up in hospital, real street cadre mentality. People bow to such as “Honourable”, I think this title should be srapped in the Zambian parliament because very few deserve it.

  26. …continafrom24. GBM is as human as VJ-who in his memoirs you will see that after all we are just mere beings even though others are more wiser than us like GBM-who has not even gone to school but its a pillar to the economy of zambia. Bloggers must not just rant to please the women folk. This makes them even more weaker because they will be sympathy-seekers. We need to instill in women a strong mind. GBM loves his family no doubt, but the problem as we can deduce from his seemingly unpalatable statement, the extended family is getting a toll on his life. He married Chama & not the whole Mwenso family & that means they must look at fairness in disbursing help. Not bonse,including lazy chama’s brothers. Marriage is the first institution on earth & must be protected at all costs.

  27. GBM calm down. If one has no money, broke you dont had to say it. After all indalama shilesa nokuya. Dont be too proud lesa ni mabyotola. Akakunyenene takalabwa.

  28. Some comments are very disturbing honestly how can you side with a man who is beating his own wife? And saying they must solve their marital problems themselves that’s bullshit this man holds a public post, he is a leader for Christ sake. And a felony has been committed, he is a coward he is picking on his wife because he thinks he can get away with it.

  29. Wife beaters are rallying their support for this brute of a man. I wonder how many educated people would even write in support of this man. Get home late and beat your wife , just like your evil daddies used to beat on ya mummies, I mean really just goes to show that ignorance does breed ignorance.

  30. Those of you who are condeming GBM.Dont waste your time.You are the first ones who elected him to parliament. Thats the problem with zambians.Thats what happened in 1991. you were overshadowed by seemingly charismatic oratory of one Kafupi, but it never took time before colours were seen-and you are the same blaming your own Mps,that you elect based on what – at this time i dont know. Gullibles! GBM is not born a politician, he is being made one and personal & private life has no bearing on any work he may have to do in his consistition for the betterment of this country. PEACE.

  31. you mean the fat pig is still walking the streets freely. this sumo wrestler needs to be caged. how many pipo has he assaulted and is still free. knowing hunger the wife will soon withdraw the case but this is your time to set yourself free from slavery in the name of wealth. uyu walufumo ngatombolilo needs jail bakaye metomba kumatako

  32. GBM, Solomon Musonda (MMD), Mpombo and Lucy Changwe (MMD) are not worthy to be our law makersor heading govt ministries. Where can Zambia go with wife batterers, Killers and swindlers leading us. I think we the Zambians should find away of ensuring that such culprits resign on moral grounds.

  33. Chongolongolo
    GBM is the son of Chief Mwamba if Iam not mistaken and I dont if Chief Mwamba is the Chitimukulu.And GBM cant not inherit his father cos the Bemba Chieftaincies are Luba is matrilineal unlike Lunda and Ngoni Chieftancies which are patrilineal.

  34. #34 I realise that the Chitimukulu is not the father of GBM but if his father is Chief Mwamba does that not mean that the Chitimukulu is related to GBM? I thought the Chief Mwamba had to be related to the Chitimukulu through their mothers?

  35. A touching story on marriage
    When I got home that night as my wife served dinner, I held her hand and said,
    I’ve got something to tell you. She sat down and ate quietly. Again I observed
    the hurt in her eyes.
    Suddenly I didn’t know how to open my mouth. But I had to let her know what I
    was thinking. I want a divorce. I raised the topic calmly.
    She didn’t seem to be annoyed by my words, instead she asked me softly, why?
    I avoided her question. This made her angry. She threw away the chopsticks and
    shouted at me, you are not a man! That night, we didn’t talk to each other. She
    was weeping. I knew she wanted to find out what had happened to our marriage.
    But I could hardly give her a satisfactory answer; she had lost my heart to
    Jane. I didn’t love her anymore.

  36. Sharp Shooter doesn’t that mean that GBM and the Chitimukulu are part of the same family? To be a chief Mwamba dont you have to be related to the Chitimukulu? So maybe the Chitimukulu knew what kind of character GBM was and that is why he did not want people in Kasama to vote for him. So perhaps we should not dismiss the wisdom that these old chiefs have. Am sure the women and well meaning men of Kasama who voted for GBM must be feeling ashamed of themselves now.

  37. I just pitied her! With a deep sense of guilt, I drafted a divorce agreement which stated that she
    could own our house, our car, and 30% stake of my company.
    She glanced at it and then tore it into pieces. The woman who had spent ten
    years of her life with me had become a stranger. I felt sorry for her wasted
    time, resources and energy but I could not take back what I had said for I loved
    Jane so dearly. Finally she cried loudly in front of me, which was what I had
    expected to see. To me her cry was actually a kind of release. The idea of
    divorce which had obsessed me for several weeks seemed to be firmer and clearer
    now. The next day, I came back home very late and found her writing something at the
    table. I didn’t have supper but went straight to sleep

  38. 35
    Ya Iam sure they are related thru mothers cos under Luba system,the clan(Umukoka or mukoka) is more important than the family name.

  39. and fell asleep very fast because I was tired after an eventful day with Jane.
    When I woke up, she was still there at the table writing. I just did not care so
    I turned over and was asleep again. In the morning she presented her divorce conditions: she didn’t want anything from me, but needed a month’s notice before the divorce. She requested that in
    that one month we both struggle to live as normal a life as possible. Her
    reasons were simple: our son had his exams in a month’s time and she didn’t want
    to disrupt him with our broken marriage.
    This was agreeable to me. But she had something more, she asked me to recall how
    I had carried her into out bridal room on our wedding day.

  40. #34 & 35 GBM is a son of the late Chitimukulu who was succeded by Lackment Ng’andu. In anormal succession one cannot become a Chitimukula unless he is Chief Mwamba. But all this has been disturbed by politicians who want stooges at the palaces.

  41. She requested that every day for the month’s duration I carry her out of our
    bedroom to the front door ever morning. I thought she was going crazy. Just to
    make our last days together bearable I accepted her odd request.
    I told Jane about my wife’s divorce conditions. . She laughed loudly and thought
    it was absurd. No matter what tricks she applies, she has to face the divorce,
    she said scornfully.
    My wife and I hadn’t had any body contact since my divorce intention was
    explicitly expressed. So when I carried her out on the first day, we both
    appeared clumsy. Our son clapped behind us, daddy is holding mommy in his arms.
    His words brought me a sense of pain.

  42. From the bedroom to the sitting room, then to the door, I walked over ten meters with her in my arms. She closed her eyes and said softly; don’t tell our son about the divorce. I nodded, feeling somewhat upset. I put her down outside the door. She went to wait for the bus to work. I drove alone to the office.
    On the second day, both of us acted much more easily. She leaned on my chest. I
    could smell the fragrance of her blouse. I realized that I hadn’t looked at this
    woman carefully for a long time. I realized she was not young any more. There
    were fine wrinkles on her face, her hair was graying! Our marriage had taken its
    toll on her. For a minute I wondered what I had done to her.

  43. On the fourth day, when I lifted her up, I felt a sense of intimacy returning.
    This was the woman who had given ten years of her life to me.On the fifth and sixth day, I realized that our sense of intimacy was growing again. I didn’t tell Jane about this. It became easier to carry her as the month slipped by. Perhaps the everyday workout made me stronger. She was choosing what to wear one morning. She tried on quite a few dresses but could not find a suitable one. Then she sighed, all my dresses have grown bigger. I suddenly realized that she had grown so thin, that was the reason why I could carry her more easily. Suddenly it hit me… she had buried so much pain and bitterness in her heart. Subconsciously I reached out and touched her head. Our son came in at the moment and said, Dad,

  44. this man has no respect for the law or anyone, his comments speak volumes and the royalty business makes him think his above the law. But the facts are there “he attacked a citizen and must face the law for his actions. it doesn’t matter whether he loves her or not…he broke the law and he is free to defend himself in the court of law..*****!

  45. # 44 Uwakwisano.. ililyashi liliko bad…
    it’s time to carry mom out. To him, seeing his father carrying his mother out had become an essential part of his life. My wife gestured to our son to come closer and hugged him tightly. I
    turned my face away because I was afraid I might change my mind at this last minute. I then held her in my arms, walking from the bedroom, through the sitting room, to the hallway. Her hand surrounded my neck softly and naturally. I held her body tightly; it was just like our wedding day.
    But her much lighter weight made me sad. On the last day, when I held her in my
    arms I could hardly move a step. Our son had gone to school. I held her tightly
    and said, I hadn’t noticed that our life lacked intimacy. I drove to office…. jumped out of the car…

  46. swiftly without locking the door. I was afraid any delay would make me change my mind…I walked upstairs. Jane opened the door and I said to her, Sorry, Jane, I do not want the divorce
    anymore.
    She looked at me, astonished, and then touched my forehead. Do you have a fever?
    She said. I moved her hand off my head. Sorry, Jane, I said, I won’t divorce. My
    marriage life was boring probably because she and I didn’t value the details of
    our lives, not because we didn’t love each other anymore. Now I realize that
    since I carried her into my home on our wedding day I am supposed to hold her
    until death do us apart.
    Jane seemed to suddenly wake up. She gave me a loud slap and then slammed the
    door and burst into tears. I walked downstairs and drove away.

  47. This GBM chap is all the time bosting about his money, and he thinks money can bring happiness in a marriage, shame on him. Who does he think he is in zambia anyway?, HH is 3 times richer than GBM but you never see him lining up his cars the way GBM did when he wanted to become MP for Lusaka central constituency. With riches or without marriage should be respected, he has to love and care for the wife’s feeling. This is a marital issue and we do not want to hear him talk about his riches, instead we need to hear apologies if he was wise, educated and civilised. This man should not take the pride of women for granted just because of his money, he should bear in mind that he came from a woman’s womb. Shame on Mwamba and his riches.

  48. Police Investigating PF Member Of Parliament Wife Assault Case

    The Zambia Police Service will effect an arrest on PF Kasama Central Member of Parliament, Geoffrey Bwalya Mwamba after conclusion of investigations in to the assault case lodge in by his wife.

    Lusaka Province Commanding Officer, Greenwell Nguni says a docket in the assault case has been opened and that an arrest will soon be made after investigations.

  49. # 41 Deja Vu, # 34 Sharp shooter and # 35 umubemba emwinewa chalo, Please be corrected that GBM is a Munkonge and I believe Chief Munkonge is not Chief Mwamba- I stand to be corrected on this one. Is not a son of the late Chitimukulu for sure.

  50. Meanwhile, when contacted for a comment via Telephone the estranged Lusaka businessman, Geoffrey Bwalya Mwamba popularly known as GBM has charged that only a fool can discuss his bedroom affairs in the media.

    Mr. Mwamba who is also Patriotic Front (PF) Kasama Member of Parliament is reported to be facing a possible arrest for allegedly assaulting his wife, Chama in a domestic dispute.

  51. At the floral shop on the way, I ordered a bouquet of flowers for my wife. The
    salesgirl asked me what to write on the card. I smiled and wrote, I’ll carry you
    out every morning until death do us apart.
    That evening I arrived home, flowers in my hands, a smile on my face, I run up
    stairs, only to find my wife in the bed – dead.

    My wife had been fighting CANCER for months and I was so busy with Jane to even
    notice. She knew that she would die soon and she wanted to save me from the
    whatever negative reaction from our son, in case we push thru with the
    divorce.– At least, in the eyes of our son— I’m a loving husband….

  52. Mr. Mwamba refused to comment on the matter saying it’s not normal to discuss marital affairs in the media.

    He boasted that he comes from a rich background and would be scolded by his family if he discussed the alleged battering of his wife.
    Mr. Mwamba added that he would rather discuss other topical issues other than what he described as bedroom affairs.

    According to media reports Mr. Mwamba on Sunday assaulted his wife and a police report has since been obtained on the matter.

  53. The small details of your lives are what really matter in a relationship. It is
    not the mansion, the car, property, the money in the bank. These create an
    environment conducive for happiness but cannot give happiness in themselves. So
    find time to be your spouse’s friend and do those little things for each other
    that build intimacy. Do have a real happy marriage!

  54. Shi Mpundu
    Kashimi or chachine? very sad indeed.If its true,I will love my wife for real and I will endeavour not to be a GBM and I wont even to looking at the Julias on the streets.

  55. i cant believe this *****!!!! the reason he has all that money is because his wife made it for him!!she inherited the gift for business from her grandfather!!the only thing the chap does is count money and eat chips!!!! how do u call the mwensos broke!!thy may have financial problems but are still one of the most powerful families in zed frm wat i hear !!beta watch your mouth ba mudala cause money doesn’t surpass loyalty!!!the man loves to beat his wife,its just that ths is th fst tym its in th media!!!ppl dnt knw this bagga n jst lyk to conclude!!GBM was no one in the early 90s he used to stay in a house wth no lights in kasma!!this man used to be a good man but money has corrupted him!!he has forgotten about the GOD who gave him th money and only talks about hw mch he has!!!!!

  56. my advise to you ba mudala is that it takes years to build an empire but a day to destroy it!!! pliz dnt forget to remeber GOD in everything you do and dont forget where you came from!!!!!

  57. Shimpundu , mudala ulimukali. recommend you get in touch with ba Mills and Boon you can make hundreds of pounds with this story. GBM :o , mulibalwele ba mudala. Bana Mwamba, face the TRUTH and you will be free indeed. All the best.

  58. Very nouveau rich to boast about ho much money you have. People who have had money all their lives never boast about how rich they are. It is only those who have recently aquired it and have an inferiority chip on their shoulder always talk about how much they have or how big their cars are. Also those who like to brag about their big cars usually have a small you know what.

  59. Mwamba is a typical abuser. He assaults his wife then turns around and blames her.
    Their daughter jumped out of a second Floor window in the US in an apparent suicide but only broke her leg.

  60. Guy is simply compensating … when a man talks too much or is violent, he seriously lacks… so he makes up for it… otherwise…. am sure real men understand. having money has just magnified his true nature… kwati alipanga ati nganakwata impiya bakachimona. So behold the saga continues:-w

  61. Grievous Bodily Mwamba -GBM alibe na manyazi! Afuna chabe kuziwitsa antu ati ali ndi chuma. Kodi uyu ndiye angakhale wa ku banja ya ufumu ya Wemba? Ndichodabwitsa kwambiri ngako.

  62. u think u can arrest a boss va sataanyoko imwe? mulelota fye! u arrest the man, he losses his business and your fathers loses his job! u dumb matuviz! deuces bane. naya mukushani. since last week i have taken up dancing lessons… eh some of us who have white mannerisms. nizeee

  63. GBM is gangsta so is his President,its not the first time man is reported for battering,ask his bus drivers? It was just the other year that he was settling an assault case out of court

  64. #74 He has written a paper on how to increase the participation of women in Zambian politics. He is also an astute mind when it comes to the global economy with emphasis on extractive industries and taxation. He also enjoys physical exercise besides punching his wife and anybody he detests, he is a keen swimmer, jogger and enjoys bungee jumping from vic falls.

  65. Looks like a bye election in Kasama Central since MMD controls the Courts. A custodial sentense may be mented on this PF characeter

  66. Bloggers let us not jump to conclude that GBM will ever step into that cell. Yes he assaulted his wife and yes something must be done about the matter. I do not expect even the court to send him to jail for an offence less harmful than a gun shot. People were killed in Mufumbwe and nothing has been concluded so why should GBM be jailed?

  67. Beating a wife is not a solution to problems at hand. In the same vein, enticing the wife to divorce her husband by jailling GBM is not a solution. What Mrs Mwamba should do is to just ask the court to counsell GBM if indeed she wants to continue with him as husband. She should not listen to these unmaried ladies who always cry day and night for men to marry them.

    Each marriage has problems and the two people find ways of correcting those problems so they move on in love and harmony. So let GBM be seriously conselled by ba Shimbusa.

  68. Tell MWAMBA that being Rich is relative, as the folks at POKE, a creative agency in London, want to remind us. They created something called the GLOBAL RICH LIST. Based on World Bank data, this little calculator tells you how rich you are compared to the rest of the world. By their estimate, and that applies to anyone earning £2.0 million per annum, I’m the 5,780,722,892 richest person on earth! Now that’s rich.
    As Edward Wolff, a professor of economics at NYU who studies wealth, points out that even the people we think of as being “rich and famous i.e. movie, rock and sports stars, may not be as rich as we think.
    “These are people with big incomes, but that doesn’t necessarily translate to big wealth,” he says. “Just getting it is half the battle, then you have to maintain it,…

  69. then you have to maintain it, and that takes a continuous flow of big income.” Certainly not from a hammer mill in Chinika.

  70. Imwe amunkhwele, I challenge you all, if u have never beaten your wife for being stupid then u have no relatives at your home or they rarelly stay but hers.

  71. for cops who are trying to arrest him all i can say is catch him if you can in that big house. haha chidunune mu mansion bane

  72. It would be interesting to find out what sort of marriages the Mwenso brothers are running. I hear this is a family which has been entangled in drug dealings before? With all the drugs I can imagine where the confusion is coming from. If the chaps are really broke it simply means the brothers are after GBM’s cash by hoping for nichekeleko from their sister’s imminent divorce package. I would advise GBM’s wife to stick around and sort out issues. Your brothers are probably the cause of your problems. They’ll soon be laughing at your divorce. NGOCC are the reason why most Zambian young ladies are not getting married. Take a leaf from our mothers, how did they survive so long in their marriges?

  73. The Neo Patriot,

    Yes the Mwensos were deep in drugs with Ibu Isa. Actually GBM a half South African native through his mother was peddling drugs for many years with the Mwensos. He got his money from drugs and MMD favors of giving him Kasama milling in none collateral sell which went without down payment for years of default. If anything he is the most indebted chap with all Marcopolo Buses holding a 86% value note each with a Brazilian trader. Right now he is in dangerous defaults at risk of repo anytime with more unretired obligation to ZRA who may swing into repossession. Some six month ago I had the opportunity of datamining his main business account statement. He is flaunting on a business shell finance wise.

  74. Police warn and caution GBM

    Police in Lusaka Wednesday morning recorded a warn and caution statement against thuggery Patriotic Front Kasama Central member of Parliament Geoffrey Mwamba (GBM).GBM is alleged to have physically assaulted his wife, Chama, to the extent where she has been hospitalized.

    The huge GBM is reported to have used fists to clobber a helpless wife.But when summoned by Woodlands police today, GBM vainly turned up with buses loaded with PF hooligans.The police however managed to interview him and record a warn and caution statement, pre-requisite before a formal arrest is made.

  75. Arrongant bas.tard that GMB. Jail him! If PF has any morals, they will expel this fool. However, if they are like him, they will do nothing. If they are worse fools, they defend him. A good test for them me say.

  76. What a shame Mr. Mwamba, is your IQ below that of of cricket? As a modern man, I do not condone battering, for this is the weapon of the weak and hegemonic males. Why brag about your wealth which has got nothing to do with your debased act? You shouldn’t have raised your hand on your wife if you really love her as you claim. You are an embarrassment to your so called royal blood. I think you need a brain reassessment and mind rehabilitation which can only be possible once you are incarserated.

  77. This is not about the MWENSO’s but about a man who beats his wife, GBM or otherwise. Please DO NOT divert from the REAL ISSUE and have RESPECT FOR THE MWENSO’s. Thank You!

  78. No 1-George Bush

    It is evident from your comment that you are extremely IGNORANT to the CORE if you can ‘thumbs up’ to this. In this day and age you think it is acceptable to beat a woman?? You are both evidently in need of an education and I suggest you get it quick..To iliterate (if you know what the word means) GO TO SCHOOL…

  79. Forget GBM he is only good for ladies in the pocket diggers A wife batterer is the worst kind of Guy any woman can encounter. From what others have written I hope mama has sense to see the light deeming at the end of the tunnel and seek way out. Who says happiness is only for the married eeish I feel for her. Because even uku ntonkola umunwe ni abuse pa mubili!!!

  80. this man is so full of himself,alibe nansoni to disgrace his wife like that.He should respect the mother of his children.Bachi mange icho chimudala

  81. 1ST OFF “Money Can’t Buy You Class“, TO GO ABOUT BRAGGING ABOUT HOW RICH YOU ARE IS VERY REVOLTING AND IT JUST SHOW HOW IGNORANT YOU ARE. BECAUSE YOUR WIFE UPSETS YOU, IT GIVES YOU THE POWER TO BEAT HER TO A PULP? REAL MEN DON’T TOUCH THEIR WIVES. WOULD YOU LIKE IT IF SOMEONE BEAT YOUR DAUGHTER? YOU BEAT HER AT HOME, AT THE HOSPITAL YOU CONTINUED TO BEAT HER. YOU SHOULD HAVE BEEN ARRESTED RIGHT ON THE SPOT. A MAN WHO USES BLOWS TO GET THE POINT THROUGH. YOU COMMITTED A CRIMINAL OFFENCE AND YOU NEED TO GO TO JAIL. WHEN OTHER PEOPLE COMMIT AN OFFENCE, THEY GO TO JAIL SIMPLE. YOU ARE NOT ABOVE THE LAW. THE LAW IS THE LAW AND FOR THOSE WHO SAY IT’S MARITAL, I SAY TO YOU YES BUT HE COMMITED AN CRIME. DOES ANYONE REMEMBER CHANSA KABWELA AND WHAT THEY TRIED TO DO TO HER? ZAMBIA PROTECT…

  82. ZAMBIA IT IS HAPPENING ALL OVER AGAIN!!! THEY TRIED TO ARREST CHANSA KABWELA BUT THE WHOLE WORLD HEARD AND THERE WERE PETITIONS. ALL ZAMBIANS MEN AND WOMEN EVEN CHILDREN SUPPORTED HER. SHE IS NOW A FREE WOMAN. PLEASE LET US DO THIS AGAIN AND SUPPORT AN ABUSED WOMAN MRS CHAMA. LET’S NOT STRAY FROM THIS ISSUE A CRIME WAS COMMITED. HE ASSULTED HER, IT’S A CRIMINAL OFFENCE. FOR THOSE WHO THINK IT’S OK, YOU PROBABLY BEAT YOUR WIVES. IT’S SIMPLE HE IS NOT ABOVE THE LAW AND HE NEEDS TO GO TO JAIL. WE DON’T NEED POLITICIANS LIKE HIM. HE IS A DISGRACE. HE WANTS TO BE A BOXER LIKE IDI AMIN…WHAT AN *****! NO RESPECT FOR HUMAN LIFE. YOU COULD HAVE KILLED HER. THEN AGAIN YOU HAVE DONE IT COUNTLESS TIMES. LAST TIME SHE ENDED UP IN SOUTH AFRICA WITH A BROKEN SKULL. YOU *****.
