Copperbelt Province Minister Bowman Lusambo today came under by unruly PF cadres who denounced him over alleged illegal land allocations.
The PF cadres , who are angered that Ndola City Council has been suspended from administering land , accused Mr. Lusambo of interfering in council’s land allocation issues.
ZANIS reports that the commotion happened as Local Government Minister Vincent Mwale , accompanied by his permanent secretary Amos Malupenga together with Mr Lusambo , held an indaba over the matter with Ndola Members of Parliament, Councilors, and Council officials at the Civic center in Ndola..
During the meeting, Ndola Mayor Amon Chisenga who was supposed to give the welcoming remarks instead went on to tell Mr Mwale that he should have given the local authority a chance to be heard before coming up with abrupt decision of suspending it.
Mr. Chisenga admitted that Ndola has been divided for some time now and that what is happening is frightening.
It was at this point that Mr Malupenga interjected and reminded the Mayor that he was just supposed to give welcoming remarks and present pressing issues at a later stage to which Mr. Chisenga apologized? and went ahead to welcome the officials.
And in his remarks, Mr Lusambo said the problem at hand is the fact that Mr. Chisanga does not recognize the office of the provincial? Minister.
Mr. Lusambo advised participants to be open and honest with each other so that the root cause can be established so that they all work as a united force.
Meanwhile, the visibly annoyed Minister of Local Government said that it was sad that he was having a meeting to discuss illegal land allocations when the local authority has various challenges? that needed to be tackled to enhance the lives of people in the area.
He warned that his NCC has been suspended from administering land but that if the issue gets out of hand he will be compelled to suspend the entire Council saying it will help everyone to sober up.
has the land for the min state house has already been sought?

Ba L.T why put a question mark at the end of the above sentence?
Question mark because everything PF is questionable. Lungu? Lusambo? Kambwili? LT?
Those are PF of yours. You are sending wrong people to concentration camp at Mukobeko.
In Pf illegality is norm.
There are Zambians who sell land that does not belong to them to the chinese. When the Chinese claim the land the find themselves in court because they have been defrauded. This has happened in Kapila. There is a criminal network that is forging documents signatures of land owners. There is a case where the nephews of a late MP have been blackmailing people for land the MP had paid in full.
The cadres including Chisenga had shared land along Ndola Mufulira road. The land is meant for people to give way to the new airport. Lusambo intervened and that’s when Chisenga started the propaganda that Lusambo had several plots. I am not a fan of Lusambo but on this one he’s right
This is the development we are looking for
Bowman Lusambo is not PF, you like or not. It’s like the government brought in the chief architect of terrorist to join government. Dora Siliya and Lusambo there lepers in PF. The allegiance for these two goes to Lungu Alone not the party. And they don’t even know the party policy or they disregard it.
Lungu mocked Sata in death in the presence of Sata supporters.
The mayor of Ndola has the right not to recognize Lusambo’s office as minister Copperbelt. Even Saul when he was converted to Christianism, the apostles didn’t accept him right away because of his suspicion behavior he had in the past. Copperbelt PF don’t abandon the cast or fight which Lungu has brought at your middlest. Show Lusambo, Lungu, Kaiser Zulu, Amos Chanda, Mumba Phiri, Frank Bwalya, Kampyongo, Sunday Chanda,…
JM – kikikikikiki at party policy. Has pf got policy? Could we be having all these confusions if there was a policy. It is a question of set a thief to catch a thief. Lusambo knows all the tricks Chisenga is employing because he has been through that before. Probably this is why the Minister of Local Government has suspended the NCC. By the way why cant these fools report each other to their toothless ACC if indeed there is illegal land allocation.
About time to sort out this council. Hon Mwale just suspend the whole council it stinks!
dont brings uless issues.insted of concertrat for hh issues u satatanist.
Comment:
That so-called mayor Chisenga has even failed ever so miserably to remove street vendors from my favourite city of Ndola’s streets.
I like what MMD is doing in this govt since there is no opposition parties any more, MMD still believe in sanity I wish we brought it back to power they had a vision for the country
Comment:The Behaviour by Bowman was inappropriate.This is not the first time Bowman has behaved in that way even fuming.
Its time Bowman was stripped of the Ministerial Position and Leave him with Parliamentary Seat.
