Africa has been abused. It has been exploited. It has been impoverished by both colonial powers and now, our own ruling class, whom we have entrusted with power to get us out of poverty.
NEW HOPE FOR AFRICA
Africa shall become the world’s leader not far from now. We are already classified as the world’s richest continent and rightly so. We are already credited with the fastest growing church in the world. We are already credited with the fastest growing youth population. All the fundamental pillars that make a people to succeed are in place. The greatest deposits of minerals and precious stones are here in Africa. Africa has abundance of water, great landmass for agriculture and a vibrant workforce hungry for work. All this resource is surrounded by fauna, beauty and priceless tourism attractions.
Besides all these gifts from God, we have endured pain, depravation, hunger, poverty, disease and lack of equitable development. We have paid our price. The prison sentence of pain must now come to an end. Scripture says, “Weeping may endure for a night but joy comes in the morning.” Africa, our morning is at hand.
MAKING AFRICA GREAT
It is time that Africa took charge of her own economy. Africa is endowed with resources unmatched by any other continent on earth. We have vast reserves of gold, diamonds, copper, cobalt and emeralds of all shades. We must own these resources by adopting the unpopular policy of Donald Trump. Instead of America, we must say, AFRICA FIRST. This means that all our resources shall be managed by us.
The London Metal Exchange has no business determining the cost of our minerals here in Africa. The United Kingdom does not even have a single copper mine. To put Africa first, we must be courageous enough to create a single economic market to determine how we value our products.
It is time that Africa wrote her own books. It is time that Africa printed her own business cards. It is time that Africa sang her own songs, and I must add that it is time Africa paid her own bills. The new leadership shall demand a proper place for our continent. That is in front of the line of the continents of the world.
The stories of overcoming all odds are painted across history. In a shocking upset, young David of the bible defeated Goliath. In the recent past, Liverpool football club stunned the world by beating Barcelona when all hope had been lost. Such is life. Africa’s looming upset of the status quo is at hand, but we must invest in a leadership of morality and integrity for this to happen.
Dr. Nevers Sekwila Mumba
President,
Movement for Multi-Party Democracy
Aaah very refreshing indeed.There is hope beyond this debt burden.
Again, Zambia has repeated and awarded MMRP Indians huge chucks of land for large scale managanese mining in Mansa, Luapula province. These are the same KCM Argawal dynasty who will never ever bother to develop that area. All they will be doing is externalize Forex out of the country. When are you going to learn, kanshi? I am very disappointed with you Hon Musukwa. At leat we should have this land for our children to come in the next generation. Very sad..!
Shut up Sir. You are a total failure yourself. Nothing good has ever come from you.
I rarely read anything from Mr. Mumba because he has shown himself very deficient in character, particularly for a man who claims to be a minister of Christ. But on this statement i totally agree with him. Well said.
Honorary Doctor Mumba, you are an amazing orator. You speak eloquently and with supreme confidence. You are fairly good looking. You look clean and you are often smartly dressed. However, that is all that you are good at. You are just a smooth talker. You invigorated a nation of youths with your rhetoric. You fanned the flames….and then you sold your soul to the political devil. You have passed your sell by date. Keep quiet.
Bu he is back and he is “born again” in Jesus name…that’s all in the past he has washed his sins…accept your Christian brother!!
There we go again, no accountability. I blame the culture, on what merit did we appoint the ruling class? and after appointing them did we take responsibility?
Good writing very educative I hope you can sale your idea to ECL so he can present to Au
Spot on Mr Mumba. We are masters of our own destiny and the sooner we take charge of own resources the better.
I hope the liquidation of KCM is a new chapter for Zambia as we expect ZCCM lH to be majority shareholder in all mines soonest, on behalf of Zambian people.
Only in Zambia can these corrupt thieves like Galu and Nevers be popping up without shame …this is a guy who received a lighter sentence after he was convicted of abuse of office by the Lusaka Magistrate Court in 2018 today he is dishing out advice and wisdom…he lied his way when he stormed into ZNBC during the elections but he is the first one to quote verses from the coloniser’s bible. I am sorry I can not read your nonsense…why not talk about False Prophets like yourself who are duping fooools all over the country ad in Africa.
Jay Jay, -True, these Corrupt belly driven bandits wouldn’t know honesty, ethics or morality, even if it hit them full force in the face, whilst reading verses from their Comic, & believing in an imaginary Caucasian with a long white beard, dwelling yonder the skies.
THIS MAN OF GOLD, IS NOT THE SOLUTION TO THE PROBLEM, BUT THE CAUSE, – REMEMBER HE HOLDS A CONVICTION, FOR ABUSE OF OFFICE!
Let’s also NOT forget the Colonialists left most of Africa in the 60’s with clean functioning institutions, & Governance. Economies in Asia have surpassed us now, because of Africa leaders love using, & feeding Cadres, /cheerleaders like Nevers @ the expense of development. WHY do we have (God)Fridah??
These guys know that Zambians are gullible and docile people…you can commit any crimes (apart from homosexuality) they will welcome you even let you stand for political office our fraudster lawyer president is a typical example. Galu was catch red handed by FIFA evidence is there but ACC has not prosecuted him ..he now thinks he is innocent and wants to represent Zambia at CAF…he received a bribe of $80,000 which he ate alone now he wants some more because he is greedy…its like a python that keeps slipping through the fence to steal chickens eggs until it gets too fat to slip out through the fence and is caught and killed.
Zooona mwakamba ba mumba.muli nzelu koma
Thanks.Empty rhetoric though with almost no substance.You cant built a strong Africa with all this theft and tribalism by politicians yo! This speech was appropriate during independence now we practical,implementable and measurable steps ok sir!
Nevers maybe called names but this man is the greatest tele-evangelist Zambia has ever produced. His preaching used to move mountains! I remember the kinds of names we used to call the late Mwanawasa yet that’s the greatest President Zambia has ever had. Look at what voting for PF got us into?
How bout abuse of office, & opportunistic flip flopping from one political party to the next to satiate his own belly?
I GUESS THAT’S WHAT YOU TERM GREAT??
Wonder why Africa, /Zambia is in its current mess & stagnation??
Keep dreaming Countryman. It’s a free world, & you are fully entitled to your own definition of Greatness!!
Really laughable….Greatest tele-evangelist …he learnt from the best crooks in the business I remember his shows on Sunday meticulously placed at lunchtime when people are stuffing their faces to guilt trip them to donate to that number on the screen.The man couldn’t keep his hands off taxpayers funds when he was in Canada what more that free money from Never Mumba Ministries?
Sit down and wake up from your gullibility!!
I’m looking at the evangelism side of Nevers Mumba, not the political side. Of course his political side has been terrible. He’s a great preacher. That is undeniable. Let’s not dwell too much on the negatives
When Gaddaffi and Mugabe for over past 30 years preached about the same message Dr. Mumba is preaching,they were hated by the white imperialists.Whites used same Africans to inflict pain just as HH is used by the Anglo American.
Africans are not united by nature.They can’t stand white man’s calibration of life.
The downfall of this continent is it’s tribalism and corruption. From day 1 tribal devisions made us week and tiny European countries came and conquered us. Our selfish, self-serving, poverty mindset and corrupt leaders at all levels get away with impunity because our institutions that should be the vehicles of accountability are week and led by these same self serving leaders.
1 tribe is suspicious of the next tribe and does not understand each others way to the extent that they will even trust and give things of value to the White. chinese or indian and not another tribe person whom they have shared the land and resources in their entire past and will do that in eternity.
Well said, how about you start first by making “MMD Great Again”? This fight of yours with Mutati just shows that the two of you are selfish. With attitudes like yours, no wonder political parties in Africa are treated like tutembas. You can never be great like that. Charity should start from your mouth bambo Nevers. How do you hope to bring all these nice ideas to the fore if you are stuck on 1 O’clock on destroying your own political party? All talk and no action. Talk is cheap Mr. Mumba. Zambia is going the coalition way soon, if you dont organize MMD, MMD will never rule again like your name goes. So you want to make Africa great again, act like it!
Just like the tower of Babel. We are failing to build a country because we are devided in languages and thinking.
A learned judge lìkes chulu & Priscilla isaac facilitate election rigging knowingly. learned concourt judges are bought to throw out an election petition, the police leaders are bought to side with the rulling party, the army leaders are used to help rigg elections .A voter goes in the booth and votes for their tribesmen or a tribe that they like more than the other.Contracts, Jobs are given tribaly and corruptly and not on merrit.
It’s a series of the above tribal and corruption tendencies that cause the waste, mismanagement, destruction, inefficiencies, ineffectiveness which in turn into the bigger picture of what Africa is.
Some commentators here are a bit harsh on Dr Mumba’s clarion call. The man’s heart is in the right place , but how I wish I could share his optimism !
Even with all these from God but for as long as these leaders only know how to talk in acquired languages, while the Chinese speak in Mandarin; and for as long these same leaders continue to hold their people in disdain and with little or no respect at all, Africa is already yet again being swallowed by one foreign power, following the steps of Western powers that devoured Africa in the 1800s. Where are our leaders? Speaking English, mourning about the misfortunes of Africa and disrespecting their own people. How can others respect us if we don’t respect ourselves, if we don’t jealously guard that which God gave us for the benefit of our people?
We can do that Dr. Nevers but the only issue is division like some mentioned on here. Like they say divided we fall but united we stand, which calls for us to respect and treat each other well regardless of race. We don’t do that as Africans, we don’t trust each other and we mistreat each other. The white people you mentioned love and respect each other leading to other races crying racism. Preach to your ECL to promote unity instead of the disunity and tribalism he’s been promoting. I don’t know why Kaunda can’t man up and rebuke ECL, instead of just watching him destroy what he preached. We can’t be having GBM talk like that and everyone just watching without saying anything. All that money making GBM big headed wouldn’t be there without the tongas cultivating the land
ZAMBIA SHALL BE SAVED!!!!!!!!!!
