Women in Munali Constituency, say money and mealie meal will not make them forget the hardships and poverty PF government has inflicted on them.
They were responding to UPND Media Committee, member Chella Tukuta who asked them if they were going to forget all the hardships they are passing through once they receive donations from the Patriotic Front.
This happened yesterday afternoon when UPND received more than 60 members from Patriotic Front, Forum for Democratic Development and Democratic Party.
Mr Chella told the ambassadors of Change that UPND is not a tribal party and no one should be misled because it embraces everyone and that can be seen from the structure of its National Management Committee including him and many others from eastern and the Northern part of Zambia
He expressed happiness when the ambassadors of Change agreed with him that no money or gift can make them forget their struggle to raise their family and also earn a descent living.
They shouted Don’t ‘Kulaba’ , ‘Sitizaibala’, ‘tatwaka labe’ meaning we will never forget what we passed through under the Patriotic Front government while they have turned themselves into bourgeoises using tax payers money.
Mr Chella narrated his stay in detention and encounter with UPND President Hakainde Hichilema , who risked his life by visiting him at the police station ,where PF could have planned anything to harm him.
“If he was tribal would he have come to visit me a bemba? he risked his life because I know PF would have charged him with criminal trespass, am so indebted to him because he was by side when I was at my lowest,” said Mr Chella.
He said he was proud to belong to a Party that, puts the people and the country first, contrary to the Patriotic Front whose focus is power and to feed their bellies.
He also said President Hichilema possesses all qualities a leader needs and that is the kind of a President, Zambia needs.
“Meet HH in person and you will understand what kind of a person he is, this is why the PF are trying by all means to dent his image, but I want to tell you, that it will not work because those qualities he possesses are inborn,” said Mr Chella.
We await those preaching tribal antics react to Chella Tukuta story and freedom of expression
SO CHELLAH NDIWE UPND??? OH,OKAY.WELCOME TO THE TEAM MAN.BALLY FOR PRESIDENT…!! KAYA UYU NDANI AMVELA BWANJI MANJE….!!!
Chella Tukuta are you sure? Have you forgotten the slogan: “Only a Tonga must succeed Mazoka, Only a Tonga must succeed Mazoka?”
Why are u trying to clean the obvious? We know what UPND stands for. We are not going be debating that anymore. Bill 10 will fix it.
The problem with UPND media team. You are the ones still raising issues of tribalism . Your friends have moved a step further and discussing the all important bill 10. But imwe, you are still grappling with how to clean your tribal tag. Ama issues ya tribalism ni yanu ayo. Sort them out yourselves.
PF has MPs and Councillors from western, Eastern, Northen, Central, Luapula, Muchinga, NorthWestern, Copperbelt, provinces. UPND has Mps from Southern and a few from North Western. What does that tell you?
This is no different from racists who say but I have black friends. I am sure the same diasporans who support this tribal party are the first ones to pull a race card there abroad when they are asked to clean the toilets in a better way
The party itself said that only a Tonga could lead it. When I look at their presidential history, I believe that statement lives up to it. Now if that is not tribal, then I don’t know what is
If what you say is true, compete with a tonga for adoption in an constituency in the southern province, then you will know what Ieople are talking about. Truth be told non tongas are afraid to apply for adoption in southern province, they will be pushed to strongholds of PF. Watch this space
Another error by UPND media team……..Zambias have stopped talking about your tribal issues but simplyaccepted that yours is a tribal party. Just as we are learning to live with COVI19. Why are you still raising the issue? The guilty are…….
Anderson Mazoka was a good man. Not these kawayawas he left with us.
Just look at Post of VP in your party……Sakwiba Sikota, Patrick Chisanga, GBM . All non Tonga,s who where hounded out. There will only be stability in that position when a Tonga is appointed.
No amount of tribal taunts against UPND will detract Zambians from the lack of jobs, expensive living conditions, load shedding and at how rich the PF scared little men have become ……
@Kalaba, exactly the same thoughts. That is a big step backwards UPND to bring up tribal sh!t. Not the childish Larry Mweetwa campaigns again.
Let Tukuta talk through pictures, not words, he such childish when he speaks or writes. But his photographs are powerful, that we know. Photo journalism is good for both party and Tukuta.
Ruth Dante believe in our advises.
Tokota, or whatever your name is, You cannot change a zebra or leopard stripes or spots by simply painting it to a colour you want.
You seems to be very much seeking attention. If I were you, I would concentrate on making peace with the people on shosho media before the magistrate deal with your case.
No serious political party will use you after your track record of abandoning your family and positing useless pictures with a coloured woman.
Even morally bankrupt chaps like Chela Tukuta, want to lecture to us about UPNDs well documented tribal politics!
Sit down Chelah my boy
If you want to know the tribal politics of UPND ask the following!
1. Dr Canacias Banda 2. GBM
3. Sakwiba Sikota 4. Patrick Chisanga
5. Bob Sichinga 6. Late Francis Simenda
7. Late Henry Mtonga
These men were once Vice President of UPND, Not you Chela Boy

How much did hh pay for this chella’s loose backside. Not only are they tribal but they are gay too

When a person says “am not racist’, I just think the opposite. When a person says “UPND is not a tribal party” I still think opposite.
When people talk about tribal issues, PF get so agitated because they are guilty, and they know it. Can any PF person count how many non Easterners/Northerners PS’s, Minister’s, CEO’s in Parastatals or in foreign service? How many non Easterners/Northerners do you know that have been removed from their positions on National interest? Those who live in glass houses must be the last ones to throw stones…
The myth that tribalism is wrong must be done away with. Democracy allows you to associate according to tribe. What is wrong is judging other tribes harshly and nepotism. but if me as a kunda I want to associate with my kith and kin in any sphere of life, IT IS FINE. I don’t know why UPND should be victimized for having more Tongas, when UNIP only remained in Eastern province in the yesteryears no body called the people of Eastern province as being tribal. For emphasis, please note that democracy allows association by tribe of one choice, so out of ignorance don’t demise people who associate on tribal lines, as long as they don’t victimize other tribes.
Chellah you are too young to be a lackey and an Apostle of Tribalism. Leave that role to people whose intent is persecute the people of Northern, Muchinga and Luapula. The apparent infiltration by tribalists of state institutions like the ACC has simply strengthened the resolve of the Northern Zambia tribes. The ACC should not hide behind the “fight against corruption” to pursue selfish and self-serving tribal political machinations. Your handlers Chellah persecuted bembas and easterners for eight solid years when LPM was President. Come August 2021, every single vote in Southern Province will be matched by a vote from Luapula Province. Your comments Chellah, just like infantile social media campaigns will come to naught because Zambians have come of age and fully understand what is…
Sadly tribalism in up and down party is real. Don’t be fooled by bemba or lenje or even eaterner names for officials in other regions. If you check you will find that their mothers are Tonga. Trust me if you can’t speak the language you can’t get any position of power in UPND
Chella Tukuta is he the photographer?
Ati Anderson Mazoka was a good man… Just because he is gone…… When its Tonga is tribal…when its Bemba is not tribal….. Anyway Hunger knows no tribe…Continue voting for PF until Njala does you GOOD… I actually how i wish LUNGU was given a 100 year term… As for me with or without PF, i am comfortable from my efforts….. Unlike that Bootlicker KZ……………….kikikikikiki
Good luck to you Chellah. You will come back running once tribalism pounces on you. Once again, GOOD LUCK!!
Oh how I remember the good old times when GBM successfully removed Canisiuse Banda from his VP position, as we watched C-Banda fade into thick dark ashes like a burning bush, you could almost feel the big grin on GBMs face, like he had grasped the ultimate power, as he promised to deliver copperbelt to UPND and we waited and waited and nothing, absolutely nothing. Soon GBM was treated to a test of his own medicine, when UPND held secret meetings without him, good lord, you should have seen the big man literally lose weight , finished to a box of toothpicks…and so Chella the chola boy came along assuring the UPND that all is well, if GBM could finish like that, I wonder if we shall see a walking skeleton soon.
I’m breaker, I’m transcendent and I approve this message
I often laugh/fart at people who say we are suffering under PF , high mealie meal, high tarrifs , high living costs, bwetu bwetu bwetu all day, people like chella who out of his bitterness for the party has failed to explain how then Zambian kwacha happens to be the 9th strongest currency in Africa that has 54 nations, the strength of a currency is equivalent to what it can buy, like tomatoes and vinkubala, I’m saying those crying wolf are lying to you because the greener grass you see in UPND is nothing but a thick layer of green decotex paint captured and Photoshoped by our very own camera boy chella to fool some ignorant youths into thinking the 10 pointless plan exists and is the solution that the Tonga led party will use to remove their imaginary impoverished nation to greatness…
Forward since 1998 and the one to save the day is a camera man ….kkkkkkk funny..

Only time will tell. As at now remember forward
Ati ayoo, matukuto yakwa chuula Chella Tukuta . You may deny that UPND is a tribal party as many times as you want. But that statement made by one Ackson Senjani, architect of the Maphatizya Formula, in the aftermath of the death of Anderson Mazoka that only a Tonga could lead UPND will still haunt UPND for many years to come. HH has todate failed to condemn that statement just as much as he has failed to condemn the brutalizing of non-Tongas from Namwala after the 2016 elections. Go to any shanty compound in Lusaka, what you hear when people do not want to call the UPND president by name is ” niuja president waba Tonga”. Why is this so? It is because of the manner HH ascended to the leadership of the UPND that has made many people associate the UPND with a vehicle for taking a Tonga…
I was thinking you were non political.
Forward
…to state house.
Am tired of listening to you chelleh just wait you will regret
The first cut is the deepest.mrs mazoka made it crystal clear that ‘only a tonga will succeed her husband ‘
This is how sakwiba sikota and Patrick chisanga the first and second vice presidents were sidelined.
I thought he was MMD. Oh he was fired by Mumba
