The National Democratic Congress (NDC) leader Chishimba Kambwili has unreservedly apologized to President Edgar Lungu that his statement has been misconstrued to insinuate that the Head of State is a drug dealer.
Addressing journalists in Lusaka on Thursday, the NDC leader said he has never at any given time called President Lungu a drug dealer.
Mr. Kambwili stated that the statement which he issued sometime last year which some people are referring to, did not insinuate that President Lungu deal in drugs.
“The second issue is that there has been word going around that I called or I accused President Lungu of being a drug dealer and that he deals in drugs. I want to make it clear! I have never at any given time called President Lungu a drug dealer or accused him of dealing in drugs. I have no reason to so that. I don’t have any evidence. So I have never called him a drug dealer and if what I said at a press conference I had last year concerning the issue of drugs has been misconstrued to mean that I called President Lungu a dealer or accused him of dealing, I clearly apologize unreservedly. That was not the intention, ” he said.
“If you read my statement that I gave then, there is nowhere I said President Lungu deals in drugs or is a drug dealer. So those who are using my statement to try and misconstrue things and portray otherwise, please I did not say that and I have never and I will never accuse someone of dealing in drugs who doesn’t deal in drugs and I have no evidence whatsoever.”
He, therefore, said if his statement which was in good faith has been misconstrued to mean that President Lungu deals in drugs, he unreservedly apologized to the President.
If you hang out with people like Findlay , you are more likely to be accused as a drug dealer in same bracket
WELL DONE MR KAMBILI FOR YOUR APOLOGIZES.
What a nice shirt Kambwili. I doubt your party is as nice as that shirt.
We thank him for the apology. We would just advise him to be a bit more mindful before he opens his mouth.
Tata bweleni fye ku pf
Hakainde alemubonfya fye. You will soon be dumped like others before u.
Same goes for you Kaizer
@Chiluba: leave KZ alone. No matter what’s been said about him, let’s credit his achievements as an African. Let’s not fear success but embrace and praise it.
@citizen same goes for you be mindful when you open your mouth. Let us apply Kaizer’s advice starting with Kaizer himself. It is good advice!
Kaizer for President- let us mobilize and have the true warrior at the helm. A very hard working man and loyal don of the son.
That’s what we call politics with maturity. Well done for owning your mistake and apologising.
Kambwili’s number 1 enemy is his own loose mouth. Today he’s in problems because of careless talk. I hope the apology will solve some of his problems. I said it here that he’ll soon squeal for life, aah, they have him by the balls.
We can’t rely on these politicians on
What they say.Today he is denying .
Is it politics of the Belly?
Or is it court cases?
Or is it way to get back to PF?
Maybe you didn’t but the fact that he moved around with a known drug dealer even taking him around on the presidential jet will automatically make people speculate.
