PF Deputy Secretary General Mumbi Phiri says the party is ready to provide security to President Edgar Chagwa Lungu and will look after him well than the Police.
“We call on the Police to give us a go ahead to protect our leader if they have failed. President Lungu is not just the Republican President but leader of the Patriotic Front (PF) and we have a very strong Party Security,” said Ms Phiri.
Speaking during a media briefing at the PF Secretariat today, the ruling Party DSG said what transpired in Mongu over the weekend when Hichilema and the UPND obstructed the Presidential Motorcade in full view of the Police shows how unprofessional the Police service is.
She said for how long will the ruling PF be expected to restrain from reacting to the UPND’s continued provocation and anarchy.
Ms Phiri stated that the party is saddened at how the opposition leader could have their own Security Officers outside Hichilema’s Vehicle side by side and yet the window to President Lungu’s Vehicle was wide open without a single office on the door side.
“Why was the window to the President’s Car open? The road was very narrow but HH’s Car had Security outside his Car, how come as per normal procedure under those circumstances, the Presidential vehicle was not accorded the protection it deserves?” asked the PF DSG.
“We have been guided by a qualified Doctor at the Chainama mental health that Hakainde Hichilema is suffering from metal disorder. We will not give room to Hakainde to destroy this Country” she added.
And LUAPULA Province PF Chairperson Nickson Chilangwa has charged that UPND leader Hakainde Hichilema should be considered as a danger to national security following his provocative stunt in Mongu.
Mr. Chilangwa who is also Luapula Province Minister said Mr. Hichilema’s refusal to give way to President Edgar Lungu’s motorcade on Saturday posed a security risk to the Presidency.
He said Mr. Hichilema had insulted the Presidency which was a depository of the country’s pride and values.
Mr. Chilangwa said what Mr. Hichilema did bordered on national security and should not be taken lightly as it had consequences.
Mr. Chilangwa said Mr. Hichilema’s behavior had proved that he was a politician who had no respect for the office he was wishing to occupy.
“For now Zambians must treat [Mr] Hichilema as a danger to national security because of his provocative behavior. What kind of democracy is Hichilema practising if he can’t respect the highest office in the land? What happened in Mongu should be stopped immediately, ” Mr. Chilangwa charged.
He warned that if nothing happened to control Mr. Hichilema’s behavior, national security would be put at greater risk.
“Hichilema is pushing his luck too far by by attempting to block President Edgar Lungu’s motorcade and consequences will be too ghastly for him to contemplate. We can’t tolerate it any more. Enough is enough, ” He warned.
Nonsense how does the government of the day detarch itself from the state police??
Mumbi is right. Lungu should rule with an Iron fist and accord UpND and HH the same way Kaunda accorded people that opposed him.
Lungu being a democrat is being ridiculed and the motor car scandal is the last straw for a lot of the neutral Zambians.
Zambia does NOT need UPND and HH – who is using every means available to him to avoid a convention.
Its time for change
Thanks

The real tragedy in our nation today is that the president has chosen to surround himself with the lowest calibre of advisors at both party and national level. Incredible when you consider the greater pool of talent to choose from across the whole country. But then again that talent would tell him the truth while he wishes for hero worshiping.
Speaking as one who used the road to Limulunga quite recently, the road is so potholed that one would be lucky to drive at 20 km/h on a normal day let alone on the day of the Kuomboka with hundreds of other motorists and thousands of people on foot. Yet Mr Amos Chanda in his statement said HH decided to drive slow so that the president’s motorcade would catch up with him.
With the talent I speak about as advisors, state house and the police…

This would immediately have put an end to the noise and speculation while investigations would be carried out quietly to see if there were any security lapses.
In this one the Police lamentably failed the test for protective security service of providing impermeable physical security to a vital State asset. They exposed the state President to clear and present danger all at national risk. What justification has IG got to continue in his position when all he can offer is this vulnerability?
Hichilema’s stunt was the most reckless and self exposing i could ever think of. Presidential protective security is empowered by the law to take down any clear and present danger to the physical security of the President in any scenario.
Very stu.pid. Only a f.ool would utter such nonsense.
Sad and dangerous statement from a senior officer of a ruling party accusing our gallant men and women in uniform. Insecurity breeds mistrust.
It is folly to think that a group of untrained, undisciplined and jobless political cadres can protect the Presidency better than our national security. The Police knew exactly what they were doing and they divulged information on the need to know basis. At this point Mumbi does not need to know.
Polishing up the botched photo-shoot somewhere in the South of Africa; perhaps!
Lungu’s tolerace of HH is the right treatment for a toothless irrelevant Mumbwe looking for attention. What HH is praying for is for Lungu to get him arrested.
I knew this kaminamisa has more virotic and vulgar language which can only be exceeded by @Mushota, I didn’t know dictatorial demagoguery is also one of her virtues! As for Phiri wait until any other winning party treats you with the same pomposity! Priceless!
Pf is the most usless party. Unfortunately humwine fails to inspire masses.
Try to put somebody like charles kakoma..the looks cool .compossed and national in character.
Me for one am fedup with pf. But Humwine and millie meal boy the dont inspire confidence
Humwine and millie meal boy have same intellectual capacity and the two clowns cant run a country.
We want upendi but no under current top leadership
@Junior Citizen:
Your head must be full of faeces and urine for you to be think like that!! Thief Lungu does NOT own Zambia and those Roads in Zambia are for everyone!! If you were sensible, which of course you are NOT, you should have read Dickson Jere’s analysis of the situation instead of always fa.rting and speaking nonsense.
For the benefit st.upid PF Cadres including you Dickson has cleared the air that the Zambian President generally moves in four (4) distinct ways, which everyone should take note: (1) private, (2) semi-official, (3) official and (4) ceremonial. So I want you to read the whole article and get REAL facts into your sh.it head!! Your mother should have conceived you just a day before her periods started – scum bag of wasted sperms!!

in full view of the Police shows how unprofessional the Police service is. Ba Mumbi Phiri please be careful with what you utter in anger. UPND were wrong but for you start saying the police is unprofessional is not going to be good for you soon
Government is failing to display maturity, it’s the oppositions job to point out your failures, it’s their job to irritate you, it’s their job to expose your weaknesses, it’s their job to expose you as long as it’s done within the law.
The presidential motorcade should have Waited for the road to clear before speeding out. Lots of incompetence on the part of the presidential escort here.
Knowing very well Western province is an opposition strong hold, much wisdom should have been applied in planning the event.
Government should take responsibility and own up to its mistakes.
My opinion is Lungu’s own people let him down.
HH suffers from delusions of grandeur. He is a mental case
The fact is HH is supposed to show maturity.
He should not be careless and allow even children to consider themselves more mature than someone who eishes to rule the nation.
HH is capable of behaving better than he is doing.
Even the last kicks of a dying horse are far better that HH’s behaviour.
It is not our problem that his political career is coming to an end without achieving his ambitions.
Honestly, I don’t understand this whole madness blaming HH. Why are you not blaming the police or Presidential security team? They should have ensured the road was clear at least an hour before ECL was going to use the road. Did they ask HH entourage to get off the road? Nowhere have I read that he was asked and refused. All I hear is incapable security team discussing option how to or not to hit his vehicle. I am sure they knew they were not right in the first place, and any action would have raised an outcry. The security failed, and its not HH`s fault as he was being overtaken by ECL, was he told to clear off the road? This whole saga is unheard off, can only happen in Zambia. Both PF and UPND, we are fed up with your childish behaviour and lack of leadership
Mwaona manje a Kabimba, the militia you trained in sudan are coming to haunt us.
WAR DRUMS ARE SLOWLY TOLLING.
For the first time we can smell blood in this country.
SOONER THAN LATER SOMEONE HAS TO PUT HH UNDER CONTEXT
========================================
I have repeatedly warned y’all that HH is lawless. It’s only less than 9 Months when Chagwa gave this guy another political whip at the ballots and he is still acting bonkers! Jail this little piece of trash so we can achieve a little calmer of ice cold chilling shwa shwa shwa. I miss KK and FTJ. The duo would have already put this coward into context. Give him a law whip.
All these accusations by the PF are nonsensical. Like most well-thinking people have already said, where were the police sweepers with their BMW cars and motor bikes? And where was the so-called President rushing to because he spent close to an hour while the Nalikwanda was still doing the traditional rituals of docking? Where was he rushing to? Didn’t he have his so-called security on the Nalikwanda to brief him on the exact time of arrival at Limulunga? Ahhhh… Lungu is certainly CHILDISH. TRY TO GROW UP MR PRESIDENT! EXCITEMENT OF BECOMING AN ILLEGAL PRESIDENT, IMWE SI ISILA? REALLY, GROW UP, YOU ARE MORE THAN 60 YEARS AND YET YOU BEHAVE LIKE KENNEDY KAMBA WHO WAS MOST WANTED IN BOTH MONGU AND LIMULUNGA?
@Thorn in the Flesh, completely two different worlds between KK/FTJ era compared to current environment. The KK era was called, one party state and Kaunda was “wa muya yayaya”. FTJ`s world was that of recognising that power was sweat and was bound with making a revenge to KK.
The current world of ECL/HH is different in that we are learning to be democratic, apples and oranges are not the same.
BTW, your PF has no justification for locking their HH, if there was any valid reason, I tell ECL will not hesitate. I am sure he is already setting up the trap for HH, this incident is just one of those first steps in that direction. He is building up a case.
DEMOCRACY DOES NOT ENTAIL LAWLESSNESS.
========================
Listen to this quack with his low sense quackery comment. I put it to you that this is not over. Police, RTSA and law makers and enforcers must align HH to his status; as a mere citizen. Otherwise the country will be plunged into a nasty chaotcic scene. Is ECL so weak to tolerate HH’s folly? By the way, I have waited for 9 months for a punitive action against the indiscriminate harassment of ECZ by this hooligans.
I am afraid PF might have killed HH and his family! Whats happening is really worrying and .
From tomorrow on wards there will
be a curfew in all major cities after killing my president.
People of Zambia lets unite and remove this barbaric regime.
YES! THERE MUST BE A STOP TO THIS NONSENSE FROM HH. HH HAS GOT NO MANDATE FROM ANY ONE IN ZAMBIA- NOT EVEN FROM HIS OWN PARTY. HE HAS NEVER BEEN ELECTED TO ANY POSITION AT ALL. THEREFORE, HE IS NOT ANSWERABLE TO ANY ONE BUT TO HIMSELF ALONE. ECL, IS ANSWRABLE TO EVERY SINGLE SOUL IN ZAMBIA. AS SUCH, IN ORDER FOR ECL TO PERFORM HE MUST BE PROTECTED BY ALL ZAMBIANS AND ALL SECURITY WING MUST ENFORCE THIS RESPECT FAILURE TO WHICH THEY ARE IRRELEVANT AND THEREFORE NOT EVEN SUPPOSED TO BE THERE. IT WAS A BIG LATE DOWN ON THE PART OF SECURITY THAT THEY COULD NOT PROTECT THE PRESIDENT. THE WHOLE POLICE INSTUTION IS ROTTEN.
Ranting and raving lunatics
Some decades ago at primary school, teachers used to warn us to ignore foolish elements because whenever you engage yourself with them by-passers will not notice the difference between the two of you, you will both be seen to be fools. This is exactly what Lungu has been doing, tolerating HH. But one day the humble river will burst and a lot of lives will be lost. Is that what UPND stands for? Just to go to statehouse?
Pathetic Fascists! Nothing good will ever come out of PF. They are now saying their very own PFolice is unprofessional – as if we did not know that! This is what you get from recruiting numbskull PF cadres into the police. Zambia is so mediocre!
WELL SPOKEN MADAM MUMBI PHIRI.
THE POLICE MUST INVESTIGATE AND FOUND OUT WHO WAS DRIVING HAKAINDE AND THE DRIVER’S LICENCE MUST BE REVOKED AND SENT JAIL TO ROT IN PRISON LIKE MWALITETA.HH IS NOT THE PRESIDENT OF THIS COUNTRY AND THOSE THAT ARE FOLLOWING HIS INSTRUCTIONS WILL END UP BEING IN PROBLEMS.POLICE SET THE EXAMPLE ON THIS CASE.
WHAT HAPPENED WAS VERY SAD AND THANK THE PRESIDENTIAL GUARD HAS TO RESTRAIN THEMSELVES.
HH AND HIS THUGS CEASED TO BE POLITICAL PARTY A LONG TIME AGO,THEY ARE NOW A REBEL AND TERRORIST GROUP AND ZAMBIANS MUST BE AWARE OF THAT.
WE HAVE NEVER SEEN SUCH A THING SINCE KAUNDA’S DAYS.
SURELY,WHAT HAS GONE WRONG TO HAKAINDE.
@BJ you are speaking like a real f00l you are! who was the first to go between your Edgar and the real President? The real President went first but on that road going to Limulunga it is not wise to drive fast especially your own vehicle. the road is very bad but because Lungu was using a government vehicle and without care if it is destroyed or no (fya Boma mentality) decided to cruise and caught up with the real President and you *****s want to blame the real President! matole yenu!
Foolish thinking instead of firing the IG if he is found guilty you start bringing no sense. You are brainless. You must be droped if this statement is true. Can you leave the work of the spokesperson to speak unlike you brainless woman. Do you even know anything about security. You think a cadre can stand an ambush.You want to risk our president more than HH. Join upnd.
No. Wrong!
That’s not true; and it is illegal and ignorant.
So HH is even being blamed for Lungu not closing his own vehicle’s window! Lungu sent his 600 policemen in advance to Limulunga and left himself exposed in the open road. Thank God, Lozis are so civilised and cultured unlike those Manyai in Shiwang’andu.
The purpose of a political party is to get their candidate elected after which the official becomes a government issue.
The people responsible for the security of a sitting president are the best of our security services. Mumbi has just told the world that our secret service is incompetent.
Mumbi’s utterances are a clear testimony of how disorganized our system of governance is: every yoyo is an expert in matters which they are not trained let alone experienced.
Mumbi should know because it is her and her ilk who have stuffed the security wings with their own incompetent tribesmen. That’s what you get from Wakos.
No need for such wild statements meant to incite. The matter is in police hands, let them do their job without due influence from PF cadres
Such careless statements from PF officials can plunge a nation into civil war. Mumbi phiri should be one of the dullest politicians this country has ever produced. We know PF and ECL are choking with envy over the crowd of people that welcomed HH at the recent kuomboka ceremony, they think HH stole the show which ECL should have enjoyed. Unfortunately Zambians are now feeling the pinch of PF poor economic policies. Look at the price of mealie meal compared to to the K35 they found it at, price of fuel, electricity tariff etc…………………….
It started like this in Rwanda, Kigali those who were ruling thought they were more powerfull ,but when war started the whole Rwanda was dead. Paul Kagame of the so called minority come out victorious defeating Government soldiers and French troops. War has nothing to do with Numbers but a strategy. In Zambia we need a fight so that we can respect each other it is too ku delelana.
What Phiri is saying can start a civil war and not what HH did?
Tyranny: The statement from Mumbi has come out of the foolishness of the person you are supporting. The greed and Anger and wickedness and bitterness being portrayed by HH and GBM are acts that can bring civil war in this country. What makes someone to be jailed is because they would have committed a crime. What has made Mumbi to say that is because HH and GBM did an act that needs a response. You are busy criticizing Mumbi and not the cause. do you guys really want civil war in this country? uuuh God help us. You behave as if you do not read and watch on many news channels the consequences of this devil you are busy worshiping: Civil War!!! HH and GBM messed up period. They went to Mongu to show off. Three provinces against seven. Please let us promote unity and not such acts. Miyanda,…
Ctd Miyanda, Mulongoti (apparently he was against the number of policemen in Mongu. I am sure now he understands the reason), Mwaanga and other senior politicians kindly provide your own views and help me understand such behavior.
flag CIA(operation black eagle) just because you cannot pleasure your wife, is no reason to wish war on majestic Zambia. We are too intelligent for such barbaric acts acts=civil war.
PF think that because they control the military (that they have stuffed with their relatives) they can overrun other Zambians. Unfortunately, AK47s are dirt cheap these days. And PF flaisova catcha (as shown on the Road to Limulunga) relies on zero intellectual effort and planning. PF will terribly regret the genocide they are planning.
HH MUST SUE THIS PROSTITUTE
MUMBI PHIRI RANTS AND RAVES LIKE A RABID DOG. LOCK UP HH WHERE? CAREFUL MUMBI WHAT YOU SAY TO SAFE GUARD YOUR PARTY POSITION. TICK TOCK TICK TOCK THE TIME IS SOON HERE FOR YOUR RECKONING THEN WE WILL SEE WHAT YOU ARE MADE OF. COW.
HH is going down
The Problem with PF is that it is so dysfunctional and fragmented with too many spokesmen. What does Mumbi Phiri know about the security details when Lungu is attending a Ceremony like Kuomboka? Why was the Road not cleared for Lungu? Lungu’s Vehicle Window was open so that he could have a Full View of HH being assassinated. Lungu just like the violent KZ is a Sadist who enjoys seeing blood being shed. The Western Movie Drama was chereographed by Criminal KZ. Lungu is desperate to retain power in the face of a fatal Petition. In a proper Court, Lungu knows he will lose the Petition and Power. Illegitimacy and the Petition are haunting Lungu and his fellow Criminals big time. # Let the Petition be heard in Court.
Zambians will respect a leader they prefer who accords them respect too. Lungu and his PF should not take Zambians for granted by posturing as leaders when they impose themselves on Zambians. The respect HH is accorded wherever he goes is not by mistake. Its a reaction to what PF leadership has subjected Zambians to violence and killing of innocent citizens without justice to the victims. This effectively explains why PF want to house arrest HH and harm him as is the standard of PF rule. PF should earn its own respect.
State house is not PF property! Unfortunately PF think State house and all institutions are PF property. This is the only reason logic is failing the PF team. No wonder they have been hallucinating about the re-introduction of the one party state and this has KK’s blessings! Please don’t blame PF police lapses in security protocol on innocent road users! Was it HH who was driving? Looks like we have an outbreak of lunatics in this country! This explains why the thought of remaining part of ICC is troubling them! Grow up!
Where were traffic officers on motorbikes who normally clear the way whenever the president is travelling? I think this incident was well crafted right at state house in an attempt to arrest HH. The president also should have used an helicopter especially after considrating how busy the road was on such a day. We hope to see improvements during umutomboko ceremony…………….
this sillydrunk woman with legs like spokes..who does she think she is..Zambia is bigger than her party..let everyopne enjoy their freedom..where was their police when that happened..?
I am convinced this was a deliberate move by PF government to come up with a reason or excuse to declare a state of emergency! Don’t our PF police know the security protocol when moving and handling all presidential movements? With our roads becoming more crowded with vehicle traffic, we need to come up with more intelligent ways of doing things! Our presidential motorcade kills a lot of innocent pedestrians because of poor policing! Unfortunately it is all done in the name of security and no one sees anything wrong with that! The life of a president is not more precious than anybody else’s in the eyes of the creator! All Life is precious in The sight of the creator! Learn to have Love in your hearts you heartless people!
Just cage this rat Kaponya (HH) and his minions
For heavens sake HH fumbled and if he has advisors let them tell him that he has failed and he should develop a sense of responsibility on himself firstly, on his party officials/cadres secondly and on the whole country thirdly. How the hell does a party president attempt to block the Presidential Motorcade with impunity? Does he know that failing to give way to a Presidential Motorcade is a serious offence that can lead him even to jail if not being shot on the spot? If he was harassed he was expecting to draw headlines instead of people watching and enjoying the Kuomboka Ceremony! HH can not take Zambia for granted. He failed to prove a point in CONCOURT over the pertition that his votes were stolen within the stipulated 14 days and it was checkmate for him and the UPND!!!!
HH is…
Just another ranting cunt! How can being overtaken count as blocking? Have you seen the pictures? Was HH parked across the road? You scumbag!
How come all you people are saying something that does not make sense? Have u watched the clip? If so what do you see there? Mr Lungu s people are not doing him any good. They actually don’t love him hence allowing him to be treated as such. Bug to say UPND erred that is not correct. You people learn to look at both sides of the coin. We are being fed information only coming from one side. To balance this, accord UPND to also say their part then we can make informed decisions all of us. For me I ghink PF need to sober up. It’s a shame that they have decided not to allow the petition to be heard when the constitution allows for this. Mr Lungu illegally remained in office durinvvthe petition and was busy preparing for inauguration, hearing stopped suspiciously, swearing was…
I still dot understand why de POLICE are so quiet…….what are they waiting for, why are they taking time to arrest this under five called HH.
I thik it’s high time that the PRESIDENT should retire and fire some of the POLICE guys, dis is too much and nonsense
Over this one heads at Force Headquarters should roll, notwithstanding the consequences to HH’s security party and HH himself. Just one question, why was the window to the President’s car, open? The President himself does not control anything in such situations, so who was responsible for having the window down?
https://www.lusakatimes.com/2017/04/10/video-footage-hh-president-lungus-motorcade-incident-mongu/
@One Zambia: since Lungu does not know why his vehicle’s window was down (was he drunk?) maybe you should ask HH who probably was driving Lungu’s vehicle! At least HH has answers.
What does one expect from the calibre & nonsense sitting in the nest @ State House like Dull Mumbi?
As we speak Kaizer an extremely Violent man is still squatting & “advising” in State House, whilst the so called Investigation enters its second month, despite all the Witnesses @ Disaster Stadium.
P.F IS A DISASTER FOR ZAMBIA, & WITH ADVISORS LIKE THIS, I WON’T BE SURPRISED TO SEE CIVIL STRIFE IN THE LAND!!
I agree with Senior citizen that you can’t allow the president pass through a convoy of another politician, he should have left HAND pass or use an alternative route even clear the way. IG has terribly failed. If anything HH and group are harmharmless
I meant they should have left HH pass and allow the president later. The president is the most powerful in our nation and thus shouldn’t use unnecessary power on small issues. What was the OP doing and all the security wings to allow HH and Lungu a near collide? Did the president just want to embarassy HH? I can’t figure out what happened!!!!!!
There was no near collision. All this was orchestrated for a photo shoot. Where was the Presidential security detail that normally clears the way?
“We call on the Police to give us a go ahead to protect our leader if they have failed. President Lungu is not just the Republican President but leader of the Patriotic Front (PF) and we have a very strong Party Security,” said Ms Phiri.
This country is truly lead by dunderheads..how can such utterances be tolerated. Does this silly woman know what the Office of the President is? How can a lawyer like Lazy seat there and watch his juniors spew out rubbish like this. If you want to protect Lazy 24/7 let him resign as President then you can protect him with PF resources if you will have any to even feed yourselves.
Jay Jay we call that waffling the chap is a riff raff
The whole issue is exposing the Police and the government failure.
The over 600 police who were sent to man the ceremony what were they doing in Mongu?
Where were the sweepers on the Presidential motor cade?
This country is for everyone not one political party?
Pictures and videos are there to see by everybody so va mumbi where is the Presidential vehicle being blocked?
This propaganda will not help us delver to the people what you promised them.
It is clear that HH has a following and any attempt to harm him will cause serious problems in the county.
The only solution is to have the courts allow the petition to be heard so that the matter is settled otherwise you can not force yourself on people and expect people to respect you.
Sudan these are not professionals but riffraff’s in uniform even the way the hold the riffles you can tell that they are from bus stops and latter given uniforms please do not think that true servicemen and women are happy with this muppet show happening in our country they really embarrass the state loyal service men and women a day of reckon will surely come and the mangwams will be sorted out no wonder they killed a gallant soldier over a simple accident a roll call will soon be made
When PF cadres went to endanger Linda Kasonde’s life at the LAZ secretariat, it was not an issue and Mumbi Phiri was as quiet as if she does not exist. Mumbi, let me educate you, everybody is equal before the law, the guy who overtook HH’s motorcade at Kuomboka and Linda Kasonde are equal before the law. so cry for both
You have a small brain floating on Water.
Mumbi is a stinking bitch…….
No one should even pay attention to that well known pro.stitute Mubi Phiri. What protection can Max Chongu and Kamba give to Lungu. Mumbi was speaking go the gallery – she is no better than a toilet for men because anyone can pisi in hers so long they have a pr.ik!!
Mumbi Ecl saved hh OVAL HEAD life. It was Ecl who issued an instruction to hold fire. This under five would ‘ve been dead by today without a state funeral. OVAL HEAD must thank HE the republican president for saving his life. He should from this day go and kneel to the kateka and thank him. His political career could ‘ve ended in a sorrowful way. And these cretins here are busy ignorantly supporting what their tribal leader did. You people are cursed.
Totally idyotic African thinking! That’s why Zambians need the ICC to protect them against the gun-wielding idyots in State House.
If you look the education profile of PF leaders you can understand why they say things the way they say them. Three-quarters of them are mere grade 12s with some additions of Matero certificates. That’s why they can create a generative theme out nothing. For example, the ICC, Mongu-Limulunga issue, 7 years term, third term and so on and they take turns issuing empty threats. The do not know what to occupy themselves with other than petty issues. Can you confine HH to his residence we see if you really mean business?
I AGREE WITH SUDAN.WHERE IS THE FOOTAGE OF BLOCKING.AND WHERE WERE THE SWEEPERS ?I DO NOT THINK IT IS CORRECT TO BLAME UPND IN THIS MATTER.PROBABLY THE POLICE SHUD HAVE SWEPT ALL THE ROADS BEFORE HIS EXCELLENCE ARRIVED
Our beloved president is misled by the likes of this woman jezebel way of thinking
When PF cadres went to endanger Linda Kasonde’s life at the LAZ secretariat, it was not an issue and Mumbi Phiri was as quiet as if she does not exist. Mumbi, let me educate you, everybody is equal before the law, the guy who overtook HH’s motorcade at Kuomboka and Linda Kasonde are equal before the law. so cry for both
Probably she has confined her husband at their Sunningdale home . Or is it house arrest . Anyway she can go to court for a warrant of house arrest.
Remember An Sung of Burma was under house arrest.
The Lord need to save us together with Mrs Mumbi Phiri and Her husband.
Let us pray for Zambia

Can we have better way of developing this nation than dwelling on two people or two parties ? Africans must believe in themselves and cease to be dependant on foreign aid.
just get rid of Police IG, why do people want to always find a scapegoat with things that are straight forward. That is police failure period. Hichilema this hichilema that is immaterial for now
The desperation by exhibited by HH is nothing but psychopathy disorder, HH’s brain is rotten and doesn’t know were he is and what he is doing. Zambians did not ask this ugly chap to borrow millions of dollars he spent on the campaigns and the elections he badly lost, he did at his own stup1dity!
13 million Zambians know and are happy with their President EDGAR CHAGWA LUNGU, and what HH and his nephews are trying to portray is that he wants someone to blame for his death.
Let HH and his UPND nephews realize that he has touched a very dangerous button, ECL is more than loved by Zambians and anyone who tries to plays tricks on him cannot last! HH, you have started fire you cannot quench.
The DSG is looking beautifull a pure african menu , but TASILA is very quite after winning chawama councillor say something mama 2021 is just tomorrow we are behind you
Came on Mr president even the late levy would fire any1 for issuing wrong statements.Why is it that in this party any1 can stand and issue sensitivity statements.
It’s a well known fact that when the presidential motor carde is passing no other vehicle is allowed to move. We have all seen in that video that even the attempts by sweeper cars to force the retards to park they did not heed to that but instead they continued driving .
We want to ignore this retard supported as HH but I think he has crossed the red line.
What calibre of Police Officers did the Inspector General assign to administer the security of the Republican President in Mongu? What security reconnaissance measures did the Police take prior to a Presidential Mortocade drive on the route to Limulunga? At what point did the Police relax their security system to let HH and GBM snick into the arena at Limulunga? Did the IG actually monitor the performance of his Officers in Mongu? FOOD FOR THOUGHT!
The fact is HH is supposed to show maturity.
He should not be careless and allow even children to consider themselves more mature than someone who eishes to rule the nation.
HH is capable of behaving better than he is doing.
Even the last kicks of a dying horse are far better that HH’s behaviour.
It is not our problem that his political career is coming to an end without achieving his ambitions.
Shut up prostitute! Who are you to talk about H.H.? Useless you dog. Even if Lungu is Lungu is your man friend you are very stupid
The fact that HH was told to go ahead first, it is police to blame. Police should have alerted HH to move faster so as to avoid this. Police should also learn to escort Lungu with motor bikes that go ahead to clear the way and alert people.
Former Presidential Press Aid Dickson Jere has explained that whenever the president is travelling officially, the route is cleared way in advance.
Jere who is clearly more intelligent than what is currently obtaining at State House was commenting on the incident where Lungu’s handlers failed to secure the road for him in Mongu.

Fellow country men and women, the level of anger and hate speech in our nation is worrying. Let us not cheat ourselves. If Edgar or HH is hurt (God Forbid), there will be no winner. We all stand to lose and at the end of the day many lives will be lost. It all starts with neighbour rising against neighbour the way it all started in Reanda! To Mr President and those close to him, LOVE is the only thing that establishes a presidency! HATE diminishes it. Mwanawasa was called all kinds of names – Cabbage, muwelewele, etc and suffered all kinds of humiliations at the hands of Sata, but we never saw the kind of hostility and state brutality PF is using on all its perceived enemies. We want the current president to succeed and leave a great legacy. This will not be achieved through the methods…

This will not be achieved through the methods PF government is using today of oppression. What PF is doing is not different from what the colonialist did to our forefathers. The buck stops at the President! He can initiate the peace process. He must start to embrace all citizens. Love your enemies. Do good to those who may be giving sleepless nights so that there may be brotherly love again in this beautiful nation. It is very easy to say we go to war as some are already saying but do you know how wicked war is? Have you ever survived on grass? Have you ever been in a situation where you have to run for your life with bullets following you? We must be kicking in a very bad way. We should never take that route I pray. It all starts with hate manifested through injustice where you exclude…
It all starts with hate manifested through injustice where you exclude certain ethnic groups from the economy. When people are made to believe they are nothing but second-class citizens, that becomes the point of irritation which leads to what we are going through now. We plead with those in the driver’s seat of this country to be more magnanimous, to use words that work towards building unity and peace! Let justice and love be without partiality. My citizenship is what should count and not my political affiliation! May the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be on our leaders and all the citizens! May the love that has waxed cold in us be rekindled so that we may co-exist in love. If we love only those who love us, of what profit is that?
SOONER THAN LATER SOMEONE HAS TO PUT HH UNDER CONTEXT
========================================
I have repeatedly warned y’all that HH is lawless. It’s only less than 9 Months when Chagwa gave this guy another political whip at the ballots and he is still acting bonkers! Jail this little piece of trash so we can achieve a little calmer of ice cold chilling shwa shwa shwa. I miss KK and FTJ. The duo would have already put this coward into context.
The government sent 600 police officers and fighter gets to protect the head of state and they failed to clear the way for the presidential motorcade. Where does HH come?
when lungu dies no one will lose jobs apart from his greedy minions in government. Howevever, if HH dies countless people would be left unemployed if his achievements went with his death. do the maths and tell me who is more important kikikiki mukose
Please let’s not be emotional.
We have people in the government whom don’t know how the government supposed to function.
So you believe HH is the one who knows how to govern?
You are impressed with HH’s leadership over UPND?
And you think that he can carry the same to state house?
He may be a businessman but as for political leadership, may be at patty level, and that party can only be UPND.
And that is where it ends, no more than that.
HH did nothing wrong.. Blame the police for allowing him to drive on BESIDES he is not the one driving…The Issue here is Edgar is unpopular in that area and he should have been advised at least. HH is the only hope for this country.
This Plan was hatched the Night b4 and ZPS, KZ,Lungu etc were part and Parcel of the Scheme of Arrangement to assassinate HH hoping to solve Lungu’s illegitimacy Problem. Lungu and KZ’s warped thinking is that having stolen the August 2016 Election they can solve Lungu’s illegitmacy problem by wooing foreign Heads of State to visit Zambia and Lungu visiting them. Lungu also thinks that Petitioners can be forced to recognize him and withdraw their Petition in Court. There is a definite thinking in the Lungu’s Camp that the Petition can be resolved by intimidating the Petitioners and in need eleminate them altogether. Lungu is risking plunging Zambia into a Civil War which will consume him, his Criminals and Election Riggers. Lungu is playing with fire and fire will burn him soon.ICJ…
@ Senior Citizen,
Any one who thinks Lungu is “a vital State asset” needs to take their head to Chainama to have masalamusi syphoned out! As for Mumbi Phiri, I can understand, it’s a diet of oral cum from Lungu she is swallowing that is dementing the wh.ore, she is sick!
What can I say! Blowing non-issues out of proportion. I guess we have so much time to waste around an issue which Lungu himself didnt see it to be one. Why do i say so? Lungu was able to open the window and enjoy the so called “blocking, over-speeding debacle” coupled with the excitement accompanying the Kuomboka without any fuss. Who are we to waste time on such? I guess, i forgot that we waste time on trivialities. What can mediocres spend their time on anyway! Zambia the mediocre country!
You do make sense. Thank you. I dont see any sanger tgere apart from that 2nd Police vehicle which I think was the one meant to clear HH but decided not to because no one deserves to die. Government vehicles driving on a very bad road and blame the rough ride on the Opposition?
The day you assassinate HH is the day North Western, Central, Western and Southern are secceding from Zambia, you will remain alone!
Hebrews12:14 – Pursue peace with all men, and the sanctification without which no one will see the Lord.
This is what corruption does. In the first place you have corruptly recruited children of cadres who do not qualify for the task.
Trivial indeed. No me I was blocked in Mongu. No I had to overtake to survive. Maiwe…
All what PF cadres are saying is nonsense. Which national security when you are dealing with a dictator? This motorcade issue was planned by the dictator of Zambia out of jelousy when he saw that HH had stolen the show from him in Barotseland. Just wait PF because the worst is yet to come for your chakolwa. The whole Zambia will hate him to the extent chasing him like a dog.
Arresting HH and GBM over the Motorcade issue will further complicate matters for Lungu. This is another demonstration that there is no longer respect for Rule of Law, Human Rights, Good Governance and Constitutionalism in Zambia. If Lungu thinks that arresting the Petitioners will kill the Petition and give him the Legitimacy he is looking for he will not get it. He will find out that this will quicken his departure from State House. That will help the Petition Hearing Process in that International and Regional Bodies will see the urgency of hearing the Presidential Petition at the ICJ. Lungu should know that those who live by the Sword will die by the Sword.
HH’s bad behaviour after 11/08/2016 if not caged would soon set Zambia on fire.its very clear that HH is doing “UKUFILILA MUNSENGA”,meaning “if not me(hh) in state house,then nobody else should”.i just wonder why Kakoma Kanganja has been retained as IG when a man has clearly failed.CHARITY KATANGA CAN DO FAR MUCH BETTER JOB THAN KANGANJA!!HH needs real men in uniform like ZAF Commander Eric Chimese to put him where he belongs(jail).HOW I WISH I WAS IG OR ECL,BY NOW ALL THOSE WHO DID THE NONSENSE IN MONGU WOULD BE HISTORY-MARK MY WORDS!!!ZAMBIA IS BIGGER THAN HH AND GBM.SO WE SHOULDNT RISK OUR PEACE IN ORDER TO PLEASE HH AND GBM-NEVER!!!
You sound like a broken record and are not even able to convince yourself with this meaningless post.
where are all the so called NGOs and the likes of VJ as well as LAZ to condemn this idiooot called hh or do they agree with what he did on this issue
This was classic Police Failure (PF)! Clueless cadres in uniform. Lungu and team have been warned on several occasions by many well-meaning Zambians against their crusade of replacing professional security officers with untrained cadres on ethnic and partisan lines! The clueless and unprofessional chaps he has for security should have known how you move a head of state! Don’t you sweep the road the way you do in Lusaka? How do you allow two motorcades to move at the same time? Is this how you move heads of state when they come for some meetings? To make matters worse, you leave the window open. Anything could have been thrown in there! Whoever was in charge of the president’s movement was too reckless and Lungu should get concerned with such security lapses in his security team and act…
Its time Charity Katanga took over. Remember how she sorted out UPND cadres in Lusaka
It should be clear to all that the PF govt is exceedingly childish and incredibly clueless how to govern.
Mumbi trying to be relevant once again.Zambia is slowly turning into a police state
WHAT ARE THOSE POLICE PF DOGS DOING AT HH’S HOUSE AT NIGHT? TELL THEM TO GET OUT. THERE WILL BE TOTAL MASSACRES IN OTHER AREAS OF THE COUNTRY IF YOU TRY DICTATORSHIP TRICKS OF ARRESTING HH. THERE WILL BE NO MEAT FROM SOUTHERN PROVINCE AND YOU WILL CRY FOUL.
I think they have gone to beg for beef. I hope they see that they are just being used when them they live in the worst ram-shackles in their camps.
Lungu imbwa
Is it true that he is “A Three Mansion?” He has one Mason in New Kasama, One Mason in Namwala, and One Mason in …..! Under 5 Clinic! Hazaluza Hagain!
Get a life!
Fake human beings. Right now you want to arrest HH you are tear gassing his house for what? You will never be in power for ever. Let the petition be heard what are afraid of? Everyone can see you through now. Your kind of politics are very backward what kind of embeciles are you? Cheap human beings who lack morals. You fear the UPND leaders. You are not even respected around the world. You have destroyed this country. Bakabwalala.
My question is , was there any police officers along the road to control or clear the road for president s motorcade? The problem with our Zambian police officers, is that they are only good at posing with UNIFORMS on social media, which is a very big risk for defense/security personals.
ZAMBIANS, READ ZAMBIAN WATCHDOG THAT HH AND FAMILY HAVE BEEN BESIEGED AT HIS HOUSE BY PF CADRE POLICE, WITH AN INTENTION TO ASSASSINATE HH AND THE ENTIRE FAMILY. THIS IS AN INSTRUCTION FROM PRESIDENT LUNGU. HOW CAN WE BE SO DOCILE TO ALLOW ASSASSINATION OF FELLOW ZAMBIANS WHILE WE SEE AND FEEL THIS BARBARIC ACTION FROM PF GOVERNMENT. WE HAVE TO DEFEND OURSELVES AND THE DEMOCRACY IN OUR NATION. LET US RISE UP TO DEFEND OURSELVES, OUR FAMILIES, OUR DIGNITY AND OUR WAY OF LIFE RESPECT OF EACH OTHER IN OUR DIVERSE OPINION. KILLING ONE ANOTHER IS NOT A SOLUTION. TAKE IT SERIOUS LUNGU WANTS TO KILL HH, GBM, SAVIOUR CHISHIMBA AND ALL WHO EXPRESS DIVERSE VIEWS TO HIS GOVERNMENT. LET US MOVE IN MASS TO DEFEND OUR FREEDOM.
HH is luck, had the police reacted he would have been reporting to his master in hell by now. Be careful hh don’t think drunk cadres can hold fire. It was going to be a mixture of blood and nshima with ngombe from kuomboka. Next time choka munjila kaboke.
Mumbi Phiri is a man not a woman. What kind of woman encites volience like this. Mumbi madam keep your self well because jail is coming for you. HH has more than 50% support in the country. You think harming him will make matter better. You want to plunge the country into war. Lungu is the one that caught up to HH. HH wss moving slow because of the number of people escorting him
That bitch on the left is that Tasila ? She’s beautiful and very alluring.
Useless Mumbi.One day your Lungu shall not be there and you shall dance to your own music. Do harm to HH and you will see Zambia burn.You PF cadres and your Lungu wont travel freely in SP, Barotseland and NWP etc.And the tear teargasing of HH’s house is uncalled for and Lungu seems to be drunk with power and has forgotten that dictators do end badly.If Lungu has sanctioned the teargassing of HH’s house, then I will remind him to remember Mobuto, indi Amini and others.I pity the PF cadre Kanganja because Lungu will always not be there to defend him
Mumbi Phiri’s utterance is rubbish.The police had their short comings but that does not mean “Pf security” are better than them.One day she will be on the other-side of the coin then she will evaluate the police service with a clear mind,i bet she’s drunk with power for now.Time is the best teacher to every person.
UPND are thugs and this is time to cage them !
Where are the Christians for Lungu?Please come out and say something! On behalf of easterners, 50% of my tribes mate do not agree with this governance in our nation,particulary the caderism and Police activities. Not Bazi munamani maboza, most of us easterners are wise and do not align ourselves with PF’s way of governance. We are civilised people except a few isolated hard cores. Bushe tikudya nawo. Tikulya lini nabeve!
