Nawakwi is a let down-Kafue FDD District Secretary

Share

FDD President Edith Nawakwi campaigning for RB in 2008 elections

The opposition FDD in Kafue has advised its party president Edith Nawakwi to stop complaining that she was being sidelined by President Rupiah Banda despite backing him in the last presidential by-election.

Speaking in an interview in Kafue yesterday, Kafue FDD District Secretary Maxwell Ngoma flanked by his Constituency Chairman Kasumba Ngulube said Ms. Nawakwi’s decision to back President Banda in the 2008 Presidential Election did not have any blessing from the party.

The duo have accused the opposition leader of being a sell out who does not deserve sympathy from party members.[quote]

Mr. Ngoma stated that Ms Nawakwi should blame herself for what she is going through because she decided to back the ruling party instead of the opposition.

He added that it is wrong for Nawakwi to claim that she made President Banda to go to State House when she was not the only one supporting President Banda.

Mr. Ngoma explained the stance being taken by Nawakwi clearly demonstrates that she wanted to sell FDD to the ruling party so that she can be given a higher job in the ruling party.

He said that the FDD are not surprised to see that its president has continued attacking President Rupiah Banda in the press for failure for the two leaders to honor their agreement.

He however, stated that although the party does not agree with the statement which was coming from the MMD youths to gang rape the FDD leader there was need for the two parties to settle their agreement amicably.

He noted that it is sad that Ms Nawakwi has even failed to reorganize the FDD at the expense of her own personal interest.

He called on President Nawakwi to quickly call for a national convention in order to elect new leaders if the party is to win 2011 General Elections. He said the party is currently dormant because Nawakwi has failed to reorganize it.

  1. What Namakwenkwe with 5 kids from 5 different father figures need to concentrate on is sanitize her life first instead of soliciting for a public office appointment.Address the US $ 20 million Carlington Maize scam, repent for the raping the Mwanakatwe constitution with Sata targeting KK in 1995 and making it write with Mrs Hantembo and her children a husband of 25 years was told to desert them for her.

  2. MS. NAWAKWI SHOULD NOT SAY ONE SINGLE WORD AGAINST THE PRESIDENT. WHT SHE DD DURING THE ELECTION OF RB IS TERMED AS POLITICAL PROSTITUTION. AND DECEIT NEVER GOES UNPUNISHED! SHE SOLD HERSELF TO BE BED FELLOWS WITH RB. AFTER THAT POLITICAL INTERCOURSE SHE EXPECTED TO BE PAID, MAYBE IN KIND! MU NGONI NAE ATI TACHITA KUDALA , MAWINA KALE MA ELECTION. SO THE KAFUE BOYS ARE RIGHT; WEEP NOT NAWAKWI, YOU WERE PIMPED TO THE ELECTORATES!!

  3. This husband snatcher should keep her foul mouth shut before we disclose more about her. She campainged for MMD and in turn expected favours from RB and now she wants to come out like a champion of the people through the beleagured Post newspaper.Edited

  4. Calling on Zambians aged 35 – 45yrs to organise themselves and take over the reigns of Zambian leadership. Our elders seem to have lost the plot.Whenever they open their mouths they are either insulting or being insulted. We don’t need this crap.We need a new generation of leaders.

  5. Iet those who have never made a poor judgement in their lives cast the first stone at Nawakwi.So she supported RB during elections, so what? At the time it seemed like a good idea.All your relatives in the villages voted RB(and will probably vote him again) why haven’t you crucified them.

  6. Why is she playing double standards. Is she MMD or FDD? Leave MMD alone and concentrate on your party. MMD is an organized party and it does not like intruders!

  7. Nawakwi uses the (her) FDD for monetary gain. Those FDD followers are wasting their own time.
    Let them go and join other parties, unless they are also especting jobs from her.

  8. Nawakwi during her reign as minister of agriculture, the sector failed lamentably. She described the agri sector as a bottomless pit as govt spent over $75million but no returns. Remember the days of SGS.
    As if its not Nawakwi was moved to energy as minister, loads of trucks carrying fuel disappeared btn livingstone and lusaka. If you got a van take it to board and timber (lumumba), and let her hire your van to ferry stuff to her farm. Uncle Scruggy is more generous. Nawakwi we know u. Says History

  9. You see what, there is a clear crisis in our affairs as a nation.
    People serve personal interests than that of the nation.
    If Nawakwi was serving national interest she would not cry faul on the basis of being sidelined but on the basis of failure in governance; those are the issues.

    Now, for example Zesco Acting MD, Mr Cyprian Chitundu has just resigned. Six months ago we had Dr Nyirenda who resigned barely 1 month in Office and nobody is bothered. All they talk about is how they disadvantage one another in politics.
    They simply talk about how they supported each other and were not rewarded.
    We must leave that type of leadership and govbernance.

  10. Imwe bantu, don’t pretend. How many of you wouldn’t want ku kwelako Presidential helicopter?:-w Her dreams came true. kukonda manone. waposa na party panse. Yangu!

  11. Ba Moze Mulishani, U have made me laugh my lungs out in No. #11 comment.

    Yaba. Anyway Im still bitter, Nawakwi decampaigned Mr Sata and HH during the last rally they had in Mandevu before the crooked by-election that “ushered” in the crooked RB into “Power” . hese foreigners are busy handing over Power to themselves whilst we the natives watch. KK from Malawi, FTJ from DRC, NyamaSoya from Gwada Zimbabwe and he is very proud of it. Ha talema nayo nkani ya pa zed. This country sucks.

  12. #12 Mpangula Mputyu, bwino mani. Shani? You know what is really upsetting, just when you start to believe in one politician, then they do something silly. You really wonder if Edith’s support for RB was genuine or it was for her own personal interest. Perhaps she was hoping she would be Minister of Finance nangu ka Veep!:-?

  13. Patriot please can you tell us how many children Rupiah , Sata and Mwaanga each have? Were they born from the same woman? Or are you just a s…ex..ist male chauvinist who judges women by different standards? This goes for all the s.e.x.i.st commenators on this thread. Backward Zambian men!

  14. Ba Moze mu #13 Bwino. I think Edith was thinking ukuba ka gelo ka ba RB. ha ha ha nkani yalula so nikukalipa. Ma temper yama bwela kuli ma Ladies. Enzo funa kumu sova kuli ba RB. Edith is a disgrace together with Nevers Mumba they were busy de campaigning Sata & HH. Ka Nevers kali quite as ambassador in Canada. We shall flush them out wait for 2011.

  15. ZAMBIA IS FINISHED. BRING BACK COLONIALISM…WELL THE CHINESE ARE COMING…THAT IS COLONIALISM WITH A VENGEANCE. AT LEAST YOUR WOMEN WILL BE SAFE!!!!:)>-

  16. #15 Mpangula, ka Nevers kalelya bwino ka mambala. He knows that if he utters one word, kuti alufyanya and a repeat of the Levy saga can occur. Edith ma sour grapes. Ichashala nomba kulaya fye kuma police ati, ” they want to gang rape me”. This politics of poverty, te sana bane.

  17. Edith, what a sellout. She even says such things without shame. gang rape? he he he i have always said it, pa zed pali nyeli…….he he.

  18. Ba moze muliche? Some time late last year you had gone zee for quite a while, had LT blogging become so much of a bore because for me some time last year it did become boring. Anyways hope you good.

  19. Seriously bloggers, the topic is on Nawakwi being a let down politically. We dont need comments on her private life. How does her having kids[a blessing from God] translet into being a sell-out to the FDD party?

  20. Sad that your friends in MMD want to gang rape you this is all your own making you supported RB when most us said no, you thought he was going to appoint you as vice President stop insulting him now or ever sort yourself out.

  21. FDD is worse than a dwindling Boys Scout Club without a master. Disband the party and let the people join their parties of interest. It’s done deal, CHIMBWI NO PLAN.

  22. Edith Nawakwi has got a farm outskirts of Matero, the road she passes through everyday, you cannot describe whether its a road or a ditch, what has she done for the people in that area, she must be ashamed of herself, or what do the MPS do in Zambia for five years they are in parliament?
