United Party for National Development (UPND) leader Hakainde Hichilema says the Patriotic Front Government should take responsibility of the turn of events in Western Province were seven districts have resolved to breakaway from the rest of Zambia.
Mr. Hichilema says there is clearly no doubt that there is a problem in the province which he says was allowed to degenerate by the PF’s perceived poor leadership.
In an exclusive telephone interview with QFM, Mr. Hakainde says President Michael Sata and his government should learn a lesson that deception does solve problems but only worsens the situation.
He however states that it is not too late for the PF Government to find an amicable solution to the problem.
The UPND leader has advised President Sata to come out in the open and apologize to the people of western province for betraying them over the Barotseland Agreement.
Mr. Hichilema says what the government needs to do after apologizing, is to engage in dialogue with leaders of the Barotseland and all well meaning political leaders in seeking a resolution on the matter.
He has however stated that Zambia should continue to be a unitary state while leaders in government should also ensure that development is spread to all parts of the country to avoid divisions.

this guy has brain cell of an ameoba

Just like u.
HH…Under 5 reasoning.
brother HH. As a leader of Zambia or aspiring leader, you should be seen playing a solution role rather than a mocking role. This is not a good example. Look at your friend Mutesa: really bwana you are under 5. You are misrepresenting other people that go by your tribe or association.Â
I wonder if you even go to church: what do you lean at church, HH?Â
@ 4 your eyes only ulichupumbu. Umuntu alanda ifya mano, all you can do is just critisize. Pipo like you will always b inferior becoz of your negativity.. Uli chipuba sana
you are a foolish man, HH is a better leader than your SATANIST president. You are just a hater!
Education makes a difference
Walitumpafye HH Chikala. Speak like MUTESA. Don’t condemn PF. Even yourself if u were president, GOD FORBID, you wud av found yourself in the same situation.
HH is a mere opportunist who sees political mileage in everything, deaths, illnesses, impasse like the one in Barotse, to name just a few. We are told a substantial amount money was donated from Southern province including cows and the same chiefs he has been using in Southern province attended the BNC, has he got a hand in it??
As a politician, HH needs to know tha he stands no chance to be a President in Zambia because he simply lacks leadership. Government should just be level headed and deal with this situation. My advice is that the President appoints a task force of relevant Cabinet Ministers such as Defence, Home Affairs, Chiefs, Local Government and may be Finance to deal with the issue and report to him fortnightly. There should be no high handed use of force and the BRE should u
No No No No Mr.HH.They say a Bantustan will NEVER be president of Zambia.Why should we continue being part of Zambia then?Zambia should NOT continue being unitary state.Dont give GRZ another chance.Its 47 years of the so called independence but there is still nothing special about being Zambian.The BNC has made the right and best decision.The fight MUST continue
you are a fool. how do you expect to win election when you are not campaigning? you are busy trying to divide what GOD gave us together. tribalism…in fact you are evil
Excitement indeed. Apologise for allowing people to speak their mind? For not sweeping (keeping) the BL issue nicely suppressed under the carpet like all formers have done? This is bigger and older than PF, who is only six months old. This has nothing to do with HE MCS, ask the Lozis.
HH is a shame to Zambian People.He is the one who even wrote on Watchdog that Tongas are going with Barotse people.What a desparete leader!!!! He can bring tribe cleansing in Zambia just coz he wants to rule.He is busy playing tribe tactics in Zambia.A president who hates other tribes openly.Really is a presdent of Bantustan.
all PF cadres what they see even if it makes sense is tribalism.
And just how does all this make sense to you
Steve Biko once said “but you the black child, smart or dumb, you are born into this, and smart or dumb, you will die in it”. After you chase the whites hoping for the best, you again turn against yourselves. Selfish animals worse than the pigs in animal farm.
Same as other item!
THE DISTRIBUTING OF RESOURCES IS NOT EVENLY DONE ,THEY ARE BUSY DEVELOPING LUSAKA AT THE EX PENCE S OF SAY TOWNS LIKE SOLWEZI, CHINGOLA , CHILILABOMBWE, KITWE, KALULUSHI AND MUF WHICH ARE CONTRIBUTING 80% OF THE RESOUCES.
This guy is such a joke. Can you seriously be partisan on such an issue? Who does that? He hasn’t even read the BNC resolution it clearly states that this problem has been going on since independence PF is not the problem. HH you have stooped to your lowest ever and the little respect I had for you is gone!
WHY IS THAT EVERY TIME HH OPENS HIS MOUTH ONLY RUBBISH COMES OUT?
THE FACT IS THAT PF IS IN POWER AND WHATEVER HAPPENS IN THE COUNTRY, THE GOVERNMENT HAS TO PLAY A PART.
WHAT THE HELL IS IN YOUR HEAD HH?

You brianless petty people enslaved into tribalism. HH although not my favourite people is right on this one. Why cant you see reason where it lies? Most of you posting these trivial comments are probably young college and university graduates and I shudder to think that this is the caliber of our potential future leaders. Wake up and shake off your tribal shackles to see where your country is headed for under PF. You are such a disgusting bunch of brainless followers of a government that is leading you to no where. Why is the Barotseland problem surfacing so strongly now? Ofcourse this is too much to ask from you simple Kaponyas.
If Zambians cannot see sense but only tribalism in what HH is saying, then we are not going anywhere as a country. young people in Zambia have become more tribal than there parents that it now blurs their senses of judgement and reasoning. Tribalism, from which ever side its coming from, either Tonga side or Bemba side, (coz I believe y’all are tribal) will never take you anywhere. And political leaders will always be taking advantage of you
Its like PF chaps feel un confortable each time HH critisice Sata. FIRE MOTO. HH keep talking and advise. honestly you sound more presidential materila than the sick old fool.
“In an exclusive telephone interview with QFM, Mr. Hakainde says President Michael Sata and his government should learn a lesson that deception doesnt solve problems but only worsens the situation” viva HH. meanwhile viva barotse for exposing lairs.
after all you will never find a LOZI holding a highest position in gorvernment may be in a private sector or in church, LOZI’s are very inteligent in school but they lack wisdom,unlike the tongas may be god made them the way they are because of there sturboness
“The UPND leader has advised President Sata to come out in the open and apologize to the people of western province for betraying them over the Barotseland Agreement.”…FOR WHAT?
ONE THING ZAMBIAN PEOPLE SHOULD REALISE IS THAT WE DONT SIGN ANY CONTRACT WITH POLITICIANS FOR US TO REFER TO WHEN THEY DONT DELIVER.
WHY HAVEN’T WE ALL GONE TO ROB BANKS SINCE THE “MORE MANY IN OUR POCKETS” HAS NOT BEEN FULFILLED….JUST BECAUSE SATA HAS NOT DELIVERED ON THE BNC ISSUES DOES NOT MEAN THEY SHOULD SPLIT THE COUNTRY….WHY SHOULD SELFISH PEOPLE BRING CHAOS…..
Anyone who doesn’t see any sense in what HH is saying is a complete *****. This is exactly why some tribes want to break up from people like bloggers above. This is time for revolution against uselessness in governance. Twanaka naba kelenka fisushi fyabo. Ati 90 days? Atase!
iS THIS GUY INTERESTED IN SOLVING PROBLEMS OR HE WANTS TO REJOICE BECAUSE THERE ARE PROBLEMS? HE IS SO SHALLOW MINDED THAT HE THINKS WESTERN PROVINCE IS WHAT MADE PF WIN!!! HIS SHALLOW MINDEDNESS IS IRRITATING! HE SHOULD BE ARRESTED BECAUSE HE IS INCITING REVOLTS!
What apology should Sata make? Sata was cristal clear when he said the issue of Barotse Agreement is not Cesession but about handing power to the Litunga. This power is the customery power as enshrined in the resently pubshed agreement in the media. So for what is Sata going to apologise? HH grow up please.
Comments submited by bloggers are retrogressive. It is very clear that they are submitted by young people who luck wisdom and knowledge: College and University students or rather the youth who voted for the PF government. They have continued their blind royalty even where the PF governement did not deliver on campaign promises, except a song “don’t kubeeba” meaning “don’t tell them”. Is this a problem of our university training lacking training in critical thinking and analysis? This a dangerous path Zambia is heading to. Meaningless, tribal, insults retrogressive submissions should be not be published. under 21s and busive articles sho on our leaders should be banned.
This is not a time for partisan politics… its time to come up with solutions not apologies..
but some egoistic leaders don`t realise that our great nation is at stake and all they come up with is the Blame game.. Grow up and realise this is beyond you and your pocket !!! Find a solution or you`ll end up Ruling half of Zambia..
This is manual
OH HH ! WHEN ARE YOU GOING TO GROW?ANYWAY THANX THAT YOU DONT REPRESENT ZAMBIAN PIPO BUT ONLY YOUR GREED TRIBE.THAT IS WHY PIPO OF THIS GREAT NATION CANT INTRUST LEADERSHIP WITH YOU . YOU CAN DIVIDE US INDEED !
Why waste time commenting in this Bantu-stan Nyandule called HH
Inconsiquential chap. HH is the dullest politician in the world. This is not a political mileage issue bwana. I wonder what type of people could have voted for this dull chap. I am disappointed. I end here!
This issue has nothing to do with the present goverment or the BEMBA’S. Pliz guys grow up some of you tribal bloggers. HH you are still very young. I respect people like Chipimo, his sentiment this morning on Muvi TV over the Barotse where very mature and he aticulated them inteligently than the way HH has busted out. Please think and study over the matter deeply before you make any public statement. I see you not ruling our great nation. Please!, go back to looking after your cattle, it suites you best.
The newest state in the UN system, the Kingdom of Barotseland kekekekeke.
IT IS GOOD HH IS NOT A FOODSTUFF,NOBODY WAS GOING TO BE EATING IT.
VIVA HH… WHEN YOU SPEAK THE SATANIST TREBLESS! MY PRESIDENT YOU SPEAK THE TRUTH.. LET SATA OPOLOGIZE FOR HIS LIES.. HE DECIEVED PEOPLE LIKE HE DID IN THE GARDEN OF EDEN. SINCE 2001 I HAVE BEEN VOTING UPND AND 2016 AM VOTING UPND.. VIVA HH AND VIVA UPND!
