  1. well, another bye-election in chisamba. yayaayaaya…muteteka had his ego over rated during the MMD reign he deserves it. just like winter kabimba is behaving. what is wrong with these 1diots from central zambia.

    • @matipa,
      Talking of ‘1diots from central Zambia who have their ego overrated’ , don’t you think Kambwili, GBM, Sampa, George Chela and Nsanda are worse at self-overrating and pomposity and what region of Zambia are they from?

  2. Too bad for Mteteka! This should serve as a lesson to a lot of selfish polititians who wants to reap where they didn’t sow. Selfishess! Cage them! Now I know that only the poor serve the sentence while the rich like him will appeal until the term will finsh and later on aquitted!

    • @Them
      This Politician will serve time simply because he his MMD. It’s only PF MP’s that are protected against the Police Force (PF) activity…just look at George Mpombo. Protected while serving under PF and affording the luxury of missing court dates without informing court authorities. No sooner does he fall out with the PF does he find himself locked up behind bars.

    • I totally agree, its only the ordinary poor who go to jail for stealing a chicken. For the rich, the whole trial is just an academic exercise. Look at George Mpombo, Katele Kalumba, you know them.

  3. unfortunately he will be walking the streets like masumba, jail is for poor people
    politicians know how to stay out of jail appeals after appeal till the case is thrown
    out the second time or found not quity like liato, keep dreaming about caging a
    politician.

  4. How many politicians have been convicted and yet are serving their term out of prison? The same with Muteteka, tomorrow he will be at Manda hill eating and drinking with us while serving his term out side prison. This is the justice found in Zambia. Only the poor who have no money to appeal rot in prisons. They are prisons for poor people. Who shall save the poor from this injustice?

    Peace and Prosperity to Mother Zambia.

  5. Breaking news Upnd & HH have received over 100 defectors from Pf party in Matero Constituency. Go HH go, go Dr Banda go, go Mr Kapita go, go Mrs Nalumango Mutale go, go the Upnd team go! Go Zambia go for better Zambia for all Zambians.

    • That is encouraging news indeed. If it was’nt for police brutality and PF intimidation a lot PF mps would have defected to UPND.

      Come 2015 -16 a lot PF prominent people in major cities will defect en mass to UPND.

      I will not be shocked to hear that Sata has defected to UPND in 2016.

    • Thats what every year you say and we dont see any improvement but what we see is a downward trend for UPND in every election. Good luck for you guys.

    • How do you know if those so called defectors came from Pa Fyabufi (PF)? .Politics in Zambia is all about playing aka red naka black. Even those who do not belong to any political party can be paraded at political rallies as defectors.

  6. Looking forward to the time when Laws that punish these leaders will be strenthened.lt is the same as aphathaid of South Africa.let the rich go to jail too.Justice must reign in all places.

  7. cant you see people he is even smiling…knowing very well he will
    be out from prison soonest….
    there are no jails in zambia…..lets all steal and have more money in our pockets!!
