Former Justice Minister Sebastian Zulu has advised the ruling PF to adopt late President Michael Sata’s widow, Christine as the party’s presidential candidate in the upcoming presidential by election.

Mr Zulu who served as the first Justice Minister in the PF administration observed that Dr Kaseba would make a good republican President.He said the PF leadership should view Dr Kaseba as a comprise candidate who will help unite the party.

In an interview in Lusaka, Mr Zulu said Dr Kaseba understands fully the vision of her late husband for Zambia and can help execute it.He noted that the divisions in the PF are too deep and only Dr Kaseba can help bridge the differences.

“There is a big problem in the PF. Everybody wants to succeed, I have my own views on who should succeed because they can’t agree on one candidate,” Mr Zulu said.
He added, “I don’t see the PF leaders agreeing. So why not settle on the First Lady, let her finish the two years. I would rather her. Let’s have a lady President, a woman President, Dr Kaseba is internationally known, she is a medical doctor and she was actually working before going to State House.”

    • Ubuwele wele bweka bweka mu Zambia. Ba Zulu no wonder your late mbuya fired you. You are one of “ifipuba”. Zambia is not a monarch and is not short of leaders. We have HH waiting on to take over plot 1.
      Let Kaseba mourn her late husband, and please stop ukusabaila.

    • I have respect for Mama Kasebe, But sorry this is a Stupi,d suggestion. Being a wife to a President does not make her the best candidate. Nonsense. What we need is a Young Zambian who can move this country forward. Zambia is a democratic country not a monarchy so, she has done her part and let her mourn the husband.

      Mr. Zulu, you are trying to kill our country just because you will not live that long?? We want to correct the mistakes you the old papas made in moving our country forward. Therefore stay away from suggesting such rubbish to us the young Zambians. We will make our own Decision. Young Leader no more these old people born before 1964?? Enough with corruption and stagnation..

    • I am here to confess and propose a name we have been ignoring and should rightfully be supported.
      A name that does not engage in any corrupt services and has served their constituency admirable,

      I give to you that person

      A man like you i doubted but I have relented slowly

      That I man give to you now, to succeed and bring pride to the presidency is

      Miles Sampa

      Thanks

    • You want us to vote for the woman who told Zambia her husband is well and working? She was more interested in going to receive certificates abroad than the ewll being of Zambians.When Zambians were being subjected to PF violence she never spoke out for the vulnerable woman and children caught in the cross fire.NO NO keep her away from the reigns of power.

    • yep ba PF mulibe quality FOOL STOP. kapena mu woman. surely how can PF vote for a drunkard. after the mad man died you want a drunkard. what kind of foolishness is that.

      go to the conference and fool yourselves.

    • I have some reservations over Madam Kaseba sata, leave her alone to mourn the late husband. I also have doubts about HH becoming president coz he is inexperienced and childish in dealing with national issues. HH will lose for the fourth time. It pains but that’s the truth baba.

    • A-zulu begging for a job in disguise. Dr Kaseba was the architect of the rampant lies surrounding Sata ‘s long illness and his subsequent death.

      It would be utter stupidity to even contemplate that Dr Kaseba can stop PF’s failed project of lies with impunity, fake promises and total disregard of the law. She demanded her fake unconstitutional office be given K1.5 billion kwacha, the money which could have been used to improve conditions in our hospitals.

      Any one or anything PF stinks of massive corruption and tribalism.

      If you want all Dr Kaseba’s relatives to be given top jobs in Zambian government then Dr Kaseba is your choice.

      PF is a failed project. All it knew was construction of unfinished poorly funded projects because it benefited from kick backs.

      UPND and HH…

    • Dr Kaseba is being influenced by Grace Mugabe, who is also positioning her self to succeed her husband in Zimbabwe.

      What a joke!

    • So should we expect a fight like cats and dogs between the mama and her son mulenga, with the rest of the sata brood taking sides? Or is it the step son? I’ve heard many whispers about our departed dictator fathering a slew of illegitimate kids outside wedlock

  1. Zambians, so this means we have no UNDER-5 Politicians. I’m glad not to be home paying TAXES for very old elected officials, it’s time for Zed to have a young President with a well understanding of the new world. This must be Politics of Poverty, wake-up humans.

    • This website is getting so streetish. You “young” people should go to Kitwetimes, Tumfweko, Mwebantu or ZWD. We don’t call Zambia as Zed.
      If you youths want a childish president, then take your Miles Sampa with you to those websites.
      We have mature issues to deal with this month, that is to find a President to lead your fathers.

    • @Dudelove

      I feel your anger and disgust my bro. PF is a huge joke.

      Dr Kaseba ‘s constitutional office gobbled over K1.5 billion each of the three years. How did she spend that money? For what and on what? Seriously heads should roll in the next government for RDA and Kaseba’s office to account for huge billions stolen and misused from the tax payer.

    • Hand around us and you’ll get the hang of it. It’s deliciously liberating. Dudelove and I can school you on how to throw shade, subtly and sometimes not.

  2. What a cruel joke to the people of Zambia. I can see that Mr Zulu is also a paid, useful id!ot. The man has only been 6 ft under for 2 days and you are already submitting your C.V to his wife. You were disgraced once, you will surely be disgraced again. Just keep quiet and use whatever you stole, pardon me EARNED to settle on a farm and start keeping chickens, maybe organic farming on the side. Trust me, its much more respectful than yapping like that.

  3. Ba Sebastian Zulu! Please stop bringing up further confusion. We appreciate what the late president did. However, he was not the only the only one with the vision for Zambia. His did his part, let another one also rule. Zambia is not a kingdom, people are free to vote who they want, even in PF. MAYBE IT TIME TO GET RID OF YOU OLD FOLKS IN THE GOVERNING OF OUR GOVERNMENT, YOU CAN NOT SEE FURTHER THAN 20 YEARS FROM NOW.

  4. Chief——– Chieftainess
    President———-Presidentness/less

    May all in electoral college sober up and come up with a compatible candidate

  5. I totally agree with Mr Zulu, Dr Kaseba is the only person you can unite the ruling party as she can command more respect than any of the other names we are hearing being proposed for presidency. I just do not know how well is can recover from the lose of her husband to start campaigning so soon.

    • Mr Zulu
      You seem to be suggesting that Doctor Kaseba would just have it plain sailing and become president. If I were her, I would simply reject your suggestion and move on with my life as a physician. It would save her from the brutal and expository campaign brewing in the horizons and the questions we Zambians would subject her to. Please spare Doctor Kaseba and let her just go back to the hospital where I hear she is good.
      This time remember, PF will not have the luxury of relying on that inanity of a slogan, “Donchi kubeba”!

  6. Ba Sebastian Zulu! Please stop bringing up further confusion. We appreciate what the late president did. However, he was not the one with the vision for Zambia. He did his part, let another one also take the button and complete the race. Zambia is not a monarch! People are free to vote whoever they want, even in PF. MAYBE IT IS TIME TO GET RID OF YOU OLD FOLKS IN THE GOVERNING OF OUR COUNTRY, SOME OF YOU OLD FOLKS CAN NOT SEE THAN 20 YEARS FROM NOW BECAUSE YOU ARE OLD.

  7. Is this what this Zulu crap can come up with?? no wonder people from the east litter indian shops in Kamwala. Chipuba ichi. Instead of nominating himself he starts shitting from the mouth . The prick!!

  8. What criteria did this muppet use to arrival at such a conclusion? I thought Sata’s vision was a collective vision of the PF as a party. Whose interest will Dr Kaseba be serving, Sata’s or PF as a party? The bootlickers of Sata, the late, have gone too far!!! Please remember that Zambia is a country and not Sata’s estate.

    • This is tribal PF believing they have the birth right to rule. What they don’t understad is that even though 60-70 percent of Zambians speak Bemba or Nyanja sometimes both, only 30-35 pct are actually Bemba or Luapula Bemba. And even in that 30-35 Bemba at least 10 pct are not tribal or are mixed. HH can win a free and fair election with 20 pct hard core Bemba. The rest of us are happy with him and don’t call me Tonga bcs I am not a Tonga. The only way PFcan win is by rigging .

  9. Guys! Let us use these blogs to campaign off the old folks. We need young leaders in government. How can some of our old leaders plan for the next 30 years when they only have maybe less than 5 or 10 years to live? Lets participate in the running of our country.

    I have worked with old folks in Zambia, they are more than 30 years backward in terms of technology. How can we trust such leaders to plan for our country for the next 30 years? We the youth need to participate in politics, Abash retrogressive thinking from Sebastian Zulu! What a joke!

  10. Alase imwe, why are you rubbishing Zulu’s opinion? She is my candidate too. She is a Zambian who can propel this country forward, not most of you men who are greedy and power hungry. Zulu is the man!!!

  11. Zambian women affiliated with PF have not shown convincing leadership skills -look at Justice Chibesakunda, IG Stella Libongani,ACC director Roswin Wandi all the tuma female police chiefs doted around the country. We don’t need such women in leadership ever again. Let Dr.Kaseba mourn her husband.No sympathy votes sorry!

  12. I can tell that most if not all of you people contributing are not even Zambian based. You are economic refugees. Ask me how I know, I will tell you.

    • We are economic refugees because of poor political leadership in our mother Zambia. That is why we are now advocating for real change that will provide equal opportunities to every Zambian, irrespective of tribe or province or district. We are coming back home to vote for this long awaited for change. Viva HH Viva! Viva UPND Viva! Zambian residents in Botswana are for a party which has intellectuals. UPND IS THE CHOICE PARTY FOR ZAMBIA.

    • Which HH are you talking about? The selfish HH of Zambia I know? The HH which swindled Zambians through privatization? The HH who is so childish over national issues. The HH who is so egocentric. Man, this HH will lose for the fourth time. It pains but that’s the truth.

    • Ask you how you know we are not Zambian based? Because we tell you things that we have seen and you can’t yet grasp. “umwana ashenda….” and all that.

  13. Poor advice. Zambia is not a monarch. You propose for another crook! If you really love Zambia, then help to stop these crooks from looting our resources by voting them out. Sata has died together with his PF Party. It’s a new dawn for Zambia. Let power circulate to all Zambians until it reaches you! We need a new crop of leaders that will bee accountable to the Zambian people, leaders who are not liars. IF IT COMES FROM PF, IT IS LIES!

  14. Ati she understands the late’s vision.Which vision?the vision of tribalism?can u imagine this country some lum
    Pen in western endorsing sampa for president.I feel sick.

  15. Too many empty tins and liars in Zambia. ..and you call yourselves a Christian nation whatever that means…really laughable! !

  16. Zambia is a finished country, a condemned nation full of thieves, crooks, liars, drunkards and prostitutes, regardless of age. This is your chance to think once more as a nation and as one people. The world waits to see if you will pass this test otherwise your future generations will dwell in perpetual poverty. Think like humans now and use your brains not your diseased bellies or tribal affiliation to bring back normality. Learn from your past. The ball is back in your court!

    • Why are you even wasting your breath you people. You are not on the ground here in Zambia to know who the voters are. You are not voters and therefore cannot dictate to us which party we should settle for. We know what is best for us and we will vote for the party of our choice. Stop the rot of telling us that mabisi is better.

  17. its not a question of weather she can rule or not…..
    rather how long has she been a politician????
    its due to such shallow thinking that has kept this country
    in its poor state 50 after independence….. we just dream of
    who should be a leader…. this MUST STOP!!!!

  18. The problem with Zambians is that when someone suggests something, they are subjected to insults instead of giving reasons as to why you reject such a person. Most negative comments against from morons from UPND or MMD knows only insults instead of putting IP their valid reasons as to why Dr Kaseba cannot be president. If you don’t know your grand parents in your villages can stand as presidents if they so wish. Most these bloggers are economic refugees who have lost touch of what is going on in Zambia. They don’t know what Sata has achieved in three years. My friend from UK visited Zambia after 5 years and he couldn’t believe what Sata did. The only thing he did was to say sorry to Sata. You economic refugees come and see what Sata did you dull morons.

    • Man tell these refugees suffering cleaning old white people, cleaning the plates, distributing newspapers while sleeping in a one roomed house. They deceive themselves that they are in paradise and yet the are in hell . What a crop of failures they are. Let them come back and see what Sata has done in three years.

    • Well put, it is true that most of us bloggers have not seen what has been happening back home especially if we have not been there recently and hence the insults every now and then. It is due to frustration and nothing to contribute intellectually. It is a pity on these blogs we do not have many contributors residing in Zambia to shed more light on the happenings. We therefore, rely on the headlines posted here to argue without facts.

    • Dude, some things do not even deserve further discussion. It is ludicrous to have Kaseba as candidate, on what flippin’ basis???? That is why African countries will never develop when such thought processes are entertained. This stup!d idea should not have even left this dunderhead’s brain. Talk about Edgar Lungu then yes we will have the time to tear him up constructively, not this bullsh!t. PF just needs to go away now. They have done their tuma roads with borrowed money leaving us in crazy debt and without any income generating projects to mitigate these debts and they have increased the cots of living. It is now time for educated people like HH and his crew to come in and try and clean this fcuking mess. Go away PF. You have no lies to tell to the people anymore muma campaign…

    • Sometimes I think that people should pass an intellectual test before they are allowed to vote. The test could be translated to all vernacular languages to avoid any misunderstanding. Maybe even use parables involving kalulu and tortoise – with pictures.

  19. Plz plz plz, 4give bazulu nabanwa (drunk) nafwaka… & u kno its too, so a combination of both made him halucinate… Plz 4give him.

  20. …& wat hapens wen kaseba dies, the son or daughter & wen they died grandies etc since acordng 2 zulu de vision z n de family… I nw kno y S ata fired.

  21. SCOTT IS THE WAY FORWARD.
    We NEED CONTINUITY AND MASSIVE FOREIGN CAPITAL

    NO BROWN BOTTLES
    NO TWIN TRUSTS.
    NO FUNNY NGOS FOR FIRST LADIES..

  22. We all have preferred candidates,but one should not come from outside Pf. I stand to be corrected is Dr Kaseba a Member of patriotic front?

  23. Mr. Zulu power in a democracy does not transfer across the meal table.
    Power should not transfer to the leaders preferred candidate. power should always transit through a democratic means. So let ba kaseba, ba lungu, ba GBM, mulenga Sata etc be chosen by through established channels.

  24. Crikey what planet is Sebastian Zulu living on? Sata lied about a lot of things. Kaseba lied about his medical condition, she has learnt from the best. Now you want to put her in plot 1 to escalate with the lies we have been hearing since 2011? Then there is pompous step son also eyeing the position. Zambia is not a dynasty. Throw this suggestion as far away aspossible.

  25. For me GIVEN LUBINDA, should be the rightful heir to the P.F, Presidency.
    The fact he was a victim of EVIL Kabimba’s scheming’s, surely shows hes a proper leader with Good qualities, hence the Cartel chose to get him out of the way quickly.
    He was also reconciled with Sata & the Party, well before Sata departed.
    GIVEN LUBINDA FOR PRESIDENT!!!

  26. This is the caliber of people we are dealing with? All a bunch of panhanlers..let’s be very careful Zambians, who we chose to manage our country. Let us carefully vet each one of them.. Do not vote blindly just cause we wanted to get rid of the previous regime.. We made that mistake twice now.. No more please

  27. Zulu’s suggestion is sensible. All the UPND cadres posting negative remarks know deep down that HH would have a very steep mountain to climb if Kaseba was pitched against him.

    There are several examples in the world where this trick has worked. We’ll wait and see whether PF is smart enough to play their cards right.

  28. Dr kaseba would make a good president,many would easier accept her,and when voted in pliz first sort out local government service commission which has failed to bring reasonable solutions to council most of the council workers are frustrated hence affecting service delivery . The commission has failed to promote in accordance with what councils recommended but instead employed on the same positions people with the same qualifications or less and with no experience leaving qualified and experienced council employers who suffered with councils when council were not considered good working places .

  29. Pf was Sata, Sata was pf the ka bwatoo was buried with Sata finish! How can pf unite Zambia if they can’t be united. Let Pf go, peried! HH is the man visionary & hardworking. Very sober!

  30. This is a charming offence. Much needed to cheer Christine up, for that Zulu is commended for his gallant old world charm!

    However as a serious proposal it is a disaster. Christine has neither the acumen for a presidential role nor the emotional well being required in that role at this moment.

    If PF want to honour her, they can give her an honorary role in the Ministry of Health. A personal secretary role or such where her medical expertise can help shape our health policies.

    Much needed now is a Spa holiday in Italy or somewhere suitable so she can re-group. PF can you see to her mental health please and not engage her in mediocrity at this time. Can some sharp lawyer help her with the inheritance issues please? I trust Sata to have been dutiful to her by Will.

    • She could also renew and resume practice of the hippocratic oath she took as a doctor. It contains the line “I will keep them from harm and injustice “.

  31. Seriousness about putting the right person is now. Plz let’s not always putting Zambia on a trial then regret at the end. We have had enough from far back and now we don’t want to stand tomorrow and start to say I voted for so and so but now a regret that I did it. Gone are those experiments. We need to face it right. The right time is now and the right person is HH. period

  32. Brother wanzelu,I like yo posts.If all Zambians were reasoning like you this country would be a better place to live in.Unfortunately we have those of our compatriots who are so narrow minded they only think tribe. HH’s name has been on the ballot paper several times and its high time we gave him a shot to govern.Pf should be shelved for now to give them time to reorganise and lick their wounds.Their style of running state affairs has been pathetic in the last 3yrs….it has been a comedy of errors after errors such that our status as a nation has dipped during their watch…not again please…when a project fails you go back to the drawing board….

  33. Is this how cheap Zambian Presidency is? Any names, without any capabilities or background checks, are being thrown around. It’s a shame that after 50 years we are still looking for capable leaders to lead our country. I respect Madam Kaseba for her medical profession, period. She would never make a President. Same goaes for likes of Edgar Lungu, Miles Sampa & the likes. Let’s move on from PF, the party that we have complained about being a mistake, let’s change, utilise God given opportunity.

    • “What’s long with a woman president?”
      Possibly her hair or nails though I’ve never examined either her hair or nails closely.
      Sorry Ken, I know what you meant, I know it’s an error but I couldn’t resist teasing you!

  34. @ Wnzelu, we don’t hate HH, but he doesn’t stand a chance. No matter how much you campaign for him, PF will win. This is a fact. And it will be a landslide victory. Reasons: PF will win atleast 20 or 30% in NW, PF will win on the CB with atleast 90%, Northern 95%, Luapula 95%, Lusaka atleast 85%, Eastern with Edgar Lungu atleast 60%, Chongwe area/Luangwa 90%, Central 80%, Muchinga 95%. So where does HH stands? Take it or leave it Mr Wnzelu.

  35. Yes Kaseba can be a good replacement.She undersatand the Vision of her late husband.Zambians lets go for her.But is she ready to stand bearing in mind that her husband just past away? Hope Pipo wont think otherwise if she stood

  36. so dear zambians you can see that pf party died with the owner no one knew how to run it afterhis death they were only hand picked anyway . god has already got someone for us waiting this is no other than hh leader of the most organised party upnd people of zambia its now time we go forward zambia go god bless this nation once again

    • So lets not even vote, or even discuss it……God has already got someone waiting for us, according to you.

      Please don’t abrogate your earthly responsibilities to God.
      Instead
      1. Do ask the Almighty (whoever you perceive him to be) that you may be given wisdom to select the right candidate
      2. do your homework and examine each candidate closely including education, experience, personal conduct, affiliations etc
      3. Ask that every Zambian be given the freedom and protection to make their (wise) choice in peace

      That’s all.

  37. Instead of her being nominated for president of PF,she must be charged of lying to the Zambian masses that her husband was well when infact NOT.
    How can we now vote for a lier who lied through her teeth day in and day out….
    never can she become a president.
    what a stupid idea…
    S.Zulu go drink some more kachasu…………………..

    • The only presidential material left in PF to give HH a good run is GIVEN LUBINDA. Why are people not talking about this great son of the soil? Lungu may go thru in PF but believe you me I do not really believe he can beat HH

  38. Sorry Mr. Sebastian Size Zulu Sir, Didn’t the same husband to Dr Kaseba you are proposing to be presidential candidate say one needed to be a councilor first before aspiring for Presidency. Sata used to say HH has never been a councilor before and should not aspire for presidency, do you then mean Dr Kaseba has been a councilor before.

  39. I can welcome given lubinda he can rule the nation forget about Dr kaseba, and those thinking of under 5 boy let them elect him first as a member of parliament or a ward councilor that’s the first step. HH cannot be a president by far he’s got no experience although is a bush millionaire forget. Given lubinda who win, ba Edgar lungu balajiswa. Thanks

  40. Miles Sampa he cannot bit the under 5 boy HH even Edgar lungu he cannot all this who are harbouring to go to state house there just wasting time. The only person who can give a good run to HH is Given lubinda. Thanks

  41. Please leave her alone to mourn her husband. She is still young. She can try this in 2016 if she decides to join politics.

  42. Those of you calling others ‘economic refugees’ are so ignorant to say the least. This is a global world. People can chose to be where they want and sell whatever they have. And those not in the country have every right to crticise where they deem fit. People do travel to and from Zambia – and even if they don’t, many know what is going on – probably better than some on the ‘ground’ who are perpetually deluded by superficial ‘development’. So don’t patronise people – react to their arguments constructively. Is there a law that a citizen can pnly offer criticism when they are in the country? In fact, being exposed to other systems broadens one’s perception of matters – because you compare, assess and suggest. All countries have issues, its a question of degree and deciding best…

  43. Oh My God! Who resurrected this GHOST or FOSSIL called Sebbastian Zulu from the dead to bring confusion in the PF. Does this Lawyer hold any sound legal mind for him to throw in a mere House into a boxing ring of real men? No wonder Zulu failed lamentably to administer UNIP. This was the vey Zulu who was fired from Sata’s PF Govt.

    Kaseba is known as a medical student who encroached on Sata’s family to reap off Sata’s wealth. The PF Presidency is NOT a Chiefdom that could revolve with the family blood line. PF is an institution subject to democratic norms.

    We therefore plead with our Priests, Bishops and traditional Sangomas to cast this “Zulu-Ghost” back to its grave in order to restore sanity to the Zambian people.

  44. iwe zulu just go and hut for your rats ata . we dont want sympathy apa ni what one can do for zambia elo kaseba we shall visit her later for details pali cobra not now let her mourn in peace , questions will follow fast and furious later

  45. @ MM Le Grand Patron Wa Zabanga, naiwe ulibe nzelu. Mr. Zulu is talking about his party PF and not Zambia, if they want they can get Dr. Kaseba and you cannot tell them no because of Ham Ham! He too can stand on his party’s ticket. What is wrong with you haters?
