UNITED Party for National Development (UPND) vice-president Canisius Banda is on the verge of eviction after failing to settle his house rentals.
His landlady, Chali Tumelo, alleges that Dr Banda has been a difficult tenant in paying the rentals.
“He has been staying in my house for nine years and paying rent has been very difficult. Sometimes Dr Banda would pay rentals after a month or at times, it takes two months for him to pay. After so many defaults, we decided to give him seven days ultimatum in which to pay, but still he has continued defaulting,” she said.
Ms Tumelo said Dr Banda pays K5,500 per month, although the market rate in PHI is between K7,000 and K8,000.
“The money he is paying is very little. We have not increased rentals because he has been there for a long time. I had planned to evict him but he pleaded with us, and we gave him a chance because at the time, he had lost his wife,” she said.
Ms Tumelo said she entered into a new contract with Dr Banda, but he has continued defaulting, and that when she asked for the payment of rentals, he allegedly went to the extent of insulting her.
“I have all the text messages as proof of the insults he sent to my mobile phone. Dr Banda started treating me as though I was his tenant and he was the landlord. My lawyer and I have asked him to vacate the house on March 31st,” she said.
Ms Tumelo said she has asked Dr Banda to renovate her house before moving out.
But Dr Banda said the allegation is not true and that he has hardly known Ms Tumelo.
Dr Banda said some people are trying to taint his name because he is a politician.

Just evict this heartless moron and make sure that you replace existing locks with new ones .
All lies, he does not even know Tumelo, what a lier?
K5,500 is equivalent to K5,500,000 old currency. This is no “small” money. How much did that house cost the current owner pay for it? These are the people who hijacked the Ftj initiative which was initially meant to support civil servants who missed out on the “give away ” sale of government and council houses.
Dr Banda was an employee of the state just like many intellectuals who have had the courage to join politics. He is not a crook. He is well able to feed himself. What about you?
DR BANDA IS AN IDIOT NOT TO HAVE A HOUSE AT HIS AGE
Dr Banda is too old be renting. Ask HH cos now he is busy bailing out post workers or just he should shift to mutendere.
Can u post something developmental than this nosity issues no progress we tired of seen back bitting issues fools
It is the owner of the house who is telling us @leadership why are you desputing it! Just tell HH to assist his vice president if he has a heart. These are the guys you want to be in govt without his own house what a joke!
Kikikikiki 😂 the pf are so desperate such that they are now buying off landlords with the hope of making opposition leaders look bad. Pf please remember that many Zambians cannot afford basic needs of life. So rather than despise a man who is struggling this might have thr effect of winning him sympathy even though not a true story. I really wonder who pfs strategist is because the chap must be very dull
@nez boyi, your vice president is bankrupt and nor fit to hold public office . HH is busy bailing post workers and can’t help his vice. Let him shift to mutendere, it’s far cheaper but same area
Has he filed for bankruptcy? If you have the proof or even know the definition then please point us to where the legal document is available. Till then continue dreaming and being desperate l. Kikikikiki this is not Nigeria where people can be looked down for not having money. Many Zambians are suffering and if this story was at all true it wouldn’t have the effects your dull party strategist intended. Vote upnd
Nez naiwe, these are indications of bankruptcy. More over he is too old to be evicted. Let him shift to mutendere
what is wrong with mutendere? What are you trying to say about the people that live there? Please let us learn to respect the same people that vote us in power. Are you forgetting how mtendere people voted? Good luck mu august because due to your cosmetic high class mentality the pf have lost touch with people.
Actually he is too old not to have his own house, such a big man without a house sure? So he wants to go into govt so he can plunder and buy a house for himself, Zambians be careful these pipo’s intetions are not good they just want to come and enrich themselves.
This issue is between tumelo and banda. why should everyone get concern?
Iwe nez just help your bankrupt VP
Wrong story,difficult tenant 4 nine years,utesi.
Where is hh let him pay or buy him a house kabili. ba veep kuwaya waya fye.
i know Dr Banda while he worked for the UN alongside dad. He has houses ask ECL’s old friend a mr Mangisto proprietor of blue nile lodges the guy whose entire family lives in USA,the guy who at one time bought plots for all his lodge workers.
Times are just hard for everyone who is not in pf in zambia,mr.Banda’s clients are also not paying him,his house is his source of income too.
Besides he doesnt need HH’s money,his daughter is married to a tycoon who owns international law firm. You should have seen her wedding 5yrs ago where all invited guest where in a convoy of Benz from st ignitius to protea chisamba and we all had rooms booked there.Ask Lupando Mwape. Bane people have money,spair HH’s little moneys.
Iwe sir George, stop your history. The guy is in need. This guy never stole no wonder he is suffering. He should ask for the stolen cash
Its a big not small but big. A big lie. Tumelo knows this. She is lying. Very much lying.
So what? What mo our government is failing
Real issues please!
UPND has sacrificed GBM for political mileage but it is not working but the heap of meat is rotting in cells.

Wait a minute. This fellow is a medical Doctor. Surely the man has some form of practice or consultancy going on. Even if he was operating from a back yard bush thatched hut he should be able to raise ka 10 pin easily. Was’t this fellow in charge of Chongwe District at one point.
wow!!! A first. A broke medical Doctor in a third wold country!
Even witch Doctors can afford rent. Even Pastors are pulling in more sheets than this broke a$$ nigga
By the way, has anyone checked out the serious one sided kick boxing video of the UPND cadre v the three Zabwino Palibe men from last week. Imagine being seated on the ground and having two people in heavy boots kick you simultaneously from both right and left. then before you can stand up another gives you a “family size” slap on your back. Just when you think its over another boot hits you full force in the face. I feel for the red shirted dude. He must still be hearing bells ringing in his head. That what I call third world policing. They kicked the living $hit out of that dude. they kicked him so hard that I’m sure his grand children will feel it when they are born.
Stupid journalism.Give me and others out there proof
We all have one challenge or another here and there no matter how wealthy we may be.
Just ask yourselves ladies and gentlemen. Why would your landlord or someone you owe take issues to the press?
Am not saying this story is true but the motive of publishing such beats my understanding.
Guys are products from Christine health shop good for men??
Dr Banda Here In Vubwi Have Enough Plots 4 Pipo Like U, Just Renowance Upnd Then The Plote Is Yours!
Dullness Is Always Seen When A Dull Person Speaks. He Has Been Renting A House For 9 years. Someone Giving You Hard Time In Pay Rent And You Let Him Stay In Your House For 9 Years? Have You Ever Been To School? Idiots. Vote Upnd.
If you can’t aford to pay rentals for your self, what more to govern the country? you can’t govern coz dis is de sign dat yu are afalure, yu are jst adreamer, yu cant be a leader although it is beter to hav more dreams, my dear yu are lost.
Only an idiot thinks that home owners cannot rent . A wise man getting old and who has older children knows that it is not economical to live in a big house which he raised his kids in before they moved out. A wise man will instead rent his bigger houses and then downsize to renting a cheaper place. That is what we call thinking. You dull cadre. The only mistake he made was renting from a pf cadre
Nez boza, that guy banda doesn’t have anything apart from ndevu
if we vote 4 UPND this guy ll first steal 2 pay rental. to the wad baba en get yo k25000. stop westn yo tym @ university of lsk mekn nothing.
