HH Tells PF To Follow The Law In Graft Fight

United Party for National Development UPND leader Hakainde Hichilema has advised the Patriotic Front government to follow the law in its pursuit of the fight against corruption.

Mr. Hichilema tells QFM news that it is important that the PF government sticks to the laws that are in place.

He says some of the decisions being made by the PF government raise a lot of questions when it comes to adhering to the laws of the land.

The UPND leader further adds that much as the UPND would want corruption to be fought effectively, it is important that the PF government sticks to the laws.

Mr. Hichilema claims that the dismissal of the Anti-corruption commission Director General Godfrey Kayukwa was not done in a lawful manner.

He says government should have set up a tribunal to deal with the matter before action could be taken.

Meanwhile Citizens Forum executive secretary Simon Kabanda says there is no need to condemn President Michael Sata on the changes he is making in the country.

Mr. Kabanda says what President Sata needs instead is support if the country is to get back on the right track.

Speaking to QFM, Mr. Kabanda notes that it had become clear during the previous MMD administration that most organizations and individuals were politically compromised thereby making it hard to act in the interest of citizens.

Mr. Kabanda says change in most of the Parastatal organizations was inevitable as they had thrown away their professionalism.

He says it is good that president Sata has given an assurance that he will not give cadres, public service positions, as was the case in the previous government.

Mr. Kabanda has since expressed optimism that the country will in the next few months see objective institutions.

Asking PF to follow the law is right. PF is not the law. HH do no be intimidated by chaps who refuse to see reason. PF have the apetite to abuse the law. This cannot be allowed. Please note that we are a global village. Abuse of human rights, you will be reported to the Hague. At the rate you are going you PF people, you will soon be candidates for Hague.Do not say you were not warned. HH keep up the pressure. Zambia ni Ziko yantu tonse. Period. And we shall not allow any one, I mean any one to shout up anyone. Period. Just get used to the idea that there are others who have different ideas and positions on national matters. Be careful because this god you are creating will ond day eat you. Look at history

What TRIBUNAL ba HH? This guy was fired because he was heading an organ of government that was meant to fight the scourage but he was the scourage himself. Have you forgotten UPG? This country needs a sweep clean from top to bottom and you of all people should support this clean up. I wonder how all of the sudden the people you called corrupt are your bed fellows now. This 1 + 1 is not adding up to 2.

Kayukwa was highly unprofessional. He was defending the corrupt instead of fighting them. Keeping him there for long was not going to be healthy. The President acted in a prudent manner. The action was in the best interest of the nation. HH is trying to play cheap politics as usual. You will never rule this country.Zambia is not Southern Province.

Dear bloggers. Please blog responsibly. I have noticed hat the anti-HH guys say very terrible things about HH, and the anti-Sata guys vomit filth words also about Mr. Sata. This ought not to be so because you are bound to infuriate those that support the man you are insulting and this is not good for peace. We are all Zambians and we don’t need to anger each other all the time. Let’s blog maturely.

BUT THE PRESIDENT IS ACTING LAWFULLY!
WHAT WOULD YOU DO IF YOU DISCOVER THAT EVEN NECESSARY DOCUMENTATION FOR SUCH A TRANSACTION IS NOT AVAILABLE?
WOULD YOU WASTE ANY FURTHER TIME TO RETRIEVE SUCH A VITAL ASSET FROM CORRUPT HANDS?
AS SOON AS SUCH A DISCOVERY WAS UNEARTHED, THE PRESIDENT ACTED PROMPTLY TO RECOVER THE BANK (WHILE FURTHER now CRIMINAL INVESTIGATIONS MAY CONTINUE). COMMISSION OF ENQUIRY IS NO LONGER NECESSARY AS THE MATTER IS NOW MORE OF A POLICE CASE.

THIS IS ZAMBIAN BANK AND WE NEED TO FURTHER GROW AND FRUCTIFY.

ALL EXTERNAL EVIL FORCES MUST BE RESISTED.

ONCE BEATEN, TWICE SHY (we already lost Meridian Bank under similar machinations!!!)- ZAMBIA MUST NOT LOSE ANOTHER ZAMBIAN BANK, period. FUSEKE BAMABBALAMPOTO NYWEBO, ALA!

He is scared that one day sata will wake up and ask him about the companies that he sold on behalf of zambians and which one of them he became major share horder. Just cool down.

Its difficult for a government which has been in power for 20 years to appreciate change. Corruption was deep rooted in the former government. HH you should understand that its difficult for The current president work with pipo he doesnt trust. He has to clean the system. Even you you were busy complaing about that director at anti corruption now that sata has fired this man, are now complaining, please give sata a chance.

October 5, 2011 at 11:17 am

There was no need for a tribunal ba HH. Read the Anti-Corruption Act No. 38 of 2010 Section 10 and if you understand the English very well you will learn that SATA broke no law.He actually acted in accordance with this section of the Act. Specifically read sub-section (3) of section 10. You will learn that the sentence starts with ‘If the President Considers……
So lets learn to read the law fully and not pretend to be geniuses when infact we dont fully understand the law.

HH does it mean “Highly Hopless” appoint a tribunal to look at wether the director of ACC should be fired or not what a waste of time and resources.No wonder he lost, these academicians in UPND would have just been MMD rebranded.Being all talk and no action

And this Highly Hopless president of UPND considers himself an educated man with brains.its not even Rocket science simple plain english he is failing to understand.what if he was preisdent and he had to make critical decisions thank GOD he is not. it makes me shiver to even think about it.I wonder how he made his billions with that IQ.

October 5, 2011 at 11:38 am

Fake article.I also agree with some people saying this article was writen by HH.HH wanted RB to rig elections.He phoned banda to do anything so that Sata could be blocked.Banda has informtion.The tonga baby is the worst tribalist i’ve ever seen in Zambia.Here in eastern, we’ll not even waste a time to vote for a typical tonga tribalist.one guy from northern also said had they known that HH is a tribalist they would have been voting in thousands to defeat the small tribe of HH.We can’t allow such stupidity of tribalism to continue in zambia.This is why people are saying HH came into politics through tribalism.If some tribalists tongas want war let them start we are ready to defend our mother zambia.U can’t just say a tonga is not wining coz bembas and Ngonis don’t like tongas.How did we vote for Mazoka?I think HH should be very careful with such statements.Power angrey chaps can bring tribal war in Zambia.I’ve seen this in HH and some tongas.If the same stupidity continue in UPND it will take ages a tonga to be a president of zambia.To tell the truth Bembas Make 50% of zambian population then plus 25% of eaterns=75%.lambas are just like bembas too.Mkushi,kapiri,serenge,chitambo from central are brothers of bembas too.UPND should just campaign coz tribalism they want to bring will make them start tribal war coz people won’t vote for HH, hence the only option is to find rebels in southern.Already there are some rumours that lot that UPND is trying to find other tribes to support them of revolution but UPND is forgeting that they chased Lozis coz of tribalism of some tongas in UPND.

HH you are a bitter person. There is nothing you are going to say to support Sata.You are busy blaming those exposing corruption instead of condemning those who practised it. The greatest law breakers are those who stole from us and not those trying to put things right. When are you going to grow up HH?

Which law that you & HH are talking about that Sata has broken, if you critisize objectively and with facts people are not ****** even there responces will be respectiful and objective but if your image is of an unreasonable talk shop with no clear agenda people will shut you up in whatever democracy,country,continent or society thats the way it is were ever you go.

October 5, 2011 at 12:15 pm

Each one in the country has his own opinions, so don’t blame HH coz those are also his opinions, instead respect them, let him also respect yo opinions.my opinions are not yo opinions. So no need of criticising one another. ONE ZAMBIA, ONE NATION. together we can fight corruptions.
Mind You

October 5, 2011 at 12:29 pm

Dear bloggers, please give HH space. Which laws is he talking about? He is a lay-person in law. The commissions of enquiries will soon shock him. E.g. Very soon we shall be informed how many people RB and Solomon Jere killed in Mongu; what role HH played in abuse of govt resources during MMD / UPND campaigns. Watch this space. HH you are finished!
Bragadino

October 5, 2011 at 12:47 pm

Ba Kabwe,you are right but eg ,it doesnt make sense to say that “in my opinion the left leg should be on the right and vice versa”.What an opinion!HH lacks objectivity and actually is not a politician.And i feel sorry 4 Upnd because they are lacking leadership.The guy is so weak that literary Upnd is sinking slowly.By the way the few more Mps HH got must not be construed as growth in this election.The guys who didnt want RB voted for HH out of not having better options.Growth of Upnd should have been judged especially from urban areas were people are more literate.So this ka guy is no going anywhere.I think guys tulemona!Most of us remember very well that Sata in 2001 was never liked by all over us but look where he is now,he spoke and ojectively critcized and now all is history!!!!!!!

HH just shut up! U think being in opposition means criticising anyhow,u have failed to build yo own party now how do u expect yoself to build ths nation,there was no way an investigation that matter going continue when there where no legal documents already,u wanted them to waste time and money on things that were simple and straight foward?
mcw

October 5, 2011 at 12:55 pm

people should wake up and realize that Sata needs to follow the rule of law, if this is delaying him with progress ,then let him change the constitution otherwise this will be moving us back and forth.At the end of the day, the positions being changed will be occupied by bootlickers knowing and realising that the next govt will replace them henceforth affecting the entire system.Please lets unite and call a wrong by its right name and that doesn’t mean we re saying the president should step down but all we hope for is a solid govt and a prosperous zambia!
