LAZ Oppose Mchenga’s High Court Judge Appointment
The Law Association of Zambia- LAZ says it does not support the appointment of the current Director of Public prosecutions Chalwe Mchenga as High Court Judge.
Association President Musa Mwenye says LAZ called for the resignation of the DPP Mr Mchenga in December 2010 and that its position has not changed.
Mr Mwenya was speaking in an interview with ZNBC News in Lusaka on Wednesday.
He also stressed the importance of having a judiciary that is independent, transparent and fair.
But on Monday President Michael Sata said he will not lead the nation on witch hunt and advised people with evidence on Mr. Mchenga to produce it to the Anti Corruption Commission or to him.
The President also expressed disappointment with media stories attacking the integrity and credibility of the Director of Public Prosecution -DPP- Chalwe Mchenga.
The President said he will not allow people who can not defend themselves to be judged in the media.

mr. presido,
not mchenga please, dont loose it here.
the mchenga saga if not handled perfectly will make some of us loose confidence in you.
mchenga did alot of unthinkables while the sun (mmd) was shining.
what evedence? you yourself, mr presido, is evidence enough with what you went through in your quest to be presido. we have not forgotten.

I m just thinking aloud.
If Mchenga is fired, government has to pay a lot of money to him or establish a tribunal, then go to parliament and obtain 2/3rd MPs to vote against him etc.
Instead, transfer him as a judge, use him to prosecute all plunderers, get all information from him, if he reforms, well and good or get rid of him later once everything achieved.
Think from strategic point of view. Remember first SEC chief in the USA?

I think people have lost confidence in Mchenga. Getting rid of him will be in the public interest.

Mchenga cannot be High Court Judge baPresident please. Listen to what people are complaining about especially that he once worked with RB. Unless otherwise, Mchenga is a bitter pill to include in your government with or without evidence, period!

On this one, ba sata baitaya zoona. Unless he has some strategy to apoint him and fire him later like some blogers hv eluded to. Otherwise mchenga is a useles rascal and coward who could not perfom on his own. I dont see the difference betwin him and the likes of former znbc director,zesco,times,siulapwa,chifire,etc. We are watching!!!

President Sata is right, those with evidence of the DPP’s sins report to the ACC OR DEC. You cowards whats wrong with yo brains? Even LAZ insists that he should resign, why resign? To coverup what? Can Mr Mwenye just report the DPP’s unjust acts to the relevant authorities for action and not just hallucinating as though he is not a Counsel.

Helloooo King Cobby, mchenga is not wanted becoz he is incompetent period! the best advice you get sir is from the people who speak thru the media and ofcourse also from LAZ and they are all saying NO! this country doesnt need low calibres like mchenga. what will stop him from transferring his incompetence to high court and what will stop him from denying zambians justice. its like making runny-tummy george kunda AG. HELL NO!
