The UPND has requested President Michael Sata to refer to Parliament the report of the Commission of Inquiry on the sale of ZAMTEL.
Party Deputy Spokesperson Cornerlius Mweetwa says Parliament is the most impartial and competent body to scrutinize and determine the findings of the Commission of Inquiry.
Mr Mweetwa says referring the report to Cabinet will not be fair because the Commission was established with the authority of Cabinet.
He was speaking at a media briefing at the UPND Secretariat in Lusaka Friday 11/18.
Mr Mweetwa says President Sata should consider the UPND’s request in the spirit of good governance, transparency and accountability.
Meanwhile, the UPND has also asked President Sata to broaden the composition of the Twenty Member Technical Committee tasked to draft the new republican constitution.
Mr Mweetwa says the technical committee in its current composition lacks wider representation required a national undertaking.
He says the UPND is also opposed to holding provisional conventions to get fresh recommendations on the new constitution from the people.
Mr Mweetwa has further challenged government to announce the time for holding a national referendum within the stipulated one year time-frame.
Mr mweetwa jst shut up! U belong to a bantustan small tribal party ! Concentrate on gaining ground nt saying shit abt PF A PARTY THAT GOT OVER 1 MILLION VOTES !
The commission was established by cabinet, so they should report to cabinet. had it been established by parliamentary recommendation then it should report to parliament. Caught sleeping again???
These are the People (UPND) that chewed the Money during NCC. Now they want to put spanners/roadblocks in the way. WE the voters that Put PF into Power will not accept this.
In normal situation that would have been the best but knowing the motive of hh and his twits it can’t never. Go ahead with cabinet sata. If he had dicided on his on u would have bin saying he should have consulted cabinet. What do u want bafikala kanshi. Ka conelius ipumi kwati lufyono lya ndoshi
UPND is bitter, frustrated, envy and when they oppose they make us hate them even more because their criticism is not genuine !. Stand inline with what the pipo want, and not what that southern province limit bantustan party wants.

the problem wit upnd is that you overate yoselves. u want the zamtel report to go to parliament so dat u fraustrate how d flaws based on numbers on acct of yo pact wit mmd. let d law take its course n culprits b brot to book. you are a minority group yet u want to come out so big.
DID PARLIAMENT APPOINT THE COMMISSION? WHY REAP WHERE U DID NOT SOW IWE KA FORE-HEAD-MAN MWEETWA! FORM YO OWN COMMISSION AND TAKE THE RECOMMENDATIONS TO YO UPND HOLOWEZI HOPPOSING HH.. AS FOR THIS ONE CABINET WILL DEAL WITH IT JUDICIOUSLY, NGATI CHAKUBABA RESIGN
UPND is a finished party.We told these guys to stick to the pact but they refused.There is no way that issue can go to parliament because we dont the UPND and MMD marriage.straight to cabinet,arrest DORA and reverse the sale!PERIOD.PAWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHALWA/OR SORRY PAWATO.
No ways! We wont allow HH and MMD to have a say on this; clearly their interests are not in tandem with what we the People crave for. HE MCS, please take this to cabinet and let Chishimba Kamwbwili et al make good meet of all the thieves of the last corrupt regime! Nalanda epompelele
Go sata Go!! Dora should be caged for salling Zamtel for a song. Mukela Muyunda should also be visted. The chap is useless. Cabinet straight, no parliament.
Go UPND Go. You are surely sharper than PF. More educated too. That is the way to go.
Give PF a run. Starting with UPND winning the Chongwe and Magoye seat.
Forget about the noise from empty tins. They make the most noise and make the most insult. It will take them nowhere.
Uuhhh, Nadabwa!. It seems the UPND is just saying things to get noticed by people. How can a graduate like Mweetwa think like this?. Now I think I understand why they say the best Managers are not those who are educated. people like Bill Gates, Ford , our own Ticklay were did not go far at school but look at what they have done!. Shame on educated and rich HH, he will take time to ripe.
I mwe ba UPND wat do u want? Ur selfuckingfish leader chikala chakwe has failed u,deal wit him b4 u start criticising PF.pantu namagoye tulesenda.
Cornelius has a point here on referring it to Parley but I dont certainly agree on “the technical committee in its current composition…”
Be Rational Sportizo.
Iwe chikala u think SATA is as stupid as HH? ur wrong let PF do it its way ba fikala….
Hey Mr Flip Flop supporters tell your old man that he has a month to go before close of 90 days. How can he lie with a straight face. Koma some people are shameless. Shame on the 23% of registered voters that voted for this Mr Flip Flop.
bullman u r an idiot. u think hh or upnd wil take were? idiot
In the 1st place we shud avoid insults. If u hav s/thing 2 say, defend it with reasons. Insults do not contribute 2 a debate. Parliament can’t look at the rpt cos it has pipo involved. Besides parliament is for enacting laws not 2 tackle such cases.
What is wrong with this mweetwa in the sinking party ? He has completely missed it. It is cabinet that must decide what must be done.
Mweetwa when rb and fundanga sold finance bank you said(upnd) that you can’t sell a campany with out cabinet approval as cabinet was dissolved by then,now just because the man you hate as a party is president you call him cabinet and don’t forget the functions of cabinet even when you were saying this you knew the role of cabinet so please don’t lure people to believe that cabinet is the president as potrayed it on znbc news yesterday
