Deported Catholic Priest Father Viatuer Banyangadora has denied the story published by one of the UPND sponsored online publications in which he is purported to have called President Michael Sata an arrogant dictator.
In a statement released by Zambia Episcopal Conference Communications officer Mwenya Mukuka, Fr Banyangadora expresses surprise at the story attributed to him stating that he has never given an interview to any one or has he ever talked about President Sata since his deportation.He says he has kept silent and will not comment on politics anywhere because that is not his mission, as his calling is about the Gospel.
Fr Banyangadora says he is convinced there are some malicious people behind such kind of stories who want to dirten his name because that is not his language.
He states that he can never say the things he is purported to have said about President Michael Sata.
He has challenged the opposition UPND sponsored online media publication to state where and when they met him where he gave them the story.
Fr Banyangadora says there is no doubt that he is now in grave danger following the story published by the online media.
The Zambian Watchdog quoting unspecified Rwandan media on Wednesday published on its Website the story in which Fr Banyangadora is purported to have called President Sata a dictator who will not survive the 2016 general elections.

I think the priest has turned around because he has realized he does not the support of the compromised ZEC headed by MCS’s brother in-law Mpundu.

it’s a pit people divert from criticism against pf, linking any negativity to upnd.the Zambia watchdog was praised when releasing results on general elections last year. now that they’re publishing some wrong doings by pf, the are called upnd. I like the comment by chipimo Jr that attacks on upnd are a means of diverting from the cry of Zambian.

Zambia Watchdog MANUFACTURES stories to suit its political agenda. Even the Post does this. Most of Watchdog’s stories are imagined and concocted by its staff and are just meant to attack Sata or the PF. They are not meant to inform. It is because the law in Zambia is weak that these defamatory stories are published

AM AMAZED AT THE AMOUNT OF TALK ON THE DEPORTATION OF FATHER AMATEUR. PRIESTS EVEN GATHERING TO OFFER DEMANDS ON HIS RETURN YET HE HIMSELF HAS NOT APPEALED AGAINST THE DEPORTATION.
AM NOT SURE WHAT THE ZAMBIAN CATHOLIC CHURCH WILL DO IF THEY GET FULL DETAILS LEADING TO VITAEURS Deportation.

Amazing you simple minded journalists…., are busy hitting each other than promote objective reporting. What is the point to inject UPND in the Watchdog?? Already, you have taken a side…, meaning you too are on sponsorship…, and you may do us good by calling out your sponsor. Grow up idiots!! Just show how shallow education has gone in Zambia.., we have people with narrow minds and no broader objective. Mind you…, life is finite and who ever you may sing glory today, the powers that may bring it to a grinding halt!! Idiots!

TUMFWEKO is a sub standard PF site. Like all things PF, this site is mediocre including most of the comments which are made by people who cant even write proper English without lacing it with vernacular invectives. Ma Rubbish just like PF itself.
Thanks and good day
