Pst. Nevers Mumba Tells PF: Don’t Use Taxpayers Money To Kill Opposition
MMD President Nevers Mumba has advised the PF government to consider using tax payer’s money to developing the country and addressing the many challenges that continue to affect the citizens.
Dr. Mumba has charged that the PF government has resorted to during tax payer’s money to destabilize the opposition in the country and MMD in particular.
The opposition leader has observed that there are a lot of needy areas in the country that require the attention of the party in government rather than attacking the opposition.
Dr. Mumba has told journalists in Lusaka on Sunday that it is also regrettable that Statehouse has continued to issue threats on the opposition in the country.
He says such a trend is very undemocratic and that with time the PF will pay for the injustices that it seems to be subjecting the people of Zambia to.
And United Liberal Party (ULP) President Sakwiba Sikota has it is incumbent upon President Michael sata to ensure tenets of democracy are upheld.
Mr. Sikota has indicated that the democracy of Zambia has continued to degenerate from the time that the PF went into government.
He adds that the PF government has been trying hard to silence the opposition who in most cases are advocates of the citizens on governance issues.
At the same occasion, Alliance for Democracy and Development (ADD) leader Charles Milupi wondered why the opposition was being stopped from holding meetings when the PF has been holding its political gatherings.
Mr. Milupi has since reminded President Michael Sata how he used to enjoy freedom of association the time he was in opposition.
Mr. Milupi what is more worrying is that the opposition is being stopped from having any form of political meeting including at grassroot level.
UPND leader Hakainde Hichilema and ZDDM president Edwin Sakala were also present.
President Michael Sata has advised the opposition to seek sober forms of engagement with the Government.
President Sata has further counseled the opposition political parties to cooperate with specific law enforcement agencies mandated with the responsibility of maintaining law and order as opposed to creating unnecessary tension.

Dr Nevers Mumba words are those of an American Civil Rights leader Rev. Jesse Jackson who accused then White dominated country of snuffling the Civil Rights Movement in America, the opposition must be credible in offering checks and balances, they must be pre-occupied with unsitting President Michael Sata and the PF government.
The PF will be destroyed by Wynter Kabimba who has a hidden agenda for power and Plot One. He is busy deceiving the President with trumped up charges to deface, GBM, Given Lubinda, Hon. Kazabu (Nkana) and Hon. Mwenya Musenge (Chimwemmwe) these have been labelled as UPND SYMPATHISERS and the continued silence of His Excellency is enough to confirm that they will be axed in 2013.
The opposition will only win if they can take advantage of Wynter’s blunders to divide and rule the PF and Zambia.

As things are today, there is no opposition that can unseat PF regardless of some squabbles in the ruling party. They can join hands to work together but the question is, who will lead that disjointed group if i may call it? Because Hakainde wants to lead at all cost not to be led and so is Mumba.

Surely can Never-us mumba lead the opposition? Can HH lead either? Paatali? Nevers is a president for 2 political parties. HH inherited a strong party which has nose-dived. Kuwayawayafye.

Brig Mishe Collins:…I pity you!!!! Can you refrain from using abusive language especially to those called of God. Irrespective of what your thoughts are about Dr. Nevers Mumba – have respect and remember God PUNISHES all those that touch His people. Soon; you will see the wrath of God in your life – and possibly family. Be careful so tamuletelele abakaele in your family. My friend – ifyakwa Lesa tefyakutwalilako amasange – be careful. I have warned you. If you have nothing good to say – better zip up!
