Rupiah Banda Appears Before DEC
Mr. Banda arrived at the DEC offices at around 10:25 hrs with his private administrative secretary Mikatazo Wakumelo and MMD president Nevers Mumba.
The former head of state walked with cadres from the UPND and the MMD from Ridgeway post office to the DEC offices after the cadres that surrounded Mr. Banda’s car demanded to accompany him.
There were near clashes between the police, who were in full riot gear and cadres when the police denied the cadres entry in the DEC offices.
Mr. Banda is being represented by his lawyer, Sakwiba Sikota from the Central Chambers, who arrived at the DEC offices around 9hrs.
MMD vice president for politics, Brian Chituwo, deputy national secretary Chembe Nyangu, former mines minister Maxwell Mwale and former transport and communications minister Geofrey Lungwangwa were also present but were denied entry in the offices.
Other senior party officials and some members of the opposition were also present to give solidarity support.

What has gone wrong with these upnd cadres kanshi? Since when did they become MMD? Their leader HH was so vocal calling rebased currency RB1 corrupt but today sudenly he has become an angel, I hope the gjit can speed up the investigations so that this man can pay back what he stole from the people of zambia, pala wavinapo nase tivinepo!

Politics and politicians, I have seen enough of these cases come and go without yielding any positive results apart from people like sakwiba and co. Who get huge pay for services .

How come Sakwiba Sikota represents ALL politicians facing corruption cases? I see a lucrative venture there.

RB should be made to pay every single coin his long hand pilfered in the Treasury.
The country was close to bankrupcy under the corrupt MMD leadership.

Hoping the drive is to get back a huge % of the loot to Zambians & 30% to Sakwiba. I see Sakwiba becoming the richest lawyer out of these politicians. That is BRAINS Saki!

Mambala RB you should pay back whatever you store. you made people steal beyond their banking capacity to an extent of burying some in case of Liato. By the where was LIATO? I think he should be the best comforter to RB

@ supporters foolish cadres do you know why you are always a cadre come rain come sun shine you are a cadre you cant even find a piece work you thats why many Zambians are living in poverty they involve themselves in many demonstrations, how many hours did you spend that particular day singing and chanting useless slogans for thieves in the name of solidarity. Think twice b4 you get into something please find some thing to do to feed your family and yourselves thats why we have alot of street children their parents are ever busy making useless demos without thinking wicked people change your behaviour.

Stealing is very bad even in the bible its not allowed. A gud leader shud lead by gud examples. If the ‘Head of State’ is stealing openly & giving some of the loot to his sons, what do u expect frm the Ministers surrounding him? LET JUSTICE PREVAIL

These who have not sined should be the first to throw stones at Banda. Let justice prevail so that it will continue even on these that hide in the shadows of Boma ni Boma. Ni banda lelo, tomorow it will be you. Good Lesson for politicians.
