      MJ Banda i think you are wrong for bringing politics and tribalist on Sata’s death.No one is happy on the death of Sata, please can you leave HH alone and just concentrate on mourning. please zambians this is time to unite.

    It wasn’t a shock naimwe. Every Jim and Jake knew what was coming. MHSRP! However, the era has begun for undoing all what Sata stood for- tribalism, corruption, and violence. It is now time to distribute the national cake equitably and to demolish the evil cartel that has been hijacking presidents once and for all. It is time to deliver a people driven constitution now. Lastly whoever takes over from the opposition, except for the proven bad leaders from MMD, will be better. The PF leaders will be just up to concealing the massive corruption perpetuated during Sata’s rule (maintaining the status quo) and are therefore extremely undesirable.

  28. mj banda   October 29, 2014 at 5:07 pm

    In Zambia now, its disgusting how they appoint the people who KK and the war vetrans chased to be ruling us. This is calling boers to come and rule us again. Uyo Mzungu opusa if he is not, then he should step aside. He is the vp of the party and no wonder he never acted when King Cobra was around. Bena Zambia be careful he may change the constituition to suit him. Am really disappointed

  29. Tony   October 29, 2014 at 5:43 pm

    May his soul rest in iternal peace,our beloved powerful president.he was the most cerebrated president elect…what a leader to miss.zambians should be strong,united and focused to live up to sata’s dream.

  30. MM   October 29, 2014 at 6:25 pm

    May his soul rest in peace, I ask zambian not to go for by election after 90 days but to wait for general election in 2016 to save money

  31. MM   October 29, 2014 at 6:32 pm

    One zambia One national, zambian we are christian nation. do not politias the death of our beloved president

  32. Holiness   October 29, 2014 at 6:40 pm

    May his soul rest in peace

    my fellow Zambians this is my humble appeal i am away from home studying please let us make responsible statements during this mourning period president Sata was not just a president of zambia He was a husband, father a grand father to some people even as we are making comments let us be mindful of that

    this is not time for cheap politics let us mourn our republican president with the dignity he deserves it is so disheartening to read some of the comments on some online media especially you are alone in a foreign country away from your family let us all stand together as one at this
    time God bless Zambia
