Too bad for the Chief, but i believe Hon Chibuku Kachasu Man is involved in the death of the chief.
How I wish the prophecy that the Chibuku Man will be poisoned and then die comes to pass.
Mr Chibuku you will never enter State House with your foolish and confused supporters.
Zambia is not prepared to have a Muslim as President.

Attention fellow PF Members and Supporters,
Please take this urgently & seriously;
There is a leaking intelligence report which is suggesting that the UPND President Hakainde Hichilema may be declared winner of the next Tuesday (20.01.2015) Presidential Elections.
According to the classified document, our President Edgar Lungu may lose due to violence which most Zambians now believe is instigated by our carders.
The report indicates in parts that HH may win mainly because of the violence and Boko Haram Tag that Hon Lungu has been forced to wear.
The report which is circulating seems to be authentic. I am afraid if we relax as PF, we will be doomed.
According to the report, HH is expected to beat Edgar Lugu by getting 37.4% while Honorable Edgar Lungu is expected to get 35.8%. If we as PF we do not do anything, then HH is Winning with a comfortable margin.
In short, there is a big and high possibility that HH will be our next President after next week’s elections.
I now call on all loving PF Members country wide to do anything best to reverse this eminent lose.
Please let us work hard though time has now ran out to see whether we can retrieve our party from oblivion.
Things on the ground are not well with us.
Please Vote Edgar Lungu for Presidency.

the question is who will take over UPND if HH fails again? Another Tonga? I wait to see what will happen and I am sure many Zambians are equally eager to see

An opinion poll conducted by the Post newspaper has concluded that the opposition can win next Tuesday’ s by-election. The question put on the Post newspaper website was ‘Can the opposition win this election?’ 71% of people who took part in the poll said ‘yes’ while 27 % said ‘no’.
All the opinion polls that have been conducted so far indicate that UPND would win.
A Zambia State Security, Special Division (OP) briefing to acting president Guy Scott on Friday, 17 January 2015 showed that Hakainde Hichilema would win by 68% if the elections were held that day.

I voted for Sata in 2011 and i am not a Bemba.I am a Tonga.I voted for Sata but HH was there.People lets vote for someone who is going to represent all of us and someone who can perform.We can not vote for someone ie who is a thief,drankerd,womanizer etc just because he is a Bemba. Lets look at somebody who can perform,after all when a country does well people out there will not praise a Tonga,they will praise a country as a whole and if the other way round they will not say a Bemba is not doing well,it will be the whole country.This time around i want to try HH,and if he doesn’t perform,we will vote him out,period.

Lungu is not ready to become a President yet,lets give him some bit of time.I passed through Mtendere yesterday at around 8:30,if you see Lungu’s supporters Drinking,moving with beer bottles and making noise. They are doing that coz they know that their leader also drinks like fish. Its just like a Prostitute stands to be a president,all her fellow prostitutes will support her and praise her big time.Really why should we live like that.This is a high position in the country lets stop joking like that.
