‘MMD won’t let UPND grab Mufumbwe’

The ruling MMD says it is wishful thinking for United Party for National Development (UPND) president, Hikainde Hichilema to claim that his party will scoop the Mufumbwe parliamentary seat.

MMD elections chairperson, Mike Mulongoti told QFM in an interview that the people of Mufumbwe are in a better position to state who they want to vote for as their new Member of Parliament and not the UPND leader.
Mr. Mulongoti who is also works and supply minister stated that the ruling party will not stand idle and watch while the UPND grabs the Mufumbwe seat from party.
He said MMD will put up a spirited fight to ensure that it retains the Munfumbwe parliamentary seat.
He said UPND leader Hakainde Hichilema should not get too excited and optimistic of scooping the Mufumbwe seat.
Mr Mulongoti said the MMD is still the most popular party in the country and has the capability to retain all the vacant parliamentary seats.
The Mufumbwe parliamentary seat fell vacant after the death of MMD Member of Parliament Misheck Bonshe.

  1. Mugungulu H. Mwaanga says:

    According to the POST Newspaper of today, the close-to-Youth-Zambian-political-party President of Zambia hopeful HH (Hakainde Hichilema) has gained ground and is making head way to become Zambian President by God’s grace.

    This is evidenced on the ground and also in the media where “According to the situation we found the UPND has gained ground and we should expect another embarrassment like what happened in Solwezi. So, we are really worried as a party about what will happen in Mufumbwe” appeared in today’s POST Newspaper.

    Take care and keep well.

    keep yourn high training to yourself. I have never known career security officers to be reasonable so I understand your reasoning now. You will just continue crying with your HH for now. That I assure you. Your vote is just but one and I shall probably rig to cancel it. Does that pain right. We have highly trained people than you so we shall handle you nicely my friend

  3. FReeman on Earth or is it Freeman on Chibuku,Look dude,am a registered voter from Mufumbwe itself.I’m a highly trained special force,a commando of worth.The tripartite elections are not gonna be held in 2010,it’s 2011 freeman wamu chibuku.It’s always great to start as a corporal and later end-up as a general,i’ve earned all my military insignia!!Come 2011,HH,the pact and myself will hit an R800 moet champagne toast.You mr.Freeman can follow suit and hit a big chibuku toast muchikale nama sepe.

  4. freeman on earth says:

    General Laurent Nkunda or disgruntled corporal
    Lets meet on this blog after the elections. Whichever way they go, that shall not change anything in the political landscape of Zambia for now. Its minor and not very significant though a testimony of the effects towards the 2010 tripartite elections. However, no one can tell me that MMD is losing because its not as simpleas that. SO whether what I say iritates you or not is not an issue coz neither you nor me shall vote in Mufumbwe. Those people do not even know the existence of ZWD and therefore are not familiar with anything you are talking about here. You may be lying or not. how did this former rebel sons leader leave the seat? Did he say I am not standing or what?
    Ba CORPORAL dont confuse people.

  5. Freeman on Earth or is it freeman in hell,look i did not insinuate that being an ex-rebels son would make him win,aikona!!In my statement,what stands out is that,the ex-rebel’s son is now a member of the pact and the fact that he was the immediate past MP before Bonshe.Remember UPND and HH are popular in Northwestern-ba Kaonde nekipale kyabo…by the way,the rebel Mushala was very popular amongst his people,look,now his fight has been justified,there’s too much wealth in Northwestern,what with the prospective oil discoveries.

  6. freeman on earth says:

    General Laurent Nkunda
    Thats a very fun way of reasoning. So just because he is the former rebel son then he wins. Just because Tilyenji is the son of a former freedopm fighter then he wins. Then it could have been very easy to win elections. We could have just been looking at who’s father was who. Then we have it. But its not like that. This is a double thing and it can go either way. As simple as that.

  7. Freeman on Earth,i know you,very,very cantankarous,you are a rubble-rouser!!Remember Mushala junior is a member of the pact and was MP for Mufumbwe before.In the event we field the former rebel’s son,do you MMD twits think kuti we gona lose?Your Mr.Bwezani tourist Rupiah Banda is a big joke.The guy even confessed ati,he never dreamt of becoming president.Now he’s even stopped kachasu and switched to blue label whisky.How can you go on a tour to see floods in a suit,ba RB,do some gum boots,cowboys hut,ask our HH and he’s gonna tutor you nicely on these matters.

  8. James banda says:

    Ba freeman its you who is exhibiting dullness here. You can’t read the mood of the people. I wish you attended the burial of bonshe.

    You don’t know what you are talking about. Continue dreaming.

  9. Mugungulu H. Mwaanga says:

    On “Mr Mulongoti said the MMD is still the most popular party in the country and has the capability to retain all the vacant parliamentary seats“, I am glad the Minister choose his words carefully. Whatever the case, the mighty UPND is ready to grab the Mufumbwe MP seat and I will support the UPND with a hope that it will transform Zambians’ lives in Mufumbwe and elsewhere across the country.

    At this juncture, shall I remind you all of the nice words “The Kapwepwe group dubbed the opponents, the Ngoni-Lozi alliance as intellectuals and alleged that they were CIA agents and the Kamanga group responded by accusing the Bemb-Tonga alliance of having sold out to the communists” from the POST Newpspaper of 7th March 2010.

    This clearly indicates that Bembas and mighty Tongas have worked together in the past and can do it better in this present time contrary to the MMD’s claims.

    Do not lose heart and protect the PACT’s leadership of president HH for Zambia’s betterment.

  10. Village Concept - Kitwe says:

    Solwezi was difficult to grab from MMD considering the investment which is in Solwezi.But for Mufumbwe the battle will be crucial.

  11. Village Concept - Kitwe says:

    Volcanologist. Please mind your bad language insults are long gone.Just state your comments without insulting leaders. We respect your opinion.

  12. mwenemutapa kingdom says:

    upnd/pf will carry the day in mufumbwe. wether you like it or not. pipo just want change. one thing am getting suprises is why do only MMD mps die yet they are close to anykind of medication they would wish? this is a symbol that the hour has gone to has come. there is a tsunami in MMD pliz watchout before we see a serious loss. YAKWIYA NI MIZIMU. THERE IS NO WAY EVERYBODY SHOULD BE COMPLAINING ABOUT YOU THE MMD. AM NOT A POLITICIAN BUT MY VIEWS SHOULD BE TAKEN SERIOUSLY. IF YOU WIN THE 2011 ELECTION EXPECT WHAT HAPPENED IN GUINEA, WHAT HAPPENED IN NIGER. WE CAN CONTINUE LEAVING IN A SITUATION WHERE VERY FEW SELFISH INDIVIDUALS IN THE NAME OF SAVING THE PIPO GETING RICH YET THE POOR GETS POORER. HOW MANY ARE SUCH THAT WE CAN FAIL TO TAKE CARE OF EACH OTHER. JUST 13 MILLION YOU MEAN WITH ALL THESE RESOURCES WE CAN FAIL TO HAVE DECENT HOUSING, DECENT, WATER, TRANSPORT ETC. MY HEART BLEEDS WHEN I GO ROUND THE CITY OF LUSAKA AND SEE THOSE FLOODS IN KANYAMA AND MISIS.

  13. Pact says:

    Where has Mulongoti been of late?? He’s been quite and am even growing to like him. I don’t know whether it is liking him as an improved person or just his absence from the Ranting Club. It’s good for him. I guess bro. Ronnie has taken over the mantle and taking the loss of public standing that comes with it.

    Keep it on! Stop being the mic, Mike. With Zambian politics, u could just become the next loved person…

    … but then I just woke up. What a dream I just had!

  14. freeman on earth says:

    So what did you pipo want Mulongoti to say? Huh That as MMD we are going to lose elections? That would have been sensible you think. Mulongoti is more rational. he is putting things to the electorate whilst HH is taking things for granted and thinking he is going to win. He shall have a shock of his life. HH has been very disappointing of late. i liked the boywhen he just started though he was the worst tribalist I had seen with progressive ideas. Yes tribalist in its literal sense. The way he ascended to power and everything is a proper exhibit of tribalism. And I briefly thought he was a changed man coz I never though he would insult. Now that he does, then I dont know if I can still defend him as not being tribalistic the way I thought. He changes colours and indeed, RB is right to call him a young cobra.

  15. fitebitebi says:

    why spit this kind of vernon? Mufumbwe is up for grab, so get set to campagn. we will get only one MP, from which party,the electorate will decide.

  16. Volcanologist says:

    The pipo of Mufumbwe will decide who should be their parliamentarian. I like Mulongoti rationality lately in the way he analysis national issues. Guess the law degree from UNZA has added value to his reasoning. Keep it up Mulongoti. For HH,he has become another political idiot and does not add value to upcoming youthful politicians. HH is rotten and no wonder his looks are that of a villager from Kanchamba village. How can he claim victory before a vote? In 2008 elections, i thought HH was popular in the said district and others in North-west Zambia. I was shocked that he was list voted an indication that his a reject. Foolish CHIPAKETI cha PF/UPND.

  17. monalisasyndrome says:

    Mulongoti is Tetamashimba reincarnate.

  18. zuze says:

    mulongoti..u are squirrle…dream on man..the pact is winning the seat!!

  19. The Reflector says:

    The Mufumbwe seat is going to the PF-UPND PACT. To hell with MMD… VIVA!!!!

  20. fusekenaiwe says:

    There goes another seat..MMD will not win these by-elections.Which fool is going to vote for YOU?

  21. freeman on earth says:

    Twawina,
    which people havedecided. I shall never vote for the Pact and I know others wont too.. Dont fool yourself. Its not everyone who is in your bandwagon. MMD is better than these other nonsesical patrties in the name of PF and UPND and others. That pains a lot of people I know but thats just a fact.

    james Banda,
    the fact that MMD lost elections in Solwezi does mean that they cannt win Mufumbwe. I have never known such type of reasoning in my life. You can win one election and lose another and vice versa. Dont be fooled and dont exhibit your dullness here.

    Shikalumekalyonso
    That mentality should go. Are you telling me MMD can only win after rigging? Why do you want to confort yourseves into thinking that you are popular and people are just rigging your votes. get the candidate you are supporting and pit him one on one with RB and tell me how that candidate can get better votes than RB for RB to resort to rigging. Poor you. You shall remain in that cacoon forever

  22. japhet says:

    i would rather maintain the current system for now and pray that other mature politicians come on board. SATA is loosing his head and HH is proving to be a political fetus! There pact has no agenda expect of getting into power. And please stop claiming that the Zambian people have decided; which people are you referring to? the Pact cadres?

  23. Shikalumekalyonso says:

    If you mean corrupting people the yes!
    But mind you,people will just get all the things and your money and then vote for a pact!

  24. James banda says:

    Ba mulongoti what fight are you talking about? Why didn’t you put up that fight in Solwezi?

    Ma rubbish ya munthu Iwe.

  25. Twawina says:

    What fight can they put up, that’s how even Solwezi Central was taken. People can’t be fooled any more. VIVA…..
