Sata apologises
PF leader, Michael Sata has apologised to the Mwanawasa family and any one who was offended by his statement that Levy Mwanawasa had wanted him dead.
Speaking in an interview, Sata said his statement was twisted as what he said is not what was reported by governemnt newspapers..
He further said he is not affected by attacks from the party’s Former Secretary Generals Charles Chimumbwa and Edward Mumbi.
The PF leader said their behavior has vindicated their party for expelling them.
Sata also challenged the Minister of Local Government, Eustarckio Kazonga to publish all funds which have been given to the councils since 2006.
His statement follows remarks by Kazonga that the PF councils had been funded though they are failing to deliver.

your reasoning is rather appalling, i do not remember mentioning to you whom my prefered presidential candidate is so there you go hallucinating again, for your own information since you seen to lack in that department, i have other ways of contributing to the development of the country than peddling lies and propaganda, anyway; with the electorate constituting a brainwashed lot like you and your kind it’s not easy to sell a good idea to you…your rebutal is quite weak, i will forgive you, your’re the epitome of the enviroment that groomed you.
I now believe that education is really important.cause personaly i dont believe some who has passed through G9 or G12 can be so shallow minded like mr sata and i want the post to comment on thier odetorail
Sata Go to hell u uneducated old fool!
Although there is no substance in what Anonymous/Senior Citizen writes, his command of English is excellent second to Shakes Spear, this chap is talented. There is alot of millions in him, he is an asset. If I were him I could start competing with James Hardley Chase.(he surpuses Wole Soyinka) I could be one of the big chaps in the world.May be he has no idea that he is worth million dollars and hopeless and greed people are exploiting him
I am impressed by ‘Anonymous’ (although his adjectives can not uncommonly be excessive and occassionaly superfluos), he is a hero on this site. Where did you learn that english sir?
20 malnourished catholic members were paraded by MMD to protest against Arch Bishop Mpundu. First time I am witnessing this. Next it will be against Bishop Joshua Banda, then Bishop Peter Ndhlovu. I wonder what the Bishop has done to deserve such a rehersaled stage managed demo.
Fellow bloggers, some of you may be wondering why Senior Citizen, Anonymous and the like are always off the mark, debating Sata even when the topic is on construction of Shangombo road.
To harmonise the situation, it has been agreed not to strightly follow what the agenda is about, normaly set by ZWD, but as a committed blogger you may choose to go off the mark and set your own agenda.
As you all are aware, Senior Citizen is well ahead of ZWD, he prepares his agenda two weeks before ZWD does, to stop him from posting those off the mark contributions would be infringing on his treasured human rights.
yah yah yah elyo kwaisa abasungu.
Ok, I am now the interpreter for Anonymous, Senior Citizen and Patriot or simply BK.
Dexterous…from the word Dexterity.’ the ability to perform a difficulty action quickly and skillfully with hands, or ability to think quickly and effectively’.
Buttress….’ to make support for an idea or argument stronger by providing a good reason for it’
Flinch…..’to make a sudden small movement because of pain or fear’
Special thanks to Anonymous for those big words.
I will continue to assist those without dictionaries because not every Zambian can afford to buy one.
Did I hear some one say ‘Alistoto, come on earth ?’
Alibi
I dont know how old this boy is, If he was born in the 80s, then talking to him about how rich Zambia is, is a waste of time.
If I mention to him that, at one time we used to assemble vehicles, biycles, TV, music system in Zambia, I will be labelled a lair.
But let me also mention to him that as a student in an institution I used to be paid an allowance as pocket money, I also used to receive free beddings,free good meals,free toiletaries, free learning aids, I never paid anything to the government throughtout the period I was in college.
Does that sound as if I was educated in heaven?
Yes Zambia at one time was heaven on earth. What I talk about can be achieved, but not every person has my dream, you leader may not have any, and you follow him without question why he has no dream for Zambia when he saw what KK did.
Proven dexterous patriotism buttressed by an unflinching singleness driven vision cannot buckle to failed, zero rated, superfluous gongs of an ex-convict cum Presidential candidate.
The superior purpose driven policies of an economist, a product of an acclaimed school, cannot but shine while a felony marred retard continues to fantasize after unattainable privileges, wallowing in mindless invectives to impress his kith and kin.
Now that the cat is out of the bag, Sata’s naked infirmity and limitations of mind have left him with babblings only his gods make sense of: Chinese now good, now bad, no good; Mwanawasa dead me, now am sorry, twisted tongue – he leaves many a good man’s heart tempted to curse.
What more if this sanctimonious retard was mistaken with the privileges of the highest portfolio? Would he not out of sheer uncouth excitement ravage this beloved country to bits and pieces? If he needs more sisters to indulge with, he can surely obtain from Telephone Mpundu. But by state house, no wayz.
Who else apart from Sata invokes the notion that rigging an election is a government escape among those who needlessly cringe under a ballooned fanfare campaign of his? Ever concocting sand castles in empty hype targeting the unsuspecting gullible soiled kaponyas in PF, he helplessly continues not only to deceive them but himself as well.
Political hegemony cannot mean leprous ideas and flirtatious conniving of failures. Value adding is a strange notion to them but fantasy. With their own hands, they wreck what was delivered on a silver platter. How they suppose that the Zambian voter could reward them for their buffoonery is left to them and their gods alone to understand.
MMD machinery hedge counting at grass root is heavy in gear while endlessly they struggle to spell their route. The two headed serpent is now relying to be carried by evil priests with an incline to one. They forget that the twin headed serpent has but one heart which if one head is struck means doom for the whole. Confused and confounded they speak in terrible tongues. Last minute surprise you say, dream on.
But even if Sata was to climb that hill he calls his sanctuary, dressed in the most awful of ritual wear, drunk the bitterest root, even blood and invoked the spirits of his dead ancestors by their individual names in the most horrible of tongues, it will not help him a wit. If he thinks cloning additional lombas will help him, he will have himself to blame: those ilombas will only desire his own blood. Already, they are too many for him to keep a head count.
What if one of these days Sata should turn up with ilombas in each hand on a podium to speak his lies, will his kaponyas still applaud him? What is so plain they cannot see. One day when he is not there, they will still vote for him.
Sata has indeed lost it
Mugungulu H Mwaanga
Kindly remove bible citations from your postings, they are in terrible conflict with your outbusts. You are better of without them. Do not use the name of the Lord in vain.
I was asking myself why the months are crusing, the rains also has continued to disturb those that want to patch potholes, those that want to return back to their base in ……is it John Lange which is flooded with water? Families are squatting at Independence stadium, no hope of a better future. Then I realised God is on the side of the Pact.
If the facts are laid bare that Mr Sata is indeed a convicted criminal, no amount of “editorial cleasing” from the Post will make Mr Sata credible. The Post has a basic problem: always looking to prop up anyone willing to settle old scores in particular with Chiluba. Sata will have alot to contend with as soon as dossiers and information on his past begins to unravel his political life. Don’t under estimate Dr Chiluba(Phd Political Engineering).
Peace please grow up! The fact that you are corrupt, and have the gift of not thinking helps you see what is not there. Come rain come sun 2011 is election year your prefered candidate might not see the light of day and you still be engaged in combat with what doesnt exist.
Just as 1946 passed you by as did 1990, and now 2011 you still be stuck trying to ask why the grass is greener on the other side other than yours.
Thinking is a deep chasm from which each draws each according to their capacity. Yours might be a trifle limited.
Sata is now the one who is doing something as a public relations gimmick. This serpent is not telling the truth about his so called apology. Come to think of it, has this serpent ever apologised for anything. If he wants to apologise, for starters how about apologising for -
1. Supporting FTJ’s third term bid to the extent of unleashing violence on all those who opposed this wicked intention.
2. Saying that he will drop all charges against Chiluba in 2006
3. Adultery
4. Lies about the degrees
5. His future talk as the man says nothing of substance whenever he opens his mouth to waffle.
The 2011 candidacy issue of either UPND president and presidential candidate HH or undereducated ex-convict PF leader MC Sata issue of the UPND-PF PACT has made me to reflect on the Holy Bible record where the people of Jerusalem was asked by Pilate as to whom the people wanted to be released in the following scriptures:
John 18
18:38 Pilate saith unto him, What is truth? And when he had said this, he went out again unto the Jews, and saith unto them, I find in him no fault [at all].
18:39 But ye have a custom, that I should release unto you one at the passover: will ye therefore that I release unto you the King of the Jews?
18:40 Then cried they all again, saying, Not this man, but Barabbas. Now Barabbas was a robber.
While I do not want or need to make president HH appear like Jesus Christ in the above Bible record and Mr Sata MC as Barabbas the robber, there are lessons in that story that can guide the Zambian electorate in the 2011 elections.
UPND’s HH is clean of any moral or corrupt case as of today while Mr PF/Sata MC is a confirmed former criminal case convict at our Mukobeko Maximum Security Prison because he has not denied the allegation by a Mr Ngoma whom he shared the prison cell with and Mr Sata has had extra-marital immoral activities with a known woman and possibly other women in looking at his previous and so on wives.
Some 79 Chekwe contributor in a Lusaka Times (LT) thread “Zambia: Catholics’ conduct forced me to expose Sata-Ngoma” put up nice points which included “Here we are again 18 month or so from elections still fooling ourselves with Sata a bisa born of Nuacusa in Mbeya for President.What if he grows cold on making oath before the Chief Justice over his forged degree and that plus an injunction against his criminal record holds? ” Surely Zambians have been presented with the best (HH) and the worst (Mr Sata MC) for decision 2011 to support as UPND-PF PACT presidential candidate and sadly the support from Bembas on this blog and elsewhere is towards Mr Sata MC when they clearly know that this is bad for Zambia just by looking at Mr PF/Sata MC’s past and present record.
I therefore humbly appeal to all Zambians to serious consider what is best for our personal lives — non-Bemba by tribe, ex-Mukobeko-Maximum-Security-Prison-convict, always inconsistent undereducated PF self-appointed leader MC Sata or an nicely educated and morally uplift Zambia who embraces all people from all walks of life HH to lead the PACT as it goes for 2011 tripartite elections.
Brothers and sisters, let us not let the Roman Catholic Church which is headed in Rome to dictate to us who must be our Zambian President. Let us support those who have shown that they have capacity to do the best for all Zambians. Let us support a leader who will stand up to defend the Constitution of Zambia instead of one who openly said, in the 2008 president by-election campaigns, that he was going to behave contrary to the Constitution of by being Zambian President for 5 yrs if he was mistakenly elected President even though his term is affected by the end of the National Assembly in 2011 through dissolution of Parliament.
Have a blessed day and make useful analysis which is better for your lives than let a former convict of a criminal offence that could have led to his being dismissed from the Northern Rhodesian Police to rule Zambia.

Ba Lopa
It is people like you who fail to see beyond their noses who are making Zambian problems(Corruption, Leadership crisis)go further than they should. Take a deep breath and for once do something you are evidently afraid to do THINKKKKK…….
Alistoto
It would do you good if you landed down to earth. Don’t make us feel sorry for you with your protruding whinings Eish.
Gents? Is it difficult to make contributions without calling each other demeaning names and calling on ones ancestoral hyenas to condemn another? Are we not doing the very same things we ask our leaders not to do? Should the fact that one finds Sata, HH, or RB, a candidate of preference attract the wrath of one who doesnt?
I mean Sata, HH, RB might all have their flaws and if they are pointed out does this become a crime? The divide between animals and us is we can ‘reason’ or at least we are suppose to and when we disagree we can do so in a civil manner without saying this and that yours etc..
Remember when Sata was robbed of victory by LPM some took to violence to force the issue..but he said..’stop it am not a violent man’ so why oh why do we exhibit such scorn purely because of a prefered candidate?
If the Pact doesn’t even know who their candidate will be, how on earth do they hope to win? Simple enough question over to you Prof Alistoto.
Well, i think the big man Mr.Sata is doing this on purpose so that he can lose the 2011 elections…i mean just think about it pips, no one who is in his right frame of mind does something so stupid, yes i said stupid….
Alistoto
you are in your own world surely. You imagine things. So in your opinion who will emerge victorious in next years elections? Be honest for once. Don’t tell me it will be Sata.
This is politics fellow bloggers. whatever the situation, whatever the reason, the ruling party with its media publications would not stand iddle to let the pact thrive and dominate. It Knows quite alright that if one of the leaders is decampaigned then the mmd would win elections. I personally,I disagree and am fedup with the allegations which never ends. Today its about Sata’s criminal offence which they fail to mention, tommorow its about an affair and that day its about what sata or HH has said against the chiefs, mwanawasa family and so on. Why cant the mmd find better ways of developing the countries instead of attacking the opposition. Infact its the opposition that displays its strength and weaknesses hence we should be thankful. Imagin without a strong opposition how these corrupted baggars would misbehave. Viva pact!!!!
His apology is fake because he is not accepting he made a mistake. He is apologising to gain votes! Let HH lead the pact! He is the best leader for the pact!
When we were forming MMD, during the one party state, we were tortured physically and mentally, some of our friends lost employment, others lost their lives, but we continued to fight unitl we won. It was not an easy battle, because we were fighting a regime that was so experienced and well equiped in dehumanising people.
This regime was commanded by RB, William Banda, Times of Zambia, Daily Mail, ZNBC (Veteran).
But soon after we won the battle, the same people that were against the change quickly changed colours and highjacked our manifesto and ditched KK, some people can be lucky I tell you.
Because they are not the architect of MMD manifesto, a document they dont believe in, they have failed to interprete it, the more reason MMD is in dissarray. MMD is preparing to go for elections without any credible alliance. Cosmo, Siulapwa,Sikota, BY have no following. The church, LAZ, Labour Movement and the majority of Zambians have all ditched MMD. In Choma they had to hire youths from opposition to go and give support to Namugala.
RB should humble himself and reconcile with the church, he should not pretend all is fine. MMD has cracks, big cracks which need his attention. Those opportunists he has surrounded himself with will ditch him nextyear after losing elections.
Veteran (Ben Kangwa)
Uli chipuba sana. No wonder your interviews were so boring on television, as you are not a journalist. Do you think you gonna stay there forever? What has Sata done to you? what ever you talk about the name of Sata is mentioned, let me tell you, the target is not Sata, but poor Zambians who your fellow thieves have abandoned for many years. Tell your presido to reduce on trips, create employment, we have alot of educated youths roaming about in the streets with nothing to do. You are sitting on a time bomb mwana, wake up.
I dont know whats so special about Nawakwi topic, ZWD have denied me access. Why? Has this site become an MMD mouth piece? some of us do not belong to any party though we are critical, we are street bloggers, partyless, we only belong to a party on the day of voting and leave immediately after voting, we dont want to be contaminated with filth.
Thanks MPIKA RESIDENT and keep up that spirit. We are almost there and I believe in the next 17 months, Zambia will be in better hands than the RB MMD Administration.
By God’s grace, all will be well and lt us continue supporting people who are taking care of the PACT so that a credible and visionary leader in the name of HH emerges 2011 UPND-PF presidential candidate.

Matt 6:33
Finally brethren what so ever is good, just, lovely…… think about it.We have a candidate in Pact whom we can proudly sale to the nation. We can not afford to gamble with the man who keeps changing statements. Apologies because of public cry is not good. He must think before he speaks.
Sata has proved a national danger Zambia does not need to gamble with. His irrationality, amoralal opportunnism, inconsistency, lack of guiding philosophical values and critical thinking would plunge the country in turmoil.Actually his behavior manifest criminal conduct. Fortunately no nation can throw away its constitution and compromise its highest constitutional office with a certified convicted criminal that cannot pass basic background check. How can other heads of states be cleared by their national security systems to a meeting with a convicted criminal? Sata is in the continum of convicted criminals of the likes of 1970s’ spoiler Musonda.
I implore Sata that as a documented convicted hardcore criminal, he must consider applying to Zambia’s criminal court for his record to be expunged instead of being flattered by Telesphore Mpundu his in-law and some ignoramus armchair cadres that time has sanctified him of his criminal record.
How do you expect the chief custodian of the law to be a convicted criminal in a constitutional democracy? As a natural anti democracy dictator he would spend his years fighting for self cleansing in office through extrajudicial actions in cold blood among opponents. We have head it here senseless PF kaponya wishfully warning Zambians that they will be burned with tires when PF comes in. Thank God they will never win any democratic election through the ballot.
One thing we must learn is that even commercial driven corporations do background checks and they will not, for fear of hurting the company, hire a convicted felon, which is usually clearly stated in their hiring guidlines.Sata is a convicted criminal and his record cannot pass security clearance.Look at businesses, employers or potential employers can get information about your criminal record from a credit report, the state police and/or from a record check on a national level. In most cases, the employer get employee permission in writing. In general, the employer can find out about anything on file irrespective of duration.Sata should have declared his criminal record. Fortunate enough for the PACT with 2 leaders, it has come up now when they have an alternative leaders to redeem the embattled marriage.
As a convicted criminal Sata is legally and automatically disqualified from holding constitutional Presidential job but his PF.
As someone convicted of a felony; he is no different from those who have been convicted of illegal narcotics possession, criminally negligent homicide, 3rd degree assault, 2nd degree threatening, 1st degree reckless endangerment, 2nd degree unlawful restraint, 1st or 2nd degree riot, inciting to riot, or 2nd degree stalking; he could have been convicted of any offense involving moral turpitude; or discharged from the colonial police force under conditions that demonstrate questionable moral character. He cannot work Head of state, guard, or security officer if he had been convicted of a felony, any s-e-x-u-a-l offense, any crime that would question his honesty.
this chap is now boring us ..sata grow up!!
Mugungulu H Mwaanga, I see alot of wisdom in what you have said.Ba Sata should just openly support the luminary HH for candidacy in 2011. Viva HH !!!!
It’s a plus for him to apologise.
Really we must watch what we say. Hey guys lets us not celebrate when others famble, we need to feel sorry and pray for especially for people who represent masses. To our leaders please mwilatusebanya ne fyakulandalanda. To Mr. Chilufya MC thanks for taking up such a courageous step of apologising.
Lol….the zambian circus!
Now thats our Man. He owns up to his mistake. not your kolokombwas you have.
Whatever…! In my view he has already lost the elections. He is making the same mistakes he did towards the 2006 elections. He is busy annoying everybody, and his cadres have shown nothing but consistent violence as a way of expressing their views. What I actually think is that, even though I’m yet to be convinced by Sata in terms of his policies, for the rest of Zambia all he needs is a sloght change of iage for him to win elections. This time he has a true national profile ion terms of support. However, his image is still predominantly negative – which is a shame. I can’t stand another 5 years of Bwezani Kumbuyo Banda. On the other hand, the opposition is still weak. To remove a rulling party you need a huge positive profile that inspires with big positive policies that are laid down in simple language. At the moment, The PACT is a whimper and only strong in predictable areas of the country and even in those areas the MMD will still get votes from there. When you as k Sata about his policies, he just mumbles like an offended dog. If he speaks out it is usually about childish policy-statements like I will put money in each and every pocket. These are the same policies which Kaunda used in 1964 saying an egg for every Zambian, and where did we end – a broken down economy and he hdad to be kicked out in 1991. But because Zambians are known for being docile, Sata is taking advantage of that. He knows that there will be no money in every pocket – anyone who believes that ought to have their head examined! We are so used to suffering that we have stopped voting on the basis of policy, we just vote because we like the way someone talks rubbish and then get surprised when they come into power and change things for the worse. Anyway, probably that is what makes us Zambians.
Saying sorry is not a sign of weakness, it’s a sign of greatness.
If he was misquoted,what did he actually say?
“Where you not arrested prosecuted and convicted in the colonial era”
Ichi cimudala chipuba sana. Everytime he is caught on the wrong foot,he tries to manipulate things. In 1998 or 1999 He wrote a letter to then Head of state warning him to be weary of some MDs in some powerful Multi-nations who were being elected as ward chairmen about their intentions on the presidency. This was in apperent reference to the late Mazoka who was just elected as MMd Ward Chairman for Bauleni. When this letter leaked to the post and was actually published , Chimudala denied all the contents of the letter but accepted the signature. THe rest is history, Mazoka was frustrated out of the MMD. This apology will be hard to accept. Mudala repent for good.
some spirits should not be played with… especially that of Mwanawasa. Let’s be carefull what we say now that he is gone – especially if you know deep inside your heart that whatever you are saying now – you didnt say while he was alive… or had you been given a chance to say it to his face you were not going to say it. MWANAWASA still lives among us – beware.
On “Speaking in an interview, Sata said his statement was twisted as what he said is not what was reported by governemnt newspapers,” i am appealing to all well-meaning Zambians to just understand that Mr PF/Sata MC does not know how to speak proper English let alone write it in a sensible manner. I can assure the whole Nation and World that Mr Sata MC has no capacity to say or write anything proper in good enough English.
And so, I am now advising the former convict at our maximum security prison Mr PF’s Sata MC to just tell the nation that he is ill-educated to run our country Zambia at the level of President of Zambia.
Let Mr PF/Sata MC tell the nation and world his exact history (especially the crimal case he committed which is said to have caused his being fired from the Northern Rhodesia Police that was an instrument of a white muinority colonial government that administered Zambia before our hard working frredom fighters got us all Zambians the independence that we are now enjoying) so that this convict speculation by public servant is put to rest as the PACT can settle to support clean UPND president and presidential candidate HH for 2011 elections against the day-by-day weakening MMD.
Have a good day all.

Matt 6:33
Hope next time Mr President you will be quick to hear and slow to speak
“Did you go through a Bemba traditional ceremoney called ichibombela nganda”
These is not breaking news. However, can times of zambia prove that this is what sata said about levy the way post newspaper embarrassed chi VJ mwanga on the katumbi issue. If they fail to prove it will mean the Cobra was misquoted.
His apology has been accepted afterall we all make mistakes in deeds or words. Just hoping ba Sata has learnt something from this episode. It does not pay much to be commenting on almost anything. Lets move on
plse plse can william banda go to ZNBC and olay those crips ion sata supprting chiluba third term and also what happened at mulungushi rock of authority when the 24 were cased and beaten by mmd thug
Ba Shi Petronela Mpundu, Your brother in-law Telesphore Mpundu has over abused and insulted the late Mwanawasa in his grave. It was a rehearsed hatred press release.Mwanawasa is turning in his Grave at Sata and a hateful Mpundu ever seen in the history of this country.Though the country know better now of your inconsistency, ungratefulness and uncultured spirit of abusing the dead, this pressurized apology lacks the weight to sanctify you.
Elyo muleyumfwa lero, it was done along time ago. Nokulabako twalilabako. Next news please.
What a coward . . .chi ex-cinvict, this brat sucks! when he feels the heat he craws back into his hole.He should watch his dagga tinted mouth which he opens too much… we are tired of his flip-flopping…what a waste
Ba WD, where is the apology? And what does he say he actually said. What, infact was twisted? That is the kind of information we need.
sata thinks everyone is as dull as he is. He’s such a liar. Who does he think he is with his 3rd term ideas. He should explain to the nation why he supported FTJ to run for 3rd term.
Sata is very good at manipulating things, his apology is not accepted he said what he said, how can u have such a person as president , today he says this tomorrow , or no sorry, RB always checks/reads between the lines before issueing any statement RB 2011
