Both women and men MMD leaders locked-up in one cell

Filed under: Breaking News |

Pastor Mumba others in cells

The MMD leaders held up for having meetings with traditional leaders and people in Markets on the Copperbelt have been locked up in one cell both women and men.

President Nevers Mumba, Chembe Nyangu, Howard Kunda, Anne Chungu, Edith Mataka, Katambo, Chishiba and Raphael Nakachinda have all been locked up at Nkana East Police Station.

Meanwhile the security officers sent by President Michael Sata to Kitwe have arrived in Kitwe and are right now at Kitwe Central Police Station strategising.

They are reported to have carried large quantities of mineral water that is expected to be given to MMD leaders when being interrogated.

The MMD leaders have however been warned by insiders not to accept anything from the security team.

They have been locked up after Police consulted officers from the office of the President. A source within the system has told the Watchdog that the MMD group has been detained after President Sata had talked to expelled MMD National Secretary Richard Kachingwe.

President Sata has ordered police to block any form of meetings organised by opposition political parties using the Public Order Act which civil society countrywide has condemned.

  5. Dr Nevers Mumba carries a following MMD Cadres,suppose the PF Cadres clashed with MMD Cadres in the market and innocent marketeers including Dr MUmba got hurt who would have been blamed? I think DR Mumba should have gone for police permit. He risked his life and others…

    • My thinking exactly! After his efforts were swathed in Chifubu he wanted to go and cause confusion in Lufwanyama. The question we should be asking ourselves is why did he not apply for a Police permit? If he had been denied a permit he could then have complained about being unfairly treated. As far as I can see Nevers provoked the situation and got what he deserved. We can not allow lawlessness because of ‘Democracy’ as viewed by some of these chaps.

      • He doesn’t need one in this country because there is no law which states that before anyone visits the market should ve a police permit.

  7. Zambian Intelligence officers were trained in the East Europe and Iraq to train others. If you are in police custody DO NOT EAT OR DRINK anything that is offered to you. Get Florence to give you food otherwise they will feed you Polonium or Arsenic and then release you. Before long you will be falling apart and they will claim that you have akashishi.

  8. If arrests of the opposition is one way of wanting to weaken it then PF should know that it is digging its own grave. Remember Christianity has grown to date because of the same. The more you persecute your fellow countrymen the more they become stronger. You dont grow with fight. People are watching you and your trick.

    • What would you call lawlessness? A leader who carries a following entering the market place were PF cadres are..without police permit insisting a violence clash or being detained to protect you? What is bad was to keep him in cells, he was suppose to warned and quotioned only…

RB neva denied him any opportunity of gathering the masses but now that he’s president everything shud change to suit his convenience. The Dont kubeba way for u!

  19. Am suprised with those that are saying Mumba and company should follow procedure.what proceduer when police permits are denied?when one is given a permision and later revoked at a last minute?this is getting out of hand if nothing is done quickly by you and me.

  20. Iwe so called SHUSHU you have poor memory and myopic thinking.Sata mudala wandi wehe he was in opposition visited markets and chiefs palaces and MMD did not detain him.And what law in the constitution says that pastors should not vie for a political office? As usual very dull party cadres with little education behave that way like”shushu”.PF cadres think they are more zambians than others.Time is the best judge of all judges.

  21. Obama please dont show your ignorance in public, there is no law in Zanbia which says that you will need a police permit to hold a gathering. What the laws says is that you shall NOTIFY the police for your intention to hold a gathering. I challenge Police to show the public how that document called permit looks like.

  25. why should they be put in one room?Are they not entitled to privacy?How do they answer call of nature?I assume they are not proven guilty yet and need to be treated humanely.I still dont believe campaigns or finding out problems facing the electorate is a preserve of few days or months to elections.MPs should mingle with electorate freely to stay abreast with their needs regardless of which party they serve.Am really disappointed even if am not a politician and do not aspire to be one.Serving God does not mean sticking to the pulpit.God works through people among his people.Nevers can serve God better by identifying with them even through imprisonment but woe to those who do not want people who speak on behalf of the voiceless.God has no legs and hands to serve his people physically but uses ours.Jesus life as human had political aspects to depending on your definition of the word politics.By speaking against injustice and oppressive measures,one is already operating in a sphere of politics for the betterment of society and economical life.social,political and economical issues are difficult to separate from religion and culture if you have to appeal and be relevant to people you are serving unless you want to go secular where you separate religion from politics.However,religion can either unite people or divide them if not well handled.

  26. it indeed a sad chapter in our country.l may not like mmd but to stop them is bad.l have always said our leaders in goverment lack vision.if they have vision where they want to take the country it is impossible to preoccupy themselves with elimanation of the opposition parties.we warned you and the GREAT CHANDA CHIMBA WARNED US.We have to be brave and fight for our rights and our children.this is our country and everyone has a right regardess of his or her status.

  27. You ain’t seen nothing yet. You Zambians should have used your grey matter when casting the vote; not your misplaced excitement and frustrations with MMD. Ever heard of a saying that once ntwenu (e.g. frog) always ntwenu? What did you think you would get out of one Michaele when you exactly knew who he was. In case you didn’t I advise you get back to history and understand the kind of person you have for your President.

  28. Follow the law Mr. mumba, you will never fight the govt by going parallel to the laid down procedure.

    Be patient until your time comes to be a president. clean your house first and then blame the govt where it is necessary, not to cause confusions which confuse you at the end.
