FORMER deputy finance minister Newton Ng’uni says Miles Sampa now has what he wanted and must celebrate his cheap heroism.
He says when Sampa “expelled” the nine PF MPs he knew that by-elections would need to be held.
“Miles Sampa must know that he has caused what is going on. He shouldn’t participate in condemning the Speaker for notifying the ECZ (Electoral Commission of Zambia) about the nine vacancies he himself created. When he ‘expelled’ the MPs, he knew that by-elections would need to be held. He now has what he wanted. He must be happy.
Indeed, Miles Sampa must be happy now. He has weakened the PF, the biggest opposition in Zambia. He has weakened all the three organs of the State. He has weakened the presidency of this country,” Ng’uni noted. “Wrongly or rightly State House is seen by many as the Godfather of Sampa’s antics. Sampa has weakened the Judiciary. He has weakened the National Assembly. And the loser? This, our country. Sampa must celebrate his cheap heroism.”
He also said the State or the UPND may have been involved in distabilising the PF to weaken it or get at Edgar Lungu.
Ng’uni said the provision of police protection to hold some congress at which Sampa was elected “president” of PF “says a lot about the government’s involvement”.
“But the true protagonist is Miles Sampa himself. His selfishness has led to where we are today. He has no feelings for this country as long as he benefits from the chaos he creates. Even if the affected MPs go to court, the court’s time will be wasted on trying to clean up his mess and yet there are Zambians who need such court’s time,” wrote Ng’uni on his Facebook wall on Saturday. “At one time Sampa formed his own party but soon he abandoned it to go and cause disunity in the PF. Miles Sampa should know that Zambia needs strong opposition parties to buttress our democracy.”
The problems started when selfish pf stalled the much needed convention, don’t put the blame on upnd.
Pf and unip are one
Missing the wood for the trees as usual! Sampa is not sui juris ba dalaala!!!
Newton Nguni iwe, who ate ma K200,000 nomination fees for PF aspiring candidates? Stop blaming UPND and Mikes Sampa iwe, instead blame Edgar Lungu who held onto PF club leadership even after his resignation. PF was undergoing rebranding only to be messed up by one Edgar Lungu who feels entitled and ordained to be PF and Republican President. I submit to you Newton.
This one oloso! Your cows need milking for amanisi!!!
When Historians look back at Hakainde’s Presidency, they will agree that the point at which he lost his presidency was when he embarked on the Hakainde – Miles Sampa PF Project and the daily arresting of opposition leaders.. 2023 is the year when Hakainde lost it completely. It’s not about Load shedding, High cost of living, or price of Mealie Meal. It’s about the moral question of Hakainde as a Leader, of a multi party democratic state .
Zambians watched in disbelief as the 3 arms of government were being dismembered over a useless project. The Executive and it’s Institutions, the legislature and the Judiciary . Governance systems were self destructing as Hichilema seemed to be resolved to kill the patriotic front at all costs. Little did he realize that this was eating him up, and majority Zambians were not with him on this project.Save for the Tribal Praise Thugs who support everything their demi god does.
Which Institution wasn’t touched by this project? The Police, ministry of home affairs, the national assembly, the Courts..name it. All became under the control of Miles Sampa. The confusion in Parliament is because of this project. People have lost trust in our Judiciary because of the Hakainde – Miles Sampa Project. Hakainde lost all credibility over this project.He exposed him self so much, such that even walking back will be extremely difficult for him..now he wants to continue the useless project with clowns and buffoons like Robert Chabinga and Ng’ona..the man will completely finish himself up. Knowing that he is a Shimololwa…stiff necked, he will continue with the project …and once Sampa spills the beans, Dr Hakainde will in 2026 find himself at his Kraal, wondering what had hit him..Under 5 Politics!
