BREBNER CHANGALA SAYS MILES SAMPA’S COURT CASE COULD TRIGGER BY-ELECTION IN MATERO IF NOT WELL HANDLED



By Chamuka Shalubala

Political Commentator Brebner Changala says the court case surrounding Matero Member of Parliament Miles Sampa is signaling a potential by-election before the August general elections.



Mr. Sampa was last week granted a K1 million bail in his own recognizance after appearing in court for a case in which he alleged that the Electoral Commission of Zambia –ECZ- staged a fake polling station in Chawama during the recently held by-election.



Speaking to Phoenix News in an interview, Mr. Changala says the court case could easily result in a by-election if not well handled.


He claims that government is in panic mode and doing everything possible to gain momentum ahead of the elections.



Mr. Changala however says the opposition seems prepared for this year’s general elections, with or without a by-election in Matero.

  1. Are you doubting, only time may be short. He has admitted though did not plead guilty. Time wasting.
    Mukwatayi, so that others may learn from him. With general elections coming many more PF will want to do exactly that. To deter the practice deal with this one decisively.

  2. Opposition prepared for the gen. elections , that’s a dreaming man right there. He can’t even digest the confusion in the opposition ranks.

    A by-election in matero may be coming, watch it, I would put Jere though not strong on the ground the other guy is, can’t remember his name

  3. Changala…what do you mean; when you say “if not handled carefully?”
    These statemenr clothed in suggestions that the state NOT fly. The state is acting in line with the law. A promise that the current regime promised the people of Zambia.
    So you what are you insinuating? That the arrest should not have been made? That due process should not have been followed?
    And you call yourself a goverance expert when you suggest the government abandon the spirit and rule of the law? What an insult you are to trade that you say you ply.
    Changala is the kind of joker we dont need. The kind that the previous regime allowed to roam in the corridors of power and sway their influence as such ended in the position they are in. In the meantime it was reported that him and Kambwili had their children employed in the army. Ndiye goverance iyo? Bottom feeder wa boza….na soni alibe? We need to relegate some of these people where they should be. Let those that deserve and have earned the right to speak speak.
