COMMANDER-IN-EXILE: BROADCASTING BRAVERY FROM ABROAD



This is not resistance. It’s a retired civil servant with too much free time, several unanswered charges, and a dangerously emotional relationship with his keyboard.



From the comfort of his undisclosed location in the U.S., he’s decided to liberate Zambia using Wi-Fi and Microsoft Word.



Every morning, he logs on like a man on a mission, fists clenched, ready to post the same tired sentence: “The government has failed.” Sir, the only thing that has failed is your travel plans back home without handcuffs.



In his head, he’s a political exile. In reality, he’s just a Facebook uncle with pending court dates and an unlimited data bundle.

This isn’t courage. It’s remote whining.



While people on the ground are fixing roads, expanding CDF projects, and building schools, he’s out there fixing sentence structure in his next “Breaking” post, thinking it will collapse the government…



Someone tell him: Zambia has 20 million people. None of them are waiting for Mwamba in America to free them.



He calls it patriotism. We call it long-distance noise.

  1. Ambassador Emmanuel Mwamba is a Zambian with all the rights to participate in the National Discourse. There’s absolutely no need to disparage him.
    Yes the government can do the Imita Ufole and Cash for work programs, CDF and Roads. Previous governments were also doing these, but this didn’t stifle others from voicing alternative views.
    Infact Hakainde Hichilema, his Zealots both Tribal and in academia, his rogue media, Koswe and ZWD, opposed everything done by past governments. He even opposed the expanded Bill of Rights in 2016.
    Ambassador Emmanuel Mwamba brings to the fore well researched articles, hence the hatred towards him by the Zealots.
    For example he talked about the unpaid Money owed to Civil Servants, and looked at how Teachers always move with payslips from one financial institution to another at month ends looking for loans, when government owes them a lot.. but prefers the Imita Ufole programs.
    The Civil Servants Unions are sleeping, but Ambassador Emmanuel Mwamba brings this to the fore.
    Celebrating borrowing IMF USD$ 184 Million while losing $3.5 Billion through shoddy deals..or indeed the Mopani deal, the Lusaka- Ndola Road PPP project of shame, the Aflife multi – Million Environmental Management Consultancy deal, and the Fertilizer Contracts like those given to former Information Minister’s Husband…the power purchase agreements, the Medical Containers in some one’s backyard and on and on.
    Ambassador Emmanuel Mwamba informs citizens on these and many misdeeds the government is involved in.

    What offenses has Ambassador Emmanuel Mwamba commited which will bring him in handcuffs from wherever he is ? Assaulting a Police Officer ???? Who doesn’t know the genesis of some of these Cases????
    The person who should be in handcuffs today is Robert Chabinga..6 days since Hon Mulenga Fube lodged in a complaint, we haven’t seen this Thug arraigned before the Police.

    Ambassador Emmanuel Mwamba is part of our discourse. He should be free to participate in everything, even elections in 2026.

    • Yes, he is free to discourse, but he is also obliged to come and substantiate his allegations in Zambian court.He doesn’t care about his sureties but feels a right to injure others including his wife and children (if he even has any)from his self-imposed exile.
      What a wretched existence

  2. Emmanuel Mwamba is also facing criminal cases and jumped bail. So, with all his rights, he is a fugitive who will have to face justice upon return.

  3. His politics is similar to that of Adamson the difference is he is outside the country while the other man was in miombo trees yet underneath the ground, gold but no Facebook.Game meat available.In our Zambian politics this will have to be documented with details of the end of the tour.The young man somewhere is now asking for forgiveness.But the one he is asking for forgiveness from is not the only offended.The offences against the people of the land can only be determined by a competent magistrate of the subordinate court and later judge of the high court.The President may pardon using the prerogative of mercy if a custodial sentence was given.We must be always mindful with our actions.More especially those with families, your child needs your fatherly love and attention but you are not available because of the bad choice of life you have chosen.You may dream that you are the liberator but yet you are just a recruise without proper justifications.Some mental patients do that but it’s unfortunate it’s a mental condition which is very bad indeed.For those that have no record of a mental condition it becomes more difficult to understand them.The suspicion that there is a sponsor may arise particularly if they live outside the country.Where is the sustainability coming from outside the country or and from who with what intentions?
