DICTATORS NEVER GOES DOWN ALONE-SANGWA WILL BE REMEMBERED IN OUR HISTORY
One crystal clear thing is that the concourt bench has people who want to say Lungu is ineligible, only they cannot speak out for not knowing who may report them and whether their jobs will be maintained or terminated.Facts are that, all concourt judges including chief Justice Ireen Mambilima knows very well that Lungu is not eligible to contest these elections. But they are deadly scared of him and losing all the huge sums of money they are receiving this is why any person who practices law should have integrity unfortunately the man in state house has none because if he had integrity he was not going to swindle a widow and today he want to parade himself as a humble man. There is no humbleness in stealing and abusing a republican constitution.
These judges deep down their hearts they know that they are putting our country on fire just like Kanganja, judge Esau Chulu, and Shindano are using the police, PF cadres and the ECZ to cause confusion as well. All these institutions have been captured by Lungu.
However, if that court rules in favour of ECL with the very direct clause that prohibits third time holding office, they will actually have killed the constitution and all will understand that the concourt is not before satisfying the interest of Zambians but Lungu alone. It will mean there is no law on which we stand as a people and Lungu will be the law himself. Remember Lungu and his minions have on several occasions daylight without shame threatened judges and key public institutions. How I wish Zambians could clearly follow with keen interest and patriotism of what Lawyer John Sangwa SC has brought out since the appointment of these judges then later bill 10 to date. He has guided the country on what was/ is supposed to be done.
Even during the appointments of these judges Mr. Sangwa made it clear to us in line with the constitution of Zambia who should have qualified to be among the concourt bench but as usual Lungu did deliberately to appoint cowards and none patriots who would dance to his tune and here we are today. As I said it last year that between the two Lawyer Sangwa and president Edgar Lungu, there is one difference one is a true patriot whilst one is an abuser of the law and the constitution of Zambia with impunity.
The biggest challenge Mr. Lungu is going through right now is that he has committed alot of atrocities more than what an ordinary Zambian can see and his fear is that if he let go of power he will be in trouble. His current wish is to make sure that even after 2026 PF rules under a friendly user to him like Nkandu Luo who cannot prosecute him. Sources within the system has charged that he would rather see the country getting into trouble than surrendering power easily.
Lately I have been wondering if the concourt is even necessary in the first place because, if you think about it, almost all its cases concerning constitutional offences committed by the top man or his Government; in which case that court saves to only defend them. May our God be present with you son of the soil John Sangwa and surround you always, in this battle. We don’t care about the outcome, however, this injustice will be put on record and all those office bearers aiding criminality one day they will properly explain to the country why they opted to undermine our supreme law of the land.
