Injunction against in the Patriotic Front is a clear abuse of Court Process

Following an uproar and strong accusations by key stakeholders such as the Church and others, that the Judiciary was participating in a State House political scheme to destroy the Patriotic Front and Democracy, the Chief Justice Mumba Malila directed that all PF matters must be expedited and resolved.
To this effect, all matters currently before court were allocated to Justice Mrs. Justice Conceptor Chinyanwa Zulu.
Hence the matters for Miles Sampa, Brian Mundubile, Raphael Nakacinda, Robert Chabinga and Morgan Ngona were all before her for determination and resolution.
So for Chabinga and his lawyers to defy this administrative directive and shop for a forum in Kabwe, is an act of lawlessness and utter abuse of court process.
It is imperative that the Chief Justice ensures that his judges adhere to his directives so that the integrity of the Judiciary is restored and that it is not seen to participate in political schemes designed to destroy Democracy but rises to become a sanctuary and fountain of fairness, equity, righteousness, integrity, and impartiality.
You can say all you want , law stands. This is now technical and all this was because of your own Sampa. Use Lungu’ strategy, using another party like has been in the by-elections or talk with Chabinga seriously. Otherwise, you may not be on the ballot next year
PF would have avoided all these complications if Mr. Lubinda had shown leadership and held the convention to choose new leaders immediately after Mr. Lungu resigned from active politics in 2021 after his crushing defeat at the hands of his archrival, HH.
Instead he played hide and seek with his friend Mr. Lungu and Mr. Miles Sampa seized the opportunity to hijack the party and get even with Mr. Lungu. If you recall, Mr. Sampa was dribbled by Mr. Lungu at their convention in 2015(?). Things have moved from bad to worse since then.
This is a test of leadership for PF and whoever can unravel this twist must be declared sole candidate and the party presidency handed to him on a silverplatter.
Your narrative is good but your advice is bad, Chabinga has used the Courts to file that injunction and you can do the same by going to Court to challenge him, otherwise to tell people to ignore a Court order is grossly misleading them. Don’t you have Lawyers who can take up the matter? Moreover you are not in Zambia yourself and you are telling your friends to do wrong things and then be arrested alone. Arrogance doesn’t help, just use the same Courts that your friends are using and the matter will be resolved.
