Lusaka Diocese Archbishop Banda pushing for a political marriage between ECL and Fred Mmembe.

Archbishop Alick Banda yesterday had a closed door meeting with Given Lubinda and Cosmas Musumali Vice Presidents for PF and Socialist respectively. It was proposed that the former President Lungu should stand as President and be backed by Fred Mmembe Vice president.

In the process UKA should first declare ECL as the flag bearer and then later make Fred to stand on the ticket as veep. The Archbishop has indicated that such a marriage will have the blessing of the church. Cosmas Musumali socialist vice President has been tasked to go convince Fred Mmembe to the political marriage.

The Archbishop is very close to former President Lungu; one can easily assume that ba Lungu has already entertained such a relationship. The challenge will be to convince the rest of ba Lungu’s “side chicks” aka UKA Presidents.

The other challenge is UKA is not registered as a political party.- koswe

  1. The Daily Mass the Catholic Church celebrates and the Eucharist that is taken are all bible based.Every word the Priest utters during mass is from the bible.
    The mass that a priest celebrates in any part of the World is exactly the same word for word in each country.Iam not sure if this is the same in other churches.

    • Mesning what? Mass should not be politcal nor should the word of God?
      Please be clear and concise. Not all us are atune to the Catholic nomencleture, lest we misconstrue you and what you say?

    • SABI stop giving false defense especially when you are not sure with what you are talking, myself I’m catholic member I’m not just talking from without catholic church is losing alot of members the reason they give is about not getting the message clear from priests,alot of people they had joined pentecostal churches and SDA church.SDA every year they do crusades just to teach people about the bible not having secret meetings with politicians no.Bishop Banda refused to sign pastoral letter when PF criminals were busy killing innocent people reason because he was dinning with PF criminals and even today he has continued with the same tactics.Stealing of the votes is it preaching ba SABI SABI

  2. The Vatican should now step in as Banda seems to want use the Church to push for a politcal candidate. Is that the calling of a man of the cloth?
    From meeting in Church vesteries to evade security detail to using the pulpit PF and certaim priests seem to want to draw the church into politics.
    If you took a vow to preach the word of God. Do just that not lie to us that you speak for the poor while agitating for people that want power only to kill, steal, and abuse people. They are being or will be called to answer for the crimes that comitted while lying to say they were working for Zambians while looting and buying helicopers and houses.
    The Church ought to be embarassed that they stand with people like that. Banda should rethink his role in the church as one cant serve God and Lungu

  3. Bishop Banda has turned the Catholic pulpit as a political campaign platform for ECL. If ECL was Catholic maybe I would understand the closeness of the two.by the way of what denomination is ECL? Which is his church?
