MAMBILIMA Member of Parliament Jean Chisenga has today taken the walk of shame after being suspended from Parliament for 30 days for gross misconduct.
This follows a complaint by Muchinga area Member of Parliament Emmanuel Banda on March 18, stating that she had placed the house into disrepute and disrespected President Hakainde Hichilema after a National address.
The parliamentarian is alleged to have on March 15th after the National address been heard shouting “Mr President, your lies are too much,” prompting President Hichilema to walk back and engage in a brief.
Mr Banda noted that Ms Chisenga grossly misconducted herself as the address required members to be at their best behaviour and not lower the dignity of the house.
When written to to exculpate herself, Ms Chisenga denied the allegations against her and submitted that the alleged misconduct occurred after the address.
However, in delivering her ruling First deputy speaker Malungo Attractor Chisangano noted that the Presidents address was an auspicious occasion that required members to be dignified and respectful.
“I find that the conduct of the member did not only show disrespect to the President, but also demeaned the decorum of the house. The behaviour was unjustified and unbefitting of the member of Parliament.This is a house of honour ,decorum and dignity. I will not tolerate gross misconduct and indiscipline,” she said.
Ms Chisangano then suspended Ms Chisenga for 30 days from any Parliamentary proceedings.

Bravo !!! There should be order in Parliament, it is not a fish market in Luapula.
They should also close the bat that operates there.
It reveals the dishonourables amongst the honourables.
Your comments are respected Sir, but your phrase about “…not a fish market in Luapula…” is tainted as profiling people of Luapula as of bad behaviour, which I don’t agree with you. I don’t come from Luapula. In my blogs I try to be as fair as possible, loathing anything with undertones of Tribal unlike other Bloggers whose names everyone knows on this Platform who daily virify and mock their Target. I think bad behaviour and uncouthness are personal traits and in every tribe there are such unrepentantly notorious Misfits and Miscreants
I think it is a right decision as there are ways of
Putting your opinion.
She doesn’t even look like a honourable but like those people along Addis Ababa road. No wonder she behaves like that!
The suspension will not change the FACT that Hakainde is a LIAR.
LIAR, LIAR, LIAR.
Vote wisely in 2026.
Indigo, I agree with you. Liars tend to protect each other. 2026.

Elo Indigo, Musonda the other pfidiot Matero Dr’s you applaud such uncouth belligerent behaviour as long as it’s coming from a fellow pfidiot it’s ok? Ifisushi fya hatred bottling up inside you will kill you and 2026 you’ll not vote, idiots!!!
We will vote HH in 2026.
The levels of indiscipline and uncouth behaviour in our National Assembly are shocking. This seems to have been taken to new heights by PF Members of Parliament and those aligned to PF.
It would seem people voted for hooligans to represent them. Just recently, Mporokoso MP, Mr. Mundubile, threatened to use violence in Parliament if they were denied what he deemed their rights.
It is like PF MPs cannot use their heads. They prefer to use their fists. They easily resort to unpalatable language and uncouth behaviour whenever they encounter challenges in communicating. Is it a case of limited vocabulary?
Parliament has never been so low in decorum as is the case with the current parliament. Disgraceful indeed!! Ati honourable! What a misnomer.
