Miles takes walk of shame after Speaker sends him back to back bench
‘FACEBOOK comments bannist’ and surviving former PF president Miles Sampa was yesterday forced to walk “miles” away from the seat of the leader of opposition in parliament back to his usual back bencher seat after he assumed the front seat meant for leader of opposition.
Speaker of the National Assembly Nelly Mutti earlier joked that Miles was the leader of back benchers, but the Matero MP missed the sarcasm and proudly stood up and strutted all the way to the front.
But before he could even spend a second on the seat, Mutti ordered him back to his passenger seat.
“You will be named honorable member for Matero, can you take your seat please, you risk being named. You are not the leader of the opposition,” said Mutti.
“I can see power is very sweet, especially when you lose it. It’s very sweet indeed.”
The Boba TV content creator was now left with no choice but to take the long walk back to his designated seat while soaked in embarrassment.

What a shame. How can such a man lead? How can PF even allow this man to continue perpetuating this non sense. If they can put Sean Tembo in his place. What is wrong with telling this man enough is enough? He is the reason Edgar Lungu came back to active politics. So how can this man lead PF with such behaviour?
Another one is Mpundu. Mr. Mpundu was recently suspended for language that is unacceptable socially. How he thinks that in a professional setting like Parliament that can be accepted is buffling. In today’s News Diggers he makes an excuse for his bad manners as due to being bullied in school.
That is a sad and trumatic past, that he has to failed to deal with and should not bring personal issues in the house. Why has he not sought the help of a Mental health professional? Sad. But this is what happens when you dont deal with your issues and want to deflect your mental problems on to others. Let him seek help.
