OPPOSITION LEADERS VISIT MWEMBESHI PRISON
…..pledge solidarity with incarcerated colleagues
Lusaka… Wednesday September 24, 2025
Opposition leaders yesterday paid a solidarity visit to Mwembeshi Prison, where several senior figures, including Hon. Davies Chama, Hon. Bowman Lusambo, Hon. Munir Zulu, and Mr. Mushota, are being held.
The delegation included Hon. Greyford Monde, PF Chairman for Mobilization, Vice Chairman Danny Yenga, Tonse National Youth Chairman Celestine Mukandila, and SASYDA President General Ibrahim Kabwe Mwamba, among other opposition members.
The team said the opposition was determined to remain united and to fight against what they described as unjust actions by the government.
“We came here today to stand with our brothers who are imprisoned for simply holding a different political view. This is not just about them—it is about the future of democracy in Zambia. We want them to know that they are not forgotten, and that we, as the opposition, will continue to fight for their freedom,” they stated.
The team further accused the current administration of using state institutions to suppress dissent.
“The government must understand that democracy cannot thrive where the opposition is intimidated and silenced. We urge President Hakainde Hichilema to respect the rule of law and allow justice to prevail,” the team stated.
The opposition leaders vowed to continue organizing and speaking out until their colleagues are released, emphasizing that the struggle for justice and democracy in Zambia is far from over.
You make it sound as if it was unfair…
Look at the court documents and see why they were imprisoned….
Never again will we as a people allow what happened under the notorious PF…
Let serve the society and they will hopefully come out with a better understanding of how one ought to live in society…
These characters think criminals need to be appauled. We need to encourage the criminal behaviour of those serving terms for the theft of state funds. Those who thought that they could steal break the law and because they hold some public position they are above reproach. What a sad misdirected group of individuals that seek to undermine the rule of law, yet want to speak and seek public office. What morally bankrupt individuals the have no respect nor an understanding of what the law stands for. Its all bout them and some kind of status. Occupying public office to serve their arrogant whims.
Yes, you can never alighn and associate yourself with convicted criminals and expect to win elections..Android ZO,a convicted criminal can never be addressed as HONORABLE
Why vist vima kawalala who stole your money for their bellies, prostitutes and dicks? Its very unfortunate indeed. Why sympathise with thugs mwebantu? Those criminals should be left to starve and hopefully die of hunger for the aggravated and terrible sins they committed
Why vist vima kawalala who stole your money for their bellies, prostitutes and dicks? Its very unfortunate indeed. Why sympathise with thugs mwebantu? Those criminals should be left to starve and hopefully die of hunger for the aggravated and terrible sins they committed. Pipo like Munir should be left to reflect on their terrible attitude as a result of poor upbringing.
It is so sad that even after conviction they want to fool Zambians. Well, they can only manage to do so to their kind. Never again, will we allow criminals to rule Zambia.
You can visit those thugs as you wish, the truth is they are unwanted in our communities, that’s the reason they are there. We don’t want our communities to be contaminated by them. Crooks.
