Despite being a convict and facing other criminal charges, the Bulldozer has been sued in the Lusaka High Court by Isoka PF member of parliament Majory Nakaponda, demanding an order for the recovery of K375,000 which she paid for a house in Silverest area, Chongwe.
Nakaponda said the purchase price of the said house was K600,000 as agreed upon by both parties.
She submitted that in pursuance of the said contract, she made payments to the defendant amounting to K375 ,000.
In a statement of claim, Nakaponda wants damages for breach of contract and interest on the claimed money.
She said she has suffered financial loss and emotional distress due to the dishonest conduct of Lusambo
“On or about June 2024, the contacted the defendant that she was ready to clear the balance of the purchase price so that she could obtain vacant possession of the property. The defendant responded that he would collect the money within a week or so,” read the document.
Nakaponda said she was surprised when Lusambo suddenly stopped picking her calls and avoided all manner of communication.
As a consequence, the law maker on October 14, 2024 issued a demand letter seeking a refund of the sums paid to Lusambo.
However, Lusambo failed and neglected to pay back the money despite several reminders.

Kikikikikikiki, now this is political persecution. This guy is in the right place right now. I hope he reflects from his hotel room.
This is the second MP who had paid this convict money to buy a house. It is baffling how these law makers seem not to engage lawyers to do the conveyancing for them. A lawyer would have conducted a search to deduce title and establish that the property was incumbered with a caveat of presumably ACC restriction.
This is a nice Soap Opera. I keep saying that PF was a group of criminals who had no desire to uplift lives of citizens but their pockets only. Today they’ve exhausted most of the loot and now want to come and finish us. Devils!!!
Honourable koseni.
As you write that book, please don’t forget this part. It will be a thriller of a book!
Bowman Lusambo was once the minister of two most important provinces in Zambia. Copperbelt Province, the economic engine of Zambia and Lusaka province seat of Government. The Executive, Legislature and Judiciary and many important embassies are situated in Lusaka province. You had a fraudster as your minister! All this was under Lungu the instigator of Uubomba mwibala alya mwibala. Shame!
How any self-respecting person can release money to Bowman Lusambo without a lawyer as an intermediary beats me. And knowing PF, there’s no embarrassment here. It’s just another day in their political life.
They deserve to lose their money for trusting a conman like lusambo.
What a pity!
