STOP THE MOCKERY AND DISRESPECT
By Dr Nevers Mumba
I have been asked by several people from all quarters my reaction to the disrespectful conduct of one named Provincial Minister, and some known carders from the UPND.
It is unfortunate that in our restraint from making a hurried comment on the larger matter and the bigger picture, some people have assumed that it is a silent endorsement of this unfortunate behaviour and that we have turned a blind eye. Absolutely Not.
Nonetheless, for the record, and for the avoidance of doubt, we condemn in the strongest possible terms the video circulating online of the well known UPND cadres referring to the body of President Lungu as “akatumbi” — a small or insignificant corpse.
This is shameful.
This is not Zambian.
This is not Christian.
No political affiliation justifies such disrespect. I call on the UPND leadership to also officially reprimand, and distance itself from, this behaviour, and I call on the public to REFUSE to engage in such mockery of the dead.
Lets us mind what we say or do whether in person or on social media. God is watching.
Nobody benefits from such and it is in such seemingly small matters, that we invite a withdrawal of God’s blessings as a nation.
I have learned that the people involved have been strongly reprimanded by many Zambians from all across the nation and they have since publicly apologized.
Let Zambia Choose the Higher Road
We are all saddened by the prolonged delayed burial of the late Sixth President of Zambia.
However, based on the arguments of Mr. Makebi Zulu could he clarify what the Constitution of Zambia states regarding a former President who openly expresses their desire to re-enter active politics? The inquiry we pose to Makebi Zulu is whether it was inappropriate or unlawful for the state to have revoked his entitlements when the late President Edgar Chagwa Lungu resumed his political activities.

The government of Mr Hakainde Hichilema refused the 6th President to access Medical Review in South Africa before he entered Politics. It’s there in black and white..The letter written by Deputy Secretary to the Cabinet and confirmed by the state in their submissions.
And the Courts dismissed the applicants request to have this evidence struck out from the body of evidence by the respondents.
I never read anything from Nervous Mumba, but for once I forced myself to do so..and as usual he never stops Bootlicking. This is the man who called an interview Fred Mmembe gave in Zimbabwe Treason…
And here he is implying that the calling of “Akatumbi kaleisa” is a seemingly minor issue which might affect a Country’s Blessings. He further assumes the government spokesperson ‘s role by saying that the people involved have severely been reprimanded and have since apologized.
Who has Reprimanded these Praise Idiots?
And when did they apologize?
We haven’t heard anything from government, and here we are , the seasoned bootlicker telling us the people involved have apologized.
That’s Nervous Mumba, always lacing his comments with Bootlicking.. even on a straight forward issue like the disrespect the deceased President and family have been receiving from Praise Idiots, and unfortunately from government officials.

Mr. you seem to have personal issues with our spiritual father His Excellency Doctor Nevers Sekwila Mumba, find room in your heart for healing other wise insulting such great men of honor will only shorten your days here on earth.
Well put Mr. Mumba. But I also pose a question. In as much as you have condemned the behaviour of those in UPND have you condemned Bertha Lungu and the insults hurled at the President and the AG?
A woman of her stature, is no different from those in UPND. I have not heard one Political leader speak to the undignified behaviour of Edgar Lungu’s sister; the said head of the family that seems of limited exposure to understand the issues at stake and the arguements in court. Further are there no other elders in the family to sit with woman and help understand if our political and religious seem to only want to hold certain people to a higher moral ground and yet not others?
Ba Mumba go back to those who have asked you to speak out and pose that very question I pose. We seem to want to treat the Lungu family to a different standard devoid of the same appeal for dignity they want of Edgar Lungu. Someone posed the question as to what “dignity is”. Let bertha Lungu answer that and ask her what what was so dignified about her insults. Makebi you fail in your duty as a Lungu’s family spokeman and lawyer. And if your clients can appreciate what I have posed ask for your professional collegues to assist. Those who the Lungus may trust. Or your are too greedy and have cornered the market for yourself?
Ba Nevers Mumba, you are condemning with fear. You know the names of the people involved and you choose to refer to them as named Provincial Minister and Cadre. At times it is good and holy to call a spade a spade. Prophets spoke directly in the faces of all. The problem with my Brother Nevers Mumba is that he is scared that if he names any one of them the obvious question from UPND to him will be “Who appointed you as UPND Spokes Person?” A critical question Nevers can’t answer. Nevers you are supposed to be the salt of this world and the light of this world , how you found yourself as a “Mushanina Bwali” no one ever understands . Be bold as a lion and gather enough power and authority given to you by God and speak truth to power. Amen
