UPND ministers get mealie meal from my home, Bowman Lusambo
FORMER Lusaka Province Minister, Bowman Lusambo says all those accusing him of trying to defect to the ruling UPND just because he is found with its members are nothing but individuals with bad manners.
He said if anything, his friend list is hugely capitalised by UPND ministers and members who even often frequented his home to have nshima, therefore cadres from both parties should desist from violence.
“I receive more UPND ministers and members here, we eat from this house, and I go to their homes too, so if you are killing yourselves, that’s on you. Us (politicians) we talk, we laugh, we exchange notes,” he shared.
“if they don’t have mealie meal they come and get from my home, and if I don’t as well, I get from their homes while you as cadres are killing yourselves. That is rubbish, let us change our mindsets and begin thinking like human beings.”
Lusambo said Zambians should not allow politics to divide the nation as it is nothing but a game.
“Today I can be UPND, tomorrow I can be PF, and the next day I can be Citizens First. It is not a problem and we should not divide this country because of politics, and we want to see President HH and Edgar Lungu having Coffee,” Lusambo said.
The former Kabushi member of parliament therefore emphasised that people should stop spreading false rumors that he wants to join the ruling party just because he is spotted with members of the party, stating that he is only found with them for the purpose of sharing notes alone.
“Not that when you find me with Liswaniso, you start spreading false rumors that I want to defect, those are bad manners! Who told you that when I sit with those people I want to defect? We need to exchange notes, we live in a global world.”
“Sometimes, we even criticise the president when he makes a mistake because President Hakainde Hichilema and Former President Edgar Lungu are both Human beings and can mess up. Even me, when I was Minister, they would call me to tell me that my president has messed up,” Lusambo added.
He further advised the media to come up with a debate where both President Hichilema and Lungu can answer questions to see who is more knowledgeable, as that is democracy.
Lusambo further advised cardres of both political parties not to fight, stating that the leaders of both parties are united and friends.

It will be great for you join UPND so that we have a spot light on Hakainde’s Judiciary.. Some of us are following closely your cases from the time you became cosy with UPND..Cases involving Possesion of property alleged to be proceeds of crime, cases of violence , and alleged involvement in murder during bye Elections in Luanshya. It will be a wonderful case study..
the Musa Mwenye chronicles!
And the desperate UPND is offcourse looking for any potential and desperate lackey to black mail…heard of one Kambwili, a Tribalist? Not really. He is a great colleague , a partner in tribal deception…So Ba Lusambo all vote catchers to use for 2026 are welcome to the sinking UPND regardless of his or her filth.
Die hard MMD, Die hard PF , and soon to be Die Hard UPND…and come 2026 Die hard UKA! Hon Bowman Lusambo!
Multipartism or political pluralism is simply having many political parties unlike one party system.This kind allows divergent views and democratic rights to occur freely.The idea of fighting each other is uncouth and is uncceptable.It is like the way people belong or support different football team.When one defects to another political party there is no need to demonize because that individual is simply exercising his constitutional rights of freedoms .And politicians can mingle and dine together despite belonging to different political parties.Honourable Lusambo is absolutely correct.As a Zambian I personally mingle a lot with all and I don’t ask political parties they belong or tribe.When people do business they don’t ask their clients details of political parties they belong or tribe.You try to do that then your business crumbles.One Zambia One people.One people one nation period.
I can’t believe that it’s the bulldozer talking, apa kwena walanda mune. We shouldn’t allow politicians to decide us just because of politics, NO, NO. Kanshi uchitila Che dala iwe, walikwata amano.
To divide us not to decide us
What happened to the commander of “Nato Forces”?
He has had a change of heart like Paul’s Road to Damascus experience.
Unfortunately, the lesson is lost on the hapless cadres.
