WESTERN WILL BE BAROTSELAND ON MY SWEARING IN DAY – M’MEMBE

Limulunga, Friday (April 5, 2024)

Socialist Party (SP) President Fred M’membe says a Statutory Instrument will be issued on the day he will be sworn in as President of Zambia to declare Western Province as Barotseland.

This came to light when Dr. M’membe paid a courtesy call on Ngambela Mukela Manyando, Prime Minister of Barotseland, at Limulunga Palace, the Headquarters of the Litunga, King of Barotseland.

Dr. M’membe said he had consulted widely over the Barotseland issue.

“If that continues to be your wish, it will be done the very day I will be sworn in. We shall remove Western Province and replace it with the original name, Barotseland,” he said.

Dr. M’membe said no one ought to stop the declaration of Western Province as Barotseland as it has no negative impact on the rest of the country.

Dr. M’membe said name change is not new as regions and countries do it as need be.

Meanwhile, Ngambela Mukela Manyando, Prime Minister of Barotseland, said the Barotseland Royal Establishment (BRE) governance system remains intact, discharging functions across Barotseland.

The Ngambela paid tribute to Dr. M’membe over the courtesy call on the Traditional Leadership.

This is contained in a statement issued by SP Director Media, Brian Hapunda.

  1. I’m not a prophet and will not claim to be one even now, but I think that Zambia under this man will be like North Korea. Just listen to the way he speaks, and how he idolises Putin. Yes, any citizen can vie for the presidency in Zambia but Fred will not be good for Zambia. If, in the people’s estimation, HH is not the right man, then try someone else but certainly not Membe, the man is a communist! Remember what Laura Miti said.

    • I share your views in relation to what type of President would be.

      This is evidenced by many things among which is the venom he spews on all the past and present administrations (with the exception of PF under MCS)

  3. But that’s not the only thing they want. They already call it “Barotseland ” anyway. What they really want is independence or separation from Zambia. That’s the issue Fred M’membe should apply his mind to. He might as well meet Linyungandambo’s leading lights such as Sam Kalimukwa.

    • If such a thing was to happen I can imagine the number of Lozis refusing to forefit their Zambian citizenship. One has to go to the Western Province and see what little development and ask why the educated and well endowed lozis fail to invest in that homeland of theirs. A common thread, remember Dora Silya speaking of Petauke like its was a place worthy of investment. Only to get there and find barren land; not to say where my folks hail from is any better. I would never stand on an anthill to even make such proclaimations….

  5. Good statement. You are now assured of losing the Nkoyas votes and the Mbundas.
    Don’t you know, Meembe that the Barotseland arrangement is a colonial arrangement?

  7. Kkkkkkkkkk you have already divided the country in your dream Kkkkkkkkkk continue dreaming bwana because dreaming is free. I can assure you sir , no reasonable Zambian will vote for you if it is that route you have taken. Zambians are not interested in law breakers. KKKKKKKKKK

  9. Is this such a burning priority that you cannot wait to settle down and engaging your mind before commiting yourself.

    It looks easy and straight forward from the outside but when you get in, you will find that it is not as easy as you are making it out to be. This is how false promises begin. Dr. M’membe is already promising something he cannot deliver, “on my swearing in day…..”.

    • What he will not be able to deliver is making Barosteland a separate state. That may able bring into question his nationality since one of his parents is lozi. What Mmembe is suggesting is that he will rename the Western Province to Barosteland. And all that takes is an SI. Isnt that what Sata did to make his home land a province? Did it make any significant difference? Does that suggest he will be President looking at the interests of all Zambians or ku kaba umu patula among tribes? A divisive man we would be electing right? And yes, very petty.

  11. M’membe is trivialising this MEGA issue here. Ignoring all that this Balotseland call comes with, the man only sees renaming. If he cares HH can also rename all the provinces to suit their ancestry.
    This is being desperate for power.

  13. Where will you be sworn in mmummembe in Barotseland or where

    Because in Zambian Inga nipa Z Wala. And in Western province where there’s Barotseland there’s a litunga who is in Zambia so you will be moving from the post to the mast when you go back you will find there’s nowhere to find yourself in the post but in the soil.

    The same will appear even now, you will be moving from one place to another but you will be deleting yourself until you remain only where you will be found.

    Because ukonawula vote Pali tax evader. Aaiiash, no! Aikona better with HH or anyone else like Dr. Nervous Mumba than yiwe awe.

  15. Well, I was wrong to think that Fred Namakando Mmembe was a learned man. Mmembe obviously does not understand the complexity of the Barosteland issue. There’s more to that issue than Mmembe knows. It’s not about the name Barosteland – like Luapula or Muchinga. What the Barotsi activists demand is separation from the rest of Zambia. Is that what Mmembe wants? If that’s his idea of dealing with the Barosteland issue, then he is effectively decompaining himself.

  17. Mmembe, washula, wanya no tunda! Same time? What a kambwanga you are. Do you take Zambians to be that stupid to allow a cretin like you near presidency?
    Just continue kuzinyela no zishulila, nozitundila!
