YAMBA, MALANJI FOUND GUILTY OF PROCEDURAL BREACHES AND POSSESSING SUSPECTED PROCEEDS OF CRIME
The Lusaka Magistrate Court has found former Secretary to the Treasury Fredson Yamba and and his co-accused former Foreign Affairs Minister Joe Malanji guilty on two counts of willful failure to comply with laid-down procedures and on 2 out of 8 counts of possessing property deemed to be proceeds of crime including helicopters linked to Mr Malanji.
The court has however acquitted the former Foreign Affairs Minister in count 5 for possession of Gibson Royal Hotel.
The duo was facing ten counts of wilful failure to follow procedure and possession of suspected proceeds of crime.
Sentencing has been adjourned to tomorrow.
No one wishes another to go to prison but
people who chose to transgress against the
law and deprived the people, it is wrong for
Lubinda to ask Zambians to commiserate with
Malanji and Yamba.
Zambians cannot be liberated to a thieving government
from one that is jailing you for stealing.
Wrong message at a wrong time.
Asking people to symphasise with and for thieves going to jail.
This PF is a shameless ensemble.
Really, this party president requires his head to be examined again,
You really want Zambians to vote for you so that you can continue
stealing with no ome of your clique going to jail?
Is that what Zambians want Mr. Lubinda?
Do members of the PF want their leaders to take over
and start stealing the way Malanji did?
Mr. Lubinda, are you telling the nation that it is a
sad because two thieves who stole from them have
been caught and sent to jail?
We as Zambians should be crying when a thief is caught
Mr. Lubinda?
I hope the media could be challenging some of these
politicians on some statement they make. Mr. Lubinda should
have sided with the Zambian people and not the two
jailed thieves. As long as people aspiring for leadership
like Lubinda are not ashamed to back a thief like Malanji amd Yamba,
they should never be supported.
What I remember Mr. Malanji for is his donation of a Mercedes Benz to a Catholic priest in his former constituency (Kwaha East?) and a minibus to the same parish.
The church in general, should be weary of donations from politicians, especially that they donot know the origins of the donation.
Math 27:6
That is very good news, Yamba and Malanji will soon join their fellow thieves in jail. Let me reach out for a double tot of Jameson please. I will avail my vote to the new dawn Government. UPND and HH you have my vote.
Practically all Permanent Secretaries and civil servants who are in court or have been convicted, are where they are because the chose to listen to a shortcut of procedure after getting verbal instructions from a politician.
In this case the short cut originated with yowaz truly late ECL. As Commander in Chief ECL was the only one who could give instructions about use of the Presidential jet.
THE DID NOT CALL HIM BONANZA FOR NOTHING
