Kambwili in trouble for chewing friend’s K620,000
A one-time government spokesperson for the now defunct PF regime, Chishimba Kambwili has found himself in deeper legal trouble, this time not for his running mouth, but for chewing over K600,000 that was entrusted to him for delivery by a colleague.
Micah Ng’ ombe, a businessman has now gone to Court, seeking an order for repayment of the said funds.
According to a statement of claim filed before the Lusaka High Court, Ng’ombe said he gave Kambwili a K620, 000 to deliver to his brother on his way to Luanshya from Lusaka.
He said Kambwili instead used the said funds for his personal use and agreed to pay back within three months after 2021 general elections.
“The defendant has however, failed to pay back the plaintiff his monies and has not showed any willingness to pay back the said monies,”Ng’ombe said.
He said as a result of Kambwili’s failure to pay the debt he has suffered injustice.
The plaintiff wants the court to compel Kambwili to send him the money.
He wants an order for damages and inconvience caused by Kambwili’s actions for failure to fulfil his obligations.
Ng’ombe is also seeking costs and any other relief the court may deem fit.
