Former Kabushi Member of Parliament and Lusaka Minister Bowman Lusambo says all current civil servants in the United Party for National Development (UPND) government are Patriotic Front (PF) members to point out Ministry of Information and Media Director Thabo Kawana.
” Kawana and I were together in MMD, he can attack the PF on Media but when we meet he calls me Bowman and I call him my friend,” he said.
Featuring on the Hot Seat on Hot FM today (Tuesday) morning, Lusambo says he is not being arrested that he stole but because of talking too much.
” My arrests are not that I did something while in government, are the results of talking too much,” he said.
He says the police officers are his friends because he knows what they go through.
” Police officers are my friends, I know what they go through. We always have a discussion when they come to arrest me,” he said.
Commenting on the recent decision by the PF Media Director to resign from the party, Lusambo says people will only be moved when he decides to move out of the party and form another one.
” The blow will be when I, Bowman says am moving out of the party to form my own,” he said.
He says people knows that he talks to the grassroots and wouldn’t want him to leave the party.
However Lusambo says Mwanza was wrong by going live to talk of his resignation publicly.
” Mwanza was just a worker, we used to pay him for his services, it was wrong of him to hold a press briefing to announce his resignation, he was just supposed to write a letter and take it to the Secretariat,” he said.
Last week, PF Media Director resigned from the party saying it has no direction.
