Michael Chilufya Sata revolutionalised politics. He gave us the true meaning of selfless service. He stood for the poor, he spoke for the poor.
He was a comfortable man who lived a life of an ordinary Zambian. He believed in results and we saw the results. His long and results packed political life culminated into the formation of the Patriotic Front.
This is NOT a PARTY but it is a BELIEFE. It is a shared belief of a desired way of life. This is a belief held by ordinary Zambians. A belief that in unity, hard work and endurance they can get the kind of life they desire. This is a belief that never dies. It is more like a religion.
For the first time in world history, we have a country that is run by ordinary people who share this belief. A country that is run by ordinary citizens. A country whose leader represents the common beliefs held by the citizens.
Today is a special day because we as common Zambians renew this common belief we share. The Patriotic Front is for common Zambians, the voters and it is unwise for anyone to ask the voters to vote themselves out of power.
We are fully aware of the capitalist forces trying to wrestle power from the voters so that the country can be run by the rich who will serve the interests of capitalist multi-national corporations. We shall stand strong as voters and ensure that the development gains we have registered under our leadership are sustained.
This is the best way to honour our hero Michael Chilufya Sata. I feel like crying…..I haven’t gotten over Sata’s death…..Let me stop here…….

Sata was a tribalist, a thief, a kaponya .
ALEXANDER NKOSI, SPARE US THE AGONY. HE WAS THE OPPOSITE OF WHAT YOU HAVE WRITTEN. HE WAS SELFISH, A TRIBALIST AND CORRUPT. YOU MAY BE HIS RELATIVE AND I SYMPATHISE WITH YOU BUT I DO NOT AGREE THAT PRESIDENT WAS WHAT YOU HAVE WRITTEN ABOUT HIM ABOVE. HE WAS VERY SACARSTIC AND HAD NO RESPECT FOR OTHER PEOPLE.
Who doesn’t know that Sata was a serious, shameless tribalist? Just walk into any government office and you will confirm this. This is the same scenario in the diplomatic service.
Sata was a selfish, manipulator who only cared for himself. He had no morals and principles. He was a womanizer who stole K2.5 billion from Parliament in support of Chiluba’s third term bid. He laid the bad foundation to the current economic crisis. There’s nothing positive to say about Sata.
