JAY JAY AUDIO RAISES QUESTIONS ABOUT GOVERNMENT HAND IN HIS ORDEAL.
Good Evening.
Yayayayayayaya!
This audio recording making the rounds on social media is bringing to light many things which many Zambians did not know regarding the abduction. torture and forced admission of Jay Jay to Maina Soko Milliary Hospital.
With what we have heard on this audio, there are many questions which the State and the ruling United Party for National Development ( UPND) will need to answer.
The credibility of this government is on severe test. The picture we get from listening to this audio is that the government employed its machinery ( Police, Milliaty Hospital Staff, State Agents and party operatives) to make Petauke Central Independent Member of Parliament ( MP) Emmanuel Banda give a statement which would incriminate other people instead of those he had already named.
Thabo Kawana Permanent Secretary Ministry of Information and Media is heard on this audio saying he would " brief the President " about his visit and discussions with Jay Jay.
Did Thabo Kawana brief the President on some of his staff whom Jay Jay named as being present when he was abducted and detained at a secret location where he was tortured?
If Dictator Hakainde Hichilema was briefed by Kawana and told about his own staff being involved in the abduction, what has he done about it? Why has he not authorised an official inquiry?
And if he was briefed about this illegal and inhumane action, how could he have ignored it and instead publicly instigated the arrest and charging of Jay Jay for Aggravated Robbery arising from an incident which had already been resolved through a court process?
Does this sound like a President who believes in the rule of law?
The other person who has been mentioned and being present in the room when this audio was recorded is Dickson Matembo one of the two Permanent Secretaries at Ministry of Home Affairs and Internal Security. Did he also brief his Minister Jack Mwiimbu on their mission to convince Jay Jay to change his earlier statement and incriminate other people?
After listening to this, Zambians should now know why Thabo Kawana and Dickson Matembo were so intent on visiting Jay Jay with Television Cameras and claiming that he had no marks of torture on his body, when in fact earlier pictures taken by his family showed bruises on his back and under his feet.
The biggest question is, why has the government refused to believe Jay Jay on the names of people he has named as being among those who abducted him?
The government's credibility is in tatters over the handling of the abduction, torture and now charging of Jay Jay with a crime, while refusing to investigate the crime of abduction committed against him.

WHY IS THE ZAMBIAN STATE BEHAVING LIKE A CRIMINAL ENTERPRISE?
Good Evening.
We had made an earlier arrangement with one Senior Lawyer to write an article on the criminal component on the part of Information and Media Permanent Secretary Thabo Kawana and his Home Affairs and Internal Security Counterpart Dickson Matembo following the release of Part 1 of the audio relating to the dual's hospital visit of incarcerated Petauke Central Independent Member of Parliament Emmanuel Jay Banda.
It is without doubt that the two technocrats committed a crime of interfering with investigations but we are told there are several other criminal charges the dual will face after the United Party for National Development ( UPND) government vacates office in August 2026.
Unfortunately, the Senior Counsel has not gotten back to us as yet and we want to take this opportunity to pause a question that some of you may end up agreeing with us.
From the time the UPND came into power, there have been a number of actions that denote that the UPND government is a criminal gang.
It is now very common for Police officers especially from Force Headquarters to abduct suspects and interrogate them before allowing them to access their lawyers. This is actually what made the Zambian candidate ( Mubita Nawa) lose elections at the International Police (INTERPOL) Executive Conference.
Police breaking into residences or even attempting to break into properties. Then we are now seeing the rise in instances were when one reports or complains about a Senior government official, the official then is the one who reports the complainant to the Police.
Even places of worship have not been spared. Mr. Martin Mbaya was extracted out of church. Emmanuel Mwamba was trailed up to the car wash. Our Chief Consultant is being trailed almost on a daily basis. Consent Judgements that involve million of United States Dollars of tax payers money are classified as Top Secrets, no one appearing in court over Sugilite, the Director of Public Prosecutions ( DPP) can not allow private citizens to privately prosecute those close to the government.
High profile cases like the Gold Scam are prosecuted in secrecy. Not forgetting the establishment of parallel criminal justice system like the Economic and Financial Crimes Court.
The latest one is the issue of the two Senior Civil Servants attempting to coerce Honourable Banda to exonerate the same people he has named as suspects. From what is happening, it is even possible that among the people who interrogate the Petauke Central Lawmaker, some of them are actually his abductors because Mr. Banda can not remember everyone.
There is that possibility because the Police have chosen not to investigate the abduction but instead decided to exhume old cases that were disposed of by competent courts of law.
So the question is, WHY IS THE ZAMBIAN STATE BEHAVING LIKE A CRIMINAL ENTERPRISE?

CROOKED JUDICIAL OFFICERS AND POLICE SCHEME TO STEAL COMPENSATION MONEY.
Good Evening.
Crooked public officers at the Attorney General's offices working together with Police officers have hatched a scheme to raid Treasury accounts of Compensation under the Ministry of Justice to steal money belonging to Sun Pharmaceuticals.
The funds in question are owed to Sun Pharmaceuticals, which won a series of judgements after a twelve year legal battle which went to the Supreme Court in 1995 and 2007.
The group's plan is to use Exparte orders to change ownership of the company, and then instigate a liquidation process so that they can access compensation money which the company won from the government.
Sun Pharmaceuticals owners and directors Vinod Sadhu and Uddit Sadhu are the ones who survived the kidnapping and extortion ordeal related to the same judgement debt, and are complainants in the case of abduction reported to the Police. This is the case which torpedoed the campaign of Police Commissioner Mubita Nawa to become International Police ( INTERPOL) Secretary General, after he was named as having been involved in kidnapping and extortion of the Sadhus as exposed by their lawyers Leverets of the United Kingdom.
The Sadhus also filed a civil case over the same in the High Court in 2023. But while awaiting progress in the court process in which they are due to appear in October 2024, a group of individuals within the state machinery have schemed to illegally take over the company as the means to capture for themselves the compensation money belonging to Sun Pharmaceuticals.
A major step in the scheme is the use of exparte orders, one of which is for the appointment of Thresford Kabanga as Provisional Liquidator for Sun Pharmaceuticals Limited.
The petition was filed in Ndola by Zambia Modern Enterprises Limited as first petitioner, John Kawadilu Kalenga as second petitioner and Mususu Mambo Kalenga as third petitioner.
The group has also obtained an order dated 16th April 2024 that the Administrator General of the Republic Zambia as official receiver, be appointed as the interim business rescue Administrator for Sun Pharmaceuticals Limited, upon reading the affidavit deposed by one John Musheta, the applicant.
This followed an exparte summons for an order for the confirmation of the official receiver as interim business rescue administrator , dated 15th April 2024 in Livingstone.
According to the documents, the same Thresford Kabanga appointed as Provisional Liquidator is also proposed as business rescue administrator in the Livingstone matter, effectively being placed in the position of Doctor and Killer in one go.

IT IS TIME TO DISBAND THE CONSTITUTIONAL COURT IN ZAMBIA
Good Morning.
Yesterday's tepid development in the Edgar Lungu eligibility case notwithstanding, it is time for Zambians to seriously consider forcing their government to disband this reportedly ill-qualified and incompetent band of judges.
Since being constituted, Zambia's misplaced Constitutional Court has made a succession of dubious, embarrassing, escapist and problematic judgments that have caused much scratching of heads. It has simply caused more anarchy in the administration of justice than before it came into being.
Outcomes of the Constitutional Court, resulting from contentions between and within political parties, and those challenging government actions, have continued to favour the sitting government and ruling party. The Concourt is a court biased towards the ruling party regardless of which party. It seems to work in tandem with the wishes of the government of the day, as a result it's decisions are always seen to be political judgements.
In the exceptions, such as in those emanating from parliament, even where correct and logical decisions have been made, the ConCourt has exhibited timidity and failed to prescribe practical remedies, rendering such outcomes merely academic (as they did in the Chishimba Kambwili expulsion case).
The ConCourt's handling of the cases involving the Kabushi (Bowman Lusambo) and Kwacha (Joseph Malanji) cases was embarrassingly partisan and a permanent aberration on it's short history.
It is this same ConCourt that facilitated the dismissal of Hakainde Hichilemaβs Presidential Petition after the 2016 elections, without hearing merits of the case, but simply dribbling the opposition by a skewered interpretation of the 14 days prescribed duration.
Even the initial Edgar Lungu eligibility case can not escape this verdict, which is why the ConCourt itself now wants to insult the intelligence of Zambians by pretending there are serious issues to be addressed through a new trial.
The truth is simply that the new government, having expanded the composition of this Court by packing it with their own people, simply wants to conduct a sham trial to allow this politically pliable group to overturn the earlier decision.
Seeing the direction in which the ConCourt wants to take the country, the simple conclusion is that this institution needs to be disbanded.
Zambia cannot go into the next, potentially most contentious election, with a ConCourt carrying such a kind of record.
When Constitutional lawyer, State Counsel John Sangwa dismissed the previous band of judges of the Constitutional Court as being unqualified and were passing incompetent judgments, the situation was even better than today. This is because the expansion of its bench has now imported some members who are simply meant to tilt matters in favour of the political agenda of the current rulers.
This ConCourt is bad for everyone. It should be disbanded and a proper one be constituted with the Chief Justice as President and the Deputy Chief Justice as Deputy President, in the same manner it is in South Africa.
Zambia's peace and order is now under threat because of decisions of this Court of last instance, which is producing some decidedly under-cooked judgments and rulings.
Courts should be consistent.

UPND PRE-ELECTION RIGGING EVIDENCE MOUNTS
Good evening.
What a wonderful time to write this article because it comes at a time when a party official from the United Party for National Development ( UPND) Government was caught interfering with the electoral process ( Ballots) in Chirundu.
There is mounting evidence of the United Party for National Development (UPND) government's pre-election rigging activities through a secret National Registration Card(NRC) issuance drive in four provinces they consider their strongholds.
The provinces being Central, Northwestern, Western and Southern Provinces and the exercise is being spearheaded by Home Affairs and Internal Security Minister Jack Mwiimbu and his disgraced and embattled Permanent Secretary Dickson Matembo.
Information obtained by the Zambian Whistleblower show that the programme started with a staff attachment in a local arrangement process managed by District Commissioners. The process moved staff from line ministries who were first asked to supply their bank details, and were told they would be attached to the department of national registration from April to the end of July, 2024.
The officers identified to take part in this programme were carefully selected based on their tribal or regional origins, based on their names. They were told to strictly respond only through the office of the District Commissioners.
This fact alone confirmed that this was a political programme managed by Party functionaries within the government through the DCs to disadvantage the opposition. According to Zambian Whistleblower findings, normal staff secondments or attachments are supposed to be done by the Civil Service Commission now Chaired by Dr. Choolwe Beyani.
It has also become clear that this is a political scheme when the officers have remained unpaid since April. It is only because they became disgruntled that they contacted the ZWB with their complaints.
If this was a government programme, the workers attached would have been paid from funds from the budget. Investigations further reveal that upon being confronted for failure to pay the affected Civil servants who have been running this clandestine exercise, Minister Jack Mwiimbu has told the Civil Servants that they do not need to be paid for this exercise because they are already employed by the UPND Government.
Most of the affected Civil servants are from Ministry of Education and Health. The UPND government has since replaced majority of the civil servants with new ones who are expected to run the illegal national card registration project up to October 2024 before Mr. Mwiimbu finally announces the legitimate National-wide national registration exercise.
Zambian Whistleblower investigations further reveal that all those issued with the NRC'S are captured in the voter registration exercise by the Electoral Commission of Zambia ( ECZ) immediately after getting their NRC'S.
The staff have now continued to expose this political ploy by the UPND to boost the number of their supporters with voters' cards in the four provinces.
Those first targeted were the pregnant youths, and later all eligible youths in the four provinces, so that the UPND can gain an unassailable advantage over the opposition in the 2026 elections.
At one polling station in Chibombo, 2124 new NRC's have been issued since April 2024.
CLARION CALL.
With all this said, we have some immediate demands to make on behalf of all Zambians who aspire for free and fair elections before, during and after elections in order to avoid unnecessary disputes.
1. We demand that Mr. Mwiimbu stops this stupidity immediately.
2. We demand that a National wide National Registration Exercise be announced immediately to go in tandem with Voter Registration.
3. We demand that everyone involved in this clandestine activity cease their activities immediately.
4. We demand that the National Treasury should not pay anyone involved a single Coin from state coffers.
5.

The officers identified to take part in this programme were carefully selected based on their tribal or regional origins, based on their names. They were told to strictly respond only through the office of the District Commissioners.
This fact alone confirmed that this was a political programme managed by Party functionaries within the government through the DCs to disadvantage the opposition. According to Zambian Whistleblower findings, normal staff secondments or attachments are supposed to be done by the Civil Service Commission now Chaired by Dr. Choolwe Beyani.
It has also become clear that this is a political scheme when the officers have remained unpaid since April. It is only because they became disgruntled that they contacted the ZWB with their complaints.
If this was a government programme, the workers attached would have been paid from funds from the budget. Investigations further reveal that upon being confronted for failure to pay the affected Civil servants who have been running this clandestine exercise, Minister Jack Mwiimbu has told the Civil Servants that they do not need to be paid for this exercise because they are already employed by the UPND Government.
Most of the affected Civil servants are from Ministry of Education and Health. The UPND government has since replaced majority of the civil servants with new ones who are expected to run the illegal national card registration project up to October 2024 before Mr. Mwiimbu finally announces the legitimate National-wide national registration exercise.
Zambian Whistleblower investigations further reveal that all those issued with the NRC'S are captured in the voter registration exercise by the Electoral Commission of Zambia ( ECZ) immediately after getting their NRC'S.
The staff have now continued to expose this political ploy by the UPND to boost the number of their supporters with voters' cards in the four provinces.
Those first targeted were the pregnant youths, and later all eligible youths in the four provinces, so that the UPND can gain an unassailable advantage over the opposition in the 2026 elections.
At one polling station in Chibombo, 2124 new NRC's have been issued since April 2024.
CLARION CALL.
With all this said, we have some immediate demands to make on behalf of all Zambians who aspire for free and fair elections before, during and after elections in order to avoid unnecessary disputes.
1. We demand that Mr. Mwiimbu stops this stupidity immediately.
2. We demand that a National wide National Registration Exercise be announced immediately to go in tandem with Voter Registration.
3. We demand that everyone involved in this clandestine activity cease their activities immediately.
4. We demand that the National Treasury should not pay anyone involved a single Coin from state coffers.
5.
π8β€2
We demand that the UPND find money to pay the Civil Servants they have been using on this illegal registration.
6. We demand the immediate invalidation of all NRC's and Voter's cards issued in these provinces between April 2024 to date.
Opposition parties should also take an interest in this matter, and list down the names of all the DCs involved in these illegal activities and prosecute them together with Mwiimbu after August 2026 elections.
NRC issuance is a national programme under the Department of National Registration, but the UPND have hijacked the programme by directing it through appointed party cadres, the DCs in order for them to increase their chances of continuing in power.
Such acts by the UPND and Mr. Mwiimbu are a threat to National Security and should not be tolerated by anyone including those who have been issued with the NRC'S and Voter's Cards.
The conduct by the UPND through Minister Mwiimbu, and ECZ are a recipe for trouble.
See attached a copy of the engagement letter used to engage staff in this clandestine exercise.
Good Night.

THE LONG AWAITED ZNS MEALIE MEAL CASE OPENS.
The long awaited Court case involving Our Chief Consultant Thomas Allan Zgambo has finally opened at the Lusaka Magistrates Court.
In this case, Mr. Thomas Allan Zgambo is charged with two counts of seditious practices following the Zambian Whistleblower's questioning on whether the Mealie Meal being imported by the Zambia National Service through Eagle Milling was Genetically Modified Organisms ( GMO).
Mr. Zgambo has been attending Court sessions since 22nd December 2023.
The matter is before Magistrate Simvula and being prosecuted by Public Prosecutor Muchimba and Maloza.
When the matter came up yesterday July 15, 2024, Public Prosecutor Muchimba told a Magistrate who adjourned the matter on behalf of Magistrate Simvula who was not present that the state was ready to commence trial.
Three state witnesses were before Court namely a Mable Bwalya Mutale from ZNS, Detective Inspector Ilishebo from Police Headquarters and the arresting officer Detective Inspector Brian Chipango who was until recently a Seargent and promoted to the rank of Inspector for probably being the attack dog for the Zambia Police command under the Cyber crime unit.
Brian Chipango is the same Police officer who together with others assaulted Patriotic Front ( PF) Chairperson for Information Emmanuel Mwamba but later reported Mwamba for assault. Ambassador Mwamba has since taken up civil action against Chipango in the Lusaka High Cost. We are reliably informed that Brian Chipango's father who retired as a senior Police officer is being brought back under contract to beef up numbers of senior police officers from Northwestern, Central, Southern and Western provinces.
Meanwhile, the Zambian Whistleblower is surprised that ZNS sent Mable Bwalya Mutale to represent the institution when the right person was supposed to be ZNS Commandant Maliti Solochi.
No one among us has had any dealings with Mable Bwalya Mutale. General Solochi and our Chief Consultant had been very close friends before the arrest of Mr. Zgambo and we believe they had conversations relating to the importation of the Eagles Mealie Meal from South Africa. It is would therefore be prudent that General Solochi is the one to come as a witness so that Mr. Zgambo can cross examine him based on shared information between the two.
We are yet to know how much information Mable Bwalya Mutale will avail to the Court bearing in mind that she is no where in the equation. Mr. Zgambo has indicated that whether the state brings General Solochi as a witness or not, he shall ask his legal team ( Makebi Zulu Advocates ) to subpoena General Solochi. Mable Bwalya Mutale is neither a director nor shareholder of Eagles Milling..
The matter has since been adjourned to August 27. 2024 for commencement of trial.
APPEAL.
The Zambian Whistleblower and Mr. Thomas Allan Zgambo in particular would like to vigorously defend this case, himself and the practice of Journalism to make sure that journalism is not criminalized
Background information about witnesses is very important in any criminal court case. We do not know everyone. It is for this reason that we ask you to help us with any information relating to the above named witnesses including General Maliti Solochi. Mr. Zgambo also plans to make a necessary application through the Chief Justice Dr. Mumba Malila to make sure that Court proceedings in his matter are broadcast live from the Court room.
We are aware that Newsdiggers in its call to Dr. Malila to allow live broadcast of some Court cases did not target the case in discussion but we believe it would be good for live broadcasting of Court cases to commence on a case that involves a Journalist in this case Thomas Allan Zgambo.
We promise to as usual treat all information given to us with total confidentiality and professionalism. Mr.
