Zambians Address Alleged Death Threats To President Hakainde Hichilema By Patrick Chinamasa

Some Zambians held a press conference on Sunday, September 17, 2023, to address alleged death threats directed at President Hakainde Hichilema by Patrick Chinamasa. They also demanded a formal investigation into the suspicious death of former Zambian President Mwanawasa in 2008. Chinamasa, a senior official in Zimbabwe’s ZANU PF party, recently made statements that were perceived as a confession of Zimbabwe’s involvement in Mwanawasa’s death and a threat to Hichilema. The strained relations between the two countries worsened when Hichilema appointed Dr. Nevers Mumba to lead the SADC Electoral Observer Mission to Zimbabwe, and Mumba criticized the election process, leading to accusations from ZANU PF that Hichilema was pushing for regime change with the support of Western countries. Addressing the media, Jack Kalala who was representing the Zambian nationals said:

STATEMENT BY CONCERNED TIZENS OF THE REPUBLIC OF ZAMBIA IN REACTION TO SOCIAL MEDIA COMMENTS BY ZANU-PF SENIOR OFFICIAL, MR. PATRICK CHINAMASA, ON THE DEATH OF PRESIDENT LEVY P. MWANAWASA IN 2008 AND THE DEATH THREATS TO THE REPUBLICAN PRESIDENT, MR. HAKAINDE HICHILEMA

– Members of the Diplomatic Corp

– Members of the Press

– Ladies and Gentlemen

On behalf of my fellow concerned citizens herewith me and indeed on my own behalf, I wish to welcome you all to this press conference held on the 17th Day of September 2023 at Mulungushi Conference Center.

Social media comments of Senior ZANU-PF official, Mr. Patrick Chinamasa, (copy attached) in the wake of the SADC Election Observer Mission Report that highlighted noted shortcomings in the conduct of the 2023 national elections in Zimbabwe have been received with utter dismay, shock and alarm by many of our compatriots and indeed by us. Without being prompted by anyone, Mr. Chinamasa volunteered to tell the entire world that his country, Zimbabwe, caused the untimely death of President Mwanawasa in 2008. President Mwanawasa died on August 19 in 2008 in France after suddenly falling sick under unclear and suspicious circumstances while attending the AU Summit in Shann El Sheik Tourist Resort City in Egypt.

As if that was not enough, Mr. Chinamasa severely warned President Hakainde Hichilema that he too could die in the same way.

Our understanding of Mr. Chinamasa’s assertions is that Zimbabwe had a hand in the death of President Mwanawasa and therefore has become a national security threat to Zambia and its President.

Mr. Chinamasa is no ordinary citizen in Zimbabwe because he is a senior official in the governing party, ZANU-PF, in the country. We therefore take it that he was speaking from an informed position. We consider Chinamasa’s allegation that President Mwanawasa had agreed to host a detachment of the British Military in the plot to topple the Government of President Robert Mugabe patently false and absolutely malicious.

There is evidence from reputable sections of the British and South African press (copies attached) that it was in fact South Africa under President Thabo Mbeki which had been requested to offer such support. We therefore wonder why Mr. Chinamasa has not pointed his accusing finger at South Africa but has chosen to direct his anger against Zambia. As for the warning to President Hichilema, we consider it misguided, appalling and provocative because the SADC Secretariat is the appropriate organ to receive complaints or blame on the Election Observers Mission Report since Zambia was not responsible for the report but SADC.

The threat on the life of President Hichilema is a national security issue and should therefore not be taken lightly as we fear for his life, in view of the deliberate reference made to President Mwanawasa’s death as an example. We feel that it wouldn’t be safe and advisable for him to be attending regional summit meetings, especially those that Zimbabwe will host.

In the interest of regional peace, stability and harmonious coexistence, it is our considered view that the highest organ of SADC should take up and deal with Mr. Chinamasa’s unjustified and unwarranted provocations. Lest we forget, it should be noted that Zambia sacrificed so much for the liberation of Zimbabwe and other countries in the region. Many lives and properties were lost and destroyed in helping our brothers and sisters to gain their freedom and independence. Many freedom fighters were hosted in Zambia and they used Zambia to fight for their freedom and independence which they are now enjoying. It is therefore dismaying and outrageous that the brothers and sisters for whom we sacrificed so much should repay us with ingratitude and animosity on baseless and fabricated allegations. As patriotic Zambians we are ready to defend through peaceful means the integrity, values and the good reputation of our country, Zambia. We are ready to safeguard the peace and stability that have prevailed since independence. We need these for the development of our country and indeed the region and Africa.

Consequently, should SADC fail to effectively deal with this matter, we will have no choice but to escalate it to the African Court of Justice. In addition, we are going to formally write to our Government to request them to take up the matter with the SADC Secretariat and AU since President Mwanawasa suddenly fell sick while attending the AU Summit in Sharm El Sheik City in Egypt.

In view of the unsolicited confession that Mr. Chinamasa made, it is our prayer that the Zambian Government should demand for an inquiry to be made in the death of President Mwanawasa to establish the truth. This is in the interest of all the African heads of State as we wouldn’t like a situation where African Presidents should be living in fear of each other but should work together to collectively resolve the many challenges our continent is facing. May God bless our beautiful country Zambia. May God bless and protect our leaders and give them wisdom to lead us to prosperity. May God bless Africa!

I thank you.
Jack Kalala

ZANU HUTUSHONA are reputable certified cowards who claim wars and victories that never happened. The whole of Southern Africa knows this, but we all just let you be because we all know you are not normal. You are insane. Hutushonas have no record of wars or battles they fought in history. Certainly, not against white colonialist Cecil John Rhodes. Instead it's on record that Hutushonas collaborated with Cecil Rhodes and his Mining Company to invade and destroy the Ndebele Kingdom in 1893. Rhodes arrived in Mashonaland in 1890. The coward Shona did nothing, as he took over and hoisted his Flag at the Kopjie to mark his Capital City of Salisbury. Today the Coward HUTUSHONA is claim Nehanda victories which never happened. A spirit medium winning a war, are you mad? What armies did the Cowardly Hutushonas have? Who were their Generals? What country or Kingdom did they have in 1890? Who was the King, Queen, President or Prime Minister? Useless land thieves who spent time fighting each other as Clans, over Khoisan land. The Savages from Central Africa can't even run a town village or city, latter on a Country. They change leadership through Coups, and have no idea of the purpose of elections. Thieves, crooks and cheats buying g PhD Degrees left right and Centre. Lies and dishonesty is they hallmark. No moral standing, these primitive monkey clansmen from Central Africa, Burundi. Tribalists and racists of note. Vagabonds in Southern Africa. GO BACK TO BURUNDI BLOOOOODY MONKEYS. EVERYONE IN SOUTHERN AFRICA HATES YOU. TYRE NECKLACED AND DEPORTED DSILY FROM SOUTH AFRICA. ZINJAAAAAA ZOTHUUUUUVI!!!

This guy Chinamasa has a string of bad luck, akapisa imba yake ndokubirwa akazodhomoka and akatengesa Mugabe, now it's his final destination. I said Regional sanctions are own their way and Zambia is very interested and willing to punish ZANUpf

The arson was stagged to claim fire Insurence. Remember Chinamasa is implicated in the theft of Billions of US Dollars for Command Agriculture when he was Ministrr of Finance. Parliament once debated the issue with Tendai Biti being vocal in demanding that money back.

Billions, people Billion mari yakadai is an inflated imagination, these are just ploy to waste their age, how will they defend when they are on twilight zones, kuda kuroya vakuru uku Vachiri kuda kuitonga that's why we have a constitution that does not cater for age, Vanhu dislodge their preferences asi mutemo hawunei ne izvo

While Advocate Patrick Chinamasa is recoiling his tail and said he did not say ZImbabwe or he killed the late Zambian President Levy Mwanawasa, his story had an impression which suggested that he knew how the late Levy Mwanawasa had met his death. Mr Mwanawasa had also died suspiciously. Advocate Chinamasa must learn to control his emotions. The SEOM Report was not compiled by Doctor Nevers Mumba alone. There were other 44 members drawn from across SADC countries. There were no dissenting voices meaning that they concurred with Doctor MUMBA. Advocate Patrick Chinamasa must be answerable to his actions. He is a senior lawyer. This is my story and I am sticking to it. [ THE BUSH LAWYER4CCC ]
