Quotes

"The idea is to beat up anyone they think is opposed to the government. There's no compromise with these militia; theirs is just violence."
"We cannot have a country where such levels of political intolerance are accepted by government officials. It is sad especially that other items were stolen while beating Mr Lusambo."
"It is sad to learn that Lukulu and Kapiri by-elections cost us Kr11m and that Feira will cost us an additional Kr7.7m. These 3 by-elections will in total cost our treasury Kr18.7m yet only Kr 4m was the total budget for by-election in the 2013 budget" he said
"Zambian politics are headed for a difficult future. We need to take a strong intellectual stand, as people without spine are jumping from one party to the next. They are being encouraged by promises of all sorts of things which really is a classic case of intellectual bankruptcy" he said
