UNITED Party for National Development (UPND) vice-president Canisius Banda is on the verge of eviction after failing to settle his house rentals.
His landlady, Chali Tumelo, alleges that Dr Banda has been a difficult tenant in paying the rentals.
“He has been staying in my house for nine years and paying rent has been very difficult. Sometimes Dr Banda would pay rentals after a month or at times, it takes two months for him to pay. After so many defaults, we decided to give him seven days ultimatum in which to pay, but still he has continued defaulting,” she said.
Ms Tumelo said Dr Banda pays K5,500 per month, although the market rate in PHI is between K7,000 and K8,000.
“The money he is paying is very little. We have not increased rentals because he has been there for a long time. I had planned to evict him but he pleaded with us, and we gave him a chance because at the time, he had lost his wife,” she said.
Ms Tumelo said she entered into a new contract with Dr Banda, but he has continued defaulting, and that when she asked for the payment of rentals, he allegedly went to the extent of insulting her.
“I have all the text messages as proof of the insults he sent to my mobile phone. Dr Banda started treating me as though I was his tenant and he was the landlord. My lawyer and I have asked him to vacate the house on March 31st,” she said.
Ms Tumelo said she has asked Dr Banda to renovate her house before moving out.
But Dr Banda said the allegation is not true and that he has hardly known Ms Tumelo.
Dr Banda said some people are trying to taint his name because he is a politician.

Abanda mwatisebanya. U wil evicted then u b camped mu kraal ya HH.PAY RENTALS IN TIME
This man is useless, if he had chosen to live in George compound paying K1000 per month, he was going to save K4500 per month in tens months buy a plot in better area and saving at the same rate, after 4years from the time of buying a plot he should have being a land lord and avoid such embarrassment. Such are the type of a leader you want to give the country to rule. Who can not manage their home life, how are they going to manage our country.
Fusake u a paid see u. U will not gain anything
so this is how cheap Zambia’s politics have become?

Lol .ba millionaire hh can’t even buy his friend a small house even in matero?
If HH can’t keep his own people then how can he look after Zambia as a nation?
Dr. Banda can’t fail to pay rent. Stop tarnishing the man’s good image. You have sought to find wrong in him, but unfortunately you have failed.
Dr Banda pays rent but he delays in paying the rentals – according to the story above and their tenancy contact is private . So for this landlord to make this public, then he wants to gain some political mileage from Paya Farmer PF which will not work. Zambians needs food, Cheap Fertiliser, availability of power, low interest rates, controlled inflation, paying civil servant’s in time, continuity of learning at Cbu & Unza. Jobs for youths who are qualifying every year but there are no jobs. Not cheap propaganda & lies over Dr Banda , noooo. After all the Dr has houses after serving in Zambia and out of the country as a medical doctor. If he is renting then he wishes to rent because he making big monies from his properties.
But why being a difficult tenant? This person has take advantage of his public life to push him to pay. This man knows he is a public figure and should avoid to be found in such situation. He would have borrowed from friends who includes HH or GBM. You mean such men cannot help him? Can’t his party help him? Why troubling a poor person like his landlord? This is a big shame!
Liar!!
Have you paid rent yourself? What are you up to with this story? Is he the only one with rental arrears the whole Zambia?
Come on man that person rub shoulders with the millionaire friend honestly not even a loan sure?
Well that’s why he is busy cause he wants to come and steal
Chansoni sana
4 nine yrs wer ws sh dat story sucks
HH has money. You mean he’s so stingy that he can’t pay for his mandevu boy?
when u gave him the house,did u go to this stupid media to announce??
Petty issues…not news worthy
woman take heart mr banda you threatening with eviction is both your tenant n your incoming vice president, and alongside gbm. hold your patience mum, your reward is almost ripe
Anointed. WHO ANOINTED YOU? THE devils?
But he pays. Does he have arrears? You are insane to say the least.
So what??
This is cheap propaganda by some confused political criminal elements. Nine years sure only to bring up the issue when elections are near. Let Dr Canisius Banda. alone please.
Staying in another person’s house without paying rentals is political? Put your thinking in correct order
…it’s all nonsense, Lazarous! Cheap slander. Defamation. Dirty politics. It is well, my friends!
They is no smoke without fire Mr banda just ask your friend for a loan and get a house so that you settle down.
And that means that you’re Brock that’s why you’re busy making feck promises to people so that you can come and finish what your friend left?
…thank you, Martin. God bless you! You forget I am a professional.
Who does that?? Nine years is long time to evict someone during the period families are built.viva Dr Banda
This is very embarrassing. How cud one bring dis issue to the public as is someone has run away? Cheap politics

It’s not a claim it’s a fact…daahhh
People called Edgar Lungu a drunkard and alt of stories emerged from nowhere.Now today you say why bring up such stories today.This is politics not football.Politics te ya bana iyo
I think this is the type of propaganda that we don’t need, 9 years is a long period of time. Where were you all this long? And to you who are condemning the upnd leadership think before you comment, if CB has no house 🏠 that has got nothing to do with UPND leadership neither the party at large.
His he a medical doctor or a witch doctor. To the look of this issue he is a witch doctor
Bachikulile no nyumba shame
If at all you have been to school in your life, you will not be saying shit about Banda, The stupid landlady or bitch mentions to us he Banda has been staying in the house for fucking 9 years, why wait for nine fucking years to evict a tenant in your fucking licking house? why take it to the media? its so stupid some idiots now are saying shit about Banda and Upnd, i dont see any attachment to that, lets be fucking realistic about these issues and infact some motherfucker talks about HH, really? imwe bafikala, be focused and see whose been real here, is this story fucking true or its fucking propaganda? dont just rush to comment politically before you check for facts.anyway fuck you land lady.#my opinion.
This is a clear indication that,upnd can turnish our image as Country through their inconsistent,inconsequential and imprudent economic policies
Ba Anointed namwe ne soni with bad language.How anointed are you.
Why can’t this Two rich fools help him
Pipo is this man nt working as a Doc apart from politics. I thot hes a doc at uth.

This is propaganda idiots
Ba Choopa we need to know our leaders if they are responsible enough and fit to be leaders
That is very shameful!shame on him and the entire upnd leadership
Is this the news to give the people? Can you report substantial news. Boring media.
This is exposing people who wants to be our leaders. Its good news to Mr Banda’s opponent, bads news to people looking up to his leadership and shame to him if he has self consciosness and morally upright.
