GBM: “my business suffered in order to sustain PF “

Former defence Minister Geoffrey Mwamba has reminded the Patriotic Front not to forget where they are coming from and how his business suffered at the expense of sustaining the then opposition party.

Speaking to Qfm News in a telephone interview, Mr. Mwamba says it is unfortunate that the ruling party has easily forgotten its past.

Responding to reports that government has directed the Food Reserve Agency to immediately cancel his tender for transporting farm inputs using his Arizona Transport, Mr. Mwamba wondered why his family business has to be involved because of his resignation.

He explains the Patriotic Front and President Michael Sata should remember that his family businesses suffered at the expense of sustaining the Patriotic Front while in opposition.

Mr Mwamba adds that God almighty is watching and will fight the battle for him.

Mr. Mwamba says the PF should not drag his family business into politics.

Mr. Mwamba adds that Arizona transport is a company for his children and his wife, the reason why it should not be dragged into his political battles.

Meanwhile Mr. Mwamba has dismissed calls by some party members for him to resign from the ruling party, stating that he has better things to talk about.

When he invested in PF it was all for power but the mistake he made was taking up a cabinet position when he knew he was a better leader in business. Arizona was favored at any FRA depot u would go to and the rest of the poorer transporters wld suffer. Look at Willie Nsanda, hez well looked after mu background. Having too much money and being a follower is not easy it calls for high levels of descipline, would hav Hichilema work well under Mazoka? We shld hav a law that will expose financiers of opposition parties so we know when we see them holding public office, they r harvesting
