President Banda' son threatens to 'sort out' local journalist

James Banda, the infamous son of Zambia’s president Rupiah Banda, Wednesday threatened local journalist Antony Mukwita with unspecified action following an article that appeared on this website on Tuesday.

James and State House staff mentioned in the article think Mukwita is the author of the article which exposed the corruption and heavy drinking  at state house.

The Article was entitled “President Banda’s thieving son and corrupt drunkards who run Zambia’ State House.”

James also insulted Mukwita by calling him an ‘asshole’.

And Mukwita, a well known and respected local journalist has reported the president’ son to Northmead police station but the police did not even record his statement.

Mukwita confirmed that James phoned him midmorning and asked him why he, Antony, was writing bad things about him.
