was born and brought up in Mpika, Northern Province. He worked as a police officer, railway man and trade unionist before during colonial rule. Sata began actively participating in the politics of Northern Rhodesia in 1963. Following independence, he worked his way up through the rough-and-tumble rank-and-file of the ruling United National Independence Party (UNIP) to the governorship of Lusaka in 1985. As Governor, he made his mark as a man of action with a hands on approach. He cleaned up the streets, patched roadways and built bridges in the city. Afterward he became a Member of Parliament for Kabwata constituency in Lusaka. Though once close with President Kenneth Kaunda, he became disillusioned by Kaunda's dictatorial style and he left the UNIP to join the Movement for Multiparty Democracy (MMD) during the campaign for multi-party politics in 1991.
After Frederick Chiluba defeated Kaunda in 1991, Sata became one of Zambia's most instantly recognisable faces. Under the MMD, he served as minister for local government, labour and, briefly, health where, he boasts, his "reforms brought sanity to the health system".
In 1995, he was appointed as minister without portfolio, the party's national organising secretary during which his political style was described as "increasingly abrasive".
In 2001, President Chiluba nominated Levy Mwanawasa as the MMD's presidential candidate for the 2001 election. In frustration, Sata left the MMD and set up a new party, the Patriotic Front (PF). He contested the 2001 election but did not do well—his party only won one seat in parliament. Sata conceded defeat and continued campaigning.
Sata contested the September 2006 presidential election as a populist championing the causes of the poor in the face of Mwanawasa's economic reform policies. While the slate of candidates contesting the election frequently resorted to personal attacks and insults, Sata's remarks were at times quite equally scathing. At one campaign event in particular, Sata was reported to have ripped apart a cabbage in front of his supporters. The cabbage was a reference to Mwanawasa's speech impediment, which was the result of an injury sustained in a 1992 car crash.[SUP][2][/SUP] He has also accused Mwanawasa of "selling out" Zambia to international interests, and at one event, he referred to Hong Kong as a country and Taiwan as a sovereign state. In response, China, which is interested in Zambia's copper reserves, threatened to cut off relations with Zambia if he was elected.[SUP][3][/SUP][SUP][4][/SUP] Sata's right hand man in the campaign was Dr. Guy Scott, the Patriotic Front secretary general. Scott is a white Zambian politician. He served a number of ministerial positions during the Chiluba government. [SUP][5][/SUP] Sata also received the public backing of Chiluba.[SUP][6][/SUP]
Initial results from the election gave Sata the lead, but further results put Mwanawasa in first place and pushed Sata into third place.[SUP][7][/SUP] Interim results released after votes from 120 of 150 constituencies were counted put Mwanawasa on just over 42% of the vote; Hakainde Hichilema had 28%; and the Michael Sata had slipped to 27%. When opposition supporters heard that Sata had slipped from first to third place, riots erupted in Lusaka.[SUP][8][/SUP] On October 2, the Zambian Electoral Commission announced that Mwanawasa had officially won the election; final results put Sata in second place with about 29% of the vote.[SUP][9][/SUP][SUP][10][/SUP]
Sata was arrested in early December 2006, accused of making a false declaration of his assets when applying to run for president in August, along with other charges. He was questioned by police and released on bail. If convicted, he could have received a prison sentence of least two years.[SUP][11][/SUP] As a convict, he would also be unable to hold public office. Sata said the charges were politically motivated, and in court he pleaded not guilty to them.[SUP][12][/SUP] On December 14, the charges were dropped on the grounds that the declaration of assets was not made under oath.[SUP][13][/SUP]
On March 15, 2007, Sata was deported from Malawi shortly after arrival. Sata said that he was only there to meet with the business community, and alleged that the Zambian government had effected the deportation by falsely claiming that Sata was in Malawi to assist that country's former president, Bakili Muluzi. The Zambian government denied this,[SUP][14][/SUP] while the Malawian government gave no explanation for Sata's deportation. On April 6, Sata's lawyer said that he had initiated a lawsuit against the Malawian government for violating his rights.[SUP][15][/SUP]
After losing his passport in London in late 2007, Sata was issued another; however, on November 10, 2007, Minister of Home Affairs Ronnie Shikapwashya announced that Sata's passport was withdrawn temporarily because he had obtained the new passport without following the necessary procedures and proving that he needed a new passport. Shikapwashya said that an investigation would follow, that Sata had been interrogated, and that he could face arrest.[SUP][16][/SUP]
Sata suffered a heart attack on April 25, 2008 and was evacuated to Milpark Hospital in Johannesburg, South Africa, where he was said to be in stable condition on April 26.[SUP][17][/SUP] He reconciled with President Mwanawasa in May 2008.[SUP][18][/SUP]
On 31 March 2010 he was interviewed by Christopher Hopkins from Oxford University.

Ni darasa zuri kwa siasa za Tanzania na somo kwa Tume yetu ya uchaguzi!

[Abdulhalim]

I also share the same sentiments with Prezidaa elect Sata. I don't believe maendeleo yataletwa na 'mjomba' let alone Mchina! Good luck with him I hope anayo plan ya maendeleo na asigeuke kuwa Mugabe.

Mpinzani ashinda uchaguzi Zambia
Kiongozi wa chama cha Patriotic Front, Micheal Sata ametangazwa kuwa mshindi wa uchaguzu wa urais nchini Zambia

Bw Sata alipata asilimia 43 ya kura zilizopigwa na kumshinda Rais Rupiah Banda wa chama tawala cha MMD ambacho kimekuwa mamlakani kwa muda wa miaka 20.

Tangazo hilo lilitolewa na Jaji Mkuu wa Zambia Ernest Sakala.

Awali watu wawili waliuawa kufuatia ghasia katika maeneo ambayo ni ngome ya upinzani.

Mkuu wa Polisi wa jimbo hilo maafuru kwa uzalishaji Shaba ameliambia shirika la habari la Reuters watu wamejitokeza katika barabara za mji wa Kitwe na Ndola wakivurumisha mawe.

Rais Banda alimshinda Bw Sata kwa kura 35,000 katika uchaguzi wa mwaka 2008, matokeo yaliozusha ghasia kutoka upande wa upinzani katika ngome zao za mijini.

Tangu uchaguzi wa mwaka 2008, watu wengine milioni moja wamejiandikisha kuwa wapiga kura,wengi wao vijana wasio na ajira.

Hongereni wananchi wazambia kwa kuwa wanademokrasia,na sisi watanzania ni lazima tujifunze kuwa watu wa vitendo zaidi badala ya maneno maneno tu ambayo yametufikisha mahali pabaya sana.Wapinzani ndio suluhisho letu.

Yahooooooooooooooo! UKIONA MWENZAKO ANANYOLEWA.......!

Mchina anatafuta metals kwa maviwanda yao na mamitaji wanayo attract kutoka US na nchi nyinginezo. Sidhani kama kuwafukuza ni dawa bali kuingia nao mikataba yenye maslahi kwetu. Wachina wako desperate sana na chuma na metals, na naskia wana-import hadi scrapers metals kutoka nchi jirani.

kati ya mchina na mmarekani yupi bora..

Director naamini kua umefarijika sababu unajaribu kufananisha Zambia na Tanzania upande wa Siasa hasa nafasi za Vyama pinzani.... What you should take note ni kua hicho Chama ambacho kimepinduliwa (MMD) na hicho Chama kipya katika uongozi cha (PF) ndio chama ambacho katika ufananishaji waweza fananisha na CDM (yaani MMD)....

For CCM ya Zambia a.k.a UNIP chini ya Raisi Mstaafu K. Kaunda kilishatolewa kwa kishindo 1991... In other words chama ambacho kilikua kimeshika na kusukwa mizizi kama vile CCM ni UNIP.... Hawa MMD ni wachanga na wao kuondelewa ilikua ni rahisi tokana na disappointments toka Kwa Chiliba (malimbikizi ya mali), Kifo cha Mwanawasa - na ukweli kwamba hakuna changes ambazo ni za maana zimekua evident toka Kaunda atoke madarakani..... Hivo basi hawa MMD wapo hapo kwa miaka 20 ikipitiwa na Maraisi watatu.....

Zambia ni one of the countries ambayo inatupa picha saana nafasi ya Chama kilicho jidhatiti (i.e CCM) nafasi ya vyama pinzani (i.e CDM) na nafasi ya mwananchi.... Hivo as much as Kweli PF wameshinda hio tu ni moja ya processes ya heading to the better but it does not mean better lifes for the majority YET!

Kuna makosa yalifanywa na wazambia,nafikiri kwao Kaunda alikuwa better kuliko MMD,tatizo lililotokea ni kwamba MMD walibadilika ghafla na kuwa wabaya kuliko wazambia walivyotarajia,unakumbuka nilileta post hapa last week inasema "nataka kuijua chadema kwa undani"ile post ilitokana na siasa za zambia,nilitaka niwajue vizuri Chadema ili tusije fanya makosa kama wazambia,na kama chadema inaweza kuja kuwa kama MMD ni bora tubakie na ccm mpaka tupate watu wa uhakika

Bara la africa kwa mara nyingine limeshuhusia kiongozi wa upinzani akishinda uchaguzi, huyu sio mwingine bali ni kiongozi wa upinzani nchini Zambia Michael Sata, akimwangusha Rais Rupiah Banda aliyejitosa katika uchaguzi huo kwa awamu nyingine.

So kama wenzetu wameona umefika wakati wa kubadili upepo na kujaribu kuwapa nafasi wengine ili nao wajaribu kuiongoza nchi, kwanini na
sisi tushindwe? kama ndani ya miaka 50 ya uhuru bado tuna mgao wa umeme, usio isha?????


mi nafikiri umefika wakati sio wanaCCM au wana CDM au CUF au .....(vyama vyote), tukubali kuwa tunahitaji kubadili uongozi wetu, tuone wengine watatupeleka wapi sio kung'ang'ania CCM zaidi ya miaka 50 isiyo na manufaa yoyote

PAMOJA TUNAWEZA TUANZE SASA!!!!!

 

[MKOBA2011]

Sasa watanzania wenzetu wanatoka kwenye maisha ya kimagumashi sisis tunasubiri nini jamanai 2015 kwa kweli itabidi tufanya kweli tunaumia sana ila hatujui

kati ya mchina na mmarekani yupi bora..

[Chakunyuma]

Micheal Sata (PF) ameshinda kwa 43% ikiwa majimbo saba hajahesabiwa matokeo hayo yametangazwa na jaji mkuu wa Zambia. Source BBC. Tanzania tuinge mfano huo kwa maendelea ya nchi yetu.

 

[Alwaz]

Kumbe ni vita ya madhehebu za kikristo na vita ya kikoloni.
Huyu bwana Sata alikuwa anaungwa mkono na wakatoliki lakini anapingana na wachina kwenye sera za kiuchumi.
Kama kawaida Marekani imepata mwanya kupigana na China kwa kumuunga mkono Sata.Kutwa nzima jana US ilikuwa na kazi ya kushauri raisi aliyepita akubali kushindwa
Ni aibu kwa Afrika.Msiba kama huo unaelekea Tanzania.

 

[Felixonfellix]

safi sana
bado tanzania

SATA kashinda uraisi wazee,
