Police officers from Lusaka Central Police this evening( Sunday) stormed MUVI television, in search of controversial Zambian musician Chama Fumba, alias Pilato.
The plain-clothed officers stormed the Nangwenya road based television station at exactly 21:00 hours on information that the musician was featuring on a programme dubbed the” Assignment” in the studios.
The horde of Officers later demanded for a register from Manager-On-Duty, Mabvuto Phiri to verify the entry points and possible whereabouts of Pilato.
They later left in frustration following Mr. Phiri’s refusal to release the register without the presence of the company lawyer and general manager, Costa Mwansa.
The police officers wondered why MUVI TV did not offer a helping hand in alerting of the presence of the musician on their premises.
And Speaking on the Assignment programme from unknown destination, Pilato vehemently denied ever defaming President Edgar Lungu in his hit son, Alungu Anabwela.
The Zambian musician justified that the song was meant to send a message to the Zambians accusing some people of being the ones who are defaming the President for misinterpreting his song.
When asked if he has achieved anything after releasing the song, he said he hasn’t achieved anything at all and is thinking of doing a music video for the song.
