1Zambia: Government Deregisters Former Ruling PartyZambia: Nofoanan'ny Governemanta Ny Antoko Nitondra Teo Aloha
2Zambia's biggest opposition party, the Movement for Multi-Party Democracy (MMD) which was ousted from power by the Patriotic Front (PF) after the September 2011 elections after 20 years in power, was on March 14, 2012, deregistered by authorities for allegedly not paying statutory fees for the period it was in government now amounting to over K 300,000,000 or USD 57,034.22.Ny antoko politika mpanohitra lehibe indrindra ao Zambia, ny Movement for Multi-Party Democracy (MMD) izay nesorin'ny antoko Patriotic Front (PF) tsy ho eo amin'ny fitondrana taorian'ny fifidianana tamin'ny Septambra 2011 rehefa teo amin'ny fitondrana nandritra ny 20 taona, dia nofoanan'ny manampahefana tamin'ny 14 Martsa noho ny filazana fa tsy nahaloa ny vola fandrotsaka voafaritry ny lalàna ho an'ny fe-potoana naha-teo amin'ny governemanta azy izay tafakatra efa ho maherin'ny K300,000,000 na USD57,034.
3Registrar of Societies, Clement Andeleki, a known PF cadre who once appeared in court for allegedly forging a letter in the name of the late President Levy Mwanawasa, first threatened to deregister the former ruling party a week earlier but changed his mind.22. Ny mpitantsoratra ny sosaity, Clement Andeleki, olona ambony fantatra loatra avy ao amin'ny PF, izay fony voalohany niseho fitsarana noho ny fiampangàna azy ho anao taratasy hosoka tamin'ny anaran'ny filoha teo aloha efa nodimandry Levy Mwanawasa, dia nandrahona voalohany indrindra ny hanafoana ny antokon'ny mpitondra teo aloha herinandro iray talohan'izay, saingy niova hevitra avy eo.
4Immediately after the deregistration was announced, the MMD filed an injunction to stop the deregistration of the party which has just over 50 members of parliament, nearly a third of the 158 member legislative assembly.Avy hatrany, taorian'ny nanambaràna ilay fanafoanana, dia nanao fitoriana fanakanana ny avy amin'ny MMD mba hampiatoana ilay fanafoanana ny antokony izay manana mpikambana maherin'ny 50 ao amin'ny parlemanta, efa ho ny ampahatelon'ireo mpikambana 158 ao amin'ity antenimiera mpanao lalàna ity.
5Ironically, President Michael Sata served as MMD national secretary, the party's chief executive officer, between 1995 and 2001 when he left the then ruling party to form PF.Ny mahatsikaiky, ny Filoha Michael Sata dia nitàna ny toeran'ny sekreteram-pirenen'ny MMD, lehibe mpanatanteraky ny antoko, teo anelanelan'ny 1995 sy 2001 rehefa niala tamin'ny antokon'ny mpitondra, mba hanangana ny PF.

8Netizens on various social media networks did not take kindly to the news of MMD's deregistration whose party leader and former republican president Rupiah Banda, coincidentally, stepped down on the day the action was taken.Ireo mpiondana aterineto avy amin'ny media sosialy isan-karazany dia tsy nankatelina loatra ilay vaovao momba ny fanafoanana ny MMD izay ny filoha mpitarika ilay antoko sady filoha repoblikana teo aloha Rupiah Banda, toa fifanandrifian-javatra angaha, dia nametra-pialàna tamin'ny andro nisehoan'ity raharaha ity.
9On the Zambian People's Parliament Facebook group page, one of the questions that was asked was the issue of by-elections that would inevitably follow after the deregistration of the opposition party.Ao amin'ny pejy Facebook, an'ny parlemantam-bahoaka Zambiana, isan'ny fanontaniana iray napetraka ny resaka fifidianana mpisolo toerana izay tsy azo ialàna taorian'ny fanafoanana ny antokon'ny mpanohitra.

14Let me assure zambians that the deregistration of MMD is a failed coup and legally its a non startter hence relax and all is safe MMD will continue participating democratically.Tiako ny hanamafy amin'ny Zambiana fa ny fanafoanana ny MMD dia faminganana tsy tontosa, ary araka ny lalàna dia tsy fanombohan'ny fitoniana mihitsy, ary mandeha tsara ny zavatra rehetra. Hitohy handray anjara amin'ny fomba demaokratika ny MMD.
15On the 90 days (Government thumbs up/down every 90 days) Facebook group Kelvin Kings Mulembe lamented the deterioration of democracy, saying:Anatin'ireo andro 90 (ambony ambany foana ny governemanta isaky ny 90 andro) ny vondrona Facebook Kelvin Kings Mulembe nivalaketraka nahita ny fahasimban'ny demaokrasia, dia niteny hoe :
16It's a “Sad Day” for Zambia and democracy in Africa! whether politically motivated or not, such a move stinks and does not register well in our country's history.“Andro Ratsy” iray ho an'i Zambia sy Demaokraisa aty Afrika io! na misy na tsia ny ambadika politika, masiso ny hetsika toy io ary tsy mamela rakitra tsara ao anatin'ny tantaram-pirenentsika.
17I am afraid, Zambia is quickly losing its position as an example of a promising democracy in Africa.Matahotra aho, haingana be no nanarian'i Zambia ny toerana naha-firenena fakàn-tahaka azy tamin'ny resaka fampivoarana ny demaokrasia aty Afrika.
18This is very disappointing.Tena mandiso fanantenana.
19One foolish man is to blame for all this.Lehilahy adala iray no fototr'izao rehetra izao.
20And, I can't blame a simple Registrar.Ary, tsy izay mpitantsoratra tsotra no ndeha homeko tsiny.
21Nicholas Mutalama, however, blamed the MMD for its predicament:Nicholas Mutalama, na izany aza, dia manakiana ny MMD amin'ny toerana saropady misy azy :
22Where has this society been in the last 20yrs?Taiza io sosaity io tato anatin'ny 20 taona farany?
23Let's call a spade a spade… MMD used is political influence and ignored the fees and the registrar obviously did not want to bite the finger that fed him…okay!Rehefa mainty dia tsory hoe mainty… ny MMD dia nampiasa tsindry ara-politika sy ninia tsy nahalala ny sanda fandoa ary dia mivandravandra be fa tsy hanaikitra ny rantsan-tanan'izay mamahana azy ny mpitantsoratra…ekena!
24Now that the tables have switched round, the same registrars office is doing this to serve it's current master except only this, Pf has influenced this initiative to be the only Political Party standing!Amin'izao fotoana dia nihodina ny latabatra, io biraon'ny fitànana an-tsoratra io ihany no nanao izany mba hanomezana fahafaham-po ny mpifehy azy amin'izao fotoana, afa-tsy ity monja, ny Pf dia nampiasa tsindry tamin'ity raharaha ity mba tsy hisy antoko politika mijoro afa-tsy izy sisa!
25This is a sad day for Zambia and we are going to need more than a miracle to survive…. !?!Tena andro ratsy ho an'i Zambia ity ary dia vao mainka isika mila miandrandra mihoatra noho izay fahagagàna mba hivelomana…. !?!

29If this development is badly handled or mismanaged, the ensuing political events may lead to the dissolution of Parliamen,t in which case Sata will have to seek a fresh mandate to retain his Republican Presidency in Zambia.Raha ratsy fomba fandray sy fitantanana ity fivoaran-draharaha ity, ny hetsika politika mety haterany dia mety hitondra mankany amin'ny fandravàna ny parlemanta ka amin'izay tranga izy Sata dia tsy maintsy mikatsaka fotoam-pitondràna vaovao indray mba hahafahany mitazona ny Fitondrana Repoblikanany ao Zambia.
30The best Legal Constitutional brains are needed to resolve this self-inflicted suicide by the PF govt.Ilaina ireo tena atidoha amin'ny resaka Lalam-panorenana mba hamahàna ity olan'ny famonoan-tena ataon'ny governamanta PF ity.
31The workers murmurs will precipitate loud protests.Ny tsahotsahon'ireo mpiasa dia hiteraka hetsi-panoherana mahery vaika.
32Hence the doctrine of “DONCHI KUBEBA [Don't tell them, a PF pre-election slogan]” may also be applied by other parties to inflict negative results for the PF.Vokatr'izay, ny foto-kevitra “DONCHI KUBEBA [Aza misy miteniteny, fampielezan-kevitra mialoha ny fifidianana nataon'ny PF]” dia mety koa hampiharin'ireo antoko hafa mba hanaovana zavatra tsy mazavazava amin'ny antoko PF.

36What are laws for? MMD made fun of laws they were supposed to have safeguarded.Hatao inona ny lalàna? tsy miraharaha ny lalàna izay tokony ho ry zareo aza no hiaro azy ny MMD
37When I was a pastor in a small rural Zambia, my congregation prepared and remitted annual returns to the Registrar's Office.Fony aho mbola mpiompy madinika tany ambanivohitr'i Zambia, ireo mpiray fikambanana tamiko dia nikarakara sy nanatitra tatitra isan-taona tany amin'ny birao Fitanana an-tsoratra.
38Why should a huge body of people, let alone a ruling political party not be exemplary by adhering to the laws of the country?Nahoana no sampana goavana be eo imason'ny olona toy izany, mba tsy hilazana hoe ny antoko eo amin'ny fitondrana, no tsy hanome ohatra amin'ny fanajàna ny lalàna eto amin'ny firenena?
39They had it coming.Efa tsinjon-dry zalahy ny fiaviany.
40The rule of law must be promoted by all Zambians whose interest is national development, which the rule of law guarantees.Ny Zambiana rehetra no mila manandratra ny fifehezan'ny lalàna, izay ny tena zava-kinendriny dia ny fandrosoan'ny firenena, izay ny fifehezana eo ambanin'ny lalàna no miantoka azy.
41If this is unacceptable to some, why do we even bother to talk about a new Constitution?Raha tsy azo ekena izany ho an'ireo sasantsasany, inona no hampahalaina antsika tsy hiresahana lalàm-panorenana vaovao?
42So that after it is written we can ignore it?Amin'izay rehefa voasoratra ilay izy dia azontsika atao tsinontsinona?

49If they can't even lawfully exist, they don't deserve to exist anyway.Raha tsy afa-mijoro araka ny lalàna ry zareo, dia tsy misy antony mihitsy tokony mbola hisiany.
50On Twitter, Zambians also expressed various views:Ao amin'ny Twitter, ireo Zambiana koa dia naneho fomba fijery maro samihafa:
