ADDRESSING a United Party for National Development (UPND) Alliance Partners Media Briefing on Sunday 28^th January 2018, People’s Party (PP) President, Mike Mulongoti challenged President Edgar Chagwa Lungu to elaborate on his nationality.

 

Flanked by Alliance for Democracy and Development (ADD) President, Charles Lubasi Milupi, UPND President, Hakainde Hichilema, UPND Deputy Secretary for Administration, Gertrude Imenda Mobilisation Chairperson, Silvia Tembo-Masebo, Lusaka Province Chairperson, Obvious Mwaliteta,  and Political Activist Dante Saunders, a soft spoken Mr. Mulongoti wondered why President Lungu remained mute on accrued wealth and his true nationality.

Formerly, Information and Broadcasting Minister, during the Movement for Multiparty Democracy (MMD), Third Republican President, late Dr. Levy Patrick Mwanawasa regime, Mulongoti prodded those privy to such information to keep him in the know.

“Any Zambian, who has information as to the Presidents village can alert me and shall then rest my case,” Mulongoti pleaded.

ADD’s Milupi accused the Zambian Government of destroying the country through excessive borrowing and reckless spending.

“Citizens cannot enjoy their rights as they attacked for simply belonging to a political party. There is no doubt that UPND won the previous elections and we need to do something about it,” implored Milupi, as UPND Spokesperson, Charles Kakoma  allayed fears regarding Dr. Nevers Sekwila Mumba’s absence.

“The MMD President Dr. Nevers Sekwila Mumba is still a UPND Alliance

Partner, but is not here today as the televangelist turned politician is gracing a Victory Ministries Copperbelt Conference,” said Kakoma.

UPND Lusaka Province Chairperson and former Lusaka Province Minister Obvious Mwaliteta introduced over 30 Patriotic Front (PF) officials who, opted to back Mr. Hichilema.

On his part, UPND President Hakainde Hichilema cried foul over a growing lawlessness and tribal division in Zambia.

“Violence by the PF does not affect UPND, ADD and People’s Party only but everybody in Zambia, including marketeers and street vendors. The PF is using the money stolen from Mukula tree, ZAFFICO is simply a smoke screen, today , the PF is going for National Democratic Congress (NDC) Consultant Dr. Chishimba Kambwili, and Pilato is in exile  in South Africa,” noted Hichilema.

Aside from Lusaka’s Chimbokaila and Kamwala correctional facilities being sold, Hichilema regretted that a Chinese firm, AVIC Construction had acquired the National Research Development Centre (NRDC), a claim which Information and Broadcasting Minister, Mss. Kampamba Mulenga has since dismissed with deserving contempt.

“There is no 2021 …the writing is on the wall … just look at the new appointments of the board at public newspapers-Times of Zambia (ToZ) and Zambia Daily Mail (ZDM), they are busy dividing the country through ethnic selections,” observed Hichilema.
