The Patriotic Front (PF) is confident of winning next week’s tripartite elections.

PF Secretary General Wynter Kabimba says the party’s confidence comes from the overwhelming support which it is receiving from all the nine provinces in the country.

Mr. Kabimba told Journalists at a media briefing in Lusaka on Friday that the PF has grown in all the nine provinces.

He also says the PF will continue to engage the Electoral Commission of Zambia (ECZ) in its administration of the elections in the country.

Mr. Kabimba also disclosed that the PF has trained 27 000 polling agents to monitor the elections countrywide.

And PF Vice president Guy Scott says his party has national character because of its popularity.

And Forum for Democracy and Development (FDD) president Edith Nawakwi says her party will implement the decentralization policy if voted into office in next Tuesday’s elections for faster and efficient development to take place across the country.

Ms. Nawakwi says some districts have lagged behind in terms of development because decisions are made centrally without considering what the needs of the people in the districts are.

She says once in power she will ensure that all areas across the country equally benefit from the national cake.

Ms. Nawakwi says efficient development can only come if the local people are included in the mainstream of the economy.

The FDD leader was speaking on a live phone-in program on Solwezi radio.

  1. What’s the point of the media briefing? There is no need for any more claims now. Wait for people to vote for you. There is only 3 days left in-between. So just shut up.

  2. If it is so, then start acting like a party expected to win. Your president wants to block the inauguration – and by all accounts in your shaky confidence it could be his inauguration that may just be blocked!

  3. Dream on Wynter. You’ve unsuccessfully tried to derail the electoral process using your desperate friends at The Post but to no avail. The only way you morons can unseat MMD is via an opposition pact; otherwise all of you will be crying foul come next week. What’s worse is that this is the last time Chilufya Sata will be standing for the presidency; next week will definitely mark the death of PF! MYSRIP…

  5. All patrotic Zambians should not use the pens which will be provided by the Electoral Commission of Zambia but should go with their own pens.

    • Wat if we mark an X on RB then fold it, won’t the mart disappear and appear on Sata. Think man before your leaders bring the country to war. God forbid….

  6. In any contest every one confident of beating the rival but PF especially Mr. Kabimba should not not be over confident that it will be plain sailing. Whilest its a known fact that the main contest is between RB & King Cobra but lets not forget that HH is a spoiler boy. It will be a close contest and PF has to convincingly beat MMD other wise it will end up a split decision as its called in boxing circles and MMD may end up the winner. Asd for FDD well auntie had better rebranch herself.

  7. So that means that they are sure that no ‘rigging’ will take place then? So all the noise about magical ink, and folding the paper in a certain way is just utter rubbish?

  8. I heard one bemba chap, saying from sata its chipimo, These *****s think they own zambia to dictate who will be next president.I have not heard Ngonis, Lunda,Kaonde,Lozis accuse tongas of tribalism.i knw where this hate camr frm frm PF old madalas.These are the same *****s who tricked tongas during the choma declaration.jst becoz they dont want to be cheated using this chi failed pack, they want to hit back,check yourselves guys.Ask yourselves why are bembas always accusing tongas as tribal.they jst want to inject a guity conscious in minds of tongas.If we are why remind us.Leave us if we are tribalist.we die with that.We will this time not be tricked by crooked chaps.Am actually enjoying a happy marriage with a bemba woman.Their women are lovely, these dont kubeba *****s.

  9. # 18 CALTEX – That is the dullness and stupidity of PF. They think that all Zambians are PF EXCEPT Rupiah Banda alone! I have never come across dull chaps like these. If my daughter was dating a guy and I found out he was PF supporter I would put him through an IQ test before allowing the relationship to continue. I don’t want terrible genes contaminating my future progeny. I’m very very serious!

  10. Just as he did in the late1990s, when his job was to propagandize against UNIP, Mmembe today sharply distorts understanding of the national events. Mmembe’s imperialist press and his pack of celebrity media criminals are camped out in Bwinjimfumu road using reliable political pawns to create ceaseless propaganda, lies and demonization of Zambia’s electoral process. The indicators so far are that Sata & PF are losing the elections next week, and that the verdict will be free and fair.

  11. You are recieving support from all nine provinces so why did you fail to field candidates in the 150 seats? As usual you didnt do your homework. This City Council Lawyer who has never won a case now has increased PF liabilities by 6billion in legal costs and owes 15 million to City of Lusaka football club…tried to cheat a poor woman of her 30 million by charging 35 million to collect the same? Mwachepa sana you should have said married to HH we warned you as did HH but did you listen? No! Even your own father advised you didnt listened ..Your boss will be retired this coming week and you know it..go and file for an injunction without security for costs it wont be granted..you Winter are the cause for the failed PACT and for making MCS lose again..bye bye bwana..

  12. Every time bembas want something from tongas, they praise them.Look at how HH became a darling even in Kasama.Everyone was talking about HH,some MMD officials commented that the pact is infact was forged on tribal lines.Bembas were in the forefront denying any kind of tribalism.The supported HH -Sata.The moment the pack broke, what was the reason of breaking tribalism……come on guys.

  13. This country needs honest and hard working leaders.leaders who have strong faith in the rule of law-CONSTITUTIONISM NOT this mediocrity..
    We don’t want peple who lie even on very very important issues like the CONSTITUTION-Bill of rights and the ANTI-corruption ACT.Govt denied people the bill of rights and AMENDED the anti-corruption ACT to allow them steal from our people and this subsequently is an affront on the constitution. This attitude and without the BILL OF RIGHTS will continue perpetuating poverty, ignorance and disease among our people.we need Change.we need Change, the change of attitude in our leaders. Isn’t it a shame????
    T saers who were enemies of the people by refusing to enact the BILL OF RIGHTS now they want the very people they cheated with the constitution

  14. Kabimba in case you are not aware, your Boss Cycle Mata has already conceded defeat, and has vowed to block the inauguration of RB on Wednesday 21/9, just go the Zambian watchdog, it is there in black and white

  15. I have always said you cant rig an election in a democracy.Yes you cant!PF have comfirmed that by training nearly 30,000 polling agents!If they lose!Well they must accept defeat and congratulate the winners and attend inauguration coz inauguration is part of democracy.parties can be popular but still lose elections,simply because the other party is more popular but in this case we have a third factor..upnd!Let the best party win.The republicans lost in the U.S.A not because they didnt have numbers they just were outnumbered,ask Al Gore,he knows better.GOD BLESS ZAMBIA.popular but still lose elections,simply because the other party is more popular but in this case we have a third factor..upnd!Let the best party win.The republicans lost in the U.S.A not because they didnt have numbers they j

  16. Mwalanda bwino sana. Elyo ngamwalusa ati there was rigging. I believe you will accept defeat even if you have already counted the chicks before the eggs hatch. Ngamwalusa ni don’t kubeba te?

  17. This attitude and without the BILL OF RIGHTS will continue perpetuating poverty, ignorance and disease among our people.we need Change.we need Change, the change of attitude in our leaders. Isn’t it a shame????
    The same Leaders who were enemies of the people by refusing to enact the BILL OF RIGHTS now they want the very people they cheated with the constitution to TRUST THEM-now begging for their VOTE, what nosense!!
    WE NEED CHANGE…CHANGE WE CAN BELIEVE IN ….CHANGE OF ATTITUDE giving our people Dignity and respect!!!! Vote out those leaders who refused us the CONSTITUTION and those who amended the ANTI-CORRUPTION ACT- bloody thieves!! No vote!!

  18. Of course Kabimba is confident that PF will win – just as he was confident that he’ll win all those cases in the courts.

  19. PF has 27000 monitors. This means when pf loses, it will be a genuine loss. How can the mmd rig elections with all those monitors?? No noise after results are announced

  20. MMD KILLED UNIP AND UNIP HAS KILLED MMD SO BALANCED EQUATION.PF WILL KILL BOTH UPND AND MMD.THEN NAREP WILL BE BORN TO COME AND KILL PF.

  21. Kabimba’s foolishness knows no bounds!!  Where did PF “train” the 27,000 “polling agents”?  How much did it cost or they just distributed pangas (machetes) to them and showed them in one minute how to chop somebody down?  How many polling stations are there in the country?  Why does PF need so many “polling agents”?  My suspicion is that either this is a pack of lies or they have set up a secret Party of Fascists militia – a bit like the Nazi Brown Shirts!  Everybody should be on the look out for this militia and the rampage they might cause next week!! THIS IS NO LAUGHING MATTER.

  22. Guys,to be very frank and honest,the battle will be between RB and Sata.HH is a credible leader as compared to Sata but unfortunately,he is not as popular as Sata.My worry is if we are not careful,we can gift Sata the Presidency on a silver plate.RB is seriously challenged by HH in provinces like Western,North Western,Central and Southern provinces.So he is going to grab quite a substantial percentage of votes from RB thereby making RB’s re-election a bit tough.So the best we can do brothers and sisters in the UPND is to vote for MMD so that RB can win convincingly and avoid Sata from not only becoming president but also from brewing trouble.The enemy you know is better than an angel you do not know.

  23. please go with your own pens to vote, dont go and use the pens provided by the ECZ, they contain soluble ink which can fade or be manipulated technologically.please inform other opposition supporter

  24. Ala uyu ena ni powerful SG….ala you are taking them on squarely keep it up,you have really steered up the great party Twatotela.Nomba abawelewele bene tabalelo lesha..ALA BANE PALI CIBILI MWIONAULA I VOTE UKUBIKA PALI UYU WATEMWA UTWALOWA NELYO NINKALAMBA NENSONI TAKWATA……SG ukokwine bale bonfya ba ZAF poseniko amano those chaps have built houses they are not civil servants ni ba mwine ama elections ngayafika..takuli kusumina bane if they say they will count in Lusaka.Every thing will just finish muli chopper.

  25. @52 is this issue about ECZ pens real other way of looking at it is that our votes can be declared spoilt because we did not use their pens. just a thought.

  26. Bradford University of Canada does not exist. KK did not author the letter attributed to him in yesterday’s PF Vuvuzele. Winter Kabimba to pay K6.chakuti billion wasting courts’ time with his ignorance.PF owes City Ya Moto K5 metre. PF Vuvuzela fires workers on flimzy grounds, suspecting them of leaking information to Chanda Chimba 3RD. Kwena this is desperation of its worst. No wonder every one in Pabwato is hullicinating. Bottom line, PF can not be allowed to win elections by any sane person.

  27. Thanks for all the hard work, Wynter. You’re a formidable Secretary General. You, the president, vice-president and other top members of the PF. You have worked very hard for us and we wait for our Victory. MMD thinks they will win because they’ve put so much into the campaign materially but they should know that David with a few pebbles beat the giant Goliath. PF (David) will surely prevail over MMD (Goliath). Victory is certain on 20th September.

  28. Pf lost by 35,000 votes which are readily available in Chongwe,the rest are suplus.C/belt rural,Western votes,North-mbala,mpulungu,luwingu,kaputa etc.
    Pabwatoo

  29. Neo-simutanyi-shame using Dr title-when he is MR work hard and attain than stealing title.Shame on you and your pools.Pf is coming,you will tell us where yo PHd is.It pains because iam a Phd student at UNZa and busy toiling when him is cheating.He will soon be arested for imersonation
    Pabwatoo

  30. FINAL WARNING

    It’s like a battle tryin to find the right words to say at the right time but even then THE NOT SO PATRIOTIC (PF) are so incorrigible that all they can shout is ”Donchi kubeba”instead of telling the electorates their policies.We…THE MMD”FANATICOS” are at it again, we know we have already won this years elections but we insist on dangling the carrot in front of the donkey which is not fair and we dont care.

  31. In 2008 presidential elections RB asked the people of Eastern Province not to vote for HH because he is Tonga. MCS has never issued such a statement urging his suppoters not to vote for a particular president because of their ethinicity background. Again the same RB has thrown out all those who supported Magande for MMD presidency in 2008. Worse still he never appointed a Tonga cabinet minister. The same RB has never apologised to the people of
    southern province for the killing of those innocent lives in Mazabuka.

  32. If PF is getting 55% of the votes, why is SATAn so jittery that he thinks that the MMD has paid out billions of Kwachas (wherever he dreams such money came from) to people risk walking into a polling station with a premarked ballot! First it was the lie about the ballots from UPG being “technologically engineered” to only change all then markings on it in favour of MMD. And now, the K600 pin tom”poor” Zambians!

    Only severe dementia patients will see sense in these utterences. It is good to lose with dignity than to remain bitter all your life for never ever ascending to the highest office in the Land.

    I am sure you miss “under five” now!

  33. Awe,its not wright what the hi court has done by restraining the media 4rm announcing the current results,tiziba they want a chance 2 steal ma votes.MMD Must accept defeat,give sata wat he deserves,kwasila bcoz elections are jst a game,its either win or loose.

  34. I don’t even understand how I ended up here, however I believed this publish was once great. I don’t recognize who you’re however definitely you’re going to a well-known blogger if you happen to aren’t already. Cheers!
