ZAMBIAN YOUTHS MUST REJECT OLD POLITICIANS IN 2016
As MMD Die Hard Youths, we wish to make a clarion call for young people to distant themselves from old and greedy politicians ahead of 2016 general elections.
We are aware that some old politicians from the days of our independence struggle want to regroup with the viewing to challenging for the presidency in 2016.
We wish to warn these old politicians to stay away from politics as today’s modern day politics are dynamic and scientific and not for the aged.
The old cannot simply compete in the political space. They are devoid of fresh ideas and cannot effectively engage in today’s highly challenging global environment.
We appeal to youths of Zambia to make it a point that His Excellency Michael Sata should be the last Head of State with ties to Zambia’s independence in 1964 to ever rule this country.
As the 2016 general elections approaches, Zambian must prepare to retire all those old politicians from the colonial era.
By clearing the political stage, the much needed space for young politicians will be created and Zambia will be on the road to recovery.
Zambia cannot simply continue being led by people from the Independence era politics. Majority of countries that have made social and economic progress have embraced youthful leadership and Zambia should follow suit.
In the MMD, we have able and proven leadership in Dr Nevers Sekwila Mumba. Dr Mumba has abundant energy and wisdom to transform Zambia into a nation that God destined it to be. It will take young Zambians to marshal adequate support across party lines to get Dr Mumba to State House in 2016 and begin the process of changing Zambia.
We are therefore appealing to all young Zambians not to look back to the old and retired politicians to take Zambia forward. Let us begin to focus on eyes on youthful leadership to take Zambia to its promised land. Let’s focus our eyes on Dr Nevers Sekwila Mumba.

Talking sense for the first time though your choice of Mumba is offside. Viva HH!
I wholeheartedly agree with you comrade. All dinosaurs must be eliminated by 2016 !!
True: Enough with the Old Chacha Movement team. We need people born after 1964. they old fox will never move us forward. moreover nature is taking care of them?? all old and not in status to work.
@Zed Patriot-Your Hakaivotela Heka(HH) does exist as Zambian President in dreams only.
FOR THE FIRST TIME, I agree with Bowman Lusambo. But this must start with Nevers Mumba. He is so old he no longer keeps hair on his head. Only PF still has young and fresh leaders who have not failed before like the way Mumba has. Mumba has failed to run a political party TWICE. If it was in normal life, there was no way Nevers Mumba would be allowed to be a company General Manager like the way he is in MMD – his CV is so terrible. MMD have such low leadership standards they do not deserve to get into power and should not be allowed anywhere near Independence Avenue.
@Mwembeshi-Your shallow analysis on Dr Mumba is pathetic.Leadership is not only measured in terms of running a Party or business.For your own information,Leadership comes from God,who looks at the Heart of man but man looks at the outward man like you do Mwembeshi.Man can be very deceptive like Sata and PF.Zambians were deceived because outwardly,Sata to them was a ‘man of action’.God will give us a Leader after HIS Own Heart.
Zambian youths must first reject you for masquerading as a leader for a non registered or recognised grouping.You are Just a mere lumpen.There is no wing or structure like that in your Political shebang.What you are doing is as bad as Barack Obama(eish Nkandu Luo in my mind) I mean Boko Haram.
can you define what OLD is? Because you are also old the fact that you have young ones around they also call you old. After all tamuli naba Yufi Ndimwe bakululu boss.
This will be more realistic for Zambia. Please let us allow the old dogs to lie down and rest. New blood should now take over the running of our country. Dead woods are a serious liability to our nation. Able-bodied young HH and others are there to run this country. Viva HH. Viva 2016!
i hope he doesnt mean rupiah. but 4 real we need to start afresh. the VJs started in their earlies and performed. we better rest the old biggies
I agree with you Bowman. And that includes YOU. You are not a youth anymore. Leave that die hard ish.. for the kids and move the hake on! The next one should be under 50.
What Zambians need is those Zambians who can make a mark not just talking and stealing, if you can come out clean indeed people will support you , your record will attract voters already your friends are, just look at Kambwili , he is a good example of course there are more, hard workers like matero mp .
The point Bowman has is true but not cheating people that lets go for Nevers….NO …NO ….NO.You are not thinking properly.Nevers will never win plot one.I know Bowman from the days of Mulungushi when it was a college.I dont understand why pipo fail to analyse things properly. HH and Nevers cant win.If you think am lying ask me in 2016 or simply come and cut my head off.There is a lot that the two need to do.
all dinosaurs should be shelved….we need fresh blood..viva
Stop being stoopid. Such imbecilic sweeping statements can only come from people who dont think. No society ever has such simplistic ‘solutions’. I think you all need to read the nursery tale about the village that killed all its elders and then failed to survive when faced with a problem.
If you had a brain tumour and you needed a doctor to unscrew your head to remove the tumour and they ask you to choose a doctor to preform the operation, whom would you choose between a youthful doctor with one year experience or a an elderly doctor with many decades of experience? I am sure you all know the answer, unless you are just politicking as a way of life.
“…to take Zambia forward. Let us begin to focus our eyes on youthful leadership…” There you have it Lusambo is campaigning for UPND!! Let’s GO H.H, Zambia forward. Walasa.
BOWMAN LUSAMBO is most corrupt chap and its proves by the photo u have put ba LT that Kapyongo he is greeting he is the one who gave him money to go to solwezi to campaign for MULENGA SATA and NEVERS MUMBA has not even condenmed him in public for doing so which means he also ate some money FROM MULENGA SATA. Real MMD we know that NEVERS fears RB’S coming BACK and that is why he is sending this CRIMINAL LUSAMBO to speak for him. It will not work NEVERS has failed the MMD that is why the Party is not actractive and people are saying MMD u should bring back RB if u have to survive as party not this failed pastor. For LUSAMBO he does not lose anything even if the Party loses in 2016; infact he is joining new party for GBM very soon. This chap LUSAMBO is useless with no principles
@Mafya-Rupiah was a Care Taker President,but as usual he wanted to proceed futher than 3 yrs.He did his part,he is gone.Dr Mumba fears only God and not man.He can respect a person but not fear him or her.Respect is not Fear.
I agree with u Bowman.But not just any young person-The likes of Cosmo,Kelvin Sampa,Lukuku etc.These are terrible characters without morals and principles.See the behaviour of Cosmo,see how Kelvin Sampa betrayed Rupiah,Lukuku no principles and unreliable.
This is rubbish ranting. Which old people have prevented young people to vote their fellow young politicians? The MDD was formed by a majority of young men and women who were under 50 years. President Chiluba was 47 years old when he became president, Mwanga too was very young, name them, the Mwanawasas etc…. what did these young people do to our beloved country? … They completely destroyed it. Now compare what the old people are doing and what the very young people did? Who are better? Any way, Zambians themselves will decide who to vote for. Its not you Lusambo to tell them. Shame on you.
Peace and Prosperity to Mother Zambia.
Well said! How easily we forget.
Bowlaman will ever be a Youth.Little time cadre.
