Am not inciting striking workers-HH

Share

UPND President, Hakainde Hichilema, has denied allegations that he is inciting striking workers in the country to continue with their work stoppage.

Mr. Hichilema says all he has done is to push government to engage unions in serious discussions.

He said no leader can encourage workers to go on strike.

On Tuesday, Chief government spokesperson, Ronnie Shikwapsha, warned opposition political party leaders of possible treason charges if they incite employees to stay away from work.

Lieutenant General Shikapwasha alleged that Mr. Hichilema is one of the leaders encouraging workers to continue with their strike.

He said the UPND leader risk being prosecuted for his actions.

Health workers country wide are on strike to press for better conditions of service.

Unions representing the workers have agreed to the 15 percent pay rise offered by government.

However, the workers have rejected the offer.

  1. Bauze HH! They know the pact is comming in full force. Ain’t nothing gonna stop us…come 2011 we will retake our country.

  2. To be honest even if he did I would say he is not doing any wrong. It`s up to the workers to either do what he is saying or not. HH incite them even more.

  3. HH dont worry these guys have gone to far.we need change it is time for MMD to go these guys have eaten enough. They know that the15% is penuts.

  4. All these are share waste of time guys HH and Sata are not going anywhere the next president will be Brig. Gen. Miyanda

  5. Great stuff president HH on your “Mr. Hichilema says all he has done is to push government to engage unions in serious discussions. He said no leader can encourage workers to go on strike.“.

    In the mean time, please prepare a speech to be possible aired on MUVITV about how you made your money. This is a good campaign message for 2011 elections and you must convince everyone strating from now how you made your billions. This ie because caharacters especially on the CB Province are still skeptical about how you became rich following the LCM privatisation where the company your led as Receiver of the LCM did a good receivership job.

    All the best and extend that campaign message to radio stations too. Let not Obama do things alone.

  6. #5 DR BILL You are not God to say its the share waste of time. To everything there is a beginning. Do not despise them, let them try out what they want and you know very well that these two parties have members and it was the members who said if they come together they can manage to remove the ruling party. I do not want to despise anybody as to who will become the next president. With such mentality MMD will cuntinue ruling and our nation’s economy will keep on deteriorating.

    • You have spoken well dear. Can somebody convince HH and SATA to be together and dislodge this Movement for Moments of Disasters.

  7. HH keep your JANZA MBELE intact and strong and keep on PUDDLING the BWATO. Work clossely with CAPTAIN SATA. PANTU UNOMUKU KWABU AYISHA. CAPTAIN SATA come out strong and continue giving direction to the MUKOLO PANTU TATULEFWAYA UKUBUNDA.

  8. 12 Mwanamuchende greetings. Hena mwakaauluba mulaka? Mweeledde kulemba nanza ku-mbele. Mubwato, amupone chibotu oomo.

  9. Ya MMD is now panicking by accusing HH of inciting the striking civil servants. Mind you a hungry man is an angry man. There is no point on shifting the blame to HH and other opposition leaders. The GRZ with the likes off Ronnie should find a long lasting solution to civil servants plight. GRZ should avoid fire fighting tactics, they should hammer the problem right from source. Some of these problems a are germination from the meeting between RB & Labour Leaders. What did they dicuss? Its has not taken long the nation is facing wild strikes by workers. There is something wrong. Workers are up in arms against their leaders’ signing the collective agreements. These are issues which Ronnie etc should be addressing otherwise the PF-UNPD pact is there not cause strikes but come 2011AMAGEDON…

  10. On “Ya MMD is now panicking by accusing HH of inciting the striking civil servants. Mind you a hungry man is an angry man. There is no point on shifting the blame to HH and other opposition leaders.” This is only true.

    It is not easy for anyone to realise the president HH is leading the PF-UPND PACT nicely and this is why focus is shifting from non-issue PF self-appointed leader Undereducate Sata MC to the man of the 21st Century politics in Zambia HH.

    MMD must have known by now that the PACT is all about sponsoring president HH as a presidential candidate in the upcoming 2011 elections and this is why they are paniicking. Unfortunately for them, the PACT is making rapid progress and only their possible good performance will save them in 2011 elections.
