Share

Northwestern Province Local government officer McLeaud Nyirenda has called for discipline and integrity from all stakeholders to participate in the forth-coming Solwezi central constituency by-elections.

Mr Nyirenda said for the Solwezi central constituency by-election to be free and fair, interested stakeholders will have maximise discipline, transparency, impartiality and integrity.

He said this when he officially opened a briefing programme for stakeholders, District Electoral, Returning and Assistant returning officers for the vacant Solwezi central parliamentary seat following the recent in timely death of late local Government minister Ben Tetamashimba.

Mr Nyirenda said the election should show a direct result of well disciplined officials to up hold democracy.

He therefore called on Non-Governmental Organisations (NGOs) to be vigilant and sensitize the people on the need and importance of voting as it is their human right to do so.

Mr Nyirenda also commended the ECZ for the programme aimed at acquainting stakeholders with their operation and thanked all stakeholders for finding time to take part in the programme saying this shows that people attach great importance to the voting process.

  1. MMD kuya bebeleeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee, come 2011 tizakabweza ba BWAZANI ku muzi!!!

  2. This time around it’s all about the pact!!! Time for Make Money and Dissapear(MMD) is long gone. I’m out of Solwezi at the moment but I’ll be there before 19 November, to make sure that I cast my vote and show that arrogant CHAP, what is on the ground. From there we will look forward to seeing Mpombo fired and ask him to defend his seat under the Pact, so that by 2011 the so called MMD, shall be having a very small fraction in Pariament an idication that will make them if they are resoanable enough not to go for Elections but retire voluntarily.
