George Kunda in Solwezi today for last campaigns

Share

Vice President George Kunda is expected in Solwezi today for last campaigns to drum up support for the Movement For Multiparty Democracy (MMD) candidate Albert Chifita for the November 19 Solwezi Central Constituency by-election.

The Vice President is tomorrow expected to hold rallies and tour five markets in Solwezi.

The five markets that are expected to be toured by Mr. Kunda are Kyawama, Zambia, Main, Mitec and Messenger markets and he is also expected to hold a big rally at Mushitala School grounds in the afternoon.

Mr. Kunda is expected to hold two more last rallies on Wednesday at Kayebela and Kyawama School grounds before voting starts.

The Solwezi central constituency seat fell vacant after the death of Local Government and Housing Minister Ben Tetamashimaba.

Meanwhile, MMD National Coordinator for Youths and Students Tobias Kafumukache has called upon youths to desist from criminal activities during political rallies.

Mr Kafumukache said the MMD is a peaceful party and most fights are amplified by the opposition who are always causing havoc at political rallies sighting the recent fights in Solwezi.

He also castigated the post newspaper for irresponsible journalism saying they are causing strife among people.

Mr. Kafumukache said since 1996 the post has been attacking the MMD through their editorial comments and negative reporting unfairly.

He observed that the opposition party members have drugged the whole Copperbelt into Solwezi for the purpose of fighting the innocent ones.

Mr. Kafumukache said this country needs development and people should drive their energy into communities.

He said the opposition should stop violent attacks adding that negative reports will not take the country any where.

Mr. Kafumukache noted with sadness that the headlines in the post are not pleasant but well calculated in an effort to proke the situation.

  1. ok i guess we will just fold our arms and see what happens in solwezi.Hope we will give the ruling party a good run for their george kundas and money bandas.Lets go the pact

  2. GRZ must invetigate Kalulushi Municipal Council on plot allocations. Am told corruption is rife so much that Rich people are building in prohibited areas

  3. Mr Kunda is doing a very nice job, the rulling party has to win this time around.The opposition is fading bit by bit and no direction.

  4. Touring markets Ba Kunda, mwakopa strategy ya ba UPND/PF pact! Anywhere ba Kunda you can go back to Solwezi for kids rallies, i guess some children missed your rallies. Viva UPND/ PF!

  5. Mr so called Hon minister of justice and learned state counsil,Desperate times call for desperate measures ha.Can see you r getting the heat from the Pact. Why should markets only be visited when there is an election??????Viva UPND/PF pact. 2011 were r you? lol.

  6. Viva the pact Kunda now is copying PF/UPND campaigning even in the wards a thing they never used to do mwapya mulilo waisa come 2011 we are crossing the river just jump on the boart

  7. Ka Teta nako ngakalikosakofye mwe. This is more money we are wasting. Ka Kunda imiku ibili ku Solwezi. Tax payers money gone bane. Yes your tax you people who pay to this sorry government. Atleast I don`t get to vote ever 6 months lol!

  8. …..and he is also expected to hold a “big” rally at Mushitala School grounds in the afternoon. How can you claim big even before the event takes place. Trash ba VP batu.

  9. Blimey it`s my tax as well! Next time don`t vote for people who are sick like ka Teta was. Why don`t we introduce medicals for aspiring candidates? If one is found to have a dodgy CD4 count, they drop out. lol!

  10. #13 critical thinking. But many MPs who are supposed to make such laws have questionable medical records, will they support such a move?

  11. #14. Chicago. Look at the number of bye-elections we have had recently, other than people with “small” egos like Chishimba, they have all been because people have died. Seriously speaking, it`s something we should really look at. You are right I doubt those people would support it. Reason we are where we are.

  12. MMD are feeling the heat!RB has given up all hopes of remaining at P1 in 2011…no wonder he is now holidaying all over the world.mwandi mudala nikudyelapo che ,fly the challenger until it becomes a skolokolo!

  13. Viva pact we are here en there 4 u guys ! dont disappoint us . Infact RB and GK are feeling the boot ! we are kicking them out whether they like it or not come 2011. out out out out bustards.

  14. Ba V.P tapali impact mupangile kuno ku Solwezi, naku ‘big’ rally kwenu kwalabafye bakabudo.
    The pipo of Solwezi bali mubwato, zambia forward! As am writing, a huge convoy yaba Pact is passing panse, the town has come to a halt!

  15. Hallo guys, i have been following and reading your comments on the fights going on in the country.

    allow me to define two terms i came a cross in following the fight.

    1. GOE=go over expenditure or Government of Expenses,
    to define the above,what is it that we are going to see the government do for its pipo?all i am seeing is traveling up and down and much of verbal diarrhea because of eating too much in every place they go. Kunda was in Solwezi last week in a chopa,today he is there in a chopa,can’t he do something concrete for the pipo of zed to appreciate rather than talking ,and talking about HH AND SATA.

    His friend in out of the country.it is a clear testimony that in zed we just rule ourselves we have no leader at all.

  16. VJ has landed in Solwezi, its funny hw one man’s arrival can create so much confusion. Friday morning the headlines will read MMD rigged the elections.

  17. Does it mean ba George has no work pending inteh office for hime to be travelling like his boss. It’a like political have taken the main issue in these guys. Fuel shartage hasn’t been solved, miners want pay rise, poverty and unemployment is to high. It is easy for these thieves to go round make more promises to the inocent zambian people while they know beyond any shadow of doubt that they can not even fulfill one. The other guy is always in a plain, going around teh world. Is that part of the MMD manufesto. The only time we see him at the airport is when he misses his wife. These people do not care about the ordinary zambian needs except their pokets and their bellies… Kunda has never stood for any political position and won except being hand picked.

  18. kunda is busy trying to prove himsel to his boss. By the way he almost lost his job to Sakwiba, its time to prove what he is made of to Mr Bwezani Money

  19. Having gone around the townships and spoken to some voters from the rural, the Post edition for friday will definatly read” MMD SCOOPS SOLWEZI SEAT” The word going round is that our man is campaigning for Sata. They would rather vote for RB.
