The Movement for Muti-party Democracy (MMD) in Petauke District in the Eastern province has refuted claims by the opposition PF cadres that MMD marketers in Petauke have defected to the opposition.
MMD Provincial Women’s Chairperson Martha Mulenga told ZANIS in an interview that the claims by the opposition cadres were unfounded because the MMD was still intact and that no member had defected to any party.
Mrs. Mulenga said the MMD in the area had already done its home work and was ready for any thing at any time adding that no member could defect to the opposition with what was obtaining on the ground in the area.
She said there was no way that area Member of Parliament Dora Siliya could encourage cadres to defect to the opposition PF.
On Monday the MMD marketeers had a meeting with the area Member of Parliament Dora Siliya who later gave them money to buy some chitenge materials as a group and the marketers opted to buy the Kuomboka design material for their uniform.
When PF cadres saw the Nalikwanda boat on the chitenge material that the marketers had bought they started chanting the pabwato slogan and started telling people that Dora Siliya had distribute PF chitenge to the marketers.

Haiti earthquake: Thousands feared dead.Very sad.
Now Nalikwanda is Pabwato eh! Well, all Easterners can vote for their Kansundila, we do not care because winning elections is about numbers and Eastern Province is just one out of nine provinces in Zambia and for all I know, Kakulu Munshila is losing in the other eight. Maybe they want to make him the Litunga of Kumawa fimo fimo since they are already buying Nalikwanda regallia to dress him up.
Generally easteners are good and wise people. They championed our national unity through one Zambia one Nation. It is my trust that they will not allow the country they built to be distroyed by one spoiled egg hailing from eastern. I know they will vote wisely by removing RB becouse he does not represent their intellect. They will accept him as a tribes men and reject him as a person to hold the office of presidency. They will raise over and above voting on tribal lines. They will vote for PACT becouse it will champion agricalture-an activity that Eastern province can do well with good leadership in place. I know the chiefes in this province have regreeted the tribal pronoucements to get rid of Levy’s loyalists. That has no room in our country.God bless easterne Provice and God…
