MMD in Mazabuka defy Katele’s directive not to conduct elections

The MMD in Mazabuka has ignored directives by party National Secretary, Katele Kalumba not to conduct any party elections until his office issues a circular to do so.

In Chikankata constituency party officials have already started the process of ushering in new office bearers while in Mazabuka Central, ward and branch officials were being mobilised to conduct free elections.

Party administrator for Mazabuka and Monze districts, Clement Matente disclosed this to ZANIS in Mazabuka today.

Mr. Matente explained that MMD deputy national secretary, Jeff Kaande has issued fresh directives to conduct the elections in the two districts within 21 days.

He said Mr. Kaande maintained that the directives he issued to dissolve the district and constituency executives in the two districts when he visited Mazabuka still stand despite his boss saying no district or constituency executive had been dissolved.

Mr. Matente who is also Southern Province Treasurer said he will ensure all the districts abide by the instructions from the deputy national secretary.

He said the party is dead in Mazabuka and Monze because the dissolved party executive committee officials did not have the interest of the party at heart.

Mr. Matente said ushering new blood would help rebuild the support the party has lost in the two districts.

  1. Looks like Katele is forcing himself in MMD these days and they may hound him out at the convention.

  2. # 1 Mwaiche Mukandeka is that your real photo? You look jazzy. Ninkutemwa mwaiche how do I get in touch? Back to relevance, I think Katele is lanning something deadly against MMD.

  3. Iwe chi Ponyax, is that how easily you can get duped? The photo you’re seeing is not of Mukandeke. Mukandeke is actually far from that stunning beauty in the photo that has confused you. Be careful! Ok, back to Katele; the guy is doing his job but it appears MMD has serious internal cracks and is imploding. These are seemingly clear indicators of a party headed for doom!

  4. I smell some form of jerrymandering here. The convention is around the corner and an executive committee is hounded out so that fresh blood comes in? Is this a way of appointing delegates to achieve a certain end?
