Movement for Multiparty Democracy(MMD) has praised its counterpart, United Party for National Development for its decision to forego the Mufumbwe by election by support its candidacy.

Party Deputy National Secretary Chembe Nyangu said the MMD-UPND working plan is working and called for strong consolidation of the two opposition political parties.

Mr. Nyangu told ZANIS in an interview in Lusaka today that the gesture exhibited by the two parties should be embraced by all party members.

He also claimed that MMD candidate Stanford Mulusa is a popular person in Mufumbwe charging that the party’s former MP and now PF candidate Stephen Masumba would be shocked on November 9, after the announcement of the results.

Mr. Chembe further told ZANIS that MMD campaign officials are currently on the ground campaigning for Mr. Mulusa to ensure that the MMD retains the seat.

And the United Party for National Development is confident that the opposition would retain the seat.

UPND Secretary General Winston Chibwe said his party would give solidarity to the MMD candidate in Mufumbwe.

Mr. Chibwe also disclosed that the UPND would participate in all the local Government by election in all the wards.

  1. I love it. This is the only way to PF that we are not happy with it Govnt.Go MMD/UPND Pact

  2. Mr.Nyangu,has very wrong information,how can he say that basing on what,Mufumbwe is very big,Mulusa is not Known at all,he is just another thief,they have enriched themselves on the expense of the Kizela Royal family ,according to some sources they were just sorted out by One of the Royal Family members.The boy like his friend Masumba they have no respect for elders. So he shouldn’t cheat himself,he can’t win.The only difference with Masumba is ,the boy is brought up in Mufumbwe and has sold himself for some time now. So Masumba is winning back his seat but this does not imply that PF is becoming Popular No. Guy Scott should be ashamed to say the people of Mufumbwe should vote for PF in order to bring development,what have they done in N/western since they got in office.Nothing.

  3. hahaha ba Nevers. is that the way you hold the stick? Just look at the pretence. who told you the people of Mufumbwe want to be playing pool?

  5. Former man of “god” simplyfing the prblems of mufumbwe people. Zambian opposition just a comic of visionless pipo.

    • Why do you associate pool me painti, uli fontini we chipuba, don’t you have a pool table in your house? Usanfya imbale?

  6. nga batulangileko balelima nangu balekuula not playing pool mwatusebanya ba president, anyway u a party president not the Republican.

  7. I wish Zambian politicians could emulate the national soccer team,Mweene,Katongo,Sinkala….all working together for the best results and making the whole country happy.Not these selfish politicians.

  8. Nevers is such a selfish man, he has managed to rob HH. HH wake up Nevers is a serpent. no more that artificial friendship. viva HH. Abash pf.
