The Movement for Multi Party Democracy (MMD) in the Northern Province have rejected calls for a convention.
Provincial Information Secretary Cephas Bwalya says that the party in the province was not interested in having a convention as the party was intact.
Mr. Bwalya said the statement by the party’s Vice President Brian Chituwo that the MMD is a weak and slowly dying due to leadership failures was not true.
He said the opposition party in the area was still going strong contrary to suggestions by Dr. Chituwo.
He said the party is intact and there are no wrangles in the Northern Province as the Provincial Executive Committee is behind the current leadership.
The Movement for Multiparty Democracy has in the recent past been faced party wrangles as members of the party have expressed a vote of no confidence for the current leadership and have called for a convention to elect new leaders in the party.
Okay but don’t just burry your head in the Sand and pretend that everything is well. MMD’s are problems are beyond personalities but the wrongs the party committed over a period of tweenty years.
flash out all impotent leaders..like him Mumba..kekeke
If the convention goes ahead, existing cracks will widen to eventually fragment the party.The reasonable way forward is to put aside differences and do some repairs around current leadership until 2016 elections.MMD can pull together in the interest of the party and country’s democracy.It’s still a formidable force regardless of tabloid insinuations, and on a one to one basis with other parties,it has strength and depth in all areas that matter to run a country.So why ruin it?Answers lie in individual sacrifice for what they believe in, good governance, civil liberties and total eradication of current an possible future dictatorships.My advice to MMD,focus of strengths that each member brings to the table & Stop dwelling on issues that divide the party.Potentially you’re a govt. in…
Actually I see this as a catch-22: Darned if you do, darned if you don’t. The split is almost inevitable at the rate the reports are implying.
I knew that PF police will welcome the move but it were PF cadres there would not be a permit. MMD we know its just a matter of time and they will team up with UPND to fight PF very soon for 2016. Mind you this is just 2014, PF is not yet re-organised fully, and MMD is just waiting to see the day approach then kickout some one. Only if the so called animal driven constitution will not be released then can we see some plots of …
Great resolution.
