The United Party for National Development (UPND) says they will commemorate Zambia’s 50 years Golden Jubilee this Friday, but will not celebrate.
And the opposition party has demanded that the final draft constitution as prepared by the Technical Committee be released before Friday.
Addressing journalists during a media briefing in Lusaka today, UPND President Hakainde Hichilema says former late President Fredrick Chiluba fought so hard for the country’s democracy which he says the PF has destroyed.
Mr.Hichilema says if freedom fighters who have died could come back to life; they would start fighting for the freedom of the country once more because the people of Zambia have allegedly lost their freedom.
Mr. Hichilema states that the application of Public Order Act by the Zambia Police is one such example of how the country’s democracy has been compromised under the PF government.
He recalls how people were beaten up at BIGOCA Church in Matero and wonders whether people should celebrate independence or instead reflect on what has been happening under the PF.
Mr Hichilema adds that the PF should take the blame for the decision by some stakeholders to boycott the jubilee celebrations.
And Mr.Hichilema has urged opposition Members of Parliament to rally behind the private member’s motion raised by Choma Central Member of Parliament Cornelius Mweetwa urging government to lift the wage freeze.
Where has he been?
Absentee tenant?
The man is a joke and would never make it , what nonsense.
Thanks
Ba so called mushota ‘am now convinced mwalishota namano tamwawata muli cipuba fye. You are a devil’s son.
HH exudes wisdom. This is what should happen. Just commemorate but do not celebrate because PF has taken even the little freedom Zambia gained from UNIP .
Why celebrate when Sata will soon be heard jogging in London using the same route used by the late Mwamawasa the great.
Now is the time to reflect and prepare for the worst. Sata might not make it all. The chances folks are extremly slim now. Cancer is a monster extremely difficult to get rid of.
Presidential by elections to be held by the end of February. Just my prognosis based on what is obtaining at state house.
Viva HH and UPND, the only hope and help. Some PF prominent members are busy courting HH and selling information in exchange for a soft landing should be take the presidency.
Who’s this HH, I never head of this cat before I left Zed 1998. It seems like he disgraces men everywhere he goes. If the likes of the late Paul Tembo was here today, HH would’ve been turned into toilet paper.
2016 belongs to HH. Even if you hate the man, if he’s meant to be president of Zambia, it shall come to pass. He is the only one who is presidential material. The rest are use.less including Guy Scott.
Too much wisdom in this man. He is the one in 2016.
yap yap yap yap yap here he goes again…where was he even.
pliz stop misleading HH it is against human right. If you love HH why does his following dwindling? Evidenced by his vice kakhoma losing to a woman. surely can the govt do what HH has said?
(HH) is always on the wrong side of history, the present and future. What a vindictive leader, today he talks about Matero BIGOCA, tomorrow it’s Lusaka West farmers hacked. He has an unforgiving character that is dangerous for the presidency. We can’t allow such a spiteful animal to enter state house.
