Acting president, Guy Scott, says there will be no short cuts in the election of the PF president during the ongoing general conference in Kabwe.
Dr Scot said he will ensure that democracy prevails at the conference for delegates to elect a
president of their choice who will subsequently be adopted as the ruling party’s candidate for the January 20 election.
He said this when he officially opened the accreditation of delegates to the PF general conference in Kabwe today.
Dr Scott said he will spare no effort to ensure the Republican and party constitutions are followed to the latter during the Conference been held at Mulungushi Rock of Authority.
Dr Scott said the accreditation process was being conducted in the most transparent manner to ensure the results reflect the will of the delegates.
[pullquote]“The less time people spend in insulting me, the better for everyone and the nation as precious time and energy is being wasted on triviality,” Dr Scott said.[/pullquote]
He dispelled assertions by some party members that there was a secret accreditation that was being conducted wondering where such information was coming from as the accreditation that was being conducted by the party Secretariat was being done in full view of the public.
He also stated that the commencement of the conference has delayed by 24 hours in order to remove unregistered delegates that had infiltrated the conference.
Dr Scott said though the delay is costly, it was necessary for democracy to thrive during the conference.
“The less time people spend in insulting me, the better for everyone and the nation as precious time and energy is being wasted on triviality,” Dr Scott said.
Dr Scott is expected to address delegates at the convention after the accreditation process is concluded.
Nine candidates are vying for the top position in the ruling party and these include Mrs Kaseba, Given Lubinda, Miles Sampa, Geoffrey Mwamba, Edgar Lungu, Wilbur Simuusa, Chishimba Kambwili, Robert Sichinga and and Ambassador Selemani Pangula.
It’s happening
2015 vote PF
I thank you
stop issuing statements,,,, can we have progressive report!!
I hope Guy Scot given chance to educate people that they are not voting for Republican president. Or maybe Inonge should try to explain to delegates one more time. Otherwise this in fights with Edgar’s supporters will never end.
Ndobo….
It’s not as easy as it looks when we are observing from our keyboards ..
Just like when playing soccer…people on the terraces
think like…wow how did he miss such an easy open goal…but for guy on the playing field. ..it’s a different story..
So let’s just wait and see how things will unfold in the next few days
2015 vote PF
I thank you
katondo boys is emanuel mwamba. he z trying to vet pf through comunicating via LT. the truth z what ZWD z saying. zambians are stupid they will vote for Edgar Lunga. so viva stupid zambians. viva edgar lunga
I thought your message of long cuts had sunk in by now?
@Katondo boys
whats difficult here?,,,, PF went there to vote for their new leader period, why are they not voting,, all their presidential hopefulls claim to be ready,,, so whats difficult?
Nostradamus
That’s a good observation. ..i think the issue here is that Guy Scott knows Edgar will get the nomination but again. ..Scott wants someone else to be nominated…that’s were the gridlock is ….am sure delegates know that Scott has his own preferred candidate. …
But like I said to Ndobo…let’s wait and see how things work out by either today or tomorrow morning
2015 vote PF
I thank you
Ndobo
It’s like Madam Kaseba is controlling Scott. ….Scott and Kaseba are in good books. ..but Lungu is the favorite at this moment. ..so Scott is trying hard to look neutral but things are not working out…..he knows how democracy works. …it’s only through the ballot. ..
2015 vote PF
I thank you
I am so disappointed with Guy Scott. I really thought he was better than this. Guy Scott you sang about a conference and now that it’s arrived you refuse to show up?And to you mama Kaseba I have lost the last shred of respect I had for you. Busy flying in the presidential chopper with Guy Scott kwati mulewamya. With widow gear. You will not get any sympathy from me. Like someone said, God is bigger than Guy Scott so I pray the conference goes peacefully and all of Scott’s schemes are put to an end once and for all!
What..! Why would anyone vote back corrupt and incompetent elements..? What have they done? PF only deserves to be kicked out. Vote HH and UPND
Kopala girl
You not the only one that’s getting disappointed by Scott. …most of the delegates are now smelling a dead rat….and Kaseba is partially to blame coz she wants to get the nomination through back door…..that won’t work….
2015 vote PF
I thank you
yes vote pf at your peril
in your dreams.., cast yours as you wish, the nation will vomit PF and vote for the future!
Most democratic party, go PF!
May the Almighty God be with each participant at the Conference. May peace reign!
May those who wish ill of this conference be defeated .
Amen.
And may His will be done in the earth as it is heaven … May God guide the smart people of the Zambian Enterprise in every political party so peace could prevail as usual. May the best team win to the glory of He who watches over this great Christian Nation ….
2 Chronicles 7:14 …. if my people, who are called by my name, will humble themselves and pray and seek my face and turn from their wicked ways, then I will hear from heaven, and I will forgive their sin and will heal their land. (NIV)
You’re God who can never lie, your word is true … your promises everlasting and your goodness endures forever, we love you and honor you as we transition through these trying moments. Together we shall emerge victorious in Jesus name we pray, Amen.
One Zambia, One Nation …
Be careful with Scott
The faster Guy Scott is out of the presidential office, the better. There is nothing substantive he has done for the country. Only fought his own people the whole entire time. It’s time we put these ancient fosils of the Rupiah and Guy kind in history books of politics for good. Do not vote Banda on MMD please.
…only fought for his own people? Ndiye backwardness yamene iyi
And the scoundrels are quite. Let peace continue to prevail. We wait for the verdict so that campaigns can start. We are tired of the noise called campaigns by the Under 5 and fimo fimo
I hope all goes well. On a different note, if I had just landed in Zambia from another planet such as Mars and somebody briefed me on the political situation facing the ruling party, I would put up a serious bet that GS is undermining PF (screw.ing actually) in order to benefit HH. Infact, even from Mars, much less here I think HH is a far much better candidate. But just wondering who is pulling GS from behind so that PF supporters are stretched to the limit and snap, thereby being blamed for the obvious…..!!
while you are taking time to choose a lungu, hh is busy cheating and manuplating voters. choose lungu fast and let hh realise that he is no march to pf .
I am dissapointed with Guy, didnt he foresee such things …chineke ooo
I have been away for some days, because I read so much violence and racism remarks from the PF conversion, I wonder why HH can’t help protect Guy Scott. Treating Scott as if he is the one who sent Sata away.
No one is being Racist Nastradamus. You are not patriotic, you are just inferior in the complexities of thinking some one is smarter because they are white. Stop it, we can see through guy Scott and a host of dumb muzungu wanga anikonde types, mostly from the northern part of our country. It saddens me when a man puts a person on a pedestal because they are white, not due to intelligenc or work ethic. Never thought you would be one to eco exibit a weakness like that; true Zambian patriots respect God and study a character and his past workings.
Umusungu wamusonko.
Guy’s vested interests have created a conflict of interest for PF and its Government. The cartel Guy answers to are not interested in a government led by a people person. Africans don’t interfere in European or american elections, so leave pf party cadres to decide without any hindrance.
Cpt Thomas Sankara
That’s a good one…Scott is trying to deny party cares to choose because now it’s getting clear that he is well bent on dictating on who should be nominated. ..and he doesn’t know what to do…
As Zambians. .whether UPND or whatever party you belong to…we all need to speak out and make sure Scott is put in his place….
2015 vote PF
I thank you
Hey, katondo Boys! Nice try. But PF or any of it’s derivatives must not get sympathy from non-PF members. It is a PF problem and so it must remain.
Please keep your p oop to yourself. We don’t want any of it. Alright?
Hehe incompetent fools…how can we trust these people to run the nation when they cant even run a simple ka conference. Ati..delayed by 24hrs.everything is delayed in Zambia nothing is ever on time. Honestly those of you supporting these guys better have a compelling reason to do so. Otherwise this country will continue to be paralysed by in-decision and a general lack of common sense.
what brot Scott to zambia is money. Do not think Scott cares about you. ATANGA, chenda and kaseba save your country or join musa mwenye. Lungu God is preparing for the future. Be strong mr president
Rubbish, Guy Scott is in a difficult situation trying to reason with scoundrels who know next to nothing about democracy and good order. What is happenning in PF is a replica of the behavior that Kaunda applied during the era of one party dictatorship. This is the school that late Sata graduated from and has left behind a mentality which you young bloggers will never comprehend. Under PF you will never experience really democracy. After all this is the first time they have had to elect a president. Sata was never challenged like his mentor Kaunda who seems to influence the likes of Lungu! Guy Scott deserves to be honoured for controlling those ruffians. It is no easy task really to speak the least.
Guy Scott is a man of his words.
Too late though,HH winning 2015 president.
Whoever doesn’t like it , can stop.
Sata knew why he never requested GS to taste leadership. He has no leadership qualities – full stop!! So far GS has nothing to show for during his acting period. At least Edgar Lungu released the Draft Consitution
Scott a man of intellect and honour…… my foot. Where are these white ass licking black asshole coming from. Can you see how much this mulungu is exposing you and your country?
It’s them same youths who propelled PF to victory and today are being labelled ruffians who should be caged for stand firm in what they believe in exact inthe same fashion as in 2011.
This is shameful. A silly white man mucking people about like this!
WHY WOULD THEY WAIT UNTIL THE CONFERENCE TO ACCREDIT?
Scott’s only plan to impose his candidates is to cause confusion and then make false claims. It is clear this is his only game. Explains why he had to suspend and suspend senior MPs to cut the numbers down and impose Kaseba and Gang.
Shocking really at the length they go to.
