The opposition UPND president Hakainde Hichilema has reaffirmed his commitment to ensuring that government begins to pay farmers on time once he is elected president.
In a statement to Qfm News Mr. Hichilema states that his government will get its priorities right in order to address the issue of delaying payment of farmers that sell produce to government as a means of lifting them out of alleged poverty.
Mr. Hichilema has also reiterated the need to immediately reduce the cost of fuel once his party forms government.
The UPND leader was today scheduled to hold rallies and meetings in Chinsali and later Mpika where his party was to also pay a courtesy call on Chief Chikwanda of the Bisa people.
And Mr. Hichilema says he is humbled to meet Chief Mwata Kazembe of the Lunda people and Chief Mpolokoso of the Bemba people.
Mr. Hichilema, who has been accompanied, in his campaign tours, by Lunte Member of Parliament Felix Mutati, UPND National Chairperson Mutale Nalumango and his entourage, says he greatly appreciates the counsel and blessings that has been given to him by the two traditional leaders.
Promises
2015 vote PF ( Edgar )
I thank you
HH over-promising
HH false hope
HH is a pathetic Liar
2015 vote PF ( Edgar )
I thank you
Still counting ,189 promises so far . tiye tiye
Does this guy wake up with a new promise everyday? He has probably lost track of his other promises by now.
I think LT is now misreporting. HH is talking about restoring the normal things expected of the government to do by the voters.
What HH is on about are not just mare promises but what PF and MMD even UNIP failed to do and yet people voted them to do those things.
Every government should have a plan on how to help the poor.Other wise it should not collect taxes from them like sales tax and VAT if the poor tax payers will not benefit any thing.
HH is pledging to restore proper governance as it should be and as expected by the majority voters. He is talking about things, which do not involve rocket science to implement. No.
All HH ‘s pledges are deliverable if waste and rampant corruption is dealth with seriously.
Only HH is more than prepared to deal with inefficiencies in…
PF minions think that if Sata failed then HH will also fail. What a misconception!
Sata and HH are as distinct as night and day.
HH is educated, experienced and proved that his knowledge can really create wealth to help the poor and get Zambia’s economy performing better.
Where as Sata was just political hooligan with a big mouth and no sense of direction. Sata talked about the obvious things ,but he had very little or no understanding how they would be achieved.
Fact:
HH will definitely succeed where Sata failed.
He is promising without a timeline and the promises are achievable.What is difficult about paying farmers their dues?It is their money.
You have forgotten so soon your90 day promises.Universities,Secondary schools every 2 kms?NO WE WONT FORGET THOSE LIES
Akainde is indeed a desperate man. He is conceited, vain, arrogant, self serving and abortive
He is frantic and desperately making so many promises he cannot even honour in 18 months.
I will not be surprised if next i hear that he has promised all women who can’t have have children that he will be able to make all of them conceive and have children once he is elected president.
Were you counting when your Chimbwi no plan was making all those lies
Constitution in 90 days
More money in you pockets
Low cost of Mealie meal……………………….
We have wage freeze,workers fired,corruption institutionalized,violence the order of the day.
How many of the promises have actually been fulfilled?
Ba fibwi you have less than40 days to fulfill your promises .Stop counting the achievable promises HH is declaring
It is useful to pay farmers on time. It is achievable. It is useful to bring the cost of fuel down. It is also achievable if we eliminate middle men in the procurement process. Don’t you agree with this? These are basic promises!
IT IS EASY TO PROMISE WHEN YOU ARE NOT IN AUTHORITY/OFFICE. BUT I THINK ZAMBIANS ARE NOT STUPID.
Zambians are not listening to this guy Hechi Hechi …too much bu punka…..
Meanwhile Edgar is having the best time of his life….and tomorrow Mandevu will be on fire…..”Ifintu nu Lungu”
2015 vote PF ( Edgar )

The battle for second sport hits up between RB & HH.

you fail to pay your workers on time how are you going to pay farmers
PF is a bunch of incompetent and corrupt people that is why they fail to pay farmers on time.
HH promises that he will lose elections.

The things that HH is intending to do are those that Levy did well. So they are doable. All u require is a man like HH at the helm. Pf is just full of thieves, crooks, swindlers and tribalists. Lungu is just a front for the beasts and vultures. Vote HH 2015 & 2016.
Zambians have already made up their minds…they are not voting for you HH period. You can promise all you want but your promises are landing on deaf ears…..Ulabeja musankwa…..ulisondokede chilumbwana Yebo! !!!!
2015 vote PF ( Edgar )
I thank you
I love this arm chair critic. Busy trying to convince a less than 10,000 users that visit this site. With a average of 3,000 visits per news item, half of which are yours checking the comments. You are doin a stellar job my frend.
cnp, a so called armchair critic is better than the several deluded UPND followers of (HH)-sponsored genocidal, treasonous, tribal media. you chaps have more faith in Facebook polls and blog propaganda. your tribal, radicalized UPND Jihadist infidels cannot match the vibrant, colourful combination of Katondo Boys, Gen, Vision2020, Luapula Premier, Kudos, Peter, the half-brain Mushota, the late Saulosi and other notable protectors of peace and development in Zambia.
edger kachasu lungu ran away from mongu for failing to buy beer and chibuku for would be supporters making it look like he is touring the country . imwe a chakolwa you thought mongu was a play ground for beer men .. ha ha ha, no. you go their with good ideas they are very educated and highly respected not that you try to imite their dressing and think you can win their hearts no. your brother rb degraded them and king cobra wastened the situation i dont think they have forgotten, if they did i have reminded them . for me and my family its hh viva 20 january 2015, please go for supreme oh sorry wait monday…..
So you Edgar lungu supporters, do you think he can say to the farmers when you elect me into power I will pay you on time??? HH can say that because pf has failed. Do you think a farmer will eat roads or Sata’s funeral? It’s not a promise, for govt to get that maize they should in exchange give the farmers money. It is as business should be, otherwise it’s theft.Â
LT why dont you show HH’s rallies properly like you have been for EL.Shame on you.We know you are PF sympathisers but be fair like ZWD when it comes to showing rallies.HH had massive rallies to day in Mwansabombwe and Mporokoso and yet you choose to report front images of the rallies in Chinsali.
Father christmas!!! Just wish he will surely fullfill your wishes
HH is realistic in his pledges and does so in context unlike 90 day promises. HH is competent based on his level of education in complex management and personal discipline that has made him acquire resources to marshal campaign for UPND without external attachments- that makes him an independent person free from cartels, therefore becomes the most original young president of Zambia.
Before they even tackle this huge and controversial debate why don’t they tell us what they are going to change in their disorganised and untrustworthy party first?? He without sin!!! If people really what change they would vote other party’s, PF LIED AND LIED!! Even when our leader was on his deathbed, fool us once shame on you, fool us twice shame on us #votewithyourheadnotfairystales
I can’t vote for a chap who has no experience in government, a man who has weak campaigns bearing no substance. My government will reduce fuel, my government will set its priorities right. Promises believed only by radical Jihadists like UPND cadres.
kudos even just by looking at your skull one can see that you are rotten . as such you cant see anything good . when sata was telling lies of changing things in 90 days time you could believe, where on earth was that going to happen. now someone is telling you achievable promises you cant believe then you are dead. anyway pf is as dead as the founder . you guys are just making noise wait till 21 january when our president hh lands in plot one. that is good ah sure believe it now many have spoken viva hh 2015
