PF’s reconciliation has no bearing on UPND’s momentum – Mwaanga

Edgar Lungu and Vernon Mwaanga
Edgar Lungu and Vernon Mwaanga

Veteran politician Vernon Mwaanga has observed that despite the ruling party’s reconciliation, the UPND has maintained the same momentum they started with when they launched their campaign.

Dr. Mwaanga says the united party for national development (UPND) president Hakainde Hichilema has maintained his political mileage.

Speaking in a telephone interview, Dr. Mwaanga says political activities have however gone a bit slow to allow Zambians celebrate Christmas day.

Dr. Mwaanga, who is currently in Monze campaigning for Mr. Hichilema, says Mr. Hichilema stands a better chance of winning the forthcoming presidential by-election.

Dr. Mwaanga stresses that the dispute in the ruling PF will go beyond 20th January, 2015 because they have not gone to the bottom of the problem.

Dr. Mwaanga states that those people with differences within PF they have got followers, hence there is need for them to go back to them and change their mindset.

Dr. Mwaanga says he only hope and believe that Zambians will vote wisely and choose the right person to run the affairs of Zambia.

    • What else would do one expect to come from the mouth of this old womaniser. Of course he can only say good things about his fellow Tonga.

      Mr Mwanga will swallow his own words come 20th January 2015.

      VIVA Lungu

    • Why wasting your time talking about PF reconciliation if you know that it has no bearing on UPND? You are talking because you are filling the impact of their reconciliation. By the way, who can even listen to Vernon Mwaanga?

    • Useless PF bloggers, just tell us the truth on why your drunk disgraced lawyer Edgar Lungu failed to address rallies in Northern Province today. Your lies (denial) will soon catch up with you . Edgar Lungu is not presidential material for several reasons……

    • LUANGWA RESIDENTS DECLARE THE PLACE NO GO AREA FOR OPPOSITION
      LUANGWA residents on Friday told acting president Dr Guy Scott that the district is a no go area for the opposition because the Patriotic Front (PF) government has delivered on its promises.
      The residents said when the late president Michael Sata went to campaign, he promised to tar the Luangwa Bridge – Feira road, build a secondary school and a hospital in the area.
      The government has since completed the tarring of the 91 km stretch, the building of Feira secondary school and construction of the district hospital.
      Dr Scott said, “The PF is finding it easy to campaign, we just point at the project that have been completed and those going on as our campaign message.”

    • BREAKING NEWS TO ALL OPPOSITION ESPECIALLY UPND PLEASE READ.
      PF PLANS TO RIG ELECTIONS USING THE FOLLOWING METHODS;

      1.ELECTRONIC TRANSMISSION : THEY HAVE ALREADY PREMARKED BALLOT PAPERS PF SO USE OF THIS IS WANT THEY WANT .REFUSE AT ALL COSTS ZICTA IS PF.
      2.USE OF ZAF HELICOPTERS TO FERRY BALLOT PAPERS TO TALLYING CENTERS ,CHOPPERS STOP IN THE BUSH AND SWAP THEM WITH LUNGU MARKED.
      3.USE OF COUNCIL SECRETARIES AND HEADMASTERS WHO HAVE BEEN TRAINED AND PAID HUGE SUMS OF MONEY AND CADRES AT POLING STATIONS AND AS AGENTS .
      4.
      UPND STRONGHOLDS WANT TO SEND LIMITED BALLOT PAPERS SO THAT LUNCH TIME RUNS OUT
      5.VOTERS REPLACEMENT PF WANT IN TOWNS NOT IN RURAL AREAS AS THEY KNOW FARMERS WONT VOTE.

      PF KNOWS THAT HHHH WILL CARRY THE DAY SO MORE TO COME.
      BE ALERT AND DONT BE…

    • ZWD which Tonga media is cheating civil servants that they will have the salaries reduced and some of them removed from the payroll. ZWD is a network for Tongas, are UPND who are full bantustan Tongas only. They have blocked all those who are not UPND carders. PF, can you clear the speculation as it is all over the social medias?

    • WAIT FOR 2021 MAYBE ZAMBIANS WILL BE READY FOR YOUR BACKWARD TRIBALISM IN THE MEANTIME YOU ARE LOSERS YOU KNOW IT DEEP DOWN YOUR HEARTS WA JATA NGOMBE

    • @ Katondo boys,

      Why are f00ls like you always going tribal?
      Does it mean pf has just released that on merit EL because of lack of vision as he put it himself cant win the coming presidential election?
      For once please spare the Zambians from that tribal nonsense we are no longer interested in such stup1dity! Talk about real issues not that trash!

    I THANK YOU

    • But what is wrong with VJ, why cant this hopeless womaniser and alledged drug pusher just go to his farm and grow cabbages??? This man is an attention seeker simple and straight forward!!!

      ***VIVA EDGAR LUNGU 2015***

    • Mr Katondo, Sir, have you heard that your President EL has rescheduled all today’s rallies due to logistics problems? Eishii, its like Guy Scott’s, no use of govt resources policy is already taking a bite!!

    • Zezemba

      Yes Boss

      Its happening on Monday….thats not an issue….just logistic problems.

      2015 vote PF(Edgar)

      I thank you

    • If the drunk and disgraced lawyer Edgar Lungu and his team can fail to arrange for logistics to get Edgar to the Northern Province, how honestly do they expect to run this country? Immoral shameless lot!!

    • @Zezemba
      Nothing worse than being asked to stand up straight and talk sense in the hot sun while your head is pounding from the previous night’s excesses!
      Worse still the roar of a cheering crowd – but don’t worry, there wasn’t going to be thunderous applause, so you should have braved it Edgar.

      Mrs Lungu ma’am, look after your family. Edgar is all you got at the end of the day. Do what’s best for him and the country – take him away from the lion’s den he’s being forced into.

    • Luangwa people will never allow a party that killed it’s people in 2013 to cheat them over progress. What can Upnd do? Lungu and PF basi ndiye wintifuna. Tanyonyo amaluku. Mbubo Feira.

  2. I have just witnessed another mammoth rally in chipata with UPND. Meanwhile the PF executive in northern are boycotting the campaigns.

    • Ine Wine

      Get the facts straight my dear friend,,,,who is boycotting what??

      So you so concerned of whats happening in PF……..Just who can resist the mighty PF?

      2015 VOTE(EDGAR)

      I THANK YOU

    • @Katondo boy

      What is the USP for Edgar? I can’t put my finger on it.

      My candidate of choice is not only educated, but also accomplished in his private life. If he says I will do this, I will pause to listen.
      If he says, hold there I want to change this, I begin to take notes.

      In short, there is something I can learn from him.
      What about your candidate?

      Let’s take our gloves off. Just you and me.

  3. ED: Vernon, please let go of my hand. You are squeezing it too hard. The camera is on us.

    VJ: Well stop caressing me with your other hand then.

    ED: You’re my hero. Can I continue worshipping you with my eyes?

    VJ: When that photographer moves away I am going to swing the nunchuk I am holding in my free hand. Worship that you little upstart.

    ED: You’re just mad that like a true disciple I have learned how to win without campaigning unlike your buddy, RB.

    VJ: Save the innocent little boy act for the public. You and I both know why grown men cower as you walk past certain areas.

    ED: Spare me the theatrics old man. I have files on you that will show your doctorate should be in chemistry.

    VJ: Cameraman is moving away. Assume drunken master position.

    ED: Burp…

  4. It’s just a political wave , kaunda was voted like a king so was MMD and PF. There is time for everything. And this is time gor another change.

    • YOU ARE RIGHT,,,,AND THAT CHANGE IS EDGAR C LUNGU

      THANKS MR BRYSON FOR LETTING ZAMBIANS KNOW ABOUT THIS CHANGE ….

      2015 vote PF(Edgar)

      I thank you

    • Right now, anyone winning is change. Since he will be new president.. Mr Bryson you are right, change is coming on after Jan 20th. Thank you sir

  5. I told you to wait till at least two weeks before elections. Ladies and gentlemen there will be no more party called PF in the Zambian political future. More will vanish and more will be left alone.
    Let alone the verdict of the case between Matero MP miles and Chawama MP Edgar Lungu.
    I hope no one collapses. Inonge Wina is aware of the impeding defections of some top PF heavy weights. Read what she said to GBM in Kasama. Read in between the lines and analyse. You will see what am talking about. The good thing though is that Edgar Knows they can’t win this election unless through other means. PF are just too divided. The scott influence cannot work anymore(a little too late) unless he decides to careless and allows abuse of state resources. Scott does not believe in the Lungu…

    • @@Ben,,,,Thanks to who that Equalizer has freedom of speech?

      Let me remind you, we are not flying the Union Jack in Zambia. The last time I checked, each one of us Zambians got a total package of human rights on October 24, 1964. You were not even in liquid form then.

      This administration guarantees nothing that the constitution does not dictate already. Get it?

      Why do you want to praise an administration for doing what it must? One blogger said, “That’s it job, it is not a gift to you…” Som like dat!

  6. Vernon Mwaanga is the first foolish old man I have come to know. Imagine at his age boasting of having been a wreckless womaniser. He must be a cmpact of syphillis. And he should utter something now….Give us a break you old fool.

  7. The fact that it struck your mind,it means it is bothering you guys, we shall tell after 20th. VJ is not a factor and can never carry any weight anymore.

    • @@@baby b,,,you just chewed your own words. From one corner of your mouth you say VJ is a non-issue. Yet you go on to talk about him.

      Ask yourself this question: What am I talking about?
      Follow up: Who am I fooling?

  8. We were ONE then, and we are ONE again. The PF train is in full steam, no one will get in the way of Zambians having a better Zambia, a more developed and modern Zambia. We the PF are capable of making a better Zambia for all. I must say it feels good to have all my colleagues in the same boat.
    Hope you all had a wonderful Christmas. I spent time with my lovely children.
    Remember on the 20th January “ifintu ni Lungu”

    2015 vote PF(Edgar)

    I thank you

    • @@You were one then……..you are one again

      What happened in between? Scared to tell yourself the truth Katondo boy?

      Hey Emanuel, what happens to you when ED concedes defeat. You got a job to fall back on? Are you on sabbatical? For how long?

  9. UPND has been winning online polls forever,but trailing badly in actual elections.This trend will continue until hh is removed form the party presidency.

  10. “In Mbala now. EL & PF fever hits Mbala, Mpulungu & Kaputa!
    In our field, I have learnt to listen more and talk less. Others just want your ear only for 30 seconds. You don’t have to run away or avoid anyone. Challenging it is but am learning alot.
    I thank you Lord”.

    2015 VOTE PF (EDGAR)

    I THANK YOU

  11. Lungu is wasting his life trying to be president. He is unqualified even by the low Zambian standards. He is unprofessional, morally bankrupt, a thief, un-employable (no corporate worth their sodium chloride would think about it) because of his long fingers, a gambler and sadly unhealthy. I would like him to come to his senses if he can sober up a few minutes and realise that people (except of course brainless cadres and they don’t represent majority votes) are fed-up with PF and won’t vote for Lungu. PF is a one term govt that will abruptly end on 21st January 2015. Very shameful.

    • @Wantanshi,,,,he was unknown until Scott fired him during mourning period.

      The truth is:

      Edgar Chagwa Lungu is Micheal Chilufya Sata’s nephew

      Edgar Chagwa Lungu’s mother and Mulenga Chilufya’s mother are sisters.

      Now you know why Sata’s widow has never supported ED.

  12. I agree with zamcab. UPND should not hero worship HH because under him the party has not seen any meaningful growth (taima. .taiwa) style.
    To the Dr.what he’s saying is not very correct unless he has been out of the country for some time or maybe because of the territory where he is currently. Let’s wait and see who’s who. …?

  13. Hon. Mwanga Dr. Needs to validate his focus. HH has no capacity to defeat the PF machinery. For someone whouunderstand the makeup of PF will understand the personnel that engineered it’s victory is still intact to late President Sata’s credit. These individuals where deliberately kept as secret weapons away from the public eye and had individual understanding with Sata. It’ll requires UPND to dismantle this setup

    • We know them. They are called District Commissioners or DC in short. We know them. But even them are disillusioned by the conduct in the Panga Family. They want to fly first class.

      They jumped off the lugubrious Lungu train.

      Luxury kwikala patontwele.

    • @derrick factors:

      Are you really normal or you are already in the panic mode. How can you say that “…..the personnel that engineered its (PF) victory is still intact “….etc? May be you dont know what intact means!!
      Do you actually know that Kabimba who was the key PF strategist at that time is not in PF anymore and so are others like Masebo, GBM, Sampa, etc and even Scott is functioning at half rate!! That will have a consequence in the elections – whether you like it or not mune!!
      Ati intact…sivinthu – Ni HH chabe!

  14. To accuse Vernon Johnson Mwaanga of tribalism in favor of Tongas is immoral. In 1964 VJ supported KK instead of Nkumbula, a fellow southerner. In 1991, Mwaanga supported Chiluba. In 2001 he supported MMD under Mwanawasa instead of Mazoka a fellow Tonga. Further, VJ supported Banda instead of Hakainde in the last election which late Sata and PF won.
    Mwaanga is a true democrat, a patriot, seasoned politician and diplomat who never looks at tribe. But because he has supported HH who is seen as the best candidate, suddenly VJ becomes a tribalist because the candidate is Tonga. Come off it man!

  15. Venon Mwaanga mark my words,Edgar Lungu is winning 2015 elections with easy!HH CANT MATCH LATE SATA’S WORKS ACROSS ZAMBIA!PF IS VERY LOVED BY MASS ZAMBIANS!GO PF GO!

    • Point of correction, Don’t say across Zambia but say Muchinga province. That tribalist was only concentrating on developing the area where he came from. This is a fact. The call of nature will stop Edgar Lungu from wining the election. This is a fact! One day he will collapse and wake up in hospital. This is a fact!

  16. But do you know that lungu is likely to withdraw his candidacy on ill health.This will be a big blow to illiterate PF bloggers. You are busy calling HH all sorts of names but you do not realise that God has his own way of answering his true children prayers who are being cheated & lied to day & night by PF government.This reminds me of the children of Israel & their miseries & mistreatment by king Herod who thought that he could still capture them by the river after realising them.Your conclusion is better than mine on this story.Surely-God’will is not ours & God is good in all the times. May Almighty Gracious Father God bless HH till he is inaugurated & rule Zambia in peace & development of all citizenry.

  17. Greetings dear Zambians.

    I have comented this late for i am one of the 6 doctors attending to Edgar Lungu.

    I have been with Edgar since he was declared PF President.
    Yes today he did not manage to campaign as he was still being attended to by us 6 medical doctors.

    Starting from tomorrow Edgar will be campaigning.

    But the truth is that the PF Presidential Candidate has very poor healthy, in short our candidate is very sick its only that he is very strong.

    Edgar has also been advised by PF doctors that should he over strain himself during these campaigns, then he might die even b4 2016.

    Iam not decampaigning him in anyway but i am just updating all PF members on the healthy of our candidate.

    What iam saying is that Edgar Lungu doesnt need to contest, he is very sick.

  18. Zabwino palibe!!. Banaenda Ku wedding pa Christmas!! He forgot about the campaign!! Shame!!! rigging smelt. but we are alert with help of the Almighty God as well as our well meaning intelligent men and women!!

  19. lets pry for edgar lungu his sick even nsanda is sick pf is going through tough time.let evry zambia b it upnd or mmd pry this.we a one people

  20. Equalizer nr. 8 and Mwaanga keep on dreaming. Time of awakening will come and PF will be dancing all the way to State House.

    Ifintu ni Lungu 2015.

    Pabwatoooo !

  21. Dr mwanga is very right. The momentum with UPND is there. But whether it can win votes is another thing. I doubt it. Pipo like mwanga,mutati,lady mwanawasa etc,are just being opportunists. HH will cry.

  22. wat wil hapen if pf wins.the country will b divided .look thy only campn is certain province.kambwili ws even sayn north westner are useless.we need unity.

  23. Mwanga as far as I can remember went into hiding agter PF won 2011. As the all opposition and finished politician like Mwanga have come out speaking diarrhea language as they did 2011. Maureen has come out when she was hiding when King Cobra was alive as she knew the consequence of opening up her mouth will be dealt with simutaneous repaid response. After 2015 HH will left alone and name calling will be there. ED is winning not doubt. Post is anti ED only covering anything anti ED. The post is supporting HH as Maureen was there to ask the post for support. ED must work closely with everyone regardless of recent difference as this is destiny

  24. All, lets remember that most of us find means of feeding ourselves these party leaders does not come to our rescue on the glassroot level. actually some of them have been worse. Regardless of our political affliation we are zambians, one zambia one nation! Whoever who will be chosen will be president of zambians.

  25. Pf very divided & lead by a man without a vision! Pf was buried with the found Sata period! Miles Sampa or GBM would have been better.
