PATROTIC Front (PF) deputy secretary-general Mumbi Phiri has warned members against issuing statements without authority from the party leadership.

Mrs Phiri said members wishing to express themselves should use right channels of communication instead of rushing to the media.

She said this when she featured on Zambia National Broadcasting Corporation (ZNBC)’s Sunday Interview programme.

“I will not be intimated by anyone. All the PF members who want to issue statements must seek authority from the top leadership because there is need for co-ordination,” Mrs Phiri said.

She also said the PF is growing stronger and invited people to join the ruling party.

Mrs Phiri said politics is about numbers and that she would personally welcome a PF and MMD merger because the former ruling party is progressive.

“Those old members who feel uncomfortable with new members have no confidence in themselves. We should not be jealous of new-comers but we must support them,” Mrs Phiri said.

She said hardworking PF members will not be intimidated by new-comers.

And Mrs Phiri said she does not agree with those saying President Lungu has abandoned late President Sata’s vision.

“The President has not abandoned Mr Sata’s vision. He is just building on it,” Mrs Phiri said.

She pledged to diligently carry out her assignment as deputy general secretary to the best of her ability and that she would not change her character to suit anyone.

    • The controls as who is to issue authorised PF press statements is more than welcome. We all tired of every Jim and Jill claiming to be friends of the President, as if he is short of friends.

  4. Surely can we say that the PF has the right Deputy SG? This Mumbi character is a wrong person to run a decent party. Her demurring, attitude, language is exactly that of a prostitute on Addis Ababa Road at 21:00hrs. It is a shame to see a woman telling lies through her teeth. Please do not hire women to do such kind of a job. Now you understand why everyone was saying Kabimba was rude……but I thought he was politely rude unlike this Mumbi who is rudely rude!!!!!!

  5. Ha! She got her foot out of her mouth over the herders’ gaffe, now, did she? Like Kaingu whose shoes are shiny from shoving each in his mouth all the time, this lady is not the best to advise on such matters. Just hire yourselves proper PR outfits amambala.
