Movement for Multiparty Democracy (MMD) National Youth Treasurer Lengwe Bwalya has called on all the youths in the country, both new registered voters and the old alike to be make sure that they vote the PF government out of office come next year. Mr Bwalya who spoke from Mulungushi University in Kabwe reiterated that the PF government had proven beyond any reasonable doubt that they were perfect candidates for retirement out of government.

“We can not continue to to be lead by a vision-less, cadre-infested government whose priorities are only to fatten their tummies at the expense of the ordinary Zambian!” said Mr Bwalya. Mr Bwalya further wondered how cabinet can approve extra borrowing for infrastructure development on the Copperbelt from the Chinese Development Bank when it is a well known fact that those funds come with the condition that Chinese companies are engaged to do the construction. Additionally,the jobs that will be offered to Zambians are casual jobs since most, if not all of the skilled jobs will be filled by Chinese Engineers leaving out Zambians.

“This is myopic thinking by the PF government. The suggested constructions on the Copperbelt will not alleviate the sufferings of our people but will just deepen their sorrows because a huge number will remain unemployed. And may I remind President Edgar Lungu and his cabinet that the suffering of our people is not limited to Copperbelt alone. What will he do about all the other provinces which are far less developed like Western Province?”, asked Mr Bwalya.

“That why we need an alternative government come 2016 and there is no better alternative other than the New Hope MMD under the able leadership of Dr Nevers Sekwila Mumba. In him we have a visionary, a former Vice-President who has held the instruments of power before, a seasoned diplomat, a God-fearing man who stands on morality and integrity and a great leader who will inspire the people of Zambia to arise and solve our PF-induced economic and political challenges as we look to a brighter future under MMD.

It was MMD that liberated the shrinking Zambian economy and grew it from $3 billion in 1991 to $25 billion in 2011. The MMD also greatly improved GDP per capita, life expectancy, infant morality rate, education, health, road infrastructure and many other things that were declining under the former United National Independence Party (UNIP) government.

I therefore strongly remind all youths across this great nation that the future right now is bleak under the PF and allowing them to continue will be digging our own graves. The onus is upon us to correct the current mess that PF has created. We need to act now and to act wisely by voting the PF out in 2016.

  1. Lengwe, u can only fool youths who are like yourself? Which undeveloped western province are u talking about? Western province under MMD was pathetic but go there now under PF govt & see how Mongu has been transformed into a town. There are so many projects & infrastructure development development in towns of w/p. What can u point at in 20yrs of MMD rule?? Keep on dreaming with your Nervous Mumba, MMD will never ever rule again!!

  2. You are correct on one point, the MMD did much much better than PF. Even Rupiah Bands’s corrupt administration was better than the two PF governments. Its a shame Zambians were deceived by Dandy Crazy and his music plus empty promises of more money in their pockets and lower taxes, a new constitution in 90 days etc. Still love your music dandy but please don’t help these Poor failures this time around. Even the staunch cadre here must surely realize that their party is a failure.

  3. it is the beault of democracy even pipo like lengwe bwalya can say anything without analysis. he is just shooting in the dark without thinking!
    anyway its waste of time to comment on you.

    • I CAN COMPARE THEM. YES MMD RULED FOR 20 YEARS BUT THEY NEVER CAME IN FULL OF VIOLENCE AND THREATS AND STEALING LIKE THE PF. CHILUBA STOLE QUIETLY BUT NOT PF, ANY CADRE CAN DO OR TAKE WHAT HE OR SHE WANTS. THEY HAVE DESTROYED ZAMBIA IN 4 YEARS WHAT WILL BE LEFT OF OUR COUNTRY IF THEY GET ANOTHER 5 YEARS? ARE YOU PEOPLE BLIND AS TO WHAT IS HAPPENING IN OUR COUNTRY OR JUST IGNORANT UNTIL IT HITS YOU PERSONALLY?

  4. Lengwe Bwalya- Just concentrate on your studies .Stop cheating your self with your New MMD Hope If People Like bowman can leave the MMD – What are you still doing there .
    MMD have nothing to offer apart from defecting to PF or UPND.

  5. MMD is a dead party. FDD even did better than mmd in the jan 2015 election. 2016 is between UPND and Pf, no need to split votes if you want pf out.

  6. one who works hard doesnt fear retirement, looks back with pride, leaves stage while audience stil clappin doesnt wish a zwaa , politicians ar not like that,
