The Orange Alliance says it does not need to be in opposition for 18 years to form government because it has what it takes to form government within 8 months.
Orange Alliance Spokesperson Erick Chanda said just like in 1991 Zambians are itching for change and tired of the same politicians hence they are looking to the Orange Alliance as the best option because of the new breed of politicians in it.
Mr Chanda said Zambians have told them that the are the only people who can bring a revolutionary change to the country adding that the Alliance was the biggest political force on the political scene in the country.
“I want to tell you that the Orange Alliance is the biggest political force on the political scene right now. Its coming with full force and if we’re not a political force that people are looking upto one Minister would not have deregistered one of our members the DF, why did they deregister? Because they saw that we coming with full force.
“Orange Alliance will make it on 11 August 2016. One simple reason, you don’t need to be in opposition for 18 years to win an election, not at all if you look at 1991 MMD was in opposition for only months. With the challenges that we are facing Zambians are tired of these same politicians they want change, they have honestly told us that you are the only force, the only change that we need. This is a revolutionary change that we are offering you the Zambian people. It happened in 1990/91 it can happen now, you don’t need to be in opposition for 18years, 30years for you to win an election,” he said.
Mr Chanda further called original members of the PF to join the Orange Alliance as they won’t be neglected.
He said the current membership of PF was being enjoyed by the people they worked hard to remove from office questioning how Dora Siliya could be the one enjoying trips with the President when she was one of the people fighting the PF before Sata died.
He also condemned the closure of the two universities by Minister of higher education Dr Micheal Kaingu.
He said closing the universities was detrimental to the developmental aspirations of the country as universities will have a backlog of students because those who would have completed will still be in the universities.
He said Dr Kaingu was where he was because he attained free Education which he can use to send his children to universities abroad. He called on students to show the PF exist door because they don’t have their plight at heart.
Comment:sorry!!
Orange Alliance, I know you have big dreams. Thats something noble. But form Government this August is rather stretching it. I like Miles and Chipimo. However, these guys are far from being ready to form Government. The only thing you will do this August is splitting votes with PF. Nothing further.
Bemba Alliance. So how do you think u will pull this off
I sorry but this Bemba (THIEVES) alliance won’t go anywhere. UPND is the only opposition party that stands a chance to win. FACT!!!
Comment:noise makers. going nower.wats yo message – so yo target its pf original members.
Are they targeting original members or original Bembas?
…when we talk of political jokers…look no further…he talks of people being ..’tired of same politicians’.. forgetting that one of their own Sampa is in that category….they have literally no point to make apart from agitating fury in the minds of PF member using Dora and other new comers…does this Eric guy understand terms like GDP..??..I DOUBT IT…
Upnd sponsored project to subtract votes from pf.
The Zambian constitution says a presidential candidate must be sponsored by a party. Now under which party is Sampa sponsored because his df or deaf party has been deregistered and an alliance is not a political party.
That’s utopian. Your tribal votes wont take you anywhere. You are just damaging PF in Northern Province mukwai.
Political comedians at their best!
These 3 misguided bembas will not only stay in the opposition for long as they insinuate but instead they will, by and by, eventually disappear from the political limelight. Rome was not built in a day brothers.
Those who want to lead this country should just join PF. We have stopped changing parties We shall only be changing pipo. To those who love HH time to position himself in PF is now. He can stand the best chance in 2021
It’s best for Orange, not to believe their own hype! Orange is about likely to bring about a revolution as they are to change the unfavourable economic conditions to gain on their revolution, …..if you see what I mean.
Olo aWemba anzao sangavotele woman killer and serial adulterer!
I say again: For as long as we elevate tribalism as part of our “analysis” and discourse, we (Zambia) shall forever remain firmly cemented in mediocrity.
HH Techilema – you very shallow. Read the constitution and comments from Kabimba, the amended constitution is silent on this matter and it will have to be interpreted by the constitution court.
