PATRIOTIC Front (PF) Nkoloma Ward aspiring councillor Tasila Lungu yesterday filed in her nomination at Dili Primary School in Lusaka’s Chawama Constituency.

Ms Lungu, who was flanked by scores of party members, said she was motivated to join politics as a way of contributing to uplifting the living standards of the people, particularly the underprivileged in various communities.

Ms Lungu, who is President Edgar Lungu’s daughter, said joining politics was the biggest part of her life because it would help her to be fully part of the community.

She said in an interview yesterday shortly after filing in her nomination that her duty was to continue from where her predecessor left.

“I am aware that most of the roads in the constituency are done, so I just want the people to know that I am here for them and to work with them,” Ms Lungu said.

She said it was her desire to be part of the community and learn of their challenges because Chawama Constituency was dearer to her father who was area member of Parliament (MP) before being elected as Head of State.

Ms Lungu encouraged her fellow women to take part in the elections, saying it was a good platform for them to bring about more development.

She pledged to deliver more development and help rid the ward of garbage while closely working with the local people to address more of their challenges.

Scores of PF supporters who accompanied Ms Lungu said Ms Lungu would contribute more to the development of the ward in line with the PF Government’s development agenda.

  1. Iyee kwena Zambia has changed. Not too long ago women wearing trousers and lipstick were b r a n d e d as p r o s i t u t e s. I guess now Zambian men have learned to s u c k it up and accept the fact that women are people too.
    Long Live African Women!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    • So grade 7 failure Mulenga Sata

      Envy will kill you for sure

  2. If i were her i would invest in education!!! Utilize the fathers connections and land myselft a long scholarship abroad.. Noti ifi ifyabupuba!!!

  3. GOOD JOB TASILA IM SURE YOUR INTENTIONS ARE NOBLE AND MAY GOD GUIDE YOU SHOOULD YOU IMAGE VICTORIOUS. THIS IS WHAT INFLUENCE SHOULD BE USED FOR. SERVICE OF THOSE LESS PRIVALAGED. NOT THAT JIVING YOU MADE HEADLINES FOR THE OTHER DAY. CHAWAMA WOMEN NEED BRTTER MATERNITY SERVICES. LAW ENFORCEMENT ESPECIALLY GENDER BASED VIOLENCE NEEDS MORE RESOURCES. YOUR PLATE IS FULL ALL WE CAN SAY IS DO YOU BEST AND GOOD LUCK. I HAVE NO KIND WORDS FOR PF AS YOU CAN SEE I HAVE TRIED TO SEPARATE YOU FROM PF. FOR ONCE I ASSOCIATE YOU WITH PF I AM LEFT WITH NO OPTION BUT TO HOPE YOU LOSE! SO WITH THE HOPE THAT YOU ARE YOUR OWN PERSON I WISH YOU LUCK.

  4. Ka Tasila get a scholarship now and further your education. Zambian politics are like vapor.. ukadabwa

  5. Comment:
    phiri and simbyakula did that deliberatery they knew they cant win in those consituences .i ve feel sorry ngosa but for john good riddance.

  6. She’s better off than HH who is about to retire from politics without tasting a ward councillor postion.

  7. She could have tried something else. She comes out smart to me but this mentality of like father like son ( or is it daughter in this case) must end. People should be their own self rather live in the shadow of their parents.

    • walasa chester UPND, now to be genuine things must not be “like father like the ugly kid”.. see, Stella Sata

  8. Having sex with that girl would make you feeling like you are with Lungu himself a girl should not look like gmher father no.

  9. Us in PF do not just nominate people to various positions but consider each and everyone’s standing in society and what their contributions have been in the past. we also know that each position only requires one candidate. We know that who ever is selected and then elected, shall represent the PF and its line of thinking. Let all those that know “gratitude” rise early on the morning of August 11 and Go To Vote For PF and ECL.
    Let the fights in UPND continue beyond the presidential nomination day. We new from the onset when the runaway fellows went to endorse UPND that they were also endorsing confusion.

  10. # Mushota How do you expect her to be beautiful when her father Is ugly like a lizard and her mum with big nostrils kwati bwendo bwakwa ngoshe.

  11. It is a sign of superiority to confer kindness than to receive. Tasila I urge you to continue with your kind ways of helping the needy so that the critics realize that you are doing it from the bottom of your heart. When you are too busy, ask those near you to do it for you and GOD shall continue also to shower you with blessings.

  12. Beauty is in the eyes of the beholder. You are what you you are because God made you in his emerge. What ever shape you have, whether with a tiny head , a bigger head, six fingers on a hand, and indeed many other, YOU ARE made in His emerge. WHAT MOST PEOPLE DO NOT KNOW IS THAT beauty manifests from the heart to the outside. Its what you do that determines whether you are beautiful or not.

  13. Look at this Ka leprosy patient! She says”I am aware that most of the roads in the constituency are done, so I just want the people to know that I am here for them and to work with them,”.Who told you that Roads are the only development?and besides Councillors are not elected to build roads only.So mwebantu,judge for yourselves-what kind of mindset is this.How you think like that,especially if you want people to vote for you,Really?So according to her if roads are done,then there is no else to achieve in a community.Akula waya wayafye all over the place whilst getting paid.But zoona eeh.This is exactly another ” i have no plan of myself”but to continue building roads,and roads,and roads,while chawama is dying of hunger!

  14. leave Tasila alone. Don’t you know that she is wonderfully and fearfully made in the image of God? Just talk about something else and not beauty or shape. Are you the beholder?

  15. Y are kachemas worried about beauty ? Concertrate about the up coming funeral after 11August some one political career is ending make my word

  16. Iwe chi Ulubunda; Does beauty finnish other people’s hunger?Atase! Thats why men take advantage of you always.Because you are always irrelevant.Tasila is standing as ward councillor,and thats the main topic here,not beauty or ugly.We are saying she is by far incompetent,you can see from the way she is talking already with fallen down leaps.If she was beautiful in any case,she wud use her beauty for herself and not to solve the Zambia Economy.We somebody that will mend the Zambian economy regardless of their party,beauty or ugly-we just dont care.All we want is our Economy back!

  17. Is it the councilor who is charge of roads in PF or the RDC State house? So nomwana nao she is without a vision or she’s been wrongly informed?
