President Lungu said the police will deal with those who think they can take the law into their own hands because it is equal to the task, and urged the youths not to avenge when provoked.
“You are all aware of the provocation we are facing as a party, please don’t retaliate, let [Home Affairs Minister] Mr Kampyongo and his men and women in uniform act,” he said.
The President said this during a ‘Meet the President’ Gala dinner at Government Complex on Saturday night.
“You should not fall prey to any political provocation because you have a critical role in promoting unity, love and peace. Youths are important in growing the party, and must continue to be relevant to all Zambians,” he said.
President Lungu said the PF prides itself as a party with values and principles and a national development agenda befitting all citizens under the `One Zambia, One Nation’ motto.
He said PF youths should not fall victim to any political provocation because they have a critical role in taking the lead in promoting unity, love and peace.
And Patriotic Front secretary general Davies Mwila has called on all PF youths to remain united and focus their energies on strengthening the party.
Mr Mwila said the party can only remain attractive if all members are dedicated to hard work, honesty, transparency and discipline.
And PF youth chairperson Stephen Kampyongo warned that the ruling party will not condone youths who are not loyal to the party.
Mr Kampyongo, who is also Minister of Home Affairs, said the party will discipline youths who are scandalising senior party members through the media.
He said youths must be loyal and wait to serve the party with integrity and transparency.
Lungu never ceases to amaze me. He leaves his chopper and follows HH via road then arrests him on charges that do make sense. When you are going to start leading by a good example. Please release the innocent man
Charges that not make sense and are bad at law was what I meant to say
That is last year picture of Lungu you are trying your best to change his saddest image.
Mr bad at law at it again. Miyanda told you not to sign the constitution with your eyes closed.
Poorly articulated presidential message as actions speak volumes! The president is not addressing the rot in his party where cleansing should begin then lead by example! Between the PF and the opposition who is instigating violence and who is retaliating?
Always look to the opposite of whatever Lungu says. This is a veiled instruction to kill the opposition.
Lungu is a time waster because he don’t mean what he says,so don’t waste our time if you have nothing to do and release HH
Very true, Mr. President. This country is much bigger than these brainless opposition characters who will even support criminality as long as it suits them!! Despicable creatures, these opposition types!!
There was Alexander Kamalondo, Kangwa Nsuluka, and Chishimba Kambwili. Where are they now?
Opposition cadres never get tired.they have kept on ranting “release HH,release HH” to no unveil!!so now you have realised that Edgar Lungu is a true Zambian president who has powers to free HH?kekekekekeke.please tell your HH to release himself from Chimbokaila since you have been calling him legal president from August,2016!!
Back to the topic,well said ECL.lets keep on growing the party so that come 11/08/2021 PF will get majority votes and win it again.politics is about numbers.violence belonged to the colonial era.in modern politics we compete with good policies.as youths,we must always avoid violence and promote decent politics.
The law must be taking its course to all suspects regardless of their status in life!!GO PF GO!!
An illegal president with no plans or goals whose only activity is talking about president hh day in day out. I bet when he on top of Esther lungu he still shouts hh. I pity his wife and now understand why she is been bonked by a Mr mwelwa. Soon all this will come out
Very true wise words from my President
Viva Ecl,
Njimbu use proper grammar. What do u mean by ” to no unveil”. Its supposed to be to no avail
You will know PFooIs by their crooked thinking.
Even if u don’t like ECL, talking about his bedroom is wrong. I didn’t vote for him but I respect him as a human being. Let’s mind our language
Is Lungu really human? What type of human is so vengeful and has no compassion, who trashes a competitor’s house and defecates on his bed? What type of human incarcerates an innocent person and tortures him day and night with pepper spray, with no access to medical services? What is the difference between such an inhuman person and Caiaphas, the Jewish High Priest, who sponsored the crucifixion of Jesus?
