Such statements were not there when HH was in prison. Is it concidence that these statements are back after his release?

  The reason there is political violence in Zambia is because it serves the interests on Edgar Lungu. For crying out loud this man is Commander in Chief and if he really wanted to he would let the police deal with cadres professionally. Mwanawasa didn’t tolerate such but he was a more seasoned lawyer and better president

  When did Mwanawasa become a better president? When he died?

Zambia never experienced an forms of violence and threats when hh was in prison. What does this prove to us. Connect the dots and you’ll know who sponsors violence in the country.

They have started again, so who is talking about violence iwe liswaniso ? The way PF beat you during elections times is how upnd are being beaten even during physical fights.its only in upnd regions where you beat them(non Tongans) because they are a few in number. Try any nonsense in these 7 provinces you will lick your sores so better behave . ECL and meaningful citizen are a peace loving.Dont try to engage in physical violence especially in Lusaka and Copperbelt , these are PF strongholds for that much you know..

A normal youth will not fight for politicians. If you think you shall win elections by fighting bwana you are a loser. Why fight for K50.00 just to please an individual. Continue fighting normal Zambian know who to vote for 2021
