United Party for National Development- UPND-has dispelled stories circulating on social media that the UPND Leader Hakainde Hichilema has been arrested.
UPND Deputy Spokesperson Cornelius Mweetwa says stories circulating on social media are fake as the UPND leader is safe and there is no police presence at his residence.
Mr. Mweetwa says the party is not aware of any of the allegations circulating on social media and has advised those behind it to desist from doing so stating that is unnecessary and uncalled for.
He said this during a media briefing held in Lusaka at the party’s secretariat.
The Deputy Spokesperson further said no one from the UPND should issue any statement without getting clearance from the party Spokesperson, expect Mr. Hichilema.
He said anyone who speaks for the party should also ensure that there statements are accompanied by vocal or video to support the statement being issued .
Mr. Mweetwa noted that there have been many fake statements issued and attributed to the party .
And, Mr. Mweetwa has condemned the current impasse of gassing and criminal activities happening in the country.
Mr. Mweetwa said it is important for all Zambians to realise that there is only one Zambia that needs to be protected and safe guarded from such acts.
He has further called on the security agencies in the country to be proactive and ensure that such criminal activities are stopped .
This is appropriate promptness. There are some hell-bent on using it as an excuse to loot.
Do not worry. If he is arrested we will make the announcement. Let us not spread fake news. We know people are anxious and want this issue dealt with. However, as things stand there is nothing to warrant arresting hh. It appears there is panic within upnd circles. Only the guilty should be afraid. We have already arrested a number of key suspects as I have been informed by security officials back home. Our partners here in Russia have been very helpful and hospitable to me. I note that many people seem to think I am no longer in government and wondering why I post alot. To set record straight I am no longer political advisor to our president. I am now in a more senior role which I cannot freely discuss for security reasons. Any questions please ask me rather than fuel silly rumours. Kz
@kaizar Zulu. You are in Russia to collaborate rigging the 2021 elections. We know what you ve done and what you are doing with the enemy of democracy, Russia. You are not welcome in uk, Canada, usa or australia. All your actions in the name of pf or lungu are well documented and secured in databases around the world . Above countries can not waste paper to issue a visa to a corrupt thug like you in your personal or diplomatic capacity. Your days are numbered.
Psychology is sweet than s#x indeed;
body’s posture and verbatim tells a story. This is trying moments of certain grouping in Zambia.
It’s like a family member who is in ICU henceforward they don’t know what tomorrow might hold.
Kaizar.. Why would your role in government be a secret? Don’t you have your own CID in Zambia? You claim you & GBM claim you know people responsible for this terrorism, while killing goes on! Your PF president has been silent while more innocent lives have been lost and trend continues… Don’t you think you are being reckless and responsible for ignoring this terror? You aught to be ashamed of yourselves. Zambia is quickly turning to a piece of Land with no leader at the helm,. Sad to watch.
Continue with the illusion that Russians are your friends.
Check out Russian Human rights record and be I bed with them. I have heard reports in news that they interfered in 2016 USA Elections! REMEMBER.. Elections in Zambia are 2021….Zambia is no America..
Kz has some very impressive inferiority complex, extremely so that he wants to feel important and powerful all the time. We know that EL dragged you to be special advisor in the OP, something you should keep quiet about but the need to feel important keeps you talking.
With that being said, you in Russia to try and influence elections in your favour. Russia only does military and intelligence nowadays, no trade.
KZ, We want to see action and results. Otherwise, just keep quiet with your taxpayers money in Russia.
This government is an embarrassing fail.ure.
LT fix your website its flickering alot
Fake news and rumor mongering is now a way of life in Zambia
For HH to be arrested, it doesn’t matter if he has done nothing. So don’t rule it out.
Tomorrow we will hear he has been murder by his own kwindis.
We know the can’t arrest HH. The Pfools can PFool some people some time, but you can’t PFool all the people all the the time. We already know the PFools doing the gassing, They are trying hard to PFool us by shedding crocodile tears.
The persons who should be arrested are:
Kaizer
Sunday
Kamba
and Tayali.
But imwe, why ka Tayali got involved in big men’s discussions? That boyi should be arrested by the Ethiopian government for abusing their girl.
Well hope you are now matured and responsible with your new role, you were slowly turning into a serious thug man during your time as political adviser!
Zambia will be better.
Mwebantu, honestly this is Idiocy of the highest order exhibited by KZ. Even when you have slept with a prostitute you’ll point at HH. You puff in your pants, you’ll still point at HH. Everything bad you point at HH. We know you now, that’s why you’ve been boosting that you’ll win elections by 95% because you want to eliminate HH. Sorry to disappoint you, HH will stand in 2021 and will WIN. The God we worship doesn’t sleep your black magic will not work for you this time. People power is what you will see. You’ve destroyed the name of Edger Lungu isn’t it enough? What more do you want? You have sold your soul to the devil so you have nothing (no heart) i feel sad and sorry for the people who follow you foolishly blind. Implicate HH and see!!!!!!!
WHAT SENIOR ROLE ARE YOU IN? ARE YOU STILL SUFFERING FROM “acute hallucinations of grandeur’?
Kaizer Zulu says do not worry when HH is arrested we will make the announcement so which means this thing is aimed at HH but it will not happen or else it’s you Kaizer who is going inside i thought you were fired by the president why are you still talking for government PF should ask Lusaka times to close this account for Kaizer Zulu here because the guy is still embarrassing the party and the president through his talk on Lusaka times.
What is Kaizer doing in Russia remember Russia interfered in USA elections through cyber attack i think these guys are now learning new tricks of how to enter the server through cyber attack not like what the Ugandan guy did to enter physically at Mulugushi conference center last election UPND wakeup up your game don’t sleep too much or you will cry again.
Why the rush about hh…..? As long as is Zambian and he has committed the offence, definitely the law will follow him. No need for him to start crying in the public now when no one has even mentioned him other than his own died hard sarrogate. If his not involved… let him live his normal life like any other free Zambian.
A lot of conspiracy theories from the comments above. The elections will be won by us in a free and fair environment as has always been the case in previous elections. How do you expect opposition to win when all they do is field the same losing candidate five times and spend their time quoting economic numbers on Facebook? My job is to ensure pf continue to perform well in all corners which translates into winning elections. I am not naive to the fact that I have a lot of enemies. I mean who wouldn’t if you won elections? Kz

I am travelling back home today after a very successful work trip to Moscow Russia. A lot has been achieved during this trip and I thank our Russian partners. A very beautiful country indeed. The western world try to paint a negative picture of Russians but from my first hand experience, they are very welcoming and their women are even more respectful than expected. The racism is just propaganda because from the zambians I met here majority of them are settled with Russian women. Very integrated. I am considering sending my kids here in future. Travelling mercies. Kz btw koswe stop dreaming
