Voting Pattern in Dundumwezi Must Change as a mark of appreciating President Lungu-Phiri

Share

The Patriotic Front (PF) has implored people of Dundumwezi Constituency in Kalomo District, Southern Province to vote for President Edgar Lungu in the 2021General Election, to reinforce development projects in the area.

PF National Mobilisation Committee member Bizwell Mutale has also urged the Dundumwezi electorate to rally behind a PF Parliamentary candidate in the 2021 General Election.

Mr. Mutale has observed that President Lungu has spearheaded a lot of developmental projects in Dundumwezi despite the low votes the PF has continued to attract in the area in successive elections.

He says the voting pattern in Dundumwezi must change in favour of PF in the 2021 General Election, as a mark of appreciating President Lungu’s commitment to developing the area.

Mr. Mutale said this when he addressed Dundumwezi Village Headmen.

At the same function, one of the Village Headmen in the area appealed to government to increase the capacity of the farmer input support programme among farmers in Dundumwezi.

And speaking in an interview with ZNBC News, Chief Chikanta of Kalomo district said chiefs and headmen in the area are ready to work with government to implement developmental projects.

Chief Chikanta said it is incumbent upon traditional leaders to work with the government in the implementation of developmental projects.

  1. The people of Dundumwezi deserve development whether they vote for the PF or not and it’s the duty of the Government to take development to all corners of the country irrespective of where they have support or not. If the people of Dundumwezi didn’t vote in the manner that they did there wouldn’t have been any democracy. I urge the people of Dundumwezi to vote as they wish and not allow themselves to be blackmailed by fake promises of development.

  2. This kind of thinking must end in 2020. Whether taxpayers vote for you or not you are still obliged to develop their areas. It is their money you are using.

  3. People of Dundumwezi will vote for Lungu when pigs fly. Zambians in other parts of Zambia should consider voting for HH since they owe Tongas the presidency. That way people can stop calling others as dull, thieves, corrupt, uneducated and we can live in peace again.

  4. But the man has lamentably failed. Look at the economic indicators. He should be voted back on what basis. What is the meaning of logic then? Do you have an idea what benchmarks we use to measure an economy. Our economy is gone because of reckless borrowing and a microscopic lack of leadership to have had oversight over that

  5. I thought voting is a right and that right entails you to choose whoever you want, no individual should make you feel bad about the decision you make. its only in zambia where a commission can be set up to question you for voting for someone. yet our friends before an election they even know which sates are republican and democrat, but the final say is left to the swing states and swing voters.

  6. What needs to stop is classic rigging eyabena Kazier Sulu, were even if you voted for yourself you still get zero votes.
    It only happens in Zambia under PF govt.

  7. In the just ended by-elections in Lukasha & Mwansabombwe, there were polling stations where UPND was scoring as low as 25 votes against PF’s 4000 votes. You did not see anything wrong with that, When it comes to Southern province, it is tribal voting but the same in northern, is not tribal but PF’s strong hold. Stop the hypocrisy for once

  8. This is very shallow thinking. That’s why in the PF era there’s more poverty than ever seen before in this country. Let people elect a leader of their choice. That’s what multiparty democracy entails. No wonder why they are busy suppressing the freedoms and rights of the opposition while championing their own to mobilize and campaign

  9. Come 2021 only people with no eyes can complain and speculate but for the wise they appreciate kano umwana wandoshi eushitasha.Ason of a witch will not appreciated or be thankfull.

  10. people at Sesa polling station in mwansabombwe gave UPND zero votes against PF’s 600, no one in upnd has cried or called for a commission of inquiry.

  11. Yes the voting pattern must change everywhere in Zambia, no vote should be given to corrupt, thieves. Change must come.

  12. Do not worry, it is changing in 2021. The people of southern are coming to a realisation that HH does not mean well or bring anything to the table. Even with the diabolical voting experienced in dundumwezi, we still took development there because we understand that the residents are zambian and were being bribed and forced to vote upnd or face severe consequences within their communities. This time we have all confidence that they will vote with their brains

  13. Things will change in 2021 – we will have Kaizer on the ballot as well if all thing go According to plan. He will have overwhelming majority because people know his track record.
