UPND Unveils the Newly Elected Management Committee with William Banda Raking Highly in the Party

1. When are these goats going to petition the results? That is the only thing they are good at- crying and petitioning after losing. This was a PR stunt. Come August they should accept results same way they have accepted these ones.

6. Quite a NATIONALLY represented team. Well done UPND. I wish I had challenged HH, but unfortunately I am not a card carrying member. If he loses again in August, I am taking over UPND. PF is not attractive to me. I am not keen on the plagiarised UNIP constitution of PF.

7. The PR exercise was well stage managed ok. Now were is pf’s then? With them it’s still one man appointing everyone. Some provinces still have no elected structures, they are still represented by one-man appointees. Come August Zambians are decided on change only

19. Well done HH and UPND for holding a successful and peaceful virtual Convention. We hope other Political Parties will emulate this good example. This Convention should be a good take away to all Political Parties in Zambia especially the Panga Family. After Conventions are held by all Parties we look forward to a free,fair, Credible Elections on August 12, 2021. President Lungu should ensure that Zambia holds peaceful Elections in 2021. PF must realise that a rigged and violent Election will produce an illegitimate Govt. Given the Covid-19 Crisis and the Economic Crisis Zambia doesn’t need disputed Elections which in turn could lead to the International Community imposing Sanctions on Zambia. With Sanctions Donor Aid, Concessionary financing and Commercial Credit will dry up. The…

I am a black belt in karate, many people don’t know. I only use it for self defence. I can release 50 kicks in 60 seconds and 70 dirty slaps per minute.

33. PF are jealous about the outcome of the UPND Convention. Well we will see how the PF will hold its own Convention and see if it will be inclusive.These Conventions are required to be held in terms of Article 60 of the Republican Constitution. The Republican Constitution also provide that a President who has been elected and sworn in twice cannot stand in the upcoming 2021 Elections for the third time. A Third Term 4 ECL is therefore illegal and unconstitutional. Furthermore ECL cannot be allowed to serve 4 more than 10 years. We anxiously wait to see how Zambia Concourt will endorse a Third Term 4 ECL in breach of the Republican Constitution. All eyes on PF and Concourt.

34. The national anthem was sang in different languages for each verse imwe @Zambian citizen

35. William Banda has not in the last few years exhibited any kind of the rabid PF cadre violence we continue to see

    8

36. This whole formula used in this Upnd convention does not make sense, because for the 70 NMC members to receive those votes each, unless there approximately 234,000 voting members at each provincial convention or each one of them voted several times. But the provincial totals don’t even reach 150,000 when tallied nationally. Something fishy must have gone on! Stranger than fiction!

37. I feel sorry for HH. He is trying hard to shake off the tribal tag. Unfortunately, his advisors in this quest are his nemesis. Very sad for my friend. He is not cut for politics.

39. William Banda my foot! Has this man changed for the better? It is very good to see tribal balancing in this NMC. I just pray that if this party wins elections this year this tribal balancing will continue

41. Are all these committee members without positions or its Lusaka times that has not provided full information we need to see the ranking in the part

42. William Banda is the third most popular person in the UPND according to the results for the party General conference.
    Abena Garry Nkombo and the likes of Jack Mwiimbu and some UPND veteran are not popular in the party.

43. The main thing is open transparency of that convention, independent observers were invited with out fear ir favour…….

    Now the thieves in PF ??? Nothing is transparent, yet they have a so called lawyer leading them…..

44. UPND are very good at making grave mistakes and then they cry rigging when they lose. UPND should have done better not to associate themselves with William Tekele Banda. They should also not have looked desperate to shed off the tribal tag six months before the election because Zambians are reading through the cosmetics. Once in power UPND will go back to their hidden constitution written in who knows what tribe.

45. The key here is the 30% seats for appointees. This is were we will see whether or not UPND has repented for being tribal and regional or they are just playing cosmetic. Otherwise fish starts to rot from the head and the head was not subjected to the ballot.

    1

46. Ba Chicken, this was not a convention but just part of the process because positions were not attached to names, so this is where you see dictatorship in somebody! The second phase of the convention Hichilema will single handedly attach positions to each name! That’s when chaos will erupt. Because already most Tongas are not happy with this “tribal balancing” since Upnd is a party for Tongas and Tonga’s only! Heaven knows where they are headed next!

47. Our friends have exhibited democracy. This was suppose to be the ruling party then followed by the opposition parties. My thoughts though

48. UPND is a democratic party. No doubt about it. Bravo to all its members! You are a pacesetter in terms of peace during elections.

49. A party convention without squabbles is no party convention at all. Spoke to two colleagues of mine who belong to both the Labour and Tory parties here in the UK and told them about the ‘peaceful’ UPND convention back home. They both laughed their heads off and said “those my friend, are not politicians. They lack passion. People go to conventions with agendas. No way to avoid some friction brought about by passion to serve the people. Your friends were having a corporate meeting and in such meetings, you all agree with CEO”. There you go!!
