Opposition UPND leader Hakainde Hichilema has already conceded defeat in the August 12 general elections, PF Deputy Media Director Antonio Mwanza has charged.
Reacting to a press statement which the UPND leader released yesterday, Mr. Mwanza said it was unfortunate that Mr. Hichilema went into a frenzy condemning the people of Southern Province and ECZ for not assisting him acquire the numbers to help him defeat President Lungu in the August 12 polls.
Mr. Mwanza further stated that the PF is happy that reality has finally dawned on Mr. Hichilema that he has no capacity to unseat President Lungu from power.
“In his confused media article, Mr. Hichilema makes wild claims that the people of Southern Province,Western and North Western Province will not be allowed to vote,” Mr. Mwanza stated.
He has wondered where the UPND leader got the information that the people from his perceived strongholds will not be allowed to vote for reasons he has failed to explain.
“Reality has finally dawned on SAMMY that he has neither numbers nor national appeal to win the the August elections and he has resorted to blaming anyone except himself for his eminent loss,” he said.
The PF Deputy Media Director has noted with concern that Mr. Hichilema has gone on rampage condemning the innocent people of Southern Province, ECZ and even blaming President Lungu for his own disorganization, regional and tribal politics.
Mr. Mwanza charged the UPND leader is in a weak and desperate position adding that he is trying by all means to prepare the minds of his supporters and donors way in advance to be ready for the impeding defeat.
“Everything in his press statement is nothing but a litany of excuses to justify his sixth loss,” Mr. Mwanza said.
“As usual SAMMY does not take responsibility for his own failures, he is blaming the police, ECZ and pa last he will even blame the Pop for his own failures; that is not leadership, true leaders are humble and magnanimous enough to accept their own shortcomings and take responsibility for their own failures,” he said.
Mr. Mwanza charged that Zambians do not owe Mr. Hichilema the presidency hence he should stop blaming them for his own failures.
“How can you surely convince Zambians that you can effectively run government when you have failed to come up with a manifesto for 15 years; that is MANYENGWE,” Mr. Mwanza said.
And Mr. Mwanza explained that the new voters register is on the insistence of Mr. Hichilema himself who had been crying since 2016 that there was need for a new voter’s register as he claimed the old one was doctored among other claims.
“The ECZ as per its tradition and practice has allowed all stakeholders including SAMMY to scrutinize, verify and audit the voter register,” Mr. Mwanza stated.
He stressed that the voters register is not a classified document but a public document which anyone can access.
The PF Deputy Media Director has since advised Mr. Hichilema to stop patronizing, belittling and holding hostage the people Southern saying that they are not his children or property at his farm.
Mr. Mwanza charged that the UPND leader should learn to respect the inherent and Constitutional right of the people of Southern Province to choose any leader of their choice.
Meanwhile, Mr. Mwanza has said that the ECZ has conducted itself in a credible, transparent and inclusive manner saying the entire electoral process has been transparent, inclusive and accountable to all the stakeholders including Mr. Hichilema.
He stated that no decision has been made by ECZ without the consultations of stakeholders.
“So to accuse the ECZ of bias is unfair, baseless, unpatriotic and to put it plainly, simply childish,” Mr. Mwanza said.
And Mr. Mwanza has charged that it is not the job of ECZ to help people win elections.
He stated that politicians have to win their own elections by influencing people to support them with their party Manifestos.
ITS NOT THE JOB OF ECZ TO WIN ELECTIONS FOR A PARTY
BUT WHEN A PARTY COMPLAINS OF OVER 400,000 ALL OF A SUDDEN NEW VOTERS IN A AREA THAT NEEDS TO BE LOOK INTO
AND ONLY A 27 DAY WINDOW TO REGISTER …. AND OLD ONES IGNORED
CARRY ON ID1OTS PLAY YOUR DIRTY GAMES
ONE THING I CAN ASSURE YOU IS ZAMBIA WILL BE HEAD LINES ON ALL WORLD NEWS CHANNELS IN AUGUST
What’s wrong with a stakeholder raising concerns? How can one raising a concern be equated to conceding defeat? I have seen football teams raise concern about the referee or the other team’s tactics before the game.
Take your personal hatrid elsewhere.
Leaving FDD for your personal greedy
Trying to be smart and covering up attacks you made while in the FDD party.
You bandoned it after realising that you were in the sinking boat.
Hh knows he will never lead this nation. He is just wasting his supporters time and energy. The day upnd declares that only a tonga could lead it, is the day they put the last nail in their coffin. Even my boss aka el patron was once a member of upnd but left because he couldn’t stand the tribalism.
If HH is a weak Candidate why is PF trying to remove his Name from the Ballot Paper? They are threatening to arrest HH, detain him and poison him in Police Cells and then allege that he died from Covid-19? Why is PF thru ZPS arresting UPND Members? ECL has not yet been cleared by Concourt to stand in the 2021 Elections. The Republican Constitution is very clear ECL has held office,been elected and sworn in twice in 2015 and 2016 and therefore doesn’t qualify for a Third Term in 2021. Mwanza should wait for the Nominations to close then Citizens will Petition Lungu’s Eligibility at Concourt. Lungu is desperate to cling to Power by any means. He is promising Election Observers free,fair, transparent and peaceful Elections during the Day but at Night he is scheming how to rig the 2021…
Mr Mwansa, please behave yourself. Zambia is not PF private farm. Stop insulting our intelligence. It’s not just HH/ UPND who are fighting your tyrany but thousands of Zambians. We however thank President Lungu and PF for unprecedented poverty, unprecedented FIC, unprecedented Mukula scandels, Unprecedented Corruption and unprecedented colony of China
PF is by far the worst government since colonialists. The money laundering, Corruption, Chinese racism and manipulation of ECZ voters in roll. Killings and State Intimidation and State Capture
YES THE DAY UPND DECLARED “ONLY A TONGA COULD LEAD IT AND THREW OUT ATTORNEY SAKWIBA SIKOTA AS NEW LEADER OF THE PARTY, AFTER THE DEMISE OF THE FOUNDER?”, WAS THE DAY THEY PUT THE LAST NAIL IN THEIR COFFIN. THERE’S TRIBALISM IN UPND.
RANTINGS OF A HUMAN HORSE THAT IS SCARED OF POLITICAL DEATH. A NTHO NIYO JUST ANSWER THE QUESTIONS HE RAISED CONCERNING THE SUDDEN INCREASES OF VOTERS IN THE PF STRONGHOLDS INSTEAD OF HOWLING YOUR VENOM ON INNOCENT ZAMBIANS!
Voting PF will mean continued Chinese land grabbing, money laundering, Fake Fire Tender – Honeybee, Ambulance- HoneyBee, Fake Medicine- Honeybee, fake medical equipment- HoneyBee. Almost every PF leader and Cadre are ” ‘HoneyBeed’ business man and women
These are just diversionary tactics by Antonia Mwanza. With the PF Convention fast approaching Mwanza should tell us whether or not Lungu is going to be elected President of the Panga Family? If so who is going to be VP of PF and Running Mate? PF should obey and respect the Republican Constitution. That Constitution clearly bars Lungu for a Third Term (106(3) ). After Nomination of ECL as a PF Presidential Candidate, Citizens will Petition his Third Term Eligibility at Concourt. We anxiously wait to see if Concourt will endorse ECL’s Eligibility inspite of its illegality and unconstitutionality. Concourt is between a Rock and a Hard Place so it will have to hear and consider these Petitions objectively and Professionally. Concourt’s decision can ignite a
Social Explosion which…
Whoever told you that PF is winning in North-Western lied to your face. Get down to the ground and get peoples views. PF for now is a cash cow, we will tell you what you want to hear and get our cash back.
This small boy has no integrity…I can not read his articles even wild animal like a lion can not reduce itself to this boy’s level
Antonio Mwanza’s Boss, ECL said that ” Economic Activities indicate that there is Money in the Economy and People are living well”. ECL is so detached from Reality.He doesn’t know basic Economics so he Is not aware that most Zambians are suffering with no jobs, no food,low incomes and low purchasing Power due to inflation? PF Policies have caused all this suffering and Zambians now want ECL and PF “ku wire”. Come August 12, 2021 Voters will show ECL and PF the Exit Door.
Who has given this Antonio Mwanza the mandate to respond?? The concerns raised by HH and other stakeholders are directed at the ECZ and the sham voter register which has recorded reduced voters in some provinces while increasing voters in some provinces without any valid explanation. ECZ should explain why there are reduced voters registered in some provinces while other provinces have recorded substantial increases. There will be no free and fair elections when some voters in some provinces are denied their right to vote!! Affected parties should take ECZ to court to address this shameful conduct!!
By this time next year nobody will even remember who this mwanza guy was.
Antonio Mwanza trying very hard to cover his Boss’s mistake. Whoever wrote that Speech telling Angry and Hungry Zambians that “Economic Activities indicate that there is Money in the Economy and People are living well” must be fired. ECL insulted suffering Zambians with no jobs, no incomes, no food etc. Prices of Consumer goods have skyrocketed and are now unaffordable. People are suffering but ECL things they are “living well “. On which Planet does ECL live? How can he be so detached from Reality? On August 12 we will send ECL to “ku wire” chabe. He has outlived his usefulness.
I have convinced at least 5 people to vote for HH. I Know there’s someone else somewhere who has done the same for HH. I am a tax payer for almost 10 years and I Know why I need change and it’s within my right and not the useless laws ATI cyber bill.
Why is PG fixated on HH if he is not a factor? Why not consider threats from other opposition leaders, e.g. Danny Pule, Tayali…etc?
PF* (my autocorrect is refusing to accept PF)
Mr Mwanza is playing his game of
Winning by creating his wishes or
Is he scared of HH?Mr Mwanza if
Wishes were horses like when you
Were in FDD,Nawakwi could be your president.
HE CONCEDED DEFEAT A LONG TIME AGO. DON’T WORRY ABOUT HAKALUSA HAGAIN. YOU ARE WASTING TIME EVEN TALKING ABOUT HIM. HE IS A REJECT BIG TIME.
Eastern Province, where the President hails from, now has an additional 120,324 voters; Muchinga an extra 52,311; Luapula 51,763 and Northern 43,634. Meanwhile, in areas that voted for the opposition, we have seen significant decreases despite continued population growth.
My home of Southern Province now has 31,978 fewer voters, Western Province has 51,772 fewer voters and North-Western has 16,123 fewer voters. It is hard to look at these figures and conclude that the registration exercise was balanced and impartial.
NRC’S ISSUED WITH NO PROOF OF BIRTH OR AREA JUST PRESENT YOURSELF AND GET GIVEN
GUESS WHO THIS IS ???????????????????????
Narcissistic personality disorder involves a pattern of self-centered, arrogant thinking and behavior, a lack of empathy and consideration for other people, and an excessive need for admiration. Others often describe people with NPD as cocky, manipulative, selfish, patronizing, and demanding.
Antonio Mwanza must realise that People are suffering while ECL ,him and fellow PF looters are “living well “. This is not about HH and UPND anymore; it’s about ECL and PF living rich while the masses are languishing in Poverty. ECL and his PF looters don’t see the suffering that the Poor masses are going thru. PF Elites are dishing out money to buy votes while the masses have no money in their pockets to buy food and other necessities. This is now a struggle between the Poor masses and the Rich in PF. On August 12 the suffering masses will send ECL and PF looters to “ku wire”. The writing is on the wall.
Mr Mwansa , that chi KZ ,the trash party PF and even Lungu are all obsessed with HH coz they fear him at the polls.The last election was a very close shave almost defeating ECL.
NARCISSISTIC ACCORDING TO OXFORD DICTIONAY
people with NPD as cocky, manipulative, selfish, patronizing, and demanding.
NARCISSISTIC ACCORDING TO OXFORD DICTIONAY ??

AWAITING MODWERATION TILL THE COWS COME HOME

Madam Elidah Banda who arrived at the constituency secretariat to a thunderous welcome by scores of her supporters who were chanting slogans as they waved and flashed UPND symbols tendered in her application for adoption to the chipata central chairman Mr. Joseph Banda at exactly 10:30hrs CHIPATA
After political careers are over, you know the lawyers to avoid
Let truth be told ! A Typical example of people wasting time, is the old style blogging in different names by the same person and hope that Hakainde will amass more votes. When they lose they say Hakainde was popular. Look at this UPND cadre blogging under (Mumba, Mutale, Bwalya, Musa Musonda) just the same individual. The writing style and the language can only be missed by a grade 1.
It was Politically not strategic for ECL to say: “Activities means there is Money in the Economy and People are living well”. That is such an insult to suffering Zambians. All indicators show that the Zambian Economy is under severe stress due failed Economic Policies by the ECL/PF Govt. People are Angry and Hungry becoz of skyrocketing Consumer prices, lawlessness and Misrule.People are tired of the ECL Govt and want a change of Govt in 2021. HH and UPND should be given a chance to Govern Zambia and turnaround the Economy and improve People’s lives. ECL and PF Govt has failed.
