Majority of Zambians are wallowing in abject poverty because PF has lamentably failed to govern-UPND Alliance

Share

UPND Alliance acting spokesperson Thabo Kawana has charged that the majority of Zambians are wallowing in abject poverty because the Patriotic Front (PF) has lamentably failed to govern the country.

Featuring on East Star Radio in Kazungula on Saturday, Mr Kawana was shocked to learn that the majority of learning institutions in the district were community schools which did not have trained teachers.

Mr. Kawana also bemoaned the lack of Health care facilities in the area such as clinics when the PF government was forever boasting of having built hundreds across the country and yet there was Nothing to show for in Kazungula.

He said instead of public resources being channelled to social Services such as education and health care delivery, funds were ending up being stolen or misappropriated by unscrupulous leaders.

“This carelessness by the PF leadership is endangering the lives of our expectant mothers who have nowhere to go for maternity care and have consigned the future of our school going children in the doldrums because of lack of trained teaching staff in schools, they do not deserve your vote,” he said.

Mr. Kawana noted that citizens across the nation were bearing the brunt of grand corruption and misappropriation of public funds perpetuated by known leaders in government whose evil vices had also been cited in the Auditor General’s (AG) and the Financial Intelligence Centre (FIC) reports but with no punitive action taken against them.

He said the time had come for the PF to be kicked out of power and replaced by a more competent UPND Alliance government.

And speaking on the same platform, UPND Media Director Ruth Dante echoed the call for the people of Kazungula to resoundingly vote for UPND Alliance Presidential candidate Hakainde Hichilema in the August 12 polls to forestall the rampant mismanagement of the economy instigated by the gross incompetence of government leaders.

She said the people of Kazungula and Sikaunzwe in particular had been ignored by the PF for too long such that they lacked safe and clean running water 10 years since they assumed government.

Ms Dante cited the lack of telecommunication networks amongst other critical social delivery services that the people of Sikaunzwe lacked saying such incompetence by the PF was reason enough to vote them out of office.

” The UPND Alliance has a competent team that cannot be compared to PF government which has messed up the whole country.

“These are issues PF should have addressed but they were busy amassing wealth for themselves ignoring people that put them into office. Time has come for them to pack and give chance to the credible leadership of President Hakainde Hichilema.” Ms Dante said.

  1. But you stopped your MP from lobbying government to build more schools and post teachers because to you winning elections you have to make human beings shield your failure like criminals do when cornered by the police. You want to impoverish your own people so that they continue bootlicking you!

    Abject poverty in a series of bumper harvests and enhanced infrastructure development.
    Hehehehehehe Magande under MMD once said Poverty as having many definitions. Food, Clothing, Shelter, Warmth, Wealth, Health etc. Which poverty are you talking about per Magande’s definition.
    But from the look of things the government is working systematically and progressively.
    The author of this article is a perpetual liar. The upndead have no message.

  6. Explain to your voters the importance of Kazungula bridge and its associated opportunities. Explain to your voters the importance of availability of power and how to use it to fight poverty. Explain to your voters that Government is making agriculture inputs on time and that they take advantage of early inputs. Simply put, your song is inconsistent with what the PF has actually done. It is sad, HH has misled you and you are willingly blind to see. VOTE ECL and PF FOR A BETTER TOMORROW>

  10. Hunger will speak for itself on August 12. The “Ubomba Mwibala Alya ifya Mwibala Alya ” PF Team will of course vote for ECL. Those who haven’t benefited from PF Corruption and Patronage are in the majority and will vote for a Change of Govt. HH and UPND Alliance represents that Change and Hope. HH will remove PF Cadre Violence and thuggery from Bus Stops,Markets and other Public Places. Once Peace and Stability is restored then HH and UPND Alliance can concentrate on turning around the Zambian Economy.

  11. You need a better strategy when you are dealing with registered voters in Zambia ..you should know by now..go and study Sata’s way of campaigning. Can you imagine what Sata how crazy that would have been if that FIC Report was published during MMD era with only $200,000 misappropriated or stolen

  12. *Can you imagine how crazy and animated Sata would have been if that FIC Report was published during MMD era with only $200,000 misappropriated or stolen or channelled to PEPs.

  13. UPND Alliance tell your President to go to the Northern part of the country or else he’s going to cry again on August 12.
