Dead sand buried you can rebrand it as much as you can you are DEAD and BURIED. No sane Zambian will ever make the mistake of being a gang of thieves into government again.
The carcass smells time to bury it
Ati GBM head of mobilization what a gang of jokers
Zambians are not S.TUPID as you thought.
Unfortunately you still think they are
Best wishes. Just when did Zambia recycle former ruling political parties? Former individual arty members, not the whole block. MMD New Hope got nil MP”s in last elections.
The PF can’t rebrand with Edgar Lungu still at the helm. Edgar is the most rejected person in the PF. The PF must consider to replace him immediately. As for coming back to power, that will an unprecedented feat. Zambians never go back to what they unanimously rejected. And how do they hope to achieve that with an ineligible leader? How do they still cling to a person that has caused them such humiliation? Anyway I wish them well
You are ,and will always be A CORRUPT CRIMINAL ENTERPRISE OF A PARTY.
No REBRANDING REORGANISING REGROUPING RELAUNCH Will change the perception of your party by the Zambian People
You are a Party of THIEVES,FOR THIEVES BY THIEVES.
Soon Zesco or ZRA or the Chinese Will not be paying your wages .
You are Goners,will stay Gone .
PF is gone guys, just forget about it. 99% of your current membership will be serving time in prison not too long from now.
Wait until new government is put in place. Rebranding my foot.
This is brilliant and should be encouraged to ensure we move forward as a country. The PF strategy of destroying everyone and everything in it’s quest for domination has clearly backfired. The losers need to take stock, re-organise and offer effective checks and balances. MMD and UNIP need to take a good look at themselves and reorganise the party structures. We need to see youth in these parties because clearly the dead wood have nothing to offer but zero votes. We should breakaway from destroying loosing parties to oblivion but instead re-energise with fresh blood. In PF though, this is ironic because you can shuffle the chairs as much as you like, the outcome will be the same because the people rejected the chairs not the message.
Excellent. Keeping the guys who are responsible for the huge loss at the election, and even promoting GBM and AM to the national committee, is an absolute guarantee that at next election you will get the same number of seats as the MMD: namely ZERO! And that is what it should be!
You guys are even more dumb than I thought. You’re not even kicking out the guy who got you into this mess most, namely Edgar China Lungu??? So you were honest huh, in your determination of what went wrong? Yeah, we know PF’s honesty!!! Hahaha Kikikiki!
But nipatali kubweza ba pf
Pf will never bounce back
Why don’t you select KZ, the stup!d UK based troll and imposter, as your new leader? That would absolutely guarantee that you would end up with a NEGATIVE number of MP’s! Hahaha Kikikiki hehehe!
Too late too little…I doubt if this party will resurrect…this is the end
You just made my day! KZ would get a non-existent Cuban cigar and cheap bubbles (instead of champagne) but I will stick with a good cappuccino!
Hey KZ, who are you going to get as your media director? Antonio is no longer available, he is now teaching the youth how to become a corrupt marketeer!
So this is the re-branding of PF: Antonio Mwanza, GBM, Given Lubinda et al. My goodness me, they might as well add Chishimba Kambwili.
They clearly haven’t got a clue as to why they lost the elections! Same old and no new ideas, just recycled the old wood that’s only good enough for a few nights. I hope they’ve reflected hard on their divisive insults directed at certain groups of Zambians. If they are smart enough , this is the issue they need to tackle , because we could have easily turned into another Rwanda genocide. We do not need such leaders in our beautiful country. The likes of Kambwili and other repulsive beings should never be allowed to call themselves leaders.They are destroyers of our basic human rights which we are all entitled to.
Really laughable
UPND and PF will remain alternate governments. Zambia is now a mature democracy.
The music chairs. In the next five years there will be a completely different PF.
Being rewarded for hate speech
To think a great country like Zambia was under the control of these brainless morons is a traumatic experience. I would like to thank the great youth of our republic for getting rid of the scumbags. Ati rebranding and then placing GBM as mobiliser! I know that PF is an !diotic criminal organisation but bringing back the same punks that cost them the election is just insane! And Lungu hopes to bounce back to state house again! This is so hilarious. They not only are stup!d but they have serious learning disabilities! They have not learned that Zambian don’t just go back to what they vomited. UNIP, MMD stand out as examples of what happens to you when you are rejected by Zambians.
The incoming UPND GRZ should make sure all Zambian tax payers monies used to finance lungus campaigns are paid back by PF……….
look at the financing of PF regalia , posters and cash handouts by MPs……..and ZAF chopper rides…
The big bill will finish off PF……..if the glove was on the other hand , those PF would not hesitate to kill off UPND….
Get the recites ready for them, before UPND regrets not finishing off these crooks when you had a chance……
You all kids saying Zambia never goes back to the used. How many political brands have ruled Zambia so far?. Only 3 UPND 4th. It’s like you have bought 6 t-shirts and upon wearing the 4th one people start praising for not recycling. Wait until you have no new brand forming that’s when you shall understand.
As for PF. You guys never cease to amuze us with your madness i thought we learned a lesson. But it seems we are stricken with a very powerful spale of madness. There’s absolutely nothing PF about those appointments. Just making matters worse. Mumbi Phiri, Malanji, Paul moonga and others who are not soiled with corrupt allegations could have been better than the likes of Mwanza naba nankwe.
Next twala umfwa ati Kalimanahi Youth chairperson or spokesperson. Ifyamungulufye fyekafyeka. chi Davi mwapwisha PF nefikopo finobe.
Yes let them reorganise PF so that they remain in their pathetic losing party. We don’t want defections. We don’t want PF to contaminate UPND
Amama neo,this is like collecting ash to light a fire.You must be admitted to chainama.
Zambians have unanimously thrown PF into the bottomless pit.
Be serious imwe ba PF n get regular jobs. Your Party PF is DEAD n will remain in opposition for many many years like UNIP. Move on.
GBM repulsed zambians with his tribal talk…thank you for promoting him….he will again bring the best youth numbers to vote for UPND
Five years from now it will be called new PF hope party and Antonio and gbm will be in court both claiming to be the legitimately elected president of the dead party.
CONGRATULATIONS BA LOSING SG FOR REALISING YOUR GRAVE MISTAKES. HOWEVER, MY MAIN CONGRATULATION TO YOU IS OVER YOUR SCIENTIFIC IDENTIFICATION OF SOME MAIN CULPRITS WHO DECAMPAIGNED YOUR PARTY, AND LEADING IT INTO A DOGISH SHAMEFUL LOSS. I FURTHER WANT TO THANK And CONGRATULATE YOU FOR APPOINTING AND TASKING THE VERY CULPRITS TO VISUALIZE , FEEL THE POLITICAL SHAME AND TRY AND RESTORE THE GLORY OF PF IF POSSIBLE. IN ZAMBIA , ONCE A RULING PARTY LOSES……,,,,,,,,,,,,,,IT BECOMES LIKE ETERNAL SINFUL DEATH. OH EVEN YOUR HIRED MUSICIANS ARE NO LONGER WITH YOU. THEY HAVE CONFESSED AND EXPRESSED REPENTANCE FOR HAVING BEEN HIRED BY CROOKED PARTY. BUT REMEMBER TO PAY ALL THE DUES DUE TO MUSICIANS AND MEDIA HOUSES , ESPECIALLY TV STATIONS
The PF will never and I repeat never come back in power… That’s just been the trend in Zambia, when a party loses power they are never voted back to power…
Vote for PF in 5 years so you can be afraid to go to Bus stations. So you sell out more of Zambia to the Chinese, so PF can send vigilantes to take over your jobs and to continue corruption. PF is done, No Sata proved PF couldn’t do the job. After UPND, there will be a new flavor in town. Nobody wants MMD back, Nobody wants UNIP back and nobody will want PF especially after giving Zambia a president worse that Fredrick Chiluba.
If you want more infrastructure development n party after party after party VOTE PF.
Nobody in Zambia likes PF, even when those chiefs were saying here mukapita telling Edgar Lungu, they were just detached from their people, in any case, they did not realize that no Zambian takes instructions from a chief, some chiefs were very selfish even saying we must vote for PF because they built me a palace, how, when your subjects are struggling to have a meal
With this boys vulgar language, I doubt he can inspire the youths. Another mistake, even after loosing elections, it appears this party cant learn, This is a party which had a very disrespectful media directorate
No, not PF Please. PF is dead with no hope of resurrection
mew Youth new National Youth Chairman. You *****s don’t edit
PF have been serious Jokers in government
To be honest with u, it will take u 200yrs to look sane in the eyes of a normal Zambian. Mark my words!
This hasty post-mortem has just confirmed PF has become obsolete. You give positions to the same people who played a part is humiliating election loss. They haven’t learnt anything from the loss. So deluded
Day dreaming guys, you will never bounce back. Very soon we shall witness massive defections of members to the UPND just watch the space
