PF Chairperson Says Mwila’s Remarks Hold No Weight

PF Chairperson Says Mwila’s Remarks Hold No Weight

The Patriotic Front’s Acting National Chairperson, Hon. Jean Kapata, has issued a strong response to remarks made by former secretary general Hon. Davis Mwila, stating that his public comments about the state of the party hold no weight and should not alarm members.

Kapata explained that Mwila is the least suited individual to speak about the future, unity, or internal direction of the PF. She argued that his recent statements reflect personal anger and resentment rather than any genuine concern for the party. According to her, members should understand the context of his outbursts, which she linked to his removal from the Central Committee.

She said Mwila carried himself as though the party could not function without him, adding that this attitude was the root of his frustration. Kapata stressed that the PF’s structure is built on discipline and collective responsibility, not individual dominance. She reminded members that no person, regardless of history or seniority, is above the organisation’s principles.

Kapata also pointed to the period in which Mwila served as secretary general, noting that it coincided with the PF’s worst electoral performance. She said the loss of more than one million votes in the 2021 general election remains one of the most significant failures in the party’s history and reflects poorly on his leadership record. She said this should have prompted reflection rather than hostile commentary.

In her statement, Kapata urged PF members across the country to remain calm and avoid being influenced by comments that do not represent the direction of the party. She said those who are committed and loyal should stay focused as the PF continues its preparations for the upcoming General Conference.

She explained that the conference is the only recognised forum for selecting the next party president. Kapata stressed that the process is legitimate, non-negotiable, and will not be shaped by private preferences or side arrangements pushed by any individual.

Kapata stated that Mwila is free to leave the party if he feels dissatisfied. She said the PF will not pressure him to stay, nor will it allow internal competition to be manipulated in favour of any preferred candidate. She added that the leadership is aware of his interests and said the party will not divert from its established procedures.

She called on members to remain united and disciplined as the organisation moves toward an orderly and credible electoral process. Kapata emphasised that loyalty must be demonstrated through respect for party guidelines rather than public attacks or attempts to create confusion.

She reaffirmed that the PF remains intact and committed to stability. She stated that the leadership is focused on guiding the party through the conference period with clarity and without being drawn into internal disputes that do not reflect the collective position of the membership.

  1. We miss PF in government. I wasted my vote on UPND in the last elections. Things were cheaper in PF than now. And we had a well measured President who knew what to say at any given time.The subsidised fuel was good. Atleast the nkhongole was on government, please PF come back

    • Tapapata PF, find a way of coming back. After your lesson in August 2021 which we are teaching your friends next year, I know there will be no cadres

    • The drunkard gave us better results, the angels have lamentably failed. Now crying that they are hated.

    • You actually miss corruption, thievery, caderism and tantamenini and big corrupt names like kasaka kandalama, A,.Bonanza, jubox, bull dozer, etc

    • It’s true , You have missed big political figures like kasaka kandama, bonanza, Atm budozer and the like.

    • Indeed, some have missed sharing stolen resources. Some have missed beating others in bus stations and markets. Indeed some have missed corrupt and thievery activities. Some have missed tantameni organized by special figures like kasaka kandalama, bonanza and bull dozer.

    • Maybe you were one of those commanders in the bus stations. Though you corrptly enjoyed, you should regret because most of your masters today are either in jail or charged and just waiting to be sent to jail,for national resources plundering. What a shame!

  2. We want PF back. Apologies PF for kicking you out. Everything has collapsed, governance, economy, FIC report, farmers not paid, loadshedding,even mens football just football. Nothing is working

  3. I think mwila is a political prophet and genuine man. He prophesied and warned the ke people in pf to be arrested, charged and jailed for the corruption and thievery. And an indigenous musician summarizethat thew opposition have to go and produce ma maize, be jailed

  4. Look at that coward up there writing with multiple accounts to portray multiple dissatisfaction………..

    You know your self, only inadequate men use multiple accounts hoping to be a man on one of the multiple accounts………

    FWD2041

    • Even with your comment, we still want PF back please. Who wouldn’t want cheaper fuel, cheaper mealie meal, less loadshedding. Even you, you want though you are trying to show your tu nthota

    • You are the inadequate man……

      I’m sure your wife tells you that…….

      Don’t you feel ashamed of pretending

      FWD2041

  5. PF itself holds no weight either .It is a politically dead party and no ruling party in Zambia’s history has ever come back alive after electoral defeat .

  6. We want PF back PLEASE. We thought they were bad, but look at the crisis now. Literally everything has collapsed

  7. Even UNIP used to be denial for a very long time. PF is done. Talking about cheap fuel, do you have an oil well? You buy fuel on the world. And just know, people are abandoning electric cars, so fuel will continue to be on demand world wide.

  8. PF had cheaper mealie meal, cheaper fuel, cheaper essentials, less load shedding, Each time PF failed something they could acknowledge and not cry about that they were hated. Please report the sponsored confusion in PF to the Hague. We the people WANT PF back

  9. kkkkkkkkkkk…. you are working very hard eeh………….duplicating yourself in pseudo names !!!!!!!!!!!

    PF is gone my dear. FOOOORGETTTTTT !!!!

    • The person wants PF, respect his choice, who are you to say PF is gone? Just in case you have just jumped off the bus, it is actually UPND which is gone, completely., Totally. And if you think using a pseudo name warrants illegality, you can put it in the illegal bill

  10. Tulefwaya PF, Tubata PF, Tuyanda PF, Tifuna PF. And i for one, I am not even PF but I want PF to rule us again. As per their national youth chairman, pa ground sipali bwino economically. Every thing has worsened since 2021. We dont want you please!

  11. PF maybe, but not without any presidential and MP candidates – if the party cannot put a candidate it’s not possible to be on the ballot paper. Names are required for an election, not simply a list of complaints about government. Campaign clock is ticking, it’s measured in weeks to the election. Choose a candidate and campaign, or loss for PF is 100% certain
