‘Intimidation is the reason the MMD lost the Chilanga seat’

Jubilation from UPND supporters
The Citizen’s Forum CF executive secretary, Simon Kabanda has attributed the loss of the Movement for Multi party Democracy MMD to intimidation by the ruling party.

Mr. Kabanda also observed that the blame game that the ruling party is beginning to play on who is responsible for the loss incurred in Chilanga last week is a wake up call for the party to put its house in order again.

He said the MMD party leadership should have known long before that violent behavior by their Lusaka provincial chairperson, William Banda is not their best approach to politics.

Mr Kabanda noted that the MMD has never been exemplary in averting political violence and now it has cost them big because they tolerated it within their rankings and allowed it to breed.

He has ,therefore, challenged the party leadership to take disciplinary action against their violent cadres and ensure that they were tamed before the next elections.

Mr. Kabanda has repeatedly appealed to the MMD leadership to consider reorganizing its house before few violent figures mess up the tenants that the party has built its credibility on.
