LAUGHABLE PATRI0T1C F00LS PROPAGANDA
That’s the beauty of democracy right there. Go with what works for you in your region.
LT forgot to mention that Luiwa constituency has been under UPND since 2011.
LT should tell the PF Media Director that Situmbeko Musokotwane and the UPND are running things.

Party cadres do not win elections. The Labour party in UK has the largest number of members but it fails to win elections.
This is not true,am a Libonda Ward resident, it’s just propaganda let’s wait and see come 12th August the truth will be known not this day dreaming propaganda.
Surely how do you see a party plunging the country into massive debts,stagnation and economic meltdown then you join them? These are blind PFools.
Waiting for empowerment funds but their vote will go the other way.
