UPND/MMD alliance secretly formed

Share

The United party for national development (UPND) has formed a secret alliance with the MMD aimed at de-campaigning the patriotic front leader Michael Sata, QFM has been informed.

Sources close to QFM have stated that the alliance has been dubbed secret, away from public eye were the two political parties have agreed that PF should not form government.

It has been learn that part of the door to door campaign that the UPND has been conducting is aimed at de-campaign the PF president Michael Sata, stating that the PF government will legalize same sex relationships.

QFM news has also learnt that the secret alliance between the MMD and UPND will never go public, but will merely be working underground.

Sources further say that the alliance started after wrangles in the defunct PF/UPND pact emerged.

But UPND national youth coordinator Brian Hapunda has dispelled such reports saying that the UPND is far beyond such type of politics.

Mr. Hapunda has described such reports as mere speculation meant to undermine the party in the eyes of its members and supporters.

Mr. Hapunda explained that the UPND has never entered into any alliance with the MMD.

He says that the UPND does not see any reason to enter into an alliance with a party that has destroyed the country in the 20-year rule it has ruled Zambia.

  1. Indeed they don’t need an alliance, but the happeningz on the ground are there for all to see. Do you remember the last time a UPND official said anything non destructive about their fellow oppozition PF?

  2. I thought Sata was the one who said HH is under five,calculator boy, UPND thinks with the tribal so what is wrong for UPND to talk against PF  a party of Kaponyas…shocking as usual Kaponyas do not want to be talked despised…

  3. Have you noticed? When UPND “broke relationz” with PF, they were immediately given some coverage by the Times of Zambia, Daily Mail and ZNBC. Whatever happened, and what withe feud UPND steered with The Post, there iz not one media house “covering” the once vibrant HH lately. 

  4. They can come in dozens and thousands against the mighty PF but they will still fall. Come September PF for plot 1

  5. ‘Sources close to QFM …’ If QFM were serious they should have known to look for sources close to MMD or UPND not their own minions. What kind of quack journalist does this station have?

  6. What is the poor HH afraid of, has he done anything wrong some where, the guilty are afraid all what Zambians need is their money back any one who has stolen must pay back

  7. This small tribal UPND is visionless,like Siulapwa’s party,they are busy attacking the opposition and not the MMD.

  8. There is nothing secret about this alliance because both UPND and MMD have gone all out on the attack of PF. Whatever their discussions, whether done in secret or in the open, both appear to be working towards a common goal. Interesting times indeed.

  9. the gap between the second and the third upnd party in this years election is getting wider & wider because hh is decampaining himself.UPND will never form government unless they change their party president\:d/

  10. PF is so paranoid, thr r afraid of their own shadow!! How do u expect UPND to want u to take over power??? Every opposition party, including MMD (which is opposing you) is obviously fighting hard that they come to power and in turn make sure NO ONE ELSE WINS!!! What’s SO news about that??? Dull chaps!! It’s not a secret!!!

  11. PF, MuPombo, Mulongoti, Derrick Fitala and the POST on one end, MMD, Siluapwa, Times Znbc, on one hand….Upnd..QFM, Ichengelo, Door step to door step….Daily Mail….and at the recieving end the Voters of Zambia…Vote the next GRZ that will lead us to 2016….its campaign time lets go….

  12. It is logical for the MMD and UPND to form an alliance to make sure Sata doesn’t win. Sata is the greatest danger to Zambian democracy and economic well being. What is more worrying is that Sata has ganged up with former MMD big wigs who made up the discredited Chiluba regime. We all agree that RB is not the best for Zambia but Sata will be worse and this is a view shared by most UPND supporters. As UPND we will campaign to win but if we realise that PF is gaining support on tribal lines we will gang up with MMD to block Sata.

  13. UPND may be a small party in the eyes of the Patriotic Fools and their gay image builders the Post. But the UPND membership will teach a lesson to all the dont Kubeba muppets by ‘voting to injure’ – vote for a UPND MP and give RB the presidential vote.

  14. ZAMBIA minus (MMD+PF)=REAL CHANGED ZAMBIA
    HH/UPND SUPPORTERS are wise enough to see the DEVIL PROPAGANDA IN PF AND MMD.
    PF=MMD=CORRUPTION=HATRED=DECEIT=RECYCLED LEADERSHIP=MASTER ELECTION MANIPULATORS=VOTERS’ CARDS BUYERS=ENEMIES OF PEACE,DIOLOGUE,TRANSPARENCY. 

  15. that would be the only right move hh has made in these campaigns. Work with rb please to save us from the impending shame. We cant have a barbaric en thugish character in statehouse. Pf i promise to vote 4u if uken have some one else and not sata or kabimba as president. Have u heard miyanda says he cant support a thug 4a president:d

  16. Mama! this is foolish again HH like Siulapwa guy? Alimwi sorry why not visiting back PF. I know UPND will one day form govt better than an other party, but they shudnt always talk ill of Sata or Rb no… pliz. just tell us what you intend to do, then we vote for you, period. HHHHH……….

  17. I think that HH missed an opportunity in that he is probably a good manager, but a poor leader. Sata on the other hand appears to be a good leader but poor manager. The two naturally compliment each other; that is why I supported the PACT. I think that the demise of the pact should be a lesson on greed and personal insecurity. It is fine to be a deputy or assistant as long as you get results and are recognised as such. A title means nothing. In Zambia, it appears that the opposite is valued more, so you have; Executive Director – Leadership Search, Chief Executive….. Executive Presitent …… Former Secretary General….

  18. VOTING FOR PF IS LIKE DRESSING A HYENA SHEEP SKIN YET CONTINUE TO BELIEVE HYENA IS SHEEP. SATA NEVER CEASED TO BE MMD IN CHARACTER. HE IS CUNNING. HE TOLD THE NATION THAT HE HAS A DEGREE AND YET CIA FACT FILE DOESNT INDICATE SO……..WHAT A MASQUERADE SATA IS…..KUYAPOKA DEGREE SURE PA MATERO????

  19. I have said this before – Zambia is better off with RB. He is reasonable and has tried in the past 2 years to move the nation forward. If Sata came to power – he would reverse, everything because he has no plans on how can develop Zambia. He is a dictator that will not respect the rule of law. Chawama and Panga hacking experience will be back on the streets of Zambia to please his core supporters – which are mostly thugs and losers’ like Mpombo & Mulongonti. UPND will vote tactfully

  20. I WOULD LIKE TO THANK THE PF LEADERSHIP FOR THE MATURITY THEY HAVE SHOWN AFTER THE DEMISE OF THE PACT.UPND HAS REMAINED IMMATURE AND UN DECIDED BUT WITH ONLY AGENDA OF BLOCKING SATA TO STATE HOUSE.I DON’T SEE WHICH ZAMBIAN WHO ARE NORMAL DOES THIS UPND REPRESENT.BECAUSE OUR COMMON ENEMY IS MMD.PF HAS A PACT WITH THE PEOPLE.UPND HAS TURNED TO BE THE ENEMY OF PEOPLE DUE TO UN TESTED POLITICAL LEADERSHIP.

  21. @3, but do you know what you want to do in state house? of course not!
    or maybe you want to re-introduce the plunder that was interrupted when sata was not annointed by fjt? yes, more like it. you have to be pf in order to understand non.sense.

  22. In the interest of Zambia, an MMD/UPND alliance would be good in many ways, both in the short and long term. We have to learn to put our egos aside and our Country first. Bigger and stronger Countries do that whenever necessary, that’s why they are strong. We all know that Obama formed an alliance with Hilary Clinton resulting into a stronger Govt. She put her pride and ego aside and put her Country first. Here in UK Nick Clegg (Lib-dem) formed an alliance with David Cameron (Conservative). He put aside pride and ego and put Country first. Lets learn from that.

  23. This is old news, isnt it!? Anda 5 ( hh) has been in this alliance with mmd for a long time. Now that ftj whom hh sold zambian companies with is with mmd, hh has joined mmd. I ve advised tongas many times that if its a tonga they want to be president, magande is there. This anda 5 hh is wasting their time.

  24. There is nothing wrong in forming alliances if you have a common ground and have the interest of the nation at heart. PF and UPND had formed a PACT, which was good for democracy and the nation. However, the PACT could not work and it collapsed. If indeed the UPND want to form an alliance with MMD, is there something wrong with that if it is for the good of the nation? Look at the thinktanks in UPND and MMD, and look at the thinktanks in PF. Which can be a more viable alliance if we put country first? I bet we all know the answer.

  25. Now UPND is in a secret alliance with MMD?! Wow, this Party is really showing everybody that its leadership is a bunch of novices!! Does UPND hope to survive on alliances alone? Why can’t they show some political stamina and go it alone and at least get the Party to where Mazoka left it?

    HH, you are really selling this once vibrant Party short. The way you assumed power as UPND President (on TRIBAL Lines) has continued even on the National level. If you do not make an effort to shake off this TRIBAL TAG, no amount of political alliances will help UPND form government. This will never get UPND the Presidency because Zambia is bigger than Southern Province and a few isolated areas of Central Province where Lenjes or Ilas are the majority. GET REAL UPND!!

  26. The two Parties have a democratic right to work together based on the principle of “Service to the People” rather “State House First.” Only those who think State House is a priority will discredit meaningful collaboration. UPND/MMD go ahead form the alliance its health for the nation and continuity.

  27. Well observed herdsboy #17. These Pa Fwaka sympathizers dont get it. Sata has already everybody he will be a wako ni wako president. can somebody tell me why UPND members whose majority come from the provinces that Sata hates, vote for him? UPND does not owe PF anything. Who says Sata is the alternative to RB? Continue with ur arrogance. It wont take u anywhere, come sept u will be crying foul. Mark my words

  28. UPND HAVE NO SPINE TO STAND ON THEIR OWN…….THEY CAN’T FOOL ANYBODY THAT THEY CANNOT FORM AN ALLIANCE WITH MMD…….VERY SOON THEY WILL HOLD A PRESS CONFERENCE WHERE THEY WILL ANNOUNCE THIS FACT……BUT WHATEVER THE CASE, THEY WILL FALL TOGETHER…….PF’S PACT IS WITH THE PEOPLE, THE VOTERS AND NOT FAKE POLITICIAN WHO ONLY HAVE ONE VOTE EACH LIKE EVERYBODY ELSE………………NI PA BWAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAATTTTTTTTTTTTOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO.

  29. Satan will never prevail over our motherland mark my words. For us we gonna continue doing what we does till Jesus Christ comes. My vote will go to Mr. Hakainde Hichilema and UPND. HATERS you can say what you like but I just don’t give a toss.

  30. UPND speaks of issues just like MMD. The public media will support such views. UPND is consistence just like MMD. An alliance is welcome if need be. For now MMD can still win without HH. RB has made mistakes just like anyother former presidents. He will be remembered after his second term. Naturally SATAn can never embrace RB.His nature is to kill, bite, harm. The dagga he used to smoke is still working in his head head, making him mad each day. He will be very crazy when he loses elections for the third time around. The Living GOD will never give you our country to govern. Mark my word. I already have a revelation. 

  31. GUTTER JOURNALISM FROM A GUTTER NEWSPAPER….NO FACTS AND ALL ACCUSATIONS.
    WHY IS THERE NEVER ANY EVIDENCE IN ZAMBIAN BREAKING NEWS?…..ITS ALWAYS LIES THAT WHY!
    H.H HAS SAID OVER AND OVER THERE WILL BE NO PACT WITH MMD DOGS BUT SLEEZY NEWSPAPERS LIKE THIS ONE LIKE TO RUN RUPIAHBISH STORIES.

  32. aba tonga twalemyeba ati hh wont take you anywhere .you kept on telling rb and sata that they are old folks now your ka under 5 packed with sata and now it is rb this chap hh should stop compairing himself to abama but to osama cause he is a traitor and greedy chap let stand as wardc/man in magoye.

  33. ba kanyakula tribe does not make you inteligent or dull.u should knw that better. u live in a civilized world thus i expext more frm people like u. I can understand the thinking capacity of a kaponya waku soweto, no exposure thus…….
