THE We Are One Zambia Alliance has unveiled its executive leadership ahead of the August 13 general elections, appointing Kapembwa Simbao as presidential candidate and Yusuf Dodia as his running mate.
Alliance chairperson Sakwiba Sikota announced the appointments, describing the move as a significant milestone as the alliance positions itself for the 2026 polls.
Other key appointments include Muhabi Lungu as secretary general, Stephen Munsanje as youth chairperson, and Trevor Mwamba as deputy chairperson.
Sikota said the leadership team was following the alliance’s convention held from March 6 to 7, 2026, noting that the process was guided by principles of unity, mutual respect, and collective purpose.
“Participants were advised to leave their egos behind and embrace one another rather than compete among themselves,” Sikota said during a press briefing.
He added that members resolved to prioritise cooperation over personal ambitions, fostering a united front ahead of the elections.
Meanwhile, Simbao pledged to lead with integrity, transparency, and accountability, emphasising his commitment to national development, security, and economic growth.
Dodia, who will serve as vice president, highlighted Zambia’s vast natural resources and economic potential, expressing confidence in the alliance’s ability to deliver meaningful change for citizens.
