Hichilema Will Win Big on the Copperbelt – Elisha Matambo

UPND Copperbelt Province Chairman Elisha Matambo says President Hakainde Hichilema is expected to secure a strong victory in the August election in the Copperbelt Province.

Matambo said the turnout of supporters during the pre-processing of presidential supporters held at Lowenthal Theatre in Ndola demonstrated strong backing for the President in the province.

He said the numbers reflect growing confidence in President Hichilema based on what he described as the delivery of development during his time in office.

“We are set for this election. Instead of coming with 100 supporters, we came with close to 10,000 of them. This shows that President Hichilema will win big on the Copperbelt Province,” Matambo said.

He said the party is targeting 80 percent of the vote for President Hichilema in the province.

“Our target is 80 percent of the vote for President Hakainde Hichilema here on the Copperbelt. We will work hard and fight to deliver better results,” he said.

Matambo also said the UPND aims to secure all 29 parliamentary seats, all 256 councillorships, and all 10 mayoral positions in the Copperbelt Province.

He urged party members to intensify campaign efforts and act as campaign agents for the President ahead of the general election.

“I am urging all party members to continue supporting and being the President’s campaign managers ahead of the general election,” he said.

Meanwhile, Electoral Commission of Zambia (ECZ) Chairperson Ambassador Ndiyoyi Mutiti said the pre-processing exercise in Ndola was conducted smoothly and without violence.
