THE MMD Die Hard Youth Wing has charged that those party members against the National Executive Committee (NEC)’s decision for the former ruling party not to contest the Lukulu and Kapiri-Mposhi by elections are disgruntled masqueraders.
MMD Die Hard Youth Wing national coordinator Bowman Lusambo said in an interview yesterday that there was no youth in the party who was against the decision not contest the two by elections.
Mr Lusambo said contrary to assertions by some so-called MMD members, the resolution not to participate in the Lukulu and Kapiri-Mposhi by elections was arrived at collectively and not by president Nevers Mumba alone.
“No MMD youth is against the decision by the NEC that the party should stay away from the Lukulu and Kapiri-Mposhi by elections. In fact, as the MMD Die Hard Youth Wing, we are happy and behind the decision which was made by NEC.
“MMD is a very big party and thus the decision was arrived at collectively and not by one individual. We are, therefore, warning those masquerading as MMD to stop issuing falsehoods because they have been paid to do so. They are wasting their time because MMD will never be derailed from our goal of getting back into power in 2016,” he said.
Mr Lusambo said the decisions advanced by the former ruling party to boycott the two forthcoming by elections were valid as the MMD wanted to concentrate on re-building and re-organising itself coupled with a “24/7” recruitment exercise ahead of the 2016 general elections.
“By so doing (re-organising, re-building and recruiting), when we have the general elections in 2016, Nevers Sekwila Mumba will be 100 per cent ready to face any opponent,” Mr Lusambo said.
And Mr Lusambo has described as unfortunate and shameful Government’s “harassment” of Zambian traders, especially mealie meal dealers, at border areas.
Mr Lusambo accused Government of having failed in its agricultural policies and thus was venting its anger against mealie meal traders at border posts, warning that the move to interfere with the operations of those business persons would not help Government in any way.
He bragged that when the MMD was in power, people from neighbouring countries such as the Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC) used to buy things from various sectors of Zambia’s economy, but that mealie meal shortages being experienced in some parts of the country currently did not occur because of that.
“We (MMD) left things in order. I assure you that come 2016, MMD will bounce back and the country will be transformed because will pick up from where left,” he said.
Iwe Ububi. Naiwe kanteleni uko tata mwaba bamba ya mawaya
Hahaha..MMD bouncing back to power in 2016??? Why should you waste time ranting MMD this MMD will do that, the fact is that MMD is forever dead.
Peace and Prosperity to Mother Zambia.
MMD is the only democratic party where anyone from any province regardless of tribe can stand for any position and he or she wont be judged by his or her tribe, province, size, rich or poor, etc. decisions are collective after consultation. pf-is led by fred mummembe, nchinto and foolish/corrupt criminals and satanists
I think you are also diselusioned like your presiden.t . Its the Zambian Citizens that are disgruntled with MMD. Foo.lish Chap.
“MMD is a big party”…correction…used to be a big party.
MMD is now a spec of its mighty past. Its embattled, chaotic and insignificant politically, without operational resources and with inept leadership in place.
What a mess!!
There is a Bemba saying,which says that:”Ombela umo ombela,amenso ya bantu tayalya”.Meaning:Umuntu muntu.MMD,do what you have to do.Don’t mind the detractors,they will always be there.They talk,but offer no solutions.One wonders,what they see in PF,that can make think that these Pathetic Failures(PF) can rule for more than One-Term.For once,please try to be spiritual,and find out,why God allowed PF to rule.PF is a stop-gap measure government.
With Pastor Mumbwe……..there is no chance what so ever.
I respect Lusambo for being principled a quality rarely seen in cadres.Most of them have abandoned MMD but he has stayed on.
AS IF WE CARE.YOU MADE YOUR BED,LIE IN IT.
People in Lusaka who have never been to a constituency in Lukulu or Kapiri Mposhi and are making leadership decisions without asking the people concerned. Let the people in Lukulu and Kapiri Mposhi decide for themselves if they have anyone willing to run in the election on the MMD ticket. The one party song MMD is singing, sounds like the gay issue on which it based it’s campaign in the last elections and people did not buy it. They should concentrate on facts and stop using Amsterdam template which is making them sound like *****s when they make wild allegations about PF. RB luggage will drag MMD to the abyss, they should cut him off and concentrate on other issues affecting Zambians not on one individual. The party militia like MMD Die hard should be abolished at all cost.
In other words, MMD is fighting against itself. Ba Mumba, a house that fights itself cannot stand. Please sart reading the Bible again. Lusambo, my friend and former classmate, please do not use the media to address internal issues in MMD.
so lusambo as seen the inside of a class?
wonders will never end.
How can a student go on break and bounce back and pass. It takes a lot of hard work and dedication to catch up and pass…After over a year that has passed, the party keeps losing members and its expects them to bounce back…in your dreams maybe. Winning an elections is about numbers, and those numbers are those leaving the party. Re-branding or changing colours of a party does not change the mind set of those with memories of how they were abused to enrich selfish MMD members. If you can’t beat them join them.
