Vice President, Guy Scott, has appealed to the people of Kapiri-Mposhi District to vote for Patriotic Front (PF) candidate, Eddie Musonda, in the forth-coming Parliamentary by-elections.

Dr Scott said the people should carefully consider voting for Mr Musonda because currently, the PF is the only party with a promising future in the country.

Speaking yesterday when he addressed the multitude at Lukomba Secondary School in Mpula Ward, Dr Scott said his government will deliver development to the Zambians in accordance with the campaign promises made during the September 2011 tripartite elections.

The Vice President appealed to the people in Kapiri-Mposhi to exercise a little patience and faith in the PF leadership, saying the government is aware that many Zambians are wondering when it will bring development to the country and that efforts are being made to ensure that most of the challenges are addressed.

He observed that it is impossible for his government to change things overnight because there has been a lot of damage experienced over the last 30 years but promised that all will be well for Zambia because the government is working tirelessly to address the problems.

Dr Scott, therefore, appealed to the residents in Kapiri-Mposhi to vote for PF on April 23, 13 in order to ensure development in the country.

And PF elections campaign manager, Jean Kapata, has assured the people of Kapiri-Mposhi that they will see immense development in the area once they vote for PF candidate, Eddie Musonda.

Mrs Kapata, who is also Deputy Minister in the Ministry of Community Development, Mother and Child Health, said Mr Musonda is the only credible candidate among the three candidates vying for the Kapiri-Mposhi seat.

She said UPND candidate, Lawrence Zimba, has already instilled doubt in the minds of the electorates because he engaged in corrupt practices to scoop the seat during the September 2011 elections and because of that, the people of Kapiri have undoubtedly lost confidence in him.

She added that UNIP candidate, Francis Mwape, is not a factor to the PF because the party is long gone and has nothing to offer the Zambians in terms of development.

Mrs Kapata, therefore, urged the residents to vote for Mr Musonda, saying it is only the PF government that has the capacity to resuscitate the country’s economy.

And Central Province Minister, Philip Kosamu, has stated that escalating lies that President Michael Sata is ill will not help the opposition to win the April 23 by-elections.

Mr Kosamu said the move by the opposition to generate lies about President Sata’s health is a clear sign that the opposition has run out of ideas.

He advised the opposition to focus on issue-based campaigns if they are to attract even a handful of voters in the forth-coming elections.

The minister said there is need for the opposition to accept that the PF is currently the party in power and will rule Zambia for as long as the Lord wants.

  1. When a white man says something , as a black man you have to listen and listen well.
    You cant avoid Scott

    Thanks

  2. very soon there will be news that someone has undergone plastic surgery to change their colour, any they cant afford. they do whatever they are told by whites were they are. Big up PF thats the way to go scott

  3. With only one year and seven months gone, the PF campaign messages have already started sounding hollow and hopeless. Small wonder Jean Kapata resorted to name calling and character assassination. PF has a mammoth task to prove to the people that they are not mere charlatans and liars who simply want to be in power for the sake of it. Pronouncement after pronouncement will only add to the perception that PF is a party of liars who are motivated by the Munkombwe philosophy of politics of benefits. Only work and positive results will make people to have confidence in the party. Not creation of districts, bye elections, pronouncements and commissioning of projects left by the previous regime!

  4. 90days was part of the manifesto & that is long gone. In short you have failed all we hear are promises after promises, soon we shall be hearing the same stuff in 2016. I think its time to tell you(PF) seleniko bambi babombeko

  5. ANYONE WHO CAN’T SEE WHAT PF IS DOING MUST BE A LUNATIC. THANKS, THOSE WITH PF ARE IN THE MAJORITY. NO MATTER HOW SPREAD YO LIES U HAVE GOT TO LIVE WITH THE FACT THAT PF 20 YEARS IN. WHERE WILL B YO HH THEN? AN OLD FOOL I CAN IMAGINE. GO,GO PF !

  6. @OSMORE you are free to educate us on what PF is doing, dont just yap without facts & figures

  7. Dear OSMORE since you can see what positive development PF have made, can you kindly list then so that others can see and appreciate.

  8. Dear MUSHOTA. By now most bloggers with a higher IQ know that:- 1.) You are a MAN. There are so many tell-tale signs in the manner you present yourself. 2.) You are intelligent; there is no doubt about that, but you deliberately play dump. 3.) You have a strong racial prejudice that stems from childhood. It is very deep rooted. 4.) You are a homosexual and strongly perceive yourself to be a woman and want people to believe that. 5.) You are an attention seeker trying to compensate for something emotionally missing from your life, most likely due to your homosexual mentality. So, in summary you are an intelligent but an emotionally insecure homosexual man, who suffers from a strong inferiority complex. The good news is that it is never too late to seek cure, my brother. There are many…

  9. Osmore, you do not need to insult in order to convince others. If you have seen what PF is doing why not mention it without being emotional. It is people like you who are doing injustice to this country by trying to perpetuate the second republic mentality that those in government are more intelligent than the people they lead.
    Remember, not everybody is a party cadre like you. Learn this that tax payers are much more important than party cadres!
