MMD candidate in the July 25 Kafulafuta parliamentary by election Evelyn Mwanawasa has withdrawn her candidature.
Family Spokesperson Gladys Nundwe announced that Mrs Mwanawasa was asked to withdraw her name from the race after her blood pressure suddenly shot up.
Mrs Mwanawasa is the younger sister of the late President Levy Mwanawasa is has since been admitted to Ndola General Hospital.
“We had a meeting as a family yesterday and we decided to ask her to pull out in the best interest of her health. We would not want to sacrifice her health for the sake of politics,” Mrs Nundwe said.
“Although the decision has not been communicated to the party leadership, we would like to request that the MMD picks another candidate because Evelyn Mwanawasa will not be standing.”
She said Mrs Mwanawasa has also agreed with the family adding that she will not return to policies even after she is discharged from hospital.
The Kafulafuta seat on the Copperbelt fell vacant after MMD’s James Chishiba resigned to join the PF and has since been adopted to recontest the seat on the PF ticket.
politics have proved fatal to the Mwanawasa family…
She was administered with a potassium injection by the evil PF.
So PF goes unopposed! The other contestants are just small bantustan parties

wise decision by the Mwanawasa family. I only wish that they could have advised the late levy to resign when it became clear that he could no longer handle the stress of running gvt. but we can’t cry over spilt milk
Is the said person “Mrs. Mwanawasa”, “Miss Mwanawasa” or “Ms. Mwanawasa”?
