OVER 20 Patriotic Front (PF) women in Eastern Province who travelled to Lusaka to denounce their provincial chairman Lameck Mangani have been suspended from the ruling party pending expulsions.
The suspension of the women from their positions in the party was with immediately effect.
According to the resolutions presented to Acting Republican President Alexander Chikwanda in Chipata yesterday signed by PF districts chairpersons and read by Katete District Chairperson Joseph Makukula said the PF women currently in Lusaka should not be allowed to meet President Michael Sata.
Mr Makukula said the all district officials present felt that the said district chairladies were being funded by the opposition MMD to cause internal wrangle in the ruling party.
“The purported trip to Lusaka by these women was not communicated to their respective district officials particularly their chairmen.What came out so strongly was that all the district officials present felt that the said district chairladies are being funded by the opposition party, MMD and internal enemies within the party who are against the good leadership of the provincial chairman Lameck Mangani and his team,” they stated.
They stated that the leadership of Mr Mangani was appointed by the party and Republican President and he constituted a provincial team which it should continue to lead until 2016 general elections.
And Mr Chikwanda called for unity of purpose among the party members.
He said President Sata was a visionary leader who also loved everybody in the party

” President Sata is visionary who loves everybody in the party”. Give us break Chikwanda!Better say you’re lucky to be Finance Minister for a president who knows nothing. It makes it easy for you to steal, lie, and he won’t have a clue. Although, you’re the most useless Finance Minister Zambia has ever had, I am sure you’re intelligent enough to know that State House with Sata’s feet under that table is in fact a hollow place, empty space or presidency on autopilot,nothing good for this country will come out it.
Chances are high that the women our mothers have realized our useless this man is, hence they action. remove the from PF so they can join the thinking opposition.
but i thot the women were welcome by PF assistant gen sec
Does it mean Alexander Bwalya Chikwanda also acts as PF president when one Ukwa Chumbu Munshololwa CNP is out of the country? What is the job of mugaiwa scott then?
Scot doesn’t qualify to be president by our constitution and as such he cant act as president in the absence of the president. Unfortunately its only in zambia were you have a vice president who cant act as president
