“WE’LL TAKE YOU BACK TO LIFE UNDER LUNGU IF WE WIN” – MAKEBI ZULU

NRPUP Alliance Vice President Makebi Zulu has declared that Zambians can expect a return to what he described as the better days experienced under the late former President Edgar Chagwa Lungu if the alliance wins the August 13, 2026 General Elections.

Addressing thousands of supporters during the alliance’s mega rally in Chingola, Mr. Zulu said a Toonse Alliance government would revive the economy and restore the standard of living that many citizens associated with the Lungu administration.

“We will take you back to living the way you did under President Edgar Chagwa Lungu,” Mr. Zulu told the cheering crowd, drawing loud applause from supporters.

He argued that during Mr. Lungu’s tenure, money circulated more freely in the economy and businesses were more active, adding that many Zambians still remember that period with appreciation despite the country’s economic challenges at the time.

In an emotional tribute, Mr. Zulu also said the late former President would have been happy to witness a change of government after this year’s elections.

He claimed that Mr. Lungu had always wished to see Zambia under different leadership, arguing that he believed citizens were enduring difficult economic conditions under the current administration.

The remarks are expected to add fresh momentum to the heated campaign trail, where political parties continue to compete over who offers the most convincing solution to Zambia’s economic challenges.

As election campaigns enter their final stretch, the economy, cost of living and job creation remain among the key issues dominating political debate across the country.
