DRAMA AT UCZ: KWACHA EAST MEMBERS DENY KNOWING THEIR MP BEFORE PRESIDENT HICHILEMA
There was Biblical drama at UCZ Kwacha East Congregation in Kitwe when congregants openly denied knowing their area Member of Parliament, Charles Mulenga, right in front of President Hakainde Hichilema, who had graced the church service.
Like a modern-day Peter at the high priest’s courtyard, members insisted not once, not twice, but repeatedly that they had never seen or heard of their MP. “Mulenga who? We don’t know him!” some muttered, as if waiting for a rooster to crow.
Observers in the congregation could not help but chuckle, likening the scene to the three denials of Apostle Peter, except this time it wasn’t fear of Roman soldiers but disappointment in parliamentary performance.
One church elder was even overheard whispering, “Unless he performs a miracle of multiplying jobs and reducing mealie-meal prices, then maybe we shall recognize him.”
President Hichilema, sitting through the awkward denials, maintained a calm expression though some claim they saw him suppressing a smile.
In the end, the Kwacha East MP found himself scripturally ‘disowned,’ proving once again that politics and pulpit encounters can bring out the most unexpected gospels of the day.

Once people vote for you what is so difficult to work?
Be reasonable our mps
When I say that UPND won’t get any seat on the Copperbelt, some people think am just Hallucinating, like the Hallucinating Hypocrite.
Hakainde and his UPND are gone. The only assured seat for them is Mpongwe.
Even when the UPND branded vehicles were passing through Kitwe and Luanshya on Saturday hooting on way to the Baptist Church 120 Years Anniversary Celebration Cum UPND Rally, no one bothered about them..The other day a UPND MP was distributing Chitenges, and people just looked from a distance.
The only way Hakainde will win in 2026 is through Manipulation.. but the people won’t allow him. Kwacha has given him a reality Check, and in Church!
Come 2026 , on my Ballot will be
Hakainde’s Executive Misrule.. Moribund Governance Systems, Weakened and Compromised Democratic Institutions, The Misrule of Sacreds,by Sacreds and for Sacreds..
Nellie Mutti ‘s Parliament
Mumba Malila’s Judiciary
The Axis of ….
The Axis will fall on 13th August,2026.
Simply It shows that they know him BUT dissatisfied with her/his work. No connection with those that voted for her/him.
UPND may loss kwacha but NOT the CB So think twice Kwacha because Kwacha is NOT CB.
@Collins Teembo
Go to Chingola, both Nchanga and Chingola Constituencies , Chililabombwe, Mufulira, Ndola…
And Luanshya Central and Roan Constituency…
The MP for Luanshya Central sometimes passes in town, and no one even bothers to greet ba honorable.
Kitwe isn’t talking about UPND Members of Parliament my friend.
People in towns can see through cash for work programs, CDF and Imita Ufole…No one can dance for a 1 x 3 classroom block, while his business has collapsed due to Load Shedding.
And for your information Kwacha was Joe Malanji’s seat which was stolen even with a Court Order in place..and Kabushi in Ndola too.
For those who were thinking Hakainde is headed for a Landslide, there is a reality Check in Kwacha and in his presence.
