Following the coming together of political parties that held a press conference on the 31st January 2024, to call for a broad cross cutting national movement; the said political parties have agreed to have Mr. Sakwiba Sikota SC., the President of the United Liberal Party, ULP, to be the interim Chairperson of the grouping.
The said opposition parties have also agreed to have Ms. Chishala Kateka, the President of the New Heritage Party, to be Coordinator of the group.
The first task for the interim Chairman and the interim Coordinator is to have the proposed name, for the group, to be cleared and seek registration with the Registrar of Societies.

Say following the coming together of individuals, don’t mock political parties. No wonder the appointments and not elections, especially that even the appointed are failures and without any following except their two buttocks each. STUPID IDIOTS making a morkery of democracy.
Yes this is valid but what does opposition parties saying about Barotseland? Do they want to divide Zambia into two?
The truth of the matter is that there’s no country called Barotseland. I Know eg – Swaziland, England etc.
As long as you are linked to PF and Lungu, you are going nowhere.
This is very good. Now we will see the Mingalatos again…the so called registrar of Societies.
There will be Venom from Koswe, Megaphone State media like ZNBC, Zambia, Daily Mail , Times of Zambia…and paid Social Media Praise thugs…to undermine the alliance. Don’t worry about the noise. Remain focused and resolute.
Meanwhile eyes not off the ball..Ensure the PF court cases being handled by Judges Chocho Situmbeko, Sililo Siloka, Timothy Katenekwa ( Suspended) and Mulife are followed to the latter..
And also the other Variations , the stealthy variations so that the Mingalatoon is kept chasing shadows. All the best.
I want lungu to stand again, he thinks it was a fluke
Truly, we are a nation of jokers! Opposition Aliance, what for? None of the opposition parties as the clout to stand toe to toe with UPND and win?
Time wasters.
Desperation of spent forces!
