TONSE ALLIANCE REBUTTAL OF STATEMENT ISSUED BY DR FRED M’MEMBE
Lusaka, 10th October 2025
1. The TONSE ALLIANCE is disappointed with a statement that was allegedly issued by Socialist Party President, Dr Fred M’membe, and which was carried in yesterday’s edition of News Diggers newspaper, in which he claimed that the TONSE ALLIANCE is a part of his so-called United Opposition Front Alliance, and further that his alliance will be choosing a leader in 2 weeks time.
2. The TONSE ALLIANCE wishes to categorically state that we are not, and have never been a part of Dr M’membe’s alliance. And neither have we ever been approached by Dr Fred M’membe to join his so-called alliance.
3. It is also our strong belief that Dr Fred M’membe’s statement was specifically designed and timed to undermine the TONSE ALLIANCE by casting aspersions on our road map that was unveiled during the 15th Council of Leaders meeting, a few days ago, and in which we set the date for our General Congress as 29th November 2025, and the nomination fees for those aspiring to stand as Alliance Chairman and 2026 Presidential Elections Candidate, at K300,000.00
4. The TONSE ALLIANCE wishes to take this opportunity to render a piece of advice to Dr Fred M’membe; sir, please conduct your politics with the integrity that you continuously claim to have.

Confused lot
Let they be confusion in the camp of the enemy.So that they fight each While the election nears by.
Leaders come from our Society. They are a product of our Communities.
So when you have a confused lot aspiring for leadership, it means even our society lives , or ascribes to confusion.
The crop of Leaders we have leaves much to be desired..In God’s own time, Leaders who will save this country will come around..As for this generation, we have to live with what we have.
It’s who we are. We cannot be what we aren’t.
Tembo has the spirit of Saboi, soon very soon he will tear this alliance apart with his bulldog mentality of attacking everyone, some issues are better resolved behind the media because of misunderstandings that can be sorted out by talking to each other in a sober manner
