I have no plans for youths, they will have to tell me what they need – Mundubile

TONSE Pamodzi Alliance presidential candidate Brian Mundubile says he has no plans for the youths at the moment and that if elected, his government will not impose empowerment programmes on the youths but instead inquire what they need to do.



He said his government would not want to come up with empowerment programmes that will not create any impact in their livelihood.



“I am not coming in as a bally, but as a big brother to the youths. That is why Iam saying I will have to sit down with them, get first hand information on what they exactly need and then pick it up from there,” he said.



Mundubile noted that youth unemployment going upto over 20 percent is an emergency that needs quick intervention.



He said his government will, therefore, move the ministry of Youth, Sport and Ars to State House for quick implementation of programmes.



He said his government will also put measures in all economic sectors, that support youth empowerment.



“We are also deliberate placing the youth in leadership positions so that they can help us come up with ideas on how to help their fellow youths,” Mundubile said.

  1. A Presidential candidate who does not know the needs of Zambian poor youths in the compounds…what a loser.

  2. This unfortunate statement if true , will come back and bite the prospective presidential candidate.

    It reveals a total lack of understanding of the main roles of governnance. A Presidential team’s prime responsibility is to provide a conducive economical and political environment that allow for social and private investments to thrive.

    Once a conducive economic and political environment is established it advocates for good policies that are necessary prerequisites that better the life styles of the youth. It also allows for other stake holders to constructively participate in the shaping of the various investment opportunities.

    To think that sitting down with the youth to ask them for a game plan is the answer is most unfortunate. This confession reveals a serious lack of leadership skills that is desperately critical to handle the strategic high office in the country.

    I hope this statement is not true. If it is I don’t expect anything reliable about a clueless candidate. I am still not sure if this is true, social media can be very unreliable sometimes. If it is true we have no business even thinking about such a candidate. Very dangerous. Do you guys have political advisors who take take to prepare you for public utterances?
