“IF TONSE WINS, UPND WILL SUFFER!” – NJOBVU WARNS OF 2026 POLITICAL REVENGE
………..DU Leader Calls for Neutral President, Slams UPND’s ‘Useless Statistics’ Amid Rising Poverty
Democratic Union (DU) president Ackim Antony Njobvu has warned that if the opposition Tonse Alliance wins the 2026 general elections, Zambia could face political revenge, instability, and deeper national division. He cautioned that the ruling UPND would “feel the wrath” of a bitterly charged opposition.
Featuring on Capital FM on Thursday morning, Njobvu said Zambians are caught in a political battlefield between two hostile camps the ruling UPND and the opposition both of which have failed to reconcile for the good of the country. He argued that only a neutral and sober-minded leader can bring lasting peace and unity.

“There is too much hate between the UPND and the opposition. This has affected national peace. We don’t need a government that is coming in just to punish another. We need healing and a fresh start,” Njobvu emphasized.
The DU president, who is positioning himself as a unifier, said most of those in the Tonse Alliance and the ruling party are part of the old political system and should be replaced with leaders offering new, people-centered ideologies. He urged voters to reject recycled leadership and failed promises.
Njobvu also slammed the UPND’s handling of the economy, stating that citizens are tired of “empty statistics.” He said economic indicators being flaunted by the government do not reflect the real suffering on the ground. “The people are still poor, mealie meal prices are high, and fuel price reductions have not helped transport costs,” he said.
He further noted that the current economic hardship is not just frustrating families but leading to rising mental health issues and suicides. “Zambians are suffering. There’s no dignity in poverty. We need leadership that restores hope, not just announces figures,” Njobvu said.
The DU leader questioned why government officials continue to celebrate what he termed “hollow achievements” when the dollar remains high, businesses are struggling, and citizens cannot afford basic commodities. He warned the UPND not to be too comfortable, saying, “Their biggest opposition in 2026 is not a party it’s the people.”
As the election draws closer, Njobvu has invited all citizens seeking change to rally behind the Democratic Union. “We mean well for this country. We’re not here for vengeance or ego. We’re here to build,” he said.
He pledged to prioritize youth and women in his administration, promising to appoint women as provincial ministers. “Women keep our homes. They are dependable. Together with the youth, they will lead this country into a new era,” Njobvu declared.

Politics of vengeance will not take the country anywhere. As Gandhi once said, “An eye for an eye will render the whole world blind.” Think development, not vengeance!! It’s the kind of thinking that has made Fred Mmembe lose the little political clout he thought he had, before he even began. Zambia needs visionary, progressive, mature, and strategic leadership.
Naaa….!
This is a politically irrelevant idiot with ZERO solutions to the challengesZambians are facing. We are where we are because PF and Tonse criminals defaulted not once, but twice on kaloba they got in our name. And today you are demonising the ones paying back this kaloba? You are very schyopet and ungrateful. Someone is cleaning up after you sh!tted on the floor? Let them “revenge” their own schyopedity and financial recklessness if they want. There is no way any normal Zambian will allow those idiots back in the driver’s seat.
A Thief is a Thief, whether under UPND or PF..he should be pursued and prosecuted.
So those alleged Fertilizer deals, Medicines and Drugs Containers, the environmental Consultancy ‘fakes’ ..the murderers of the late Kungo, the unexplained wealth buying chickens at hundreds of Kwachas, properties suspected to be proceeds of crime, Hotels, Lodges, Shell Companies looting Zambian Minerals, Fish ponds and swimming pools, Gold and Suglite Scams, those cited in the FIC papers , grand Thieves..will have their day in court at 14:00 hours soon after inauguration of a new president….and ofcourse those who have been spreading hate, the rogue media and the paid insulters will finally face the Cyber Crimes Court.. ZICTA will be very busy to stop the Rot and bring a decent discourse in Zambia.
Talk of the misadventures in our state institutions , the alleged altering of papers at ‘ Midnight’ , the Kakunkubiti Thuggery and his Files to destroy our Democracy etc
It’s not vengeance Mr DU. It’s being answerable to the law.. equality before the law.Thats why the Economic and Financial Crimes Court was created.. that’s why the Cyber Law was passed. That’s why LEAs are there. These won’t stop working after 13th August, 2026.
So if having a Fish pond was seen to be a proceed of crime under PF, it will be treated the same under the UPND!
With that in your mind then Tonse Alliance will never win.
It s not even vengeance it s pure jealousy that the man they scorned and looked down on is pulling the country back to it s feet. The poorest children are going to school. People are progressing with CDF and people think HH is stealing like they did. They shall never be in power again.
