Fellow Country Men and Women,
I greet you in the name of One Zambia, One Zambia during this festival season. As we celebrate Christmas, let us all remember that our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ is the main hero to focus on. As we end the year, l want to repeat my statement following the Kawambwa by-election when I called upon my fellow opposition leaders and members to share their experiences, pick lessons and begin to engage and discuss with the aim of joining hands to work together.
For me, dialogue, collaboration and teamwork among opposition leaders are vital as we prepare for the upcoming elections in Pambashe, Petauke, and beyond. To this end, I have begun meeting with fellow opposition leaders in my capacity as Former President as well as Chairman of Tonse Alliance. This is to demonstrate my deep commitment in mobilizing and building a united and solid broad coalition for regime change in 2026 within the framework of Plan B.
All engagements with like minded opposition leaders are designed to ensure that Zambians are given a consolidated and United front in upcoming bye elections and to guarantee victory in 2026.
This should never be taken as a political endorsement of anyone. During this slippery period of inter and intra party discussions and alliance formations, l would like to appeal to everyone to desist and avoid political manipulations or opportunistic postures.
To our PF and Tonse Alliance members as well as all our supporters at home and abroad, l would like to encourage you to remain strong politically. Let us focus on Plan B because Plan B is the only hope and alternative for Zambians. Don’t be mistaken nor misled by anyone that l have endorsed anyone as 2026 presidential candidate anywhere. Moreover, Tonse Alliance has not endorsed anyone as 2026 presidential candidate apart from myself!
Therefore, our Plan B remains rooted as our only hope for the Zambian people within the framework of Tonse Alliance and other like minded stakeholders. This is our prayer, this is our resolve, and this is our redemption plan for 2026. As earlier noted, l have a noble duty as Former President and Tonse Alliance Chairman to engage, mediate and dialogue with as many as possible who are like minded in the opposition. This process is about building unity and collective strength, not individual endorsement, because the fight for democracy requires that we stand together as one.
In 2026, we need everyone and I am duty bound to continue spearheading this noble exercise of uniting the opposition. In 2026, l pray to see a united opposition and finally, in 2026, I firmly believe that a united opposition shall secure and deliver victory under Plan B!
Dr. Edgar Chagwa Lungu
Sixth President of Zambia
Tonse Alliance Chairman and 2026 Presidential Candidate
This plan B is giving nightmares to his friend.
He has probably directed all government instruments to decipher this plan B.
We need change in 2026, but it has to be someone fresh. Someone like Sangwa can take Zambia to the promised land.
Vote wisely in 2026.
Vote wisely in 2026.
Lack of choices can end with; as-is-where is.
Sangwa Great Loud mouth Indeed.
Of late suffers from memory laps and indecisiveness.
Tell him not to fly the plane before defrosting lest he will crush.
2026 Forward paka 20 sate 1 and beyond.
Yes Sangwa in 2031, not 2026 you quack
Vote wisely vote for HH7 in 2026, even 2031 if Zambians say so
Yes Sangwa in 2031, not 2026 you quack
Vote wisely vote for HH7 in 2026, even 2031 if Zambians say so
Mind you Sangwa did mention that he feared that HH7 may rule for a long time because of the nice way he started ruling the country
What’s going on here? I’m responding to Indigo Tyrol’s comment and I am being directed Mr. Crab’s comment
Zambian Observer your page is corrupt
There is no Plan B, this I can assure you Indigo. If you still have faith in Lungu then you are lost. From the very beginning the man has been blank, no idea no plans.
Ba Indigo naimwe, sure you are still being deceived by this man and his fellow traitors and you can even dream of change in 2026.? These your Lungu and group have but completely nothing to offer than their snake and pretentious dove style of human being but you can’t be two at once. It is either you are like a snake and you give yourself a snake name or a dove PERIOD.
LUNGU chalipwa takatekepo futi walaaaa! But can reunite with Kalaba who resigned in LUNGU PF cabinet sighting massive corruption and now is a darling so he becomes birds of the same further fly together of course for a purpose. Very soon Freddie Mmembe will surpass them from the look of things and I doubt if Mmembe can work with Lungu who badly harrased him and grabbed him of his Post Newspaper and sold all his courier trucks using Musho as their lead lawyer and most of his printing equipment was sold to Sakala which he is using to manage his Daily Nation paper.
But for Lungu, his end was decided and he is just galavanting. No bwino bwino for him. He can just work with Dan Pule, Peter chanda, daga man sinkamba and the likes of Edith Nawakwi. A banch of (failurers) failed politicians.
So these your associates have no value at all
Indigo is still swimming backwards, he can’t see anything in front, he is still admiring pangas machetes and guns in public
Stop lying.
Pulani B is the only hope for Lungu to not be held accountable for his crimes while he was in power.
Not for Zambians.
You can not have plans to better people’s lives that are secret.
Just look at the two people he is meeting!
Failed Plan B already.
What nightmare can it cause. He was in Kawambwa he drown together.
Come Petauke and Pambashe drowning.
Psychological Plan B.
And this is the man you want to give the Status of Statesmanship?
My foot!
Indigo, winter kabimba told you Lungu’s plan B. ” Sitting and crying”. Please understand Zambian politics! All those opposition political parties especially PF have no capacity to fight UPND! And your Lungu is just trying to save his face. They were beaten pants down in Kawambwa. And we feel for Lungu because all his children and family members are going to court because of unexplained wealth.
Ba Kalengo, it is “… They were beaten HANDS down” (meaning they were beaten with little or no effort at all).
“PANTS down” normally refers to a man caught in an adulterous situation.
What is Plan B?
Does anyone have any idea what he is talking about?
Whether Plan B or not please find people can easily attract voters not Kalaba and Nawakwi.
Lungu does not stop to amaze people, when he came to power he was asked to tell his vision for the nation, he said he had no vision, not even a plan leave alone the reign of terror. People were being arrested and some killed, cadres harassed people even in public or government offices, markets and bus stations. People were gassed and some lost their lives. But now he is urging people to focus on Plan B because Plan B is the only hope and alternative for Zambians. Which Zambias is he telling and where was that plan B during his reign? And what hope and alternative can people have in a plan which they don’t know? The people he is meeting and working in alliance with are all rejects, Zambians rejected them in 2021, apart from Lungu who managed to get 38+%, they all got below 1% each. So one can wonder how the same Zambians can have hope in the same people they rejected just over three years ago because nothing has changed. The only hope people have is Hakainde and believe you me, come 2026, they will give him another term to continue developing the nation. Right now Syrian war is over and with the coming back of Donald Trump, we hope the other senseless wars like Russia -Ukraine, Israeli-Gaza, Sudan, Yemen will quickly come to an end. Then oil prices will start going down and we shall start seeing the high cost of living coming down, of course with our hard work.
During his reign he failed to use plan A when all the machineries were in his hands,now he want to use plan B which is very far from plan A,these are kicks of a dying horse
Talk about what you can do for the country, not plan B to serve yourselves.
Let Dan Pule, Mwamba, Nakacinda, Lubinda, Nawakwi and Indigo Tyrol focus on Plan B because Plan B is the only hope and alternative for them and Edgar Lungu.
Ba mudala,iyo yeve ni beans,whether you use plan B C D etc you can not manage to win the 2026 and future elections,just heed to the right advices that the church and well meaning Zambians are giving you, retire and continue drinking kachasu and jemasons peacefully in your home comfort, petauke and pambashi by-elections will put you in the grave just wait for 10th February and prepare good drugs for your heart attack,you said you have studied the upnd tactics that is very good so that when you loose you don’t blame it on anyone
Mr. Lungu is the very definition of a hypocrite! Ati “I greet you all in the name of one Zambia one nation”. This is the man who did his level best to tear this nation asunder with his tribalism and regionalism.
He engaged Mr. Kambwili and provided him with a helicopter to facilitate the spreading of his poisonous message. Fortunately, Zambians are mature enough and rejected his divisive politics 2.8million to 1.8million.
In one breath, he pronounces himself as the Tonse approved presidential candidate for 2026 while maintaining that Tonse have not settled on a candidate.
This man doesnot care about our country all he is concerned with is his “akasaka ka ndalama” (money bag) and saving his thieving family from justice.
Those fraternising with him can be said to be of a similar disposition, Plunderers Inc.
Lungu came back from political retirement to, according to his words, “defend the pf party from extinction”. He said a lot of crap when he came back from retirement.
The question that begs has he managed to rescue the party? It’s a resounding NO!
He thought he had some level of control, only to find junior police officers blocking him.
Kamoyongo had a bitter test of the same. . . “I am your former minister!”.
Let it be known to Lungu that in their over 20 years in opposition, UPND has been made a much stronger political player.
If I were Lungu, I would tack my tail, retire from politics, and go and finish the fishing project he had started when he collapsed
is this the same guy that once said, “in 2021, I will handover power to myself” Lol.
Now He is panicking ‘coz Mundubile announce availability to stand on Tonse Alliance!
He keeps on telling everyone to use plan B yet no one knows this plan B , not even himself. They are in total darkness.
Lungu wants to save his family, period !!!!!!!???!!!
Iwe ka Chagwa, I am tired of educating journalists and you are not helping me. Put Causa if you use Dr. you did not study hard for the Dr so it is Causa In brackets or Mr Lungu. Same to all with honorary doctorates like HH, Kambwili, Kalaba, Nalumango, etc. Even Mr Mandela, Mr Mbeki, Mr Zuma, Mr Obama and Mr Clinton have honorary doctorates.
This lungu basterd of a CHIKALA should fix his corruption charges against his whole family first. This CHIKALA thinks that ZAMBIANS are stupid and forgetful for what he did.
Devil + corruption= LUNGU
