He stressed the need to instead judge Tembo based on his performance and achievements in the roles he has been entrusted with before.
” Mr. Tembo should not be judged for the loss, PF suffered during the previous general elections because it will not work”, he said
And Lubinda explained that having been legislator for the constituency where Tembo grew up and having closely worked with him under the then party in Government when he served as National Coordinator for the Presidential Empowerment Initiative Fund (PEIF), he has seen Tembo mature politically saying he is now ready to serve the people of Kabwata.
“I can vouch for Clement Tembo because I have seen him mature politically and can bear witness for his involvement in community service for not only the people of Kabwata but other constituencies within and outside Lusaka and now Mr. Tembo is ripe for a parliamentary seat”, Lubinda said
Meanwhile, Lubinda has appealed to the electorates to vote for Tembo because he is now politically mature and versatile with vast his experience in community service.
He has urged Zambians in Kabwata constituency not to replace the late M’kandawire with a novice who does not even know the role of an MP because it will delay developmental projects in the constituency.
“Kabwata people should not vote for a novice” he said
