How many PF factions are there and How many Tonse Alliances are there…
Which One’s are Legitimate….
I am.just asking for a Friend who is Now Confused….
Opposition full of drama everyday. They know they can’t unseat UPND but they can’t just admit or accept until after 13 th August, 2026.
Just watching now.
Curious, how Mundubile will respond to think, does he still have the gats to proceed on riding on the ECL movement and stand for Tonse chairmanship due over the weekend?
If he pulled out, he will be a coward, and if he went aheard, doesnt seem to have much politocal support, cause even KBF, doesnt support him.
How he pulls out this one, will determine Mundubile’s future.
