NCP SAYS PF’S REMOVAL FROM TONSE ALLIANCE DISHONORS ECL’S LEGACY

By Joseph Kaputula

The New Congress Party –NCP- says the Tonse Alliance’s decision to derecognize the Patriotic Front –PF- as a partner has dishonored late former President Edgar Lungu’s legacy.

Yesterday, the Tonse Alliance through its interim chairperson Professor Danny Pule announced that it will no longer recognize the PF as a partner, but will instead work with the Edgar Lungu Political Movement.

But addressing the media in Lusaka this morning, NCP president Peter Chanda says Mr. Lungu’s political will designated the NCP as a special purpose vehicle, with the PF as the anchor party.

Mr. Chanda has questioned the Tonse Alliance’s loyalty to Mr. Lungu, saying they are going against his wishes.

He says the move by Tonse has vindicated him from accusations of having ill intentions against the PF leadership.

And Mr. Chanda says his party is a stable opposition party with no internal conflicts, positioning it as a viable alternative to the UPND.
