ROUTE RECALCULATED – PAUL MOONGA RETURNS TO UPND
……….Cites HH’s Progressive Policies
After what seems like a scenic tour through Zambia’s major political parties, Former Patriotic Front (PF) and Socialist Party (SP) Central Committee Member, Paul Moonga, has rejoined the ruling United Party for National Development (UPND), marking yet another shift in his political journey.
Speaking at a media briefing in Lusaka on Friday, Moonga said he decided to return to UPND because of President Hakainde Hichilema’s impressive policies, including free education and the increased Constituency Development Fund (CDF).

“I have made this decision because I believe in President Hichilema’s vision for Zambia. Initiatives like free education and the CDF increment are making a real impact on the ground,” he said.
Moonga’s political map has seen several recalculations: once a staunch UPND member, he abandoned the party in April 2015 to join the then-ruling PF. After PF lost power in 2021, he shifted allegiance to the Socialist Party. Now, in 2025, he’s circled back to UPND, calling it “home.”
“There is too much bickering and witch-hunting in the opposition. I am not part of that which is why I am here today,” he added.
He also revealed that he left the Socialist Party due to its lack of inclusiveness and internal structure.

With this latest move, Moonga reaffirms his status as one of Zambia’s most consistent political turncoats, Consistently inconsistent.
Meanwhile, Socialist Party leader Dr. Fred M’membe posted “We wish Mr Paul Moonga, who has rejoined the UPND, well in his political future”.
We thank him for the period he spent with us.

Plant rotation farming. Maize, Fingermillet, ground nuts then back to Maize.
Next rotation?
Paul Moonga the great. I remember how he was choked by the 2021 election results at Mulungushi International Conference Centre. The Man had to find solace in deep Alcohol and what a scene he acted with Zambia Army. This Cousin of mine has now denied me a repeat of this DRAMA in 2026. Am not happy at all for I really relished a heightened 2026 Omnibus.. Now look what you have done Cousin Paul Moonga sure.
Insala yamubwesha!
Kasongo yeye… mobali na ngai…
Hehehehe
At this rate, “Why Me” will soon be joining UPND because of HH’s good policies and the UPND will roll out the red carpet to welcome him.
I donot subscribe to the notion that “politics is a game of numbers”. Rather, quality is of the essence. Mr. Moonga is chaff. Totally devoid of principles.
The time Paul Moonga left we won the elections, and now that he has come back. I don’t what this means?
PM the great! He leaves the man he describes as the most educated in Africa, for the man he despises so much. That is being a great politicians, Zambian standards mind you, and Mr. Mwaliteta is elated.
Good move Paul Moonga
Zambian politicians who change political parties are spies, they are plants. Never trust them.
