PF IN KAWAMBWA VOWS TO SUPPORT UPND CANDIDATE
Kawambwa/ Wednesday, 23 October
The Patriotic Front (PF) in Kawambwa has pledged its support for the United Party for National Development (UPND) candidate, Musa Titus, ahead of the upcoming council by-election.
During a campaign rally held in Kawambwa this afternoon, Chewe Siwale, the former Patriotic Front Kawambwa Constituency Chairperson, expressed his dissatisfaction with the state of his former party.
He stated that he could no longer bear the failures of the PF, which he described as being in disarray and lacking direction.
“My party is disorganized because so far it has over four presidents, and this has left me with no option but to seek a more organized political party. UPND is the only party that looks intact,” Siwale said.
Siwale further revealed that he turned down an offer from the Socialist Party, choosing instead to support the UPND due to his belief in its vision and leadership.
He highlighted the positive impact of President Hichilema’s policies, especially in driving economic transformation. “President Hichilema’s good policies are showing positivity in terms of economic transformation,” he added.
The former PF chairperson praised the improvements Kawambwa has experienced under the UPND government, especially through the Constituency Development Fund (CDF). “We have started seeing things we never saw here in Kawambwa because, since the coming of President Hichilema, CDF is doing wonders here,” Siwale stated.
Siwale affirmed his full backing for the UPND, stating that he, along with his family and those who were under his leadership in the constituency, would throw their support behind the ruling party. “Patriotic Front is a finished party, and we cannot continue pretending. We just need to go forward,” he emphasized.
As the by-election approaches, the UPND campaign in Kawambwa has gained momentum, with victory anticipated for Musa Titus.
The UPND campaign team in Kawambwa includes Minister of Small and Medium Enterprises Hon. Elias Mubanga, Minister of Youth, Sports, and Arts Hon. Elvis Nkandu, who serves as Mobilization Chairperson, and Minister of Livestock and Fisheries Hon. Peter Kapala.
Other notable figures include Minister of Commerce, Trade, and Industry Hon. Chipoka Mulenga, Minister of Transport and Logistics Hon. Frank Tayali, and Kafubu MP Bernard Kanengo, who have joined forces to drum up support for the UPND candidate.
The UPND delegation is currently in Kawambwa, campaigning for Musa Titus ahead of the highly anticipated council by-election scheduled for 27th October 2024.
