THE Patriotic Front (PF) has announced that it will hold a general conference before the end of the year.
Speaking at a media briefing following their Central Committee meeting, party secretary general Raphael Nakacinda said late President Edgar Lungu’s family will be updated on the stages of preparation for the conference.
He said a committee will be set up to spearhead the preparations, adding that the conference will be held as soon as possible.
“Let me emphasise, we will not delay the conference because we have work to do afterwards as we focus on the 2026 elections,” he said.
Mr Nakacinda further said the PF remains the biggest political party and will participate in the 2026 general election.
“We have also resolved to work with like-minded partners within the opposition family, those who believe that the UPND is inimical to the interests of this country. With such groups, we will cooperate, collaborate, and work together until we achieve the aspirations of the Zambian people,” he said.
Mr Nakacinda also announced that the Central Committee ratified various appointments aimed at enhancing preparations for the forthcoming general conference.

Makofi conference!
I think police will hold you responsible for unlawful assembly if Chabunga faction puts in a complaint, careful
Rebrand to a different party quickly, don’t waste time if you’re to participate in 2026 elections
Whose going to fund it? Your sponsor is dead!
Plan B, going to report ku chitumbi before the conference?
just make it before the end of 2026 because, first you have to fight each other, then you will have to form groups to support particular candidates, then you have to again fight and the survivors who will take the secretariate by force will again realize that after all PF is in Chabingas hands, they you will try to negotiate and realize that it isn’t working, then you will try to register another party which will face several road blocks and by the time you jump on to and existing party to ride on. The president of that party will give you difficult conditions which will further lead to the last fight, by then the elections would have been over.
