By Mubanga Mubanga
The Movement for National Renewal (MNR) has expressed concerns over what they have termed widespread operational, logistical and administrative challenges in the ongoing voter registration by the Electoral Commission of Zambia (ECZ)
In a statement issued yesterday on behalf of MNR, a movement he recently unveiled, renowned lawyer John Sangwa stated that such disorganisation by ECZ could fuel perceptions that the Commission was “incompetent”
“However, the Movement for National Renewal (MNR) expresses deep concern over widespread operational, logistical, and administrative challenges that threaten to disenfranchise citizens and erode public confidence in the integrity of this crucial national exercise. 1.

Spreading false information is actionable. Registration of voters is being done countrywide.
Really? This is why you will get removed from power, one way or the other. You can not just be supporting nonsense just because it is coming from your tribesman.

REJECT TRIBALISM, CORRUPTION AND OPPRESSION.
VOTE FOR CHANGE IN 2026.
PF tried this strategy of disadvantaging UPND strongholds by putting up all sorts of impediments in the registration process. It didn’t work. They got a thorough beating. So if UPND are using the same tactics, they will meet the same fate as long as people have made up their mind to vote them out.
Relax ba Sangwa. No amount of rigging can save a regime when people make up their mind that it is time for change. The PF put in everything including arming the police with all kinds of weapons and riot vehicles. It didnot save them.
