This is the job of the chiefs. To reject ill intentions of any government of the day. The chiefs in Eastern, Northern, copperbelt, Lusaka, central, muchinga, luapula and North Western will reject this constitutional amendment. They all know it belongs in a pit latrine. LAZ, NGOs, and all Churches, except SDA have already rejected it. Why does Hakainde like forcing things? Fyonse yena kupatikisha. Ulunkonena too much this chap. Awe, we have never ever seen such a troubled soul before, and after next year, we will never see it again. Thank God for that.
REJECT TRIBALISM, CORRUPTION AND OPPRESSION.
VOTE FOR CHANGE IN 2026.
In Democracy, we don’t work with 100% in any issue, we work with two third majority. There is no subject in this world that people will support 100%, never, but as long as the majority support it, then the mandate is given. Even in his Chiefdom, not all the subjects like him, there are some things they don’t like about him and it’s normal, that’s how life is. As long as many Chiefs have accepted and participated, there is no harm even if the few reject it.
