THE ECONOMY IS COLLAPSING
The economy of our country has collapsed but our rulers want to pretend that all is well, that it’s just sabotage but business as usual.
They don’t even want to talk about the collapsing economy. They are occupying themselves with petty things that really don’t matter. They can try to evade this reality, but they will not be able to evade the consequences of evading this reality.
They are busy trying imingalatos on their opponents. But a sensible leader is not motivated by the desire to annihilate others, but by the desire to solve problems and make life better for his people.
It’s very clear that our rulers are failing to reason, to think. Probably we are expecting too much from them. Reason is not automatic. And those who deny it cannot be conquered by it. We shouldn’t count on them to address this problem and make things better.
Everyone can see that our economy has collapsed. It can’t be concealed. The hardest thing to explain is the glaringly evident which everybody had decided not to see or acknowledge.
We have no alternative but to push them aside and usher in a new leadership in August 2026.
Fred M’membe
President of Socialist Party and People’s Pact Presidential Candidate


A Membe basushi- that’s all I need to say!
Sounds like this man is always dreaming, we’re not saying everything is perfect, but indication is that we’re better of after the pf debt default, thuggery, violence, misrule rampant consumption etc etc
This M’membe has just come back from Cuba where the economy has totally collapsed. There are severe protests going on right now and instead of sympathizing with the Cuban people, he is taking about the Zambian economy collapsing. I think he needs some mental check up.
If you could not manage your businesses and paying tax how are you going to manage the country.Membe is mentally growing old and physically challenged.Soon you will 70yrs sir yet you cant still not get it.Zambians are not ready for Socialism.Its just in your dreams.
This man was disoriented; he mistook Zambia for Havana.
I don’t think his brain is functioning well; dementia is slowly kicking in.
Yes, he has fallen in love with police cells. Thats where he finds real men. He comes out deliciously dazed and cannot wait for the next dose
What is Fred talking about? The economy has collapsed elsewhere perhaps in Cuba where he apparently recently visited. Not in Zambia.
And he thinks that that new leader should be him or
Dr. M’membe does not make sense anymore. Nowhere in his article does he talk about how whatever new leadership emerges is going to revive the “collapsed” economy. Mere change of leadership is not going to solve the challenges the country faces.
It is clear that the opposition have no workable solutions and voting any one of them into power will only make the situation worse. All Dr. M’membe and his ilk are interested in is to access the national treasury and loot.
The current regime has at least shown financial discipline and tried hard to get us out of the economic pit that PF dug us into.
As things stand, my vote is on HH and UPND.
