THE IMINGALATO HICHILEMA WAS TALKING ABOUT ARE REAL ON THE GROUND – MWENDA
…as he castigates the UPND for their continued vote stealing in the artificial by elections that the ruling party wants to use to register its presence on the northern part of Zambia
Lusaka.. Tuesday, February 20, 2024 ( Smart Eagles)
Socialist Party (SP) Chairperson for Elections Trymore Mwenda has continued exposing the power hungry UPND party’s vote stealing tendencies in these by elections they have continued creating.
Speaking during a briefing today, Mr Mwenda disclosed that SP knows the ruling UPND is attempting to kill democracy.
He however assured Zambians that the so called new dawn will not manage to do so as even parties which reign before UPND that tried to kill democracy failed to succeed.
“Regular elections are the bedrock of democracy. So if we are going to talk about democracy, we need these regular elections all the time. It is for this reason that Zambians, in 1991 chose multi-democracy as opposed to one party state governance,” he said.
“We know that the UPND will try to kill democracy, but we know that the Zambian people will not accept and agree. We’ve had so many powerful political parties before UPND that tried to kill democracy and they all failed. And we know what happened and how we are surviving today. The UPND appear to be winning by elections today… but we know that their victories are short-lived because the time for reckoning is coming and its coming very soon.”
Speaking to issues surrounding the just ended Kayo Ward by-elections which the UPND successfully stole, Mr Mwenda described what transpired in the ward as unfortunate.
He said the imingalato that President Hakainde Hichilema once told Zambians about are real on the ground.
“It is unfortunate what happened in Kayo ward in Mwansabombwe constituency in Luapula province. The election was stolen from the good people of Kayo Ward. The election was stolen by the UPND,” he said.
“We know when President Hakainde Hichilema talked about Mingalato, others thought that the President was joking. Imingalato is real on the ground. In Kayo Ward by elections, there was a lot of corruption.”
He recalled that a lot of ministers, using tax payers’ money and vehicles were in the ward, to ensure that the vote buying goes smoothly.
“A lot of ministers were using government vehicles, government funds to corrupt the good people of Kayo Ward. The by election in Kayo Ward was mugged with violence. Many times, the UPND cadres attached the Socialist camps. We survived because of the support of the good people of Kayo Ward. Kayo Ward is one of the smallest Wards that we have in this country,” he said.
He implored the Electoral Commission of Zambia to ensure that the playing field is leveled.
Mr Mwenda said the only way Zambia could be saved is if SP gets into power. He also disclosed that the party will participate in all the forthcoming by-elections.
Just accept reality that you are nonentities, unknown, useless and unwanted. STUPID IDIOTS
When ex-President Edgar Lungu once said: I WILL FALL ON YOU LIKE A HEAP OF BUILDING BLOCKS, you simply cheered and clapped for him. Now President HH similarly uses the word “Mingalato”, you condemn him! what kind of foolishness and stupidity is this!!!!??
Just accept defeat naimwe dont waist our time reading this long baseless article, if the upnd are stealing why not reporting them with the evidence of violence videos that you have,it is surprising to hear these small ntemba parties complaining when they know for sure that they don’t have people on the ground to make them win elections, go to college and learn on how to do politics not just hallucinating and barking like small dogs on a mother’s shelter
