THE UPND ARE EXPERTS OF CORRUPTION- KALABA
… adds that President Hakainde Hichilema has turned against the youths who ushered him office.
LUSAKA, TUESDAY, DECEMBER 24, 2024 SMART EAGLES]
CITIZENS First President Harry Kalaba says Zambians are going through alot as a result of a vengeful leadership that is intent on making them suffer for having rejected the UPND and its leader for over 20 years.
Speaking at a media briefing in Lusaka today, Mr. Kalaba said just after the youths gave President Hichilema power, he has turned against them and would like to make them pay for the many years he was rejected.
He said this kind of leadership must be stopped in the next General election.
” I am therefore appealing to all the citizens within the reach of my voice to do everything within your means to ensure that you encourage at least 5 people to register as voters. Let us take advantage of the continuous voter registration exercise to ensure that we have as many people as possible registered as voters. we would also like to encourage you to start taking a keen interest in what is going on in the country and ensure that whenever there is a by election, encourage the people in that particular area to be vigilant and stop vote buying but more importantly encourage them to vote for an opposition candidate regardless of the party they belong to,” Mr. Kalaba said.
“It is also my hope that as opposition leaders we shall come together and ensure that we start fielding a single candidate in all the by elections. I would personally like to encourage voters to get whatever they give you, even if it is seeds, fertilizer or money, just get them but when it comes to voting, make sure you vote for an opposition candidate that will be supported by the Alliance given the opportunity to field the candidate,” he said.
And Mr. Kalaba said while many citizens had a lot of hope that the UPND was going to address corruption, it is sad to note that the current government has taken corruption to an even higher level to the extent that the UPND government is ranked the most corrupt government in Zambia’s 60 years history.
“This regime has made the previous government look like child-play in as far as corruption is concerned. At any given point the UPND leader while in opposition would castigate the PF government of being corrupt and that when he forms government he would deal decisive with corruption. Today, we are faced with worse off corruption than what we have seen under any previous government. We have seen rampant abuse of donor funds that has resulted in some partners pulling back on support and yet the rhetoric continues to grow louder. It is very clear that Zambia has been captured. The nation is experiencing state capture, the magnitude of which has never been known before and to continue with this kind of leadership beyond 2026 may lead to total bankruptcy of the country and at worst all the strategic assets will be owned by those close to the corridors of power,” he said.
“The UPND government is using the fight against corruption as a means of beating members of the opposition into submission and getting them to join the UPND in order to buy their freedom. This is not just abuse at its highest level but also goes to demonstrate clear lack of integrity. Opposition leaders with pending cases against them all of a sudden end up having their cases expunged upon crossing over to the UPND. It is therefore fair to assert that the UPND is using the power of incumbency to woe members regardless of their conduct of history,” Mr. Kalaba said.

Go to police with evidence instead of going to social media with nothing but rumours.
The Zambezi police force?
Vote wisely in 2026.
Ulimbwa sana iwe shiit
Your tribalism will eat you very soon together with your Defunct TuPF criminals
Vote wisely vote for HH7 in 2026/31
Waffling without substance. Tell u exactly how they are corrupt. Without factual evidence you are barking at yourselves. Ka noise fella.
Remember how Mmembe articulated the “matrix”. That was factual…people should not come here with empty noise, without substance.
Chikoya spoke factually today when he spoke at election malpractice. If the issue went to court, and the perpetrators are brought out. That is evidence that can not be disputed. Manje people come here with nkani mu mbobaand expect us to be swayed….
Tell us….
Kalaba find something to do. You are not a politician. You sound like a marketeer gossiping on things that have no facts and do not add up.do not put the sins of the PF on the UPND. They inherited a ramshackle..
With this calibre of current opposition ‘leaders’, I see HH competing against himself in 2026!
Uyo kalaba ala laba sana! When fake prophet told heim he will be president if he donates his life savings and resign from ministerial position. What did he do? Followed scammer’s instructions to the letter. Yes he is President for a three person party but he misunderstood the fake prophet thinking it was president for the country. He is trying to change the prophecy
I miss sata and HH on articulation on national issues the guys could predict the incoming problems within the cycle of government.In opposition sata managed to avail payslip for TANDIWE banda not what I see today from opposition party ni manyengo
We have the most useless opposition in this country and Kalaba is number 1 most useless! He can’t articulate anything sensible. His focus is on HH as a person. He has no alternatives to what HH is doing. He is pompous , arrogant and boastful. Him becoming a president is far fetched. He needs to come to Northern Western and offer us alternatives to what HH has done. Let him come and close Kalengwa mine, Kansanshi mine, Lumwana mine and all the things HH is doing. Kalaba must learn to provide checks and balances in a positive way and not annoy the majority of HH supporters. Let him go to Southern province and insult HH. Let him go Copperbelt and tell them about the Chibuluma road.
Kalaba is lunatic like kandasa. The little fellow is an empty vessel which makes the loudest noise. Always wanting to look grand but nothing to show for, but lies.
UKA pona nakabili mi 2026.
Kalaba should know that PF’s record is un beatable, it doesn’t matter how corrupt UPND can be, it can’t reach the PF levels. Imagine, Mwanawasa worked very hard and all the debt was cancelled through HIPC initiative but when PF thieves came which included Kalaba, everything Mwanawasa did was quickly undone. It was a big bonanza for them, they went on a stealing and borrowing spree. What followed next? The economy was totally run down and collapsed. The reckless borrowing PF government borrowed more than what was cancelled under HIPC. And all this happened within a short space of less than seven years, leaving the international community in total shock. This made the international creditors lose interest and appetite to forgive African governments especially sub Saharan ones. They saw that to forgive an African is to make him more lazy, more careless and more irresponsible, so they concluded that it is pointless to forgive an African because he enjoys suffering and is used to it. Imagine, someone borrows $5 billion, you cancel and forgive him today only for him to borrow $12 billion tomorrow. Is it worth forgiving such a person? Frankly speaking, had it not been the carelessness of PF, under Bally, Zambia’s creditors could have already cancelled our enormous debt which still stands at $14 billion, but they can’t because of the ugly past. We shall continue suffering for the foreseeable future because through PF, Zambia had committed an unforgivable sin to the international creditors. So it’s impossible for UPND to stamp out corruption of many years in just three years and to claim that UPND is very corrupt is in itself a confirmation that the previous government was more corrupt because it’s not possible for UPND or any government to become so corrupt within three years of its existence. PF will always be remembered for making corruption official in Zambia: ubomba mwibala alya mwibala.
