UPND INSTITUTIONALIZING POVERTY MENTALITY

……it seems Zambians are not qualified to have wealth – Nakacinda

Lusaka….Monday, August 8, 2022 (Smart Eagles)

PF National Chairperson for Information and Publicity Raphael Nakacinda has accused UPND government of institutionalizing poverty in the country.

Hon Nakacinda said when he featured on Radio Icengelo yesterday that according to the New Dawn Government, it seems Zambians are not qualified to have wealth.

He said this is the reason people like Hon Joe Malanji are being marked for “destruction.”

“We know that we have a new government in place whose philosophy seems to tilt towards institutionalizing poverty mentality. Anybody that seems to have, as far as they are concerned, a black man, particularly a Zambian does not qualify to have wealth,” he said.

“And to have Malanji who is known in Kitwe for having been involved in business for so many years, them just coming to discover that he may own a few things around including what is rare in our jurisdiction, somebody buying private planes, it seems like those who harbor poverty mentality, is one of those marked that they have to destroy.”

Commenting on the nullification of Hon Malanji’s election as the Kwacha MP, Hon Nakacinda bemoaned the judgment.

He described it as injustice on Zambians.

“Diggers has described it as one of the scandalous judgement ever past by highest court of the land. Because of that injustice, we felt that the injustice is not just caused to one individual, in this case Hon Malanji. But it is an injustice to the people of Kwacha. We felt it is also an injustice to the people of Zambia because by this reckless ruling, we are going to subject a tax payer to an unnecessary expense in Kwacha Constituency through this by election,” he said.

“And you know that by elections cost colossal sums of money. And today as a country, at a time that we are still grappling with challenges that have come as a result of the new dawn government, we are now going to be subjected to such unwarranted election that was never expected.”
