UPND CADRES IN NAKONDE REACT AGAINST DC APPOINTMENT
The appointment of Marvelous Sikapizye as Nakonde District Commissioner has ripped after United Party for National Development (UPND) cadres protested against the appointment.
The youths who swamped the District UPND secretariat’s office to air their grievance demanded that there is need to appoint a party centered individual alleging that Sikapizye is linked to the opposition PF.
Alinani Siame who spoke for the youths demanded that President Hakainde Hichilema reconsiders the appointment of Mr. Sikapizye and replace him with different person as Nakonde DC.
Meanwhile, UPND leadership in Nakonde district has defended Marvelous Sikapizye’s appointment as District Commissioner.
But UPND District Secretary, Bowas Chimbinga has urged the cadres not to undermine the appointing authority of President Hakainde Hichilema.
Mr. Chimbanga has told Nakonde radio FM news that Sikapizye is the right man for job, referring to him as a wise and intelligent man who is up to the task of coordinating activities in the district.
