ZAMBIA WON’T BE SAVED BY A ‘MR FIX IT’ – M’MEMBE
Lusaka… Tuesday May 6, 2025 – In a statement issued earlier today, Dr. Fred M’membe, President of the Socialist Party, has urged Zambians across the country to reject the notion of political salvation through a single leader and instead embrace a collective path toward national transformation.
Dr. M’membe reminded citizens—from both urban centers and
rural communities—that the future of Zambia could not be secured by a lone political figure or a so-called “Mr Fix It.”
He emphasized that the country’s current challenges, which he attributed to the misrule of the UPND, were deeply rooted in systemic injustice, poverty, and inequality, and were therefore too complex to be addressed by any one individual.
He called for what he described as “collective genius,” stressing that true and lasting change would only emerge from the concerted efforts of ordinary citizens.
According to Dr. M’membe, the transformation of Zambia would require the active involvement of a united opposition, the labour movement, student unions, traditional leaders, and the church.
With the 2026 general elections on the horizon, Dr. M’membe urged Zambians to turn away from “the politics of personality cults” and to instead commit to principles of unity, accountability, and mass participation.
He called on citizens to rise with “clarity and purpose,” insisting that the power to change Zambia lay within the people themselves.
He concluded his message with a call for solidarity and collective resolve, reiterating his party’s commitment to building a just, humane, and democratic Zambia.
He wrote:
As we greet a new day, I wish to remind every Zambian—young and old, in the cities and in the villages—that the future of our great nation will not be redeemed by a single political genius or so-called “Mr Fix It.”
The challenges we face today under the misrule of the UPND are far too complex, far too rooted in injustice, poverty, and inequality to be solved by one person alone.
True and lasting change will come not from above, but from among us—from collective genius.
It will take the strength and wisdom of ordinary citizens, the courage of a united opposition, the voices of the labour movement and student unions, the moral leadership of our traditional leaders and the church.
Together, in solidarity, we can lay the foundation for a just, humane, and truly democratic Zambia.
As we prepare for the 2026 general elections, let us reject the politics of personality cults and embrace the politics of unity, accountability, and mass participation. We must stand as one—resolute, organised, and guided by principle.
Let us rise today with clarity and purpose, knowing that the power to change Zambia lies in all of us. Good morning!
In solidarity,
Fred M’membe
President of the Socialist Party
Mr Membe,we all know what you enjoy fixing
Aweee Mr. Mmembe there’s nothing like he is one man show here. The PRESIDENT is the torch carrier or bearer but he is not working alone he has got Ministers and support functional professional staff working with him and he is actuary fixing the mess that PF and you through your Post News Paper promoted and destroyed.
1. First and foremost you as Mmembe you targeted HH and UPND to be tribal party and you went on mountains announcing it to every Jim and Jack now today the person you thought won’t be President is now His Excillency the President of the sovereign State of the Republic of Zambia President HAKAINDE HICHILEMA. Zooms chikubaba, chilekukalipa but there’s nothing you can do Zambians gave him a sounding vote which saw Lungu trail with about one million eight hundred votes [1, 800,000++] ninshi yimwe not even a 100,000 votes mwalifye ukutali saanaaaa below 5% yabaaa. That was white wash. Clear lose. I can nikusukulu you can’t even be allowed to repeat because no sign iyawukopo.
☆ while your Post News Paper is no more gone forever.
2. It is a known fact that PF especially under Lungu destroyed the Country through;
● Corruption
● Reckless borrowing that left us with no space to breath and collapsing the economy into a pit thereby defaulting in 2020 [ failing to pay inkongole]
● PF Cadres under the leadership pf KASAKA KANDALAMA had so much power that they could even move with alot of stollen corrupt money and even burn it without anyone to apprehend or arrest them.
● PF Cadres had the audesty, power and Influency to even collect levies from marketeers and in bus stations and use it thereby denying the Councils Countrywide of the income for service delivery, payment to their workers and the national treasury at large.
● PF cadres had the power to insult, beat and at times kill ku KAMUGODI citizens and nothing happened to them. They even nicknamed themselves COMANDERS.
● PF cadres had even the power to silence POLICE OFFICERS and influence their transfers and loss of employment.
● and many more.
3. HH whom you hate too much is a darling of many youths and Zambians across the Country as he does his best by the grace of God to fix the economy, create more employment for our youthful population, work on the roads including the Lusaka Ndola dual carriage way, Revamp Mulungushi Textiles. Meal allowances in Public Universities for our children, more opportunities in businesses and general lively-hood. Mention them he is driving us to prosperity.
Today I was watching him doing what he line doing well meeting with IMF team exchanging notes. He was not alone but with his team in that sector., Minister of Finance and the team from the ministry, Bank of Zambia governor and his team etc. So what are you talking about to say one man show is this not BOZA UBUFI. Ba freddiiiiìiii. Your Post News Paper and your might Post courier fleet collapsed because of you pride and not paying tax to the Zambian government and you were humbled by your TONSE ASSOCIATES leader EDGAR AGWA LUNGU. He knows you and you know him. How you will work is inside your hearts but being who you are uwushelela, kaya chabe because Seon Tembo is alao watching
Speak the truth and it will set you free not every time ubufi CHIBIIIIII
And Zambia most certainly won’t be saved by an ass hole like you
You have been critical and hated him from the time you were born even before he was born. Nothing new here. You are his everlasting critic.
But certainly not you Mr Membe.You are a very very very very wrong man for the Job. You can be worse than Lungu.Just Forget.You could not pay tax let alone settling the loans you took…no man
Fred M’membe is one man whose decision-making has had little benefit from the high education he has acquired. He’s like the proverbial swimmer who mocks the crocodile while his butt is still in water. He read accounting during his undergraduate days at CBU. He knows the importance of paying tax to the state. When he was running The Post newspaper, it became very profitable in the early twenties. Instead of being up-to-date with statutory obligations, the business was not regularly paying its taxes to government. Despite being in this situation, M’membe was hypercritical of the PF government of Edgar Lungu. Just like the stupid swimmer and the crocodile, the ECL PF government saw its chance. How did M’membe get it so wrong?
And he wants to lecture us? Just arrogance
