The UPND Zambia United tour continued it’s campaign trail in Northern and Luapula Provinces.

UPND president Hakainde Hichilema, the Honourable Felix Mutati, UPND National Chairperson Mutale Nalumango and entourage reached Mpulungu, where residents had waited even as it grew dark.

This morning the team spent time in Sumbu for another rally, before moving on to Kaputa where another rally followed and Mr Hichilema was honoured with a meeting with Chieftainess Kaputa.

Mr.Hichilema reiterated that job creation, especially for the youths, will be one of UPND’s main priorities in government. Mr.Hichilema said he believes that every young Zambian should have the chance to succeed and that youth empowerment can be the engine of the economic development of our country.

He said there is nothing more demotivating and frustrating than for the young, energetic, and educated to have no opportunity to earn a decent living. Yet this is the current reality for many of the youths in Zambia today. Mr.Hichilema said this wasted potential is a loss to us all. It is a loss to Zambia.

Mr Hichilema said there are ways in which government can support young entrepreneurs and business people so they can set up their own ventures. He said UPND will endeavour to replicate some of the best practices that have been initiated in some countries such as Kenya where the government has instituted policies to procure goods and services from youth-owned businesses. The goal should be to create an army of entrepreneurs who will be able to drive the economy and even create more jobs for fellow youths.

Tomorrow the Campaign moves on to Mwansabombwe, Nchelenge, Kawambwa and Mporokoso. Rallies in Chinsali, Mpika, Kasama and Luwingu are planned for the weekend.

    • Zambia acts like a market places where people just go to make money and go back to there homes in the evening leaving the place more dirty than it was with the waste products, we need a president who thinks Zambia can manufacture certain things and stop importing most of the things,
      EL has that vision.

    • Akainde Ichilema must be genetically so naive to even dream of governing our great country.

      Do Zambians look like cows? Absolutely not!!

      Let him clear the dust for EL

    • Twaisa bane! Mutende ku mfumu nakulibonse bamunyinane. UPND – twende pamo! Welcome Haleisa Haleisa nomba aisa bululu wesu uwaletulandiko ilintu twa chulile kuli bakateka batusha! Welcome HH naiwe uli mwana wesu nga fye balya abapamushili pantu ubutungwa twalipoka.

      Luapula ni HH
      Northern province ni HH
      Muchinga twati naimwe iseni
      Zambia yonse fye ni HH

      Epo twapelela mukwayi.

    • EL cant win, he is not know by the masses, i was in my village in Luapula last weekend and people don’t know who Lungu is…. HH is more famous than EL….PF is dead

    • 1.5 Translated

      We have arrived brothers and sisters. Peace be upon you fellow countrymen. UPND – Lets go together in harmony. Welcome Haleisa Haleisa. Finally, our son has arrived, the one who stood up for us during the persecution we suffered at the hands of our leader who departed.! Welcome HH! You too are our own like the ones born on this soil you stand on for we have already been liberated!

      Luapula it’s HH
      Northern province it’s HH
      Muchinga you too can join the fun
      Zambia – the entire country it’s HH

      We humbly rest our case.

    • Tu PF are green with envy. While your Lungu went to bed with Mugabe, HH is making in roads in Northern province. How can a normal leader seek help from finished stupid Mugabe? Mugabe ‘s rigging formula wont work at all in Zambia. Mugabe ‘s meeting with Lungu has just worsened PF’s chances.

      So PF and Lungu wants to turn Zambia into Zimbabwe. Its another failed project.

      Finally northern province has said yes to UPND and HH. Just look at the crowds, willingly attending his rallies using their own means of transport.

      Viva HH and UPND.

    • You tribalist stop putting your dirty mind into people’s heads. It does not matter whether HH or EL wins. You do not even stay in Zambia you are still backward. We are tied of people who do not want to move forward ever stuck in the past. Let those in Zambia decide who they want. I am sure I would love a president who does not attach himself with crooks. People of Zambia vote wisely

    • Your EL is inept, incompetent and dull what can he do for the country? What has he achieved in his life to prove that he is capable of doing the same for the country. Be objective and think with head instead of the heart. Mr. Lungu is a failure.

    • What are you talking about??????????

      Over 90% of the businesses in Zambia are owned by foreigners
      Over 70% of the commercial land is in the hands of foreigners
      Most of the constructions going on is by foreigners
      Most of the road contractors are foreigners
      Most of the new plots are owned by foreigners
      Just go to the shopping malls 90% foreigners
      Form Government own firms are now run by foreigners
      Salaula is controlled by foreigners
      Home shops are mainly owned by foreigners

      ALL THIS IN THE TIME OF MMD AND PF
      and these keep growning

      SO WHAT ARE YOU TALKING ABOUT

      WE NEED A ZAMBIA FOR ZAMBIAS

      ONE ZAMBIA UNITED
      VIVA HH 2015

    • It is good that he is trying hard to win support. Its sad the time is too short to change some peoples minds. But its worth trying even though its not guaranteed. The poling station booth can be do tricky to presidential aspirants at times eh! Be reasonable of what results you expect..

    • Zambian eye opinion poll places HH ahead of lungu, with 57.7% and 32% respectively. HH has a slight lead of 20% over Lungu.

      Caution must be exercised though, because the exact period over which poll was conducted is unknown.

    • Chief analyser; you are shockingly dull to say the least. Your argument shows that you have now run out of ideas how to pull down the fight HH.

    • Your EL is a Malawan. Lol! Cant you see that he is dressing like acimwene Kamuzu Banda! HH is the man. Wake up my brother. Do not have the fear of the unknown. And please my brother do not allow tribal sentiments to mislead you. You people will be shocked of the votes HH will have from Luapula and Northern this time around. He may not lead but will reduce on you numbers drastically. Micheal was Micheal. the earlier you woke up and begun to face the reality the better. We have not yet started going into the compounds in lsk and Copala. Iyi yena Lesa Mukulu Uushaalubile napala. HH to redeem Zambia from the misrule of PF. And please advise those thugs that they are de-campaigning EL by their violence. There are always rational voters who are disgusted by such behavior.

    • LET NOT HH AND HIS PEOPLE FOOL US BY SAYING. UPND – Lets go together in harmony. Welcome Haleisa Haleisa. Finally, our son has arrived, the one who stood up for us during the persecution we suffered at the hands of our leader who departed. IS BUILDING OF ROBERT MAKASA UNIVERSITY, INCREASING OF SALARY OF POLICE OFFICERS FROM K1500.00 TO K4500.00 persecution

      Luapula it’s HH
      Northern province it’s HH
      Muchinga you too can join the fun
      Entire country it’s HH

      BUT HE COMPLAINED OF DEVELOPMENTAL PROJECT IN THIS PROVINCES THAT SATA IS TAKING MONEY FROM NORTH WESTERN TO DEVELOP NORTHERN PART OF COUNTRY. CAN HE DEVELOP THESE PROVINCES, NOOOO! BE CARE OFTHEY ARE JUST MISUSING ‘DON’T KUBEBA’ Just continue with PF because they have program and vision for the whole nation.

  1. HH is the man!!, When Edgar is busy visiting Mugabe begging for money, HH is busy campaigning.

    20th Jan, we are kicking PF out of office and they will never rule Zambia.

    • How many rallies did Vodka Lungu do so far? 2.
      Kitwe- A flop, he had to stand at a oil drum to for rallie.
      Mansa- A Flop, people kept shouting “volume volume”, they couldn’t hear anything, probably he was tired from the Kitwe rally.

    • Like Sata used to tell RB that he is busy flying around while I am pounding him on the ground. Mugabe has no influence in Zambia. Infact he is the most detested SADC President in Zambia. Who would want to be subjected to the quandary that Zimbabweans are subjected to. In fact it was a mistake to embrace Mugabe at this time. Even Sata embraced him after becoming President. Ba Lungu the International Community will start shunning you. Who is misguiding EL kanshi mwebantu?. Anyway continue with your Mugabe as HH continues to pound you on the ground. You have no vision of your own and now Mugabe is your Consultant what a miscalculation. Every Lusaka residents know that we have economic refugees from Zimbabwe in our compounds. Is that the man to go to bed with? Bwafya sana!

  2. Bravo LT fair coverage . Not ZWD kubufi bapena.

    Good lucky HH ,Good lucky EL . It is your mother Zambia and you are free to solicit for votes from every corner of our land

    • That is the message thank you I have found a true person who knows their limits. Let people of Zambia vote wisely. You foreigners stop interfering with courageous Zambians at work. You are abroad and stay put. Go HH go EL.

    • that is the spirit. No insults but a realization that at the end of the day, we are all Zambians. May the best candidate win.

  3. @Chief Analyser.

    One can seem to raise three good reasons to vote for EL other than his humility.

    Can someone convince me why I should vote for HH? Please stick to the deliverables for the ordinary Zambian. I am not interested in his wealth or tribe.

    • @OneZed, no one will answer your question becoz even his suppoters dont kno why they support him, some try to say becoz UPND is a peaciful party,thats the reason they have at the moment, that reason shakes my head.

    • Perhaps you need an interpreter, because HH`s message on how he is going to fix the problem of youth unemployment is very simple and clear.

    • “One can seem” does not imply “one has.”

      EL was an obscure figure until we all sympathized with him for being fired by Scott. Like his former boss, he does not have a plan for his first day of work in office. Ask him!

      Dude is yet to present a simple economic policy. Ati ba nzelu banacokela ku mawa. Hehehe! Nditu kaleza, kunasala cabe vipuba! One are looking at one of them.

    • @Chief Analyser.
      Here is the answer. Assume you own a company and you are employing somebody to run your company. You will surely look at the CVs of the applicants and you will pick somebody with a track record. So please look at the CVs of EL and HH and be honest with yourself as to who is a better person to rule Zambia.

  4. HH/Mutati and Nalumango, the potential in this great part of Zambia needs to unlocked in order to improve people’s livelihoods. Northern Zambia has comparative advantage in being closer to the port of Dar. Improve production of high demand pulses and Livestock for export to the middle East, India and China.

    • For your own information Mutati has done nothing for Lunte he does not need to fool Zambians.Wake Zambians do not vote for those who have no heart for this country where are they getting money to Champlain and yet people they are trying to persuade are leaving in poverty.HH has no heart for Zambia unless you are blind.

    • Webo Pa Bwato and everyone who cares to learn, it is not the responsibility of the MP to develop a constituency. Find a youtube video where Sampa outlines the order of action for addressing developmental issues and other matters.

      MPs are law makers!

      Developing an area is the responsibility of a provincial minister or indeed the minister responsible for a particular developmental program. Efyo baleibila. Mulabalekelela umulandu no bukopo.

      Muleipusha nga tamwaishiba.

  5. Great message, HH at his best!!

    My advise to his campaign team is that HH should constantly repeat (over and over, and over—–) his message on how he is going to tackle youth unemployment in Zambia.

    To fix the youth unemployment problem in Zambia, the country needs a leader with top entrepreneurial skills or at least an understanding of it, and right now, there is no better person than HH in Zambia.

    • Three “good” reasons why you should vote for EL:
      1. Absolutely clueless as to the matters of policy;
      2. Certified embezzler and
      3. Jack of all trades, master of none.

      If you want, there are another 100’s reasons.

    • Perhaps:

      1) He makes a fine vodka tonic.
      2) Also makes a great screwdriver.
      3) His bloody Mary is beyond belief.

      Not to mention:

      4) Has same “plan” as the last guy.

  6. This chap will get retired come 2016. Just getting votes from his tribesmen in Southern province won`t be enough. Team Lungu is the way to go !!

    • The only reason for you not to vote for HH is because of your hatred for Tongas. Unfortunately, you are one of those that think Bembas should naturally not like Tongas and Lozis. Very backwards. True Bembas don’t agree with you. You are so ashamed to identify yourself with your tribe which is not Bemba but want to hide behind innocent Bembas. That’s why your whole clan is cursed to perpetual poverty.

    • You are the one who is the traibalist baba………grow up and change with times. Wabe bolo chikala…….why were you not telling your late chief tribalism Sata that?

    • Yes, Python!

      Let’s begin flashing out these id!ots fostering unnecessary hatred. Mwefinangwa mwe, don’t hide against Bembas, stop lying against Tongas, stop lying against Lozis. Zambia niyatu bonse!

      Why does tribalism sharpen its ugly teeth only during elections?? Wenye!

    • It is a pity that you would rather choose a clueless drunkard(EL). With such citizens Zambia is not only a tragedy but also a disaster.

    • @Pytho and Sattish

      Count me in – Let’s stop this rot about tribe. Anyone that plays the tribal card should be ridiculed and shunned.

      And thank you python for making it clear that these faux-Bembas or commercial Bembas are not the real deal.

      We, aba Bemba nkonko twali cindama, na amano saana! Just look at the pronouncements of our kanabesa for example.

      And just how has the ordinary Bemba person unrelated to the ruling class benefited from PF rule? Not in any way at all! We have in fact been insulted and deeply hurt at the disrespect to our chiefdom. Give us a break guys. We are all in this together!

  7. HH is wasting his time,energy and money in northern regions!even those few people attending his rallies are only going there bcoz there is nothing to do in many rural areas!his 2 400 votes from Northern and 1 700 in Luapula which he got in 2011 may even go down,mark my words!people there love PF too much that even if u adopt a dog on PF,they’ll still vote for it!they just put x on PF’s log and colour minus looking at a person on it!this is how people love PF in its strongholds!

  8. “there are ways in which governement can support young entrepreneurs” what a useless liar this privatization thief! no vision, no mission. just empty words like a hungry cow on a farm. I’m sure even Choma won’t vote for him this time around

    • even his cadres have become mentally impotent after being fed for years on gallons of fermenting milk. How can the brain of such an individual function normally? Mr. Mabisi, after spending your millions on campaigns you will realize that politics is for strong leaders, powerful orators, men of substance and charisma, men who sway the crowds. not a backyard cattle rustling clown like this primitive ape (HH)

    • I thought I told you to collect your crickybones, pack them together with your skull back to embassy park and slide back your pauper’s grave. You are dead and your job is to be sentry to your departed king! Tell me exactly which part of you’re DEAD you don’t understand and I will nail onto your tombstone!

    • Apparently you are still poorer than he is in more ways than one. If you are that smart, you have a vision, you have a mission, and have potent words, why are you not throwing your hat in the race. Show us what you got, kaili!

      You are all hat, but no cattle. Yah!

    • @Kudos

      Iye uluse ! All your plans to de-campaign HH have been thrown in the bin and rotting.

      Its not too late mune, the fight HH2015 still has space left. Don’t leave it till last minute ukalila chimayo mayo.

  9. You can say whatever.

    Flight HH 2015 about to land in state house.

    He is the only future president with a vision come 2015, vote wisely.

  10. There are no grounds to support PF and the Mugabe thing just confirms it. Zambia will not go the way of Zimbabwe.

    RB is in the wrong timeframe. This is 2014 not 2004 or 1994.

    On grounds of policy, vision and management of the party, HH is the better candidate. I shall from now on campaign for HH online. I welcome any challenger to make a better case other than just shouting a candidates name but bring no points.

    Viva HH, Zambia United, One Zed!!

  11. @Gen
    You will be shocked my friend,because Zambians this time around will not succumb to your donchi kubeba. What is there in PF to be proud of as a country? Violence and lawlessness has become the helplessness of our nation and people like you Gen should be treated as enemies of the state,and sent into excel in zim where violence is accepted as normal if it serves Robert Mugabe’s interest,,,no wonder your leaders are trekking to zim to learn abt violence

  12. At least today they did not insult wiser leaders among the contestants. RB is the preferred presidential candidate for me, my family, cousins, and retirees. Looking at pictures, one can see that it is long zoom (zoom out) picture to spreadout thin attendance. There might not be more than 400 people in the rally.

  13. I am in campain mode, so I am humming a song: “bena Zambia seni tuvotele Hakainde Hichilema. Ngatwavotela HH chalo chesu chalaya #pantanshi.”

  14. Ths embecile cnt b president over my dead body.Election results example lupososhi,pf 18000,upnd 678,choma central upnd 12589 pf 9456 oredy namulusa mwe ngombe iwe!

    • Yes over your dead body. You will die before the end of this year and elections are next year. What with your unprecedented high levels of mental and physical poverty!

    • We want you alive. Cross over to the winning side. We can use your hands. Our country needs a lot of help from our own people. So, brother/sister, don’t die please. Come home and help develop your Zambia! We need you alive. Don’t die!

    • Since you hate cows so much, you must eat musalu/vegetables every day, you poor common man. Poverty can look like a lifetime inheritance.

    • Yes he (HH) will be president over your dead body. You have said it and it will come to pass. Come 21st January 2015 we will be celebrating.Fortunately you will be saved the pain because you will be on the other side.

  15. @gen n #kudos
    You are not patriots,you only know insults and ridicule at hh,whatever reasons you have normal people cant see it.Tribal hatred is not the way to go guys its cheap and outdated and everyone can see it in your daily blogs.

  16. the man carries a strong stench of cow dang and manure. with all the heat and flies hovering around you can’t stand in that crowd! thats the type of shenanigans some people want to take to state house. look at the way he’s abusing cheap prostitutes like Lunte Mp mutati, parading their finished scaly skins in front of the masses shamelessly. Maureen has even jumped on a losing band wagon, poor choice she will live to regret. by that time the rustler will be at the farm polygamizing

    • @kudos! pa last! Bali kunyengela noko cha cha wiso. Sorry fellow bloggers but this guy has got right under my skin but a flint needs another flint in order to spark!

    • @kudos: to use your PFoolish language, you are choking with bitterness because you are condemned to eat dry vegetables everyday for the rest of your life. Instead of applauding those having steaks, you are groveling in your extreme poverty. That’s why you hate cattle. Admit it – you are broke! Please continue with your poor life choice.

    • Please One Hit Wonder, forgive Kudos, he is a victim of being anally abused by his father, uncles and the houseboy from next door so all that sh!t’s messed with his brain and he compounded all that by supporting the most useless party in the history of the world. THE PF. Oh, and he’s a kama fag also.

    • @Dudelove…..thanks Dude, it’s now water under the bridge and I am ever so sorry to have stooped so low for this nonentity skull. Sorry once again bloggers!

  17. I can see Panga Family supporters only know insults. Reminds me of one candidate who would do the same on radio when asked a tough question.

    PF comes with violence and confusion. This will be rejected on Jan 20 by peace loving Zambians.

    I can see panic over HH. kikiki!

    • I remember that candidate too. It was insults all the way and people would be amused listening to insults, reason the trend has continued. They think they are amusing the voters.

  18. Why HH is having an edge over his pretenders-majority government workers are for him;majority peasant farmers are for him;majority youths are after HH;& majority business people are after him. The other parties ni sangwapo with the remaining minority. Late us wait & see after new year! No one will be told about this wind of cleaning Zambia.Most of the few PF analysts know what is happening on the ground that’s why they are now quiet.Even gullible sycophant PF bloggers such as Mushota & Katondo Boys have come to attest to this reality on the ground!It is really interesting to hear what most people are saying about PF party.Its happening & its really true that people have more powers than afew hired guns or soldiers.Its really people’s power this time! Moreover PF…

  19. It will be a landslide for HH in Northern, Luapula and Muchinga Provinces! Keep the momentum. Stay the course. Raise the tempo…!

    • HH is disillusioned, he is losing these Presidential elections and this will mark the end of his worst political carrer. If people can go and watch AKALELA dancers, why can they go and see the person who hated Mr Sata, their hero till his death?
      Northen, Luapula, Eastern, Muchinga, Central, Lusaka and Copperbelt, Parts of Southern province its pabwatooooo for ever.
      PF has solid structureS in these areas together with development happening there why raise your BP? someone IN UPND will go to the grave early, come 21st January 2014. Ifintu ni Lungu chalishibikwa kale.

  20. God works in strange ways. The man you say smells cow dung may be your next President in about a month. God sorts out the wicked and arrogant, the way he did to PF, He made them taste power and then took it away barely three years later. Well I am told that someone who wanted power at all costs against the will of God never even enjoyed the power, in and out of hospital all three years. Now his disciples are next to be sorted out. And God’s decisions are irreversible! On 21st January 2015 the Presidency will be handed from PF to the more humble of the two,
    RB and HH. Abashala nibangwele kuli Lesa!

  21. Two easy reasons I would cast my vote for HH, he looks healthy and he is sticking to his talking points on how the nation could move forward!

  22. PF lies stink. They must be rejected en masse. There will be nothing short of a landslide victory for HH in Luapula, Muchinga and Northern Provinces. HH is the way to go! Let EL and his tutor, RGM, get lost.

    • Is this the language ??? as for election scores in Muchinga, Northern, CB, Luapula and others = just wait. Prepare for national mourning. Mulepona na futi. No matter what !!

  23. For your own information Mutati has done nothing for Lunte constituency ,he does not need to fool Zambians.Wake Zambians do not vote for those who have no heart for this country where are they getting money to hold rallies and yet people they are trying to persuade are leaving in poverty.HH has no heart for Zambia unless you are blind.

    • Indeed the chap is able to f..l those with small brains, those who can’t see through his layers of deceit and the many faces of evil he projects. This conman has an uncanny resemblance with a beast, something very evil, sinister about this man’s history which raises a red flag when you analyze his mannerisms critically. There’s something crooked he did in the past, something evil that Zambians are able to sense and keep rejecting. No smoke without fire, (HH) either sold his soul or at least a part of it. Be careful with his kind. Let he who has an ear…

    • Kudos. you could have said the same for freedom fighters. And just about any presidential candidate who will participate in the elections. They all draw low votes due to rigging. We know how that happens.

  24. Please do not call members of Parliament ‘honourable.’ It is only supposed to be used in the National Assembly. We copied our parliamentary system from Britain. An MP is not hourable outside Parliament. It is not a qualification like Dr or Prof etc.

    • Edgar: ohh dam! Too much dust I can’t breath.
      Kambwili: Me too.. Oh dear me these guys are driving so fast.
      GBM: Let me just just use my chopper andjoin them. Alabane twamonana
      Edgar: who are they?
      Kambwili: ***** ! Are you drunk already? You have forgotten whom we are following?
      Edgar: Ummm….I thought we overtook HH in Kitwe.
      Kalaba: Babusheni ba Chikwanda.
      Chikwanda: Where are our cadres?
      Kambwili: There is no money. They have gone to join Team HH in mpulungu and Lupososhi.
      Chikwanda: where is GBM?
      Kambwiili: Nayena naya. He is gone with the cadres.
      Kapata: Edgar do something.
      Edgar: Nalimwebele, without Scot and gov’t machinery we can’t do it. Letani ndalama lomba.
      Edgar: kalaba escort me to see our great leader Dr. Mugabe.
      Mugabe: Edgar you not like my great…

  25. We have lost two sitting presidents, its no joke. We might as well set up a funeral fund because we may make the same mistake as in 2011. The next one should be young and vibrant. But then again, this is Zambia hey? Ukuli fi chibuku ne fi banzi, na fi tribalism sana, ninshi ku vota forgetting that the same vote will determine what your life will be like for the next five years.

  26. Some less mortals feel the use of demeaning language for those they hate can create a deep scar on one’s vision. Yes, HH has cattle, but remember that is the cattle that you eat as T-bone. Some of you are lazy chaps having no idea cattle farming requires thoughtful, meticulous management. He that controls food controls your lives. That is why the Southern Province largely defines the health of your own family bwana Gen!

  27. The PF, are busy flying out to beg for money from Zimbabwe , and how to rigg the elections, HH! Has covered the whole country spreading the word, shame, you are done, the whole civil service, is voting for HH, how about that?

  28. Anybody who will be voting for Edgar Lungu will be voting for following things;
    (1). For the violence to continue in the country
    (2). For people’s homes to continue being demolished,
    (3). For the continuity of spilling blood like what is happening at the Inter City,
    (4). For the legalization of drinking beer whilest on duty,
    (5). For Zambia to be a full member of Boko Haram
    (6). For Zambia to be ruled by foreigners because Edgar Kachasu Lungu is a Malawian.’
    (7). For Zambia to be declared as a Muslim Nation and sharia law be imposed, because Edgar Lungu is a pure Muslim himself.’
    (8), For Zambia to have a third important National Morning as Edgar Lungu may die in office as the man is very damaged liver due to heavy alchoholic inteck. I understand the man can finish 50 pottles…

  29. LUNGUN TRAILS HH IN OPINION POLLS
    A latest opinion poll indicates that opposition UPND candidate Hakainde Hichilema (HH) would win the presidency if elections were conducted today, relegating the ruling PF’s Edgar Lungu into second place by more than 20 percentage points.
    The poll, which ran on Zambian Eye’s Facebook page, involved candidates from six major political parties that have confirmed participation in the January 20, 2015 presidential election.
    The six are Hichilema, Lungu, Edith Nawakwi of FDD, Tilyenji Kaunda of UNIP, NAREP’s Elias Chipimo Junior and Rupiah Banda who is representing the former ruling party, MMD.
    The UPND’s HH accounted for a whopping 57.7%,
    While his closest rival Lungu got 35.6%. ,
    Former President Banda came a distant third with 1.7%,
    Followed by…

  30. The pictures are highly deceiving. The photographers are playing with perspectives. In our estimate, there were less than 1000 people at this rally. Count the heads of ppl between HH and the end of the crowd. You get to about 20 ppl max, count 20 ppl across and you get 400(where it shows the largest crowd). This is about the size of a church service

    When HH arrives there are only less than 100 ppl receiving him. In short, according to statistics, HH is not doing very well.

  31. @ MUBANGA BWALYA
    on the net and radio phone calls UPND has been wining three elections we have had, but the reality is UPND will be third again this time around.
    just look how they have tambled in by elections in 2014 alone UPND has worn 1 out of 6, MMD 1 out of 6, PF 4 out of 6.
    UPND made a declarartion after death of Mazoka, only a Tonga can be a president of their party.
    Despite conflicts after satas death we never heard those kind of words in PF

  32. HH is the best candidate come 2015 20th January with voters overwhelming in muchinga and northern provinces and a mpulungu rally beating both rallies for Edgar Lungu held in Kitwe and Mansa I wonder where PF is heading .any normal person can not take Robert Mugabe as a role model this is why many heads of state never visited zambia during Sata’s time as a president ….this is a man who lost election to Morgan tshagirai in the Zimbabwe and refused to step down and unleashed brutal police on innocent citizens.this is a man who EL is quoting and his behavior is very questionable ..lungu’s behavior is questionable this is a guy who has never condemned violence because it benefits him .am glad today his presidential ambitions are coming to an end before suprem court judges ….

  33. Gentlemen let’s put premium on leadership how do panga family waste time on EL ….quality leadership is in HH….Zambians let’s stop this mediocrity of choosing embeciles low class persons drankurds, people who have never achieved anything for the country and themselves as leaders …blood thirsty PF and their allies ZANU-PF of Zimbabwe

  34. I can feel the love that people have, after 3 years of total suffering, people have released that you can not feed on a tribe but good leadership. People who were hopeless can now stand tall, God help us elect a leader that is going to bring sanity in the judiciary, police force, healthcare, education. Our great nation was headed the Zimbabwe way. Zambians are good people who won’t bit there brothers or sisters because they disagree on political issues, those who support disobedience should be caged. After elections Nsanda and his thugs should be sorted out. Time is coming when people should be accountable, PF didn’t do well in this area. Thanks to Guy Scott to have found himself in position where he feels it is free for all, a best president will be elected. Vote wisely, Vote HH.

    • I have no problem of tribe with HH. I believe he is a true committed and patriotic nationalist. The problem I have with him is his conflicting economic policy that is utopic and unrealistic. You cannot increase subsidies in all sectors while at the same time reduce borrowing and taxes. The equation does not balance. Sometimes you have to tell the people the bitter pill. Subsidies are harmful to the economy. Creating opportunities for business like PF is doing through economic infrastructure is the way forward for modern economics. HH is not a genuine economist and he is fraudster. Zambia will regret he ever entered the corridors of power.

    • The economy is at its best ever. Poverty has reduced during PF time. To pretend that HH can remove poverty with a stroke of a pen is pretentious. It is a gradual process of investments in economic infrastructure, skills development and change of mindsets. Most UPND supporters like Proud spend their time on Tonga FM (Sky), Millennium Radio and UNZA Radio talking, talking, talking and spewing0rubbish. When do they work? Go out there and see how rural youth are buying canters from vegetables, cotton and maize sales.

  35. I remember Sata use to have the same crowds in southern province back in 2011 by came election day is got a misarable third place. He will hate them more come election result kabili we know HH destest them.

  36. Keep on going HH this is your time, but PF move on the time is not with you ,today we remaining just 39 days before we vote and yet you have not started serious campaigns. You mean even in Lusaka you still need a helicopter to campaign!

  37. Prior to 1991 there were those who used to argue that UNIP would win the general elections based on the past experiences, alas they were dead wrong ! Yes UPND had lower votes in the past but that might be of little relevance in this election.

  38. Zambians must redeem themselves by crushing the evil PF. Thankfully it’s thug founder is already dead, which is a good omen that Zambia is on right track to elect a credible govt.

  39. Change of presidents and change of ruling parties has accelerated our development. This time it will be the same. I have a strong filling HH can make a difference as president of Zambia.

    Its HH time, those of you who like talking about the tribe, I think its unfair to heap it on the Tongas, Because we have seen Luapula vote for one party -PF and they are not tribal, but when southerners vote for UPND then its tribal party, how?.
    Sata appointed 80% Bembas into government positions, its tribalism at its peak, but all the people are looking the other way why?
    Let us be fair to our selves. I am neither bemba nor Tonga but I see and analyse. God is looking and He has the answer.

  40. first of all may i thank the vigilant upnd supports who arrested those pf thugs in lusaka who attacked inocent upnd supporters secondly may i express my happynessat the turn outs recorded in nothern muchinga kaputa mpulungu luapula etc for upnd rallies . yes lets move together for better zambia and shame the tribalists who behave like monkeys/baboons who laugh at the batocks of friends that its brused when his are bleeding zambia is for us all those who dont want to be in zambia when hh wins this coming january 2015 let them stay away we will invite them mid 2016 to come and see the development we are talking about under this gifted man hh. however its not too late join the wining team now and start shouting zambia forward hh chabe 2015

  41. Most Zambians think its time for the UPND to win next years elections, but that statement of declaring their party can only be run by a tonga bull simply means tonga bull first Lozi bull second and people of Zambia Third! Let him consider reversing that and HH can be tested in the Golden Boot of the First slot on the Land? vodka lungu people are simply discouraged by his excessive drinking Leading to not being 100% feet” by-elections are costing the nation, Viva Pastor MUMBA MMD for all Zambians. Young, Vibrant & atleast he once fit in the second highest state rank in the Successful mwanawasa government!!! may his soul rest in eternal peace…..

  42. HH will commit suicide on 21st January 2015 believe me. He has never explained the HOW part of the equation to the electorates. PF has everything to show done in three years.
    If it can take a veteran and experienced politician to achieve all this in three years, can an Under Five with no clue of how Government works achieve anything in 16 months? Bufi!

    Death of the sitting President cannot disrupt the good works and development people are enjoying. Move out of the box you chaps in UPND and see reality.
    Its PF, its Edgar come 20th January 2015.

    • Nga wafwa bena ati e chance !!!
      We are continuing with PF coming elections and after 2016. We shall even challenge for a THID TERM !!!!!!

  43. And the World bank has affirmed Zambia’s economy growth under PF reiterating the Moody Report of 7.8% for the next five years. Will the opposition deny this too?

    Viva Edgar, Viva PF. Ama votes bantu, ifilemoneka and not desperation and insults.

  44. The 19:00 hours ZNBC news must show the development taking place in the country under PF instead of relying on ZANIS news. That’s prime time and let the people know what PF has done and what its doing.
    Someone at ZNBC be objective please!!

    • They should flood the screen with all the projects in every district, urban tar roads, high schools, hospitals, clinics, telecommunication towers, chief’s palaces, Zambia railways, fertilizer, bumper harvests, airports, oooooooh what a miracle PF has been for Zambia. HH will erase all these gains if we gamble.

  45. There goes John the Baptist, preparing the way for Jesus. Edgar Chakwa Lungu will erase all the little lies HH has made. PF has touched all Zambians through roads, telecommunications, fertilizer, schools, hospitals. The economy is at its best ever. They cannot gamble on the unknown.

  46. If Zambia has to move two steps forward; then HH and UPND is the only answer. We the people see through and know that if any one has to develop this country further, its HH & UPND, let us not cheat people because GOD is supreme and he works though wonders.

    Giving HH & UPND a chance will not only prove to normal and a better Zambia but even the countries around.
    Truly and with honest how do you want to turn Zambia like Zimbabwe. Let us remember that every vote we make it is both answerable to God as it will give every given party a chance of wining the forth coming by-elections. Let us not just think about ourselves; but more importantly our brothers out there. Do we really want to have a better Zambia or a broken Zimbabwe type of country.
    Go Go Go HH Go UPND for better…

  47. if PF has won 4 out of 6 by elections in 2014, what makes you think that they can loose.
    Remember most of them were held in areas where PF is not even stronger. Yu will schoked. Juat wait

  48. KWA GEORGE, sata was not even present at most of these by elections, like in Mangango. You are saying that Ubulimi bwakale how ? Most of the by elections in 2014 were done less than 4 months ago. How did PF manage to get 4 out of 6.

  49. HH says that the country has failed to develop because we recycle leaders. he says people that worked in UNIP are the same now in the PF government. He is yet surrounded by the same people who will be part of his government if the majority Zambians side with him. he has realized that to be in government you need people with experience in running state affaires because running an economy is not as easy as managing your farm with 30 or 40 people and 200 animals. he needs to know that running a profit making business is not the same as running a service delivery oriented government with so many competing needs. if he can be realistic in his utterances and begin to talk about achievable issues I can vote for him

  50. But Chieftainess Kaputa knows shiny black shoes, I’ll give her that. But if she’s the boss, why is she sitting to the side, not center stage??

  51. drand you seen not to be a zambian and just to ask you how old are you or rather for how long have you been in zambia cos some of you people you amaze us pf was wining in those areas cos of of wynter kabimba the organiser using sata s name the chief liar now it is different edger kachasu larger lungu cant march sata the snake. paya farmer pathetic fools or pf/zanu zim zam mugabe s baby is not acceptable in zambia let alone in bulozi land if you like using that fake walking stick from mvitis so hh is wining 20 january 2015 viva hh

  52. Be careful with tribal politicians. Recently HH was prevailing development in Chinsali by saying Sata is taking money from North West province to build university in Muchinga. Can this can kind of person he develop Luapula, Northern and Muchinga?

    Just think of PF who have programs for the all provinces in country including Southern province.
