Charlotte Scott the UPND candidate for Lusaka Central Constituency was on Tuesday morning chased from Lusaka’s Town Centre Market when she tried to do a walk through campaign.
Ms Scott who is the wife to former Vice President of the country and the ruling PF Guy Scott said they were stoned by known members of her husband’s former party.
She said the attackers used catapults, screwdrivers and stones as weapons to chase them from the market.
She added that it was unfortunate that people can not be left to campaign freely.
“We went for campaigns in Town Centre market this morning. While we were inside, having a successful walkabout, our vehicles and supporters waiting outside were attacked with catapults, screwdrivers and rocks.
“Fortunately the people were unharmed but the Land cruiser was extensively damaged. The attackers were known PF cadres. Our team did not retaliate. Why can’t we campaign in peace? This is completely unacceptable!” She said.
Days, only days left before these stone age P.F buffoons are chased out of town and municipality.
I said just suspend campaign in Lusaka. People have decided, its Charlotte.
UPND PLEASE BE WARNED IN THE COIMING DAYS AND WEEKS PF WILL KICK LIKE HELL FOR “ONE IS NEVER MORE ALIVE THAN WHEN THEY ARE ON THE VERGE OF DEFEAT!!!!” AS A MOVEMENT UPND CAN NOT LET UP NOW. WE HAVE TO GET UPND LEANING VOTERS TO MAKE SURE THEY VOTE. IF UPND CAN BEAT LUNGU IN KABWATA, MATERO AND LUSAKA RURAL THEY WIN THE PROVINCE AND HENCE THE ELECTION!!!! CHILANGA IS ALMOST A FOREGONE CONCLUSION UPND WILL TAKE CHILANGA. IF MULEZ DELIVERA KABWATA AND WE TAKE MATERO LUNGU IS DONE.
MUNALI WILL BE CLOSE.
WE NEED MATERO KABWATA AND LUSAKA RURAL!!
THAT’S OVER FINNISH!!!!!!
@Nostradamus
What is shocking is the weapon of choice,,, malengeni,, Edgar is now confused sending his boys with malengeni,,, but I understand bullets are expensive,,,and his boys are careless
@Ndobo, ba PF can can use anything, even biting. Naikosa game. Man help me find Kaizer Zulu, I need pump sense in him that peace of thug, he has turned our drinking friend Edgar into a stone throwing lawyer. What kind of politics has been advising?
In Zambia When you are not received means you are not wanted. Sata was never chased anywhere in 2011. Mrs Scott can save herself from embarrassment before it’s too late. HH is used to losing just leave him alone. You and guy are on the losing side this time around sorry.
Your husband deceived you that Upnd was popular….. Just pull out to avoid embarrasment
How about letting the electorate decide instead of resorting to violence? You guys are for a Christian Democratic nation, no? In a real democracy, everyone is free to campaign! Dununa reverse indeed!
Tell her please. UPND at it again with wrong advisers
Nini yako Harlot…go back to scotland
Elo lyanya. Bana Scot went to campaign in chizungu at town centre. Lol! I guess that is why she was chased. Please take some evening lessons for Nyanja.
This is the same case with Mulenga Sata, he has failed to campaign in Kabwata. Naikosa game.
These PF thugs think this will make their lives better.
Wait until the election is over and the IMF have to come and bail Zambia out from the massive debt Lungu and his PF have brought on us. And the price of mealie meal is over K200 a bag!
Then they will be singing a different song! Dunana FORWARD!
Charlotte you are the weakest link…goodbye!!! And no worries Can’t Believe, we shall vote HH out of UPND.#ECL
@skylights. Couldn’t care less who comes to power as long as it’s a fair playing field. What I don’t get is the violence by the Democratic Christian led party currently in power. What are you scared of if you are winning?
Name should have been skybottom because you are using the bottom to think.
Stone age politics from a stone age president!
Is this what Lungu is doing to Zambia? We need better leadership than this dunderhead!
Vote wisely August 11.
‘land cruiser was extensively damaged’. a picture to this effect will no doubt tell a much better story. please spare us from some of this exaggerated crap
Iwe’ George iwe’, grow up please!!
What evidence do you need? Did You see the damage your fellow P.F Wild h0gs caused @ the U.P.N.D H.Q’s recently?
We could go on & on, BUT we are NOT as dull as the average thick skulled P.F. cadre – thug.
Zambia surely deserves better A.S.A.P!!
I REST MY CASE!!
She will post a land cruiser which was involved in an accident as exibit
And the drunkard idi0t will turn around say the UPND is a very violent party! This f00l is dull and he thinks all Zambians are like him- DULL. Kwena c!kala uyu atubweshesha sana kunuma.
Plans are in place to arrest Edgar Chagwa Lungu should he step foot on American soil. Charges include causing the death of Mapenzi Chibulo.
Theze UPND cadres on LT have nothing to do. Just comment anything they dont even check the facts. Kanshi ama liars bengi mu UPND, same as HH.
And 1mbecile PF cadres like you do make intelligence contributions?
Umuchinshi usuma pantu ukafilwa no kwakubutumila,as long as he’s de sitting president kuti akusha mukalati
Mrs Scott,
This is democracy at play in Africa.
Your advisers should have briefed you before you entered politics.
The “incensed youths” were just reacting to the lies you and your party have been publicly expressing as a cheap ploy for gaining votes! The promises you make do not work in Zambia of 2016. President HH has been warned by numerous knowledgeable experts about this. His arrogance and his unbridled preoccupation to enter Plot 1 have defied logical thinking. Shame for an economics graduate!
President Lungu deserves a second term. His first term was compromised…HE HAS LEARNT FROM THAT!
English ba Lusaka times. You should have said,she was attacked not chased…
I agree. I thought she was chased by the people she was addressing in the market. Kanshi ni bakambwanga just hired to damage her vehicles
I do not see why someone should resort to throwing stones and using screw drivers. It is not the party cadres that will put one in parliament but us the people who want to listen to what the candidates will sell to us. Zambia Police should be sued for allowing these *****s to behave in the manner they did. will there be a time when PF will behave like civilized party?
so much for the peace accord!!!
Do they sale stones at centre market if not where then did they get those stones to throw at you Carrot Chikoti.chi mayo ulichabufi.
Violence is what I hate about PF and I fail how people in overseas in free lands are able to support such a regime. Wait until your family members get injured or killed by your PF then you will will know how bad PF is. Lungu can’t claim to be a Christian when he has made his party to be so violet.
@KK Airport cabinet your tribal party is too violent were did mapatizya formula originate from. Which party is William tekere banda in? what about scorpion kadobi?what about the great boxer mafia(GBM) or Geoffrey Mwalya bwamba? these chaps are violent they have beefed up the already violent up n down group.
Ala chabufi chimayo, why cant you just accept that Lusaka Central is for Maggie this time iwe carrot chikoti.
Days of murungus in leadership in long gone, go and rest murungu Scott
my apologies, meant violent
@Bambola Mwanamuchende, am neither for UPND nor for PF. But i hate your PF’s violence against UPND. Never have we seen such violence against fellow Zambians than we have seen under your Changwa who is mocking God. He makes the Cobra a saint. Have you forgotten about your Kaizer who has shot at people and assaulted the innocent even this week and Lungu does nothing to him. I condemned Tekere when he was violent in MMD, but I have not seen him being violent in UPND. I condemn every violent man including your so called humble president for making Zambia a violent country
Ask youself…why is Margaret not chased or attacked in the city center….its because there are no upnd zealots around….you can’t tell me they are not violent…upnd is out numbered….ask Miles and Richard they were also chased in Kasama….same thing happens in Southern Province were PF is outnumbered…that is reality…Holuza Hazibika (HH).
MRS SCOTT AND UPND WILL CONTINUE CAMPAIGNING IN A CIVILISED MANNAER AND NO AMOUNT OF VIOLENCE AND INTIMIDATION WILL STOP ACHIEVING THE OBJECTIVE. STONE THROWING ETC WILL JUST SCARE AWAY EVEN THE FEW WOULD BE SUPPORTERS. SHOULD WE SAY THESE ARE THE LAST AND HARD KICKS OF A DYING HORSE?
This kamusungu wamusoko went to town cetre to test the waters there-by risking the lives of our brothers and sisters despite our political affiliation for what. Very soon HH will make history by becoming the most sorrowful and rejected presidential aspirant candidate on the planet.
they are hungry hyenas..
The dogs will only stop barking when the owners of the kaloba demand to take their balls to repay the kaloba that they have plunged the country into. We cannot allow ourselves to suffer because of some ignorant and dull Zambians who cannot explain how they became what they are.
