Bill 10 Advocates in North Western Province say they are being threatened

Share

Bill 10 Advocate member Prince Ndoyi has expressed disappointment with the opposition in the North-Western province for issuing threats to the team.

Mr. Ndoyi has charged that despite the threats, the team will continue with the program.

But when contacted North-western Province Police Commissioner Elias Chushi said the police have not received any report of threats on Bill 10 Advocates.

Mr. Chushi said police will launch investigations into the matter when it is officially reported.

Bill 10 Advocates have been in the Province for the last one-week sensitizing people on the contents of Constitution Amendment Bill number 10 of 2019.

So far, the team has sensitized people in 10 of the 11 districts and are currently in Chavuma.

  1. We thought “Bill Third Term ” lapsed on June 4, 2020 and was therefore “killed ” and is now dead and cremated. Who will resurrect it and does PF have the 2/3 majority vote to pass this Bill into law in Parliament? PF should forget about Bill Third Term and re-strategise to win 2021 Elections without ECL and Bill 10 Law. The majority of Zambians have rejected Bill 10 therefore PF should move on and find a New Presidential Candidate and a New Campaign message for 2021. PF is wasting time flogging a dead horse. The writing is on the Wall.

  2. The opposition has nothing to offer in Zambian politics. They have not offered any warning about what is wrong with bill 10 apart from saying the mighty PF wants to use it rig the election.

  3. I thought the life span of Bill 10 expired in Parliament. Why is it still the subject?. Knowing the glaring illegalities of this government we won’t be surprised to hear that Bill 10 is back in parley. Five and a half years of scandal after scandal after scandal

  4. I wonder, if it were UPND advocates in a PF stronghold, whether they could even have lasted a week in the area…

  5. THEY ARE JUST WASTING TAX PAYERS MONEY TO PAY THE EVIL ACTIVITIES OF THIS BILL. THE PROBLEM IS NUMBERS BA PF. YOU DONT HAVE NUMBERS IN PARLEY OTHERWISE THIS BILL WOULD HAVE PASSED. WHY WASTE TAX PAYERS MONEY. THE BILL IS DEAD AND GOING NOWHERE. WHY NOT CONCENTRATE ON IMPORTANT ISSUES AFFECTING PEOPLE.

  6. Is it any wonder why the upnd are losing by elections in their strongholds? Bill 10 is for the benefit of the entire nation. Upnd should realise that they do not own their stronghold areas. ECL is president of the whole Zambia. Anyone found wanting to stiffle freedom of expression will be dealt with harshly. Hh needs to move to diaspora where he can be president of the f.o.o.lish diasporans cause only they can br led by such a joker

  10. When others debate bill 10, the same pf cadres say all their debates are in vain because at its current stage only parliament can debate it, so why are pf cadres bring back bill 10 to the masses when it has already passed that stage, let them tell the nation if they want to take this to a referendum, so that those anti bill 10 can also up their campaigns.

  11. Even PF resurrects the Dead Bill 10 do they have the 2/3 majority vote in Parliament? So PF MPs may not vote for this notorious Bill if the vote is by secret ballot. PF should move on and forget this Bill Third Term. There must be life beyond this Bill 10.

  12. @KZ kindly tell us how this bill benefits the nation.@Aristotle, I agree with you, they are handling it like a referendum campaign. Simply put, they will force it down our throats. There is too much desperation to hold on to power in PF such that even when the nation should be on lockdown due to COVID, they go around with their minions spreading the disease even further. It just goes to show you that Lungu is not fit to lead this Country. He is a desperate and scared dictator. These people are not fit lead Zambia going forward, the challenges ahead will sink this Country with crop of leaders. Wait and see.

  14. WHEN SOMEONE IS NOT LISTNING TO YOUR THEORIES, DONT SAY HE IS THREATENING YOU BUT NO THAT HE HAS JUST LOST CONFIDENCE IN YOU. NW CAN NOT BE BOUGHT LIKE YOU ARE DOING WITH COUNCILLORS FOR SALE IN THE COUNTRY. THEY HAVE LOST CONFIDENCE IN PF LEADERSHIP. YOU CALL DEVELOPMENT WHAT HAVE YOU DONE IN THE PROVINCE WHEN ALL THE STREETS ARE POPULATED WITH FOREIGNERS TO MAKE MONEY?

    EG, A MATOKILI WILL COME ALL THE WAY FROM KALOBA AND BUILD UP A SHOP STORE HIS PRODUCE, SELL THEM AND GOES AWAY WITH HIS MONEY, WILL YOU SAY IT IS DEVELOPMENT? MATOKILI PEOPLE ARE CLEVER CAN NOT BE COMPARED TO YOUR BILL 10.

  15. He carries an ISIS budge, looks like an ISIS terrorist, talks like an ISIS with arrogance – PF supported, be trained in Sudan

  16. Ba UPND start campaigning forget about covid. MPs in western and North western start using your money. Forget about bill10. Ba PF ngatabakwata umbi uwakwiminina lwabo

  17. When you force things down the throat of the electorate that they do not want thats when you receive threats. Do you think you would have received threats if you had gone advocating for developement?
