Boooooooooo!
Sad to see this PF win bcoz these people have ruined Zambia’s economy.Change is needed .
Alright, let them have ONE seat. But not more!
And almost total silence from the PF camp. I only saw Davis Mwila PFSG grumbling at the 11:00 hours ECZ briefing, but he got short shrift from the ECZ CEO.
Am UPND but I feel he deserves it. Congrats!
UPND please invite Musi Maimane who was not allowed to step foot in Zambia when he arrived to visit incarcerated HH, and was told not to disembark from the plane by the brutal outgoing PF regime. This was a merciless regime
And after stopping others campaigning for five years with them campaigning all these years, they now want to claim elections in UPND strongholds were not free and fair, PF is just embarrassing itself further, they were campaigning and stop opposition and only to come and cry foul now that elections were not free and fair, very funny chaps
These serious jokers in PF are busy crying like babies as usual. Just tell GBM that contracts are closed again and Kambwili that the verdict of the appeal will be heard pretty soon. You are loosing at parliamentary and expect to win at Presidential, why are you trying to delay the inevitable
And in the Copperbelt where you are being white washed by the UPND , were your agents chased as well. Just sober up and concede
The seat was held by an independent.
