The United Party for National Development (UPND) says the fielding of different candidates in the Mutaba ward local government by-elections was as a result communication breakdown within the pact.
UPND deputy spokesperson Cornelius Mwitwa says lack of proper communication within the pact is resulting in the two parties to act without consultation.
Mr. Mwitwa says it is unfortunate that things are happening like this as it is contrary to the Memorandum of Understanding between the two political parties.
He, however, says the adoption of different candidates in the area by the pact members is good as it will give a clear indication on what the people on the ground think of the pact.
The memorandum of understanding signed between the two parties forbids them to compete against each other in the by-elections leading up to the forthcoming general elections.
Contrary to the memorandum of understanding, the two parties have separately fielded candidates in the forthcoming by-elections in Masaiti District on the Copper belt.
According to a statement made available to QFM by the electoral commission of Zambia (ECZ) the PF is fielding West Phiri while John Tuseko is contesting on the UPND ticket.
The ruling MMD is being represented by Gilbert Kayindu.

Upnd you are all fools who told you that you can win on the cb anyone in upnd is the spokesman no worder Sata has removEd zayelo from the post
is the pact still there or what, HH will MAKE THE BEST VICE PRESIDENT ZAMBIA has ever had….let him accept the position….as for me i am against the pact but Zambians in the compounds are the ones who wants it, hear their cry.
It is a pity that the Pack is leaving us in suspense, could you please tell us the way forward.

We kno u are such a dull kaponya who doesn’t understand himself. You sound like a person from Kanyama community night school. How dare you call all UPNDs fools when none of them can be compared to your lame ancestors!! learn to consult yourself, otherwise i see u lost down in the street as a chief kabova.
Talema navo ivi vinkhani ya pact mwe! Can these foo.ls do us a favour and just come out in the open and say the pact has been buried in Chingwere? This broken record is really beginning to grate.
Soon or later HH will go into the Guinness World Record Books. As a politician that could not believe in the WILL of his party. What communication Break Down is this chap talking about? Where has he been in the last 96hrs?
The curtain has fallen down. This should have been avoided back had HH made good judgement. To start with, symptoms were all over the place.

dull villager cattle keeper, no wonder you are fcuking animals now days, the comment on #1 wasn´t mine whats wrong with you..kupwalala mbuzi iwe chi voice kutikama even girls run away from you just after telling them your real names koswe iwe.
And the symptoms were:
() SATA told HH that he was under five
() SATA wrote a letter to UPND after Mufumbwe Parliamentary be-election in April last year. UPND Secretary General (Winstone Chibwe), said PF had virtually declared the Pact dead by shunning the partnership a critical moment.
() SATA sent a killer punch that he would field 150 candidates nationwide.
() SATA has not keen to have a dialogue with HH to orchestrate /synchronize/harmonize UPND Manifesto and his 90 Days Miracle Manifesto.
() Fred False Prophet M’membe had blown the whistle as a referee and decided to award the penalty to Sata
When will these chaps let go…

my friend it’s better that way so that MMD can rule coz i see RB to be better than constable, chief kabbova, grade 4/unknown to rule zambia. SATA can be the worst dull president ever existed in Africa if he was to win on PACT ticket. but thank God HH is more clinical than any one thought. he has done us proud by not allowing kabbova to use him!
What is happening to UPND? Who makes decisions, there seems to a lot of unco-ordinated statements; and they are ever complaining about PF bad behaviour, always on the offensive against their opponents, and PF is also always reactional. UPND is looking more and more lost. PF is showing signs of being a national opposition party in that they are busy conducting Provincial Conferences which are not being covered by state media, while UPND has not gone to any Province for such meetings. In this view, PF is looking more organised than UPND. Let them stop the blame game, crying baby, hysterical and childish behaviour. Take a decisive stance..
HH, we know you have invested a lot of money into this journey to State House. However, that is the name of the game. Investing into politics is not a “Good Technical Trading Indicator” because the Resistance Level & Support Level does not show any good spikes.
Stick to the London Stock Market, at least you can see when the Stocks, Options, Futures, Derivatives are in the BULL or BEAR market. You wasted ample time meandering. Neither you nor Sata have played any opposition role to MMD.
Instead, spent your time subscribing to Insults, Mediocre and Pedestrian. RB spent time flying around the world looking for investments. Now he can just concentrate on the programs and campaign issues. RB is not perfect but one can see the fruits in certain corners of developments.
Lack of Communication coordination says a lot about the leader of UPND. It appears like no one has RESPECT for HH or his National Spokesman. Any one can just go and broadcast anything to the contrarily. We also know that some characters in UPND want to challenge HH for leadership
This is one of the reasons why he does not want to have a National Convention. A lot of these guys believe that the Party has wasted in the past one year failing to promote its Core Ideas. There is also a secret campaign to OUST him.. The problem is that HH thinks UPND cannot financially survive without him. I think he very wrong. As well he wants to recoup his money. However, that is not being Patriotic if you love your country as a Political Leader.
PF cant win in Masaiti distict. UPND has a good chance of winning there.
HH needs to come out from his Comfort Zone of the Corporate World. It’s not always about playing it COOL, being a GENTLEMAN and DISGUISE yourself
HH is the youngest by far from SATA & RB. At times, he appears as if he is the one with less energy compared to the “ TWO OLD GUARDS”
I am not surprised that the knives are on him to challenger his leadership. Telling the Party Base Support that he could “not win on his own” was the biggest mistake he made.
I have never come across a Football or any Sports Team that goes to a game and you hear the Captain or Coach – say were are going to LOOSE, even before stepping in the field.
Surprisingly, now UPND says, O’Yeah !! We can win the 2011 elections without joining the PACT. What does that say about the leader of the Team?
On “UPND deputy spokesperson Cornelius Mwitwa… says it is unfortunate that things are happening like this as it is contrary to the Memorandum of Understanding between the two political parties… says the adoption of different candidates in the area by the pact members is good as it will give a clear indication on what the people on the ground think of the pact” firstly is he a deputy spokesperson or a deputy secretary general? Secondly, it is nice that the UPND top leadership (i.e., NEC) has decided to publicly support the UPND Copperbelt provincial teal of Elisha Matambo in teaching PF a good lesson in PF’s stronghold.
Be blest all and I hope UPND will be supporting the MMD candidate in the Mporokoso MP by-election just like PF is said to have done in Chilanga.

Matt…
As for “The United Party for National Development (UPND) says the fielding of different candidates in the Mutaba ward local government by-elections was as a result communication breakdown within the pact” flet the mighty UPND TEAM continue with its own campaigns for HH and all other UPND election-candidates until PF comes to the table with UPND to resolve the misunderstandings as well as chart the way forward for the PF-UPND PACT in looking at the upcoming tripartite elections. If its not too late to nominate a UPND candidate to be an MP in Mporokoso, let the UPND sponsor their candidate also there so that PF and UPND compete.
Be blest all and I hope UPND will support the MMD candidate in Mporokoso MP by-election it fails to nominate its own candidate to teach PF.

why are you so tribal? In whose interest are you comments? Chaps like you are the ones who cant compete individually. You always want to bring in the tribe issue cause you think it will give you points. My guess is, you are a failure. You have no superior individual attributes.
Shut up ba mukolwe!
