Ndola Mayor Jones Kalyati has told President Hakainde Hichilema that cadrerism has not ended in the city during the UPND regime.
Dr. Kalyati was nearly stoned by suspected UPND cadres at Kapalala Market on Monday as he spoke against the illegal allocation of commercial plots.
Some well known and identified UPND cadres in Ndola are reportedly allocating land for commercial shops at Kapalala Market in Ndola.
Accompanied by Town Clerk George Mulenga and some council Directors, Dr. Kalyati visited the market to announce to traders that the illegal allocation and construction of shops must be stopped.
The Ndola Mayor warned that Council would demolish the shops being constructed on land reserved mostly for car parking.
Toward the end of his address, some cadres started throwing stones at the mayor and the town clerk – creating a near commotion as the entourage ran away from the scene for safety.
“I have survived an attack. Thank you ba Kabushi for whisking me out. Ngafyanjipaya (They would have killed me).I got stoned. Mr President in Ndola Cadrelism iliko,” Dr. Kalyati reacted after the incident.
Some of the stones thrown by UPND cadres hit Journalists – forcing them to run away.
Who told you that caderism had ended? It’s like an eviction…. the house will have another tenant. Unlike the original political fights, what have is NAIFWE TU LYEPO. Mr Hakainde knows what is happening but will keep on talking about the PF era. Go to the Boma or the police station you always find at least one Upnd official in DCs or the Officer in charges office…. this is a daily occurrence. Our fathers fought to liberate us and the majority of them died in poverty after leaving politics.
Cadrerism reloaded…its even getting worse under UPND government
In Mufulira, the cadres have taken over Kansuswa station and the Mayor is OK with it.
We warned Zambians about upnd but some used their tonga tribe to vote. Things are now worse under upnd. Price of mealie meal is highest in history and yet some will say we have an economist and farmer in power. His is a fraud
Cardeism is getting worse under the govt of angels. as we draw nigh to 2026 general elections expect people to be maimed. UPND starting with their cult leader is ruthless.
Poverty and lack of education is a very bad combination….
Careerism is a curse. But being used by criminals who want to remain in power as Presidents For Life.
THE FOLLOWING HAPPENNED AT A POLITICAL RALLY
THE POLITICIAN SAID: “REMEMBER, CADREISM IS ILLEGAL”
THE TRANSLATOR SAID:”BAKAMBA ATI CADREISM ILIKO”
THE CAPTIVE AUDIENCE OF CADRES ERUPTED IN UNISON: ” SOSA SOSA, ICALO CILEKUMFWA”
THAT IS WHAT IS MEANT BY “LOST IN TRANSLATION”
A doctor of what? Too many misuses of titles in Zambia
A wise person will always remember that it’s very easy to destroy something that took many years to build but very difficult to rebuild an economy that is bad destroyed. A person who talks too much about others is a lazy person who cannot solve any problems affecting the whole nation.
Even at work just observe talkative people are non-performers, those who do their jobs quietly are the best performers, so just forget about this mayor we know where he belongs.
