The desperation of the PF to hang on to power even when they are laying waste to the country has now led them to start committing crimes of issuing National Registration Cards, and possibly even Voters Cards, at their homes, the opposition United Party for National Development (UPND) has charged.
Reacting to reports that Kitwe mayor Kelvin Sinyangwe has been issuing National Registration Cards (NRCs) from his house, UPND spokesperson Charles Kakoma says it is now clear that the ruling PF was bent on rigging next year’s elections, having realised that they have no chance of winning.
“The case of the Kitwe mayor Kelvin Sinyangwe who was issuing NRCs is not only a serious crime, but demonstrates clearly that we now have a group of criminals masquerading as leaders and seeking to rig next year’s election in order to remain in power, even against the wishes of the Zambian people,” Kakoma said in a statement made available to Zambian Eye.
He has warned the PF that that their days are numbered and no amount of trickery will save them from defeat.
“They must peacefully start packing up their offices and avoid any form of confrontation and acrimony that has sometimes characterised African elections,” he said.
He called on the Electoral Commission of Zambia and law enforcement agencies to investigate and address alleged malpractices which threaten the prospect of free and fair elections in 2016. He further wants the ECZ to communicate regularly and openly with the public and civil society on how such investigations are progressing and how the perpetrators are being punished.
Infact interest will be demanded backdated because had the money’s been put in the economy the people of Zambia would have benefited massively coupled with the multiplier effects that would have come with that.
why are you disputing rigging concerns when your own police has opened up investigations relating to your kitwe mayor?
Yes elections held from time to time give parties an opportunity to gauge their strength, but that’s no guarantee for your pf because apart from dynamics changing, pf currently enjoys incumbency. You have the whole cabinet rupiah dcs cadres all camped in one area but it’s not like that in a general election, its each man woman for themselves. At the moment pf is pouring in millions of dollars in these elections intimidation is also being applied. So for one to chose to ignore this then they should be told ahead of time that they are doing that at at their own peril
People say those who will vote PF are not normal. Actually the opposite may be true
MINUNGU YA BONA SHA. PF SHOULD BE TOLD THAT IF THEY RIG ELECTIONS WE SHALL SET THEIS COUNTRY ON FIRE. TIMELY WARNING.
Tell that corrupt person that he will be among those that will be arrested when Hakainde Hichilema and UPND come to rule Zambia in 2016. Shame upon visionless PF bayonaula abene.
upnd chaps always amaze me. They always claim to be popular but when an election is called they loose be it parliamentary or ward election. It is this kind of blindness that makes them see rigging where there is none. They want to spread fake news several times so that people believes it. No one was issuing registration cards in Kitwe . Your cry has come too soon. Your popularity on face book and insults will not take you to plot 1. Two and half provinces can not take you to plot 1. Come 2016 you will surely lose.
Don’t say twakana iwe mbuli, say nakana! Only an abnormal person can vote for PF this time around!
Pf is no longer popular. No sane zambian will vote for pf with these economic hardships felt by even those issuing cards corruptly.
