HH will never rule this country, vows 3rd term seeking Lungu

President Edgar Lungu who is seeking a third term in office, says United Party for National Development (UPND) and its leader Hakainde Hichilema (HH) will never rule Zambia because power is only given by the people.

His sentiments come few days after claiming that Zambians have no other choice, but to give him a third term in office.

Apparently, Lungu recently told a rally that HH should forget and smile when it comes to ruling this country.

He spoke these words, while drumming up support for the ruling PF candidate, former Law Association of Zambia (LAZ) President, George Chisanga.

He said PF will win both the Lukashya Constituency by- election and the 2021 general elections.

He has since urged people of Lukashya constituency in Kasama to vote for PF candidate.

Speaking when he addressed a rally at Nkole Mfumu in Kasama, Lungu advised Chisanga not to abandon the people once voted into office as Member of Parliament.

“Don’t forget the people when voted for, make sure you are in touch with the grassroots such as the chiefs, church leaders and other leaders, these are the people who will tell you and give feedback on the challenges faced and the needs of the people,” Lungu said.

In turn, Chisanga promised to deliver on all his pledged campaign promises.

“I am begging you mwebena Nkole to give me your votes. I am on my knees that on Thursday, you vote for me, George Chisanga umwana wakwa Nkole Mfumu,” he said.

Meanwhile, Mwebantu also reports that the former United Party for National Development (UPND) vice-president, who is now serving as PF mobilization vice chairman Geoffrey Bwalya Mwamba popularly known as GBM disputed reports that he taught Hakainde Hichilema how to insult.
