I think the UPND is keeping up to its campaign promises it was making even before it came in power. Mwa silozi and many other Zambian dialects it is always said: Mulatu au boli or in Kaizar Zulu’s diabete: Mulandu siu wola. But to my surprise, Mr Fred M’membe is trying to blame the Zambia Police but he is also answering himself in his accusations of the Police (today’s Zambian Observer Newspaper). Why.
Mr M’membe?? I’m seeing our Opposition Parties to be very trivial and useless. Mr M’membe, let the real political Parties do the talking. In Zambia. We only have three Political Parties of substance: (1) of course the UPND (2) PF and (3) Mr Hamududu’s Party with a single MP in Parliament. The rest of you are simply noise makers! The Constitution of Zambia should be made in a similar manner to only recognize the three Parties mentioned above to be legal like the USA,UK and other similar countries to avoid this blatant confusion caused by the useless so-called Parties like the Socialist Party who even have MPs in Parliament.
