Tasila, the daughter to incumbent president and ruling party candidate Edgar Lungu says it is a waste of time for her father to debate with Hakainde Hichilema.
Hichilema is the main challenger to President Lungu. He is standing on the UPND ticket and has challenged President Lungu to a live debate so the country can tell who is best suited to governor.
But Lungu’s daughter who is also standing as a councilor in one of the wards in Chawama in Lusaka says she is set to take on the UPND Strongman.
Tasila has also charged that the UPND manifesto which she says was produced during founder president Anderson Mazoka is outdated. She says the UPND has no manifesto.
Here is Tasila’s statement:
” I have great respect for elders. It is hard to believe that in this day and age we can still be engaging in debate without clear guiding documents to support our debate.
It is easy to promise heaven on earth; even our uncle Mr. Mulyokela does that but what really matters is that every promise we make should be explained with reference to how it fits into other larger context of economic development.
All nations work with limited resources. An increase in expenditure in one sector means less in other sectors. You can not promise to spend more in all sectors. So the starting point should be developing a very detailed manifesto and development plan detailing how you are going to spend, on what you are going to spend and how you will raise what you are going to spend.
UPND last developed a manifesto in the Mazoka days. They maintained the document beyond its span and now that they know they cant use it any more, they develop ten points on a small pice of paper. That is lack of seriousness. There is actually no basis for debate. PF has a new manifesto 2016 to 2021 detailing achievements and plans.
We also have a PF development operational document detailing the programmes that will be implemented to realise the targets set in the manifesto. This clearly show how resources will be generated and spent with clear projections of growth in all sectors. This feeds into the PF 50 years document which shows long term development planning.
With all this level of detail how do we debate with people who can only manage ten points on quarter a page? There is no time to waste with people whose debate has no basis. The President is way above this level of politics. I challenge Mr. Hichilema to a full day live debate. I am ready for him.”

Tasila please have respect to elders. Do not think because your father is in authority now, you will forever be in authority. You have surprised me that you can have the guts to challenge a person equal to your father. Where are your manners? Where are your parents to advise you? Where have you got the guts? Do you listen to Mrs Edgar Lungu yourself? Come on please don’t bring a curse upon your life. The Bible says children should respect their parents. Not only your biological father but anybody older than you please

The contents of Tasila’s contribution typify the Edgar Lungu distorted narrative of reality of his failure not just to think but also to offer credible leadership befitting a president. First, it is a fact that the UPND manifesto is the only document that is available online apart from HH’s ten point plan. Mr Lungu was the one who invited the whole world to Heroes Stadium to launch his manifesto only to announce that it was trapped at the printers. And if Ms Tasila Lungu has indeed been to school beyond a first degree that her father is purported to have, she would have saved herself the embarrassment of lacking some intellectual curiosity by accessing the manifesto from HH’S Facebook page free of charge rather than showcasing her ignorance on the internet like this. Secondly, it is a fact that it’s Mr Lungu’s manifesto which is written in chapters which are not longer than quarter pages, which even a Grade 7 can never do.If Tasila is the most educated in PF who suddenly has become a mouth piece of this once respectable party of the late Michael Chilufya Sata (MHRIP), surely she would know that a chapter cannot be written in a quarter of a page she now twists facts for the ten point plan of UPND! But then what can one expect from a Lungu? just like Lungu told Zambians that ritual murderers were opposition members but has since lamentably failed to prove his assertion, just like the Tasila’s party killed the UPND supporter, Mapenzi, and are now blaming the UPND for that; just like Mr Lungu is an open satanist but was quick to sponsor a poster in Kasama two days ago calling HH a satanist; just like PF attacked GBM’s home in Kasama and planted the petrol bombs this morning only to claim that the bombs were found in GBM’s home, Tasila is peddling the not so clever narrative of the devil’s chaplain here. Like father: like daughter!

This is what happens when a family gets a lot of money in a short time that the family has not properly worked for. My advice to Tasila is to stay out of public life because any slight mistake you make can reflect badly on the first family and your father. Friends of the Lungus please intervene and council the young girl.

I think you deserve all such crass rebuttal as in every post here, indeed you’re brainless like your dad. I can’t insult you farther, but remember to wisely spend that money you have undeservedly amassed without trace in polishing up that your stinky between-legs, after 11th you’ll have to trek courts and law firms with your dad answering to the charges of graft or extortion.
By the way, HH ain’t your level to debate you. Your clueless dad is older than HH and is serving president yet fears so much to face HH in any way of intellectualism, how much more yourself who can’t even state a single point of that intangible pf manifesto. Just go to hell ugly bitch, this isn’t stone age. I would never be proud of a dad who is as clueless as yours. Well, if you feel much more informed than your father, then we challenge you to debate HH’s youngest child, and hear how you’ll prattle, but I can assure you that in just under a minute you’ll outdone.

You are forgiven tasila because you don’t know what you are doing. You have never been a politician/president/minister/ nor a councilor before and this is when you are attempting to be only a councilor. What is it that you know better comparing yourself to elders for that matter, the incoming President! You have no morals, anyway we blame her parents because they are the ones who are supposed to teach her to respect elders. Can our mother Ester Lunga allow such nonsense from her step daughter. Parents sit this girl down and teach her accordingly. TASILA HAVE RESPECT FOR ELDERS you cannot challenge elders (ukununusha).Moreover, you are not the president of this country for you to challenge HH we don’t know you. Keep quite!

Typical of a prostitute.
Her reasoning is cockeyed.
Because she can open her legs to old men she thinks she can use the same logic to open her mouth to debate with HH.
If Lungu is afraid to debate with HH does it mean that Tasila is better than Lungu?
We have had sons and daughters of former presidents and no one went to this extent of challenging a prominent leader of the main opposition party.
Please Tasila, do not entertain vain self-complacency and the desire of making a show of being spoken of over nothing.
Tasila, we already know your mental deficiency. You have an IQ of an idiot below 20.
Please do not contaminate us with your mental retardation syndrome.
We suggest that you debate with Clance Zulu who has esteem you do not deserve because Clance has superior intelligence.
You really need a fellow idiot to debate with, not even an imbicile or moron can accept to debate with you.
Just chew public money because time is really ticking away.
