HH stop attacking innocent people

-

Dear Editor,

THE recent attack by HH on the Electoral commission­er of Zambia chairman justice Esau Chulu that he should resign his position cannot go unchalleng­ed.

HH Should Stop attacking innocent people. Not long time ago the same HH also attacked the speakers of the national assembly Dr Patrick Matibini ,he also went on to attack the high court judges, supreme court judges including the chief justice Ireen Mambilima and he has also attacked the inspector general police Kakoma Kanganja. Surely this is not good for a leader aspiring to become the republican president

Each time HH loses an election he cries foul that the election was rigged. The trend which is more like a tradition now the UPND stronghold provinces are southern, Western , North-western and part of Central , while the PF stronghold­s are Lusaka, Copperbelt, Northern, Luapula , Muchinga, Eastern and partly Central provinces. In other words the PF commands 6 and half provinces while the UPND commands 3 and half provinces but what was so abnormal in the 2015 and 2016 election results was the so called neck to neck results. This is because the UPND stronghold­s had the massive voter turnout of about 90- 95% while the PF stronghold­s had the voter turnout of about 40-55% except Lusaka. This is the biggest problem which the PF is supposed to resolve in their stronghold­s if at all they want to return power in2021, failure to resolve this voter apathy in their stronghold­s one day they will be shocked and tumble to the improper fraction of 7/3,which would be a really shocking result. Why is the PF leadership failing to sensitize or educate their electorate­s in their stronghold­s about the dangers of voter apathy. If the PF also had had massive voter turnout in their stronghold­s like the UPND did ,this UPND party could have been a forgotten project like UNIP.
