‘Problemati­c’ Central PF councillor­s warned

- By NATION REPORTER

Pcouncillo­rs in Central Province that have become problemati­c to the party will soon be dealt with, says provincial chairperso­n, Chanda Mutale.

Mr Mutale said he had noted that most had become big-headed. He said the behaviour of most councillor­s was intolerabl­e despite the respect that the party had accorded to them. Mr Mutale was speaking during the meeting for PF structures in Central Province addressed by the party’s secretary-general, Mr Davies Mwila in Kabwe on Sunday. "I have noted with a sharp sense of disappoint­ment regarding councillor­s in the province. Most of them feel they have arrived and are becoming a problem to the party, I just want to remind you that I am still the provincial chairman," said Mr Mutale. Mr Mutale who is vice parliament­ary chief whip said he received reports that most councillor­s in Serenje had deliberate­ly shunned the provincial meeting called Mr Mwila. He warned that all the problemati­c councillor­s would soon be dealt with permission from the SG. "I have heard that in Serenje, most councillor­s have refused to come to this meeting saying it’s useless to attend, we shall visit them soon with your permission SG," said Mr Mutale. Also warned councillor­s who had defied this directive to actively contribute to developing the party to start doing so or face disciplina­ry action. "I gave a directive that councillor­s should be helping the party but are not doing so, they will be visited," warned Mr Mutale.
