…Says Kabwe teacher’s reported suicide over debts is a painful wake-up call for government action By NATION REPORTER in Mporokoso NRPUP presidential candidate Brian Mundubile has pledged to introduce a strong debt swap programme for teachers and other civil servants, saying public workers trapped in loans, salary deductions and mounting financial pressure deserve immediate relief....
By NATION REPORTER in Mporokoso NRPUP vice-presidential candidate Makebi Zulu has declared that he sacrificed his own presidential ambition in response to public calls for a united opposition, urging Zambians to complete the mission by voting for presidential candidate Brian Mundubile in next month’s election.

The campaign begins in Eastern Province from 23 to 27 June before proceeding to Muchinga from 28 June to 2 July, Northern from 3 to 7 July, and Luapula from 8 to 12 July. Mundubile and Zulu will then campaign in Lusaka from 13 to 17 July.
The sequence of rallies gave Tonse-Pamodzi something every opposition campaign seeks but cannot manufacture through press statements: visible national momentum. The crowds crossed provincial boundaries and demonstrated growing public interest in the NRPUP ticket. Kitwe provided the Copperbelt signal, Kabwe confirmed Central Province mobilisation, and Petauke demonstrated that the alliance could draw a major audience in Eastern Province.
Musokotwane claims that no Chinese loan existed for the earlier project. That is factually incorrect. The Auditor-General records that a US$187 million credit facility was agreed with Jiangxi Bank in May 2019 to finance 15 per cent of the contract. From that facility, US$30,000,000.70 was disbursed in October 2019. Hon. Makebi Zulu was, therefore substantially correct that Chinese financing existed. It was a Jiangxi Bank credit facility, not imaginary money created by the learned counsel.
Excitement swept across the grounds when Mr. Mundubile and Mr. Zulu finally arrived and took to the stage around 16:30 hours, receiving thunderous cheers from the thousands in attendance.
