In a political culture too often dominated by noise, the ZWW members chose to elevate two men who can spar with the incumbent on substance, not just rhetoric.
PF WARNS OF INFILTRATION PLOT, URGES VIGILANCE AND INTERNAL DISCIPLINE
Mukandila warned members to guard against what he termed calculated attacks by political enemies seeking to weaken the PF from within, stressing that unity and alertness are essential at this stage of the party’s renewal.
PF CALLS FOR RESOLUTION OF ECL BURIAL, WARNS AGAINST DEFECTIONS AHEAD OF GENERAL CONFERENCE
The Patriotic Front has urged President Hakainde Hichilema to abandon ongoing court processes and re-engage in dialogue to resolve the prolonged funeral and burial impasse of former President Edgar Chagwa Lungu, warning that the continued delay is setting a “dangerous precedent” for the nation.
Respect the Wishes of the Dead: A Message Dr Nevers Mumba Should Not Ignore
Dr Mumba would serve both the President and the nation better by offering honest counsel rather than public justification. Advising President Hichilema to respect the wishes of the deceased and his family would not weaken him. If anything, it would demonstrate maturity, humility, and statesmanship.
NEVERS MUMBA MAKES CARELESS STATEMENT OVER ECL’S BURIAL
The Lungu family does not seek validation from State House. They do not seek reconciliation ceremonies. They seek space. They seek quiet. They seek to lay their husband and father to rest without the shadow of power hovering over the grave. That is not bitterness. That is humanity.
MAHAMA REMINDS HH: AFRICA NEEDS STRONG INSTITUTIONS
President John Dramani Mahama of Ghana has reminded his counterpart, President Hakainde Hichilema, that Africa does not need strong men. It needs strong institutions.
KALABA TELLS OFF PF ON EMMANUEL MWAMBA VERIFIED
Between principle and pragmatism, Zambia’s opposition remains divided, not for lack of dialogue, but for lack of agreement on what should ultimately lead the coalition: ideals, or votes.
ECZ should BE SERIOUS, NOT DISMISSIVE
Why does the voter register displayed on the ECZ website, marked 2025, show just over seven million registered voters, while the Commission publicly announced a figure exceeding 8.8 million? A discrepancy of more than 1.7 million voters is not a rounding error. It is not a footnote.
UNITE OR LOSE
If we are to get Zambia back to pro-poor governance, people-centred development, and household-focused economic growth, it will not happen in an environment of acute opposition disunity. Please, this is not classroom ideology. This is real arithmetic data.
LUBINDA PLEDGES TO BACK FLAG BEARER TO BE CHOSEN IN FEBRUARY
Lubinda publicly pledged allegiance to the party founded by Michael Chilufya Sata, to the Patriotic Front as stewarded by Edgar Chagwa Lungu, and to the Tonse Alliance, which he reminded the gathering was established to strengthen unity among opposition forces.
KASAMA GOES TO THE POLLS WITH EYES WIDE OPEN
In this Kasama scope, the smallest wards include Lusenga with 2,486 registered voters, Musowa with 3,199, Kapanda with 3,382, Chumba with 3,568, and Lualuo with 3,603. These numbers are real, but their weight is limited. Allowing early returns from small wards to dominate public conversation creates perfect cover for mischief, hidden behind manufactured momentum while the major wards remain outstanding.
