Political Analyst Alex Ng’oma says people should not doubt MMD president Nevers Mumba’s sincerity with regards his statement that he is ready to sacrifice the party presidency and work under any leader chosen to lead an opposition alliance.
Dr. Ng’oma has told Qfm News in an interview that there is need to respect Dr. Mumba’s view and position at the moment because he has the right to do so.
Dr Ng’oma adds that Zambians should simply wait and see if Dr Mumba will stand by his word.
He says one’s past conduct should not be the basis to doubt their present commitment.
Forum for Democracy and Development leader Edith Nawakwi was quoted by the Post Newspapers as saying that Dr Mumba cannot be trusted on issues of alliances because he once betrayed the opposition parties when he was entrusted and sent to present a petition to former president Levy Mwanawasa but ended up accepting a job as vice president.
And Dr. Ng’oma says what is important for the opposition at the moment is to unite and move forward in providing checks and balances to the ruling party.
He says once the opposition is united and agreed on a common agenda, the possibility of a strong opposition alliance will be realized.

HE IS NOT SACRIFICING. HE KNOWS VERY WELL THAT HE IS NOT POPULAR; AND THE ONLY WAY OUT FOR HIM IS TO GO INTO ALLIANCE AND TO BECOME THE VICE PRESIDENT. MUMBA IS A DISHONEST PERSON.

I lost confidence in Nevers Mumba the day he gave up his church for politics. I was very disappointed. When he used to run “Zambia shall be served programme” on ZNBC TV, we all loved him. I remember he was once interviewed on TV and he was asked this question “If you had to stand for presidency of this country, would you do it?”. He replied and said “That is a demotion. As a man of God I am much higher in position than that of a president.” . I do not think Nevers Mumba can be trusted.

A united opposition will be the best thing for mother Zambia for checks and balance.
