Wynter Kabimba says UPND leader Hakainde Hichilema will remain frustrated for the rest of his life because his party will never form government.
And PF chairperson for elections Sylvia Masebo has predicted victory for the ruling party in today’s Mangango by-elections.
Addressing a rally in Namushakasha area in Mangango Constituency to drum support for the PF candidate Lyambai Lingweshi, Kabimba, the PF party secretary general, said electoral losses had turned Hichilema into a miserable person who could not smile.
Kabimba said Zambia needed a president that was mature and one who loved people.
“Two groups of people will come here, the first one is from MMD, the same people you rejected in 2011 to govern us because they failed to develop this area. The second group is that one of people that has never been in government and they will never. They are led by Mr Hakainde Hichilema…. Look at him carefully, he doesn’t smile. How can you have a leader who doesn’t smile? He doesn’t even smile at his wife and the rest of his team are just like him,” Kabimba said.
He said Hichilema had failed to become a national leader because he had never been in any political position.
“The man is frustrated with election losses. When he took over UPND, it had 49 MPs. Today under Mr Hakainde’s leadership there are 28 MPs because the Zambian people have been able to see that this country can only be run by a mature person,” he said.
Kabimba asked party supporters not to tire in their mobilisation programmes.
He said the party must be the voice of the people and the link between people and the government.
“I am standing here as minister of government sent by His Excellency the President, not only for Tuesday’s election but on how to govern the country. On Tuesday wake up very early and vote for Lingweshi. He is your son here, you know him and he will represent you in Parliament. He’s the one who knows your problems. He lives here with you, he understands your problems and because of that, he will not disappoint you,” said Kabimba.
Masebo said the PF had done its homework and was waiting for Lingweshi to be declared winner at the close of polls today.

I have never seen a man with a serious face like HH. How did he propose to his wife, if he has one or children if he has any.

WE ARE NOT FOOLS AS ZAMBIANS, WE ARE NEVER CHEATED TWICE. IT’S HIGH TIME THOSE IN GOVERNMENT TO DELIVER THAN POLITICKING OR ELSE THEY WILL BE THE NEXT VICTIMS. WHY TALK ABOUT HH AND NOT NEVERS, EDITH, MILUPI ETC??? ITS BECAUSE HE IS A BIGGER THREAT AND PEOPLE ARE WATCHING.

Leave HH alone. Tamumfwako noluse! Your friend balimukanya ukusekaseka kufiwa, ati seka!!
Maybe he has promised to smile as he goes to state house. I will vote for him IF AND ONLY IF I see him smiling four times a day for a week.

When the HIV virus reaches advanced stage, the patient starts hallucinating and lips turn red. Who has red lips help me. While smile like an idiot when there are serious problems affecting Zambians. That is why you can not plan. CNP.
You end up smiling in court as you try to please the judge and end up never winning a case in court in your life time.
If this is what PF said they practice issues based politics then PF has no issues for Zambia. Im told you had to repeat courses in order to get a silent degree in Law at UNZA. Even villagers in Mangango were asking if really Kabimba is a Lawyer or a layer.
