PF Central Committee Suspends Scott
The central committee of the Patriotic Front has with immediate effect suspended Dr Guy Scott as acting president of the party for abrogating the party constitution.
Speaking during a media briefing today, Central Committee representative Benson Chali who is PF central province chairperson says Dr. Scott’s first act was to ban meetings of the central committee and Cabinet and thereby begun to rule by decree without any authority whatsoever.
He says the central committee has also noted with concern that Dr. Scott has also engaged in alleged manipulation of the state owned media institutionDr-Guy-Scott-Acting-President-s.
Mr. Chali says the central committee is ready to go for the general conference to select a leader who will be the party’s presidential candidate.
He says the central committee has since directed acting party Secretary General Bridget Atanga to submit all applications for those vying for the office of president to central committee by 14:00hours today.
Mr Chali says the central committee as the highest policy making body between general conferences has the authority to decide and superintend over party issues.
Mr Chali says the letter of suspension has since been delivered to Dr. Scott.
Earlier this morning 70 members of parliament who are behind the candidature of Justice Minister Edgar Lungu demanded that the central committee suspends Dr. Scott as president of the party.
Eastern province Minister Malozo Sichone who read the speech on behalf of the MPs says Dr. Scott has abrogated the party constitution through several actions that are inconsistent with the constitution.

Zambians please learn a lesson from these happenings. We like believing wrongly that politicians are from God. No they are not. It’s us who make them our leaders. So we must not over revere them. They are people we can chuck out anytime we want since they are our servants. Let us just preserve our Democracy

A few weeks ago, I mentioned that Zambia is in chaos. I knew what was going to be the fate of Mr. Guy Scott. He wanted to abide by the constitution to safeguard Zambia democracy. The United nations and African Union must condemn this Lung lead military coup. Zambians have never had a coup and we are not going to accept this.PF must be banned as a political party. Because with a few weeks they have created a lot of confusions. The so called supporters of Lungu are guiding their own interests to keep their jobs and to keep on stealing from Zambians.

Shame on you tail curled so called pf NEC especially sanda, Daviz Bwila and your following. You are cowards. Brainless. Ready to plunge our nation into turmoil. But be warned, Zambia is bigger than your selfishness. Your have just exposed yourselves.
A genuine leader ll seek majority approval, not assertion by hijacking the rules of the game.
Reason.

That is normal in a democratic organisation but there is danger in UPND where things are quite the man is busy pumping money in the party. The time you will suspend him he will sell the party and get what belong to him.

It seems some of u fellow black zambains are illiterate and simply foolish.let me teach you how the general convention works…you see 5000 people will come from 10u different provinces u foolish zambians…it means mps aspiring to contest will have to get different people from different provinces to cast there vote..but thats where corruption reigns..u see it gives time for any mp to buy people who will come vote…u my friend wont just wake up sti im going to vote…so luapula limited number ..lusaka limited people and that goes to the rest of the provinces.edgar my guy…good luck
