PF Govt Will Support UCZ And Other Churches -Edgar Lungu
Patriotic Front President Edgar Lungu has appealed to the Church for spiritual guidance to help deliver Zambia peacefully after next week’s presidential by-elections.
And Mr. Lungu says the PF government will support the United Church of Zambia (UCZ) and other churches in their ministry of the Word, Sacraments and pastoral care they provides to the people.
In a letter to UCZ Secretary General Reverend Dr. Peggy Kabonde on UCZ’s Golden Jubilee Anniversary obtained by QFM News, Mr. Lungu says in the PF, they believe in the separation of State and Religion but fully committed to values of Christianity, the pre-dominant faith for the majority of people.
Mr. Lungu says politicians rely on the Church to counsel all of them to avoid any action and behavior that may put the security of the country at risk.
Mr. Lungu says the interventions of the church to help the state resolve the many challenges that afflict the people such as prevalence of poverty, illiteracy, early marriages, poor sanitation, unemployment, corruption, poor social services, HIV/AIDS, gender based violence, and child abuse among others are commendable.
He says the leadership of the Church is critically needed to entrench the desired virtues of integrity and ethical conduct.
He notes that as the largest Protestant church in Zambia, with as many as 3,000 000 members, the UCZ continues to inspire many with its extraordinary theme of unity which has held the church together.
The PF President believes that it is possible to create a more just and caring society, a society in which every honest individual willing to work hard can hope for and attain a better life.
Mr. Lungu says the PF advocates for the poor and marginalized, the dispossessed, orphans and widows, as well the physically challenged.
And Mr. Lungu has also wished Chipolopolo boys the best lucky as they participate in the Africa Cup of nations which have kicked off this evening in Equatorial Guinea.

UCZ choirmasters are masters in impregnanting 10’s of 1000’s of Zambia’s virgins!!
They move from congregation to congregation living behind very disturbed young girls who’s lives they have forever damaged.
Most of Zambia’s unwanted pregnancies are a result of older church members sexually abusing young vulnerable girls!!

GBM RECEIVES A PRESIDENTIAL AND HEROES’ WELCOME IN NAKONDE, AS HE PROVES TO BE FAR MORE POPULAR THAN EDGAR LUNGU.
This afternoon close to Ten Thousand people accorded GBM a welcome befitting a seating Head of State when they turned up to witness GBM’s Political Rally in Nakonde. The five OP Officers and 20 Senior PF Members who attended GBM’s Nakonde Rally were surprised and shocked that the number of people who attended GBM/UPND’s rally was almost 4 time as many as compared to th that had earlier attended Edgar Lungu’s rally on 5th January 2015 and 10 times many than those that attended FDD’s Edith Nawakwi’s rally 2 weeks ago in Nakonde.
A lot of people including many high ranking PF district members were shocked to witness a sea of people which GBM was able to command and were heard admitting that HH will win the Tuesday Presidential Elections with a wide margin against his closest rival Edgar Lungu of PF
GBM has proved that he is more popular than Edgar Lungu going by the number of people that turned up for his first rally in nakonde. He arrived in Nakonde at Ntindi Secondary School Ground at exactly 17:15 hours and was surged by thousands of supporters who flashed the UPND symbol in solidarity with him.
And addressing thousands of Nakonde Residents this afternoon, GBM said that he decided to support and campaign for HH after the current PF President Edgar Lungu sidelined him in his campaigns. He told Nakonde Residents that he joined politics not to enrich himself but to serve the Zambian People and Nakonde People in particular. He said that when he resigned as the Defense Minister he did not suffer because he already had money which he made through his clean business. He condemned Edgar Lungu for thinking that PF belonged to him and sidelined founding members of the party. He added that Edgar Lungu is now feeling his wait and heat, no wander he is now panicking. He further told thousands of the residents that Edgar Lungu will lose the coming elections and appealed to Nakonde residents not to remain behind but be among the winning team of the In Coming President Hakainde Hichilema. He pledged to go back to Nakonde to thank the residents for the winning votes that they will give HH/UPND in Tuesday’s Presidential Polls.
And when word went round that GBM was in Nakonde, a large column of people started flocking to Ntindi School Ground, a school which is less than 1km away from Tanzania. It is the first time in since independence for the Helicopter to land at Ntindi School and residents felt honored by GBM’ss visit hence their pledge to vote for HH the candidate GBM is supporting.
And the PF Nakonde District veteran Political Analyst Dr. Royd Siwale admitted that GBM was 4 times popular in Nakonde than PF Presidential Candidate Edgar Chagwa Lungu. He wondered how thousands of people could attend Lungu’s rallies compared to just a handful of the Nakonde Residents and those that were ferried from the neighboring Tanzania who attended Lungu’s rally on 5th January 2015.
He added that if the political rallies were the best means of analyzing the popularity of any presidential candidate, then HH is going to beat Edgar Lungu by getting 74% while Edgar Lungu will be languishing in 26%. In short in Nakonde Edgar Lungu as an individual is embarrassing not popular as compared to GBM and UPND/ HH in particular, but PF as a party is still considerably popular than Edgar Lungu himself no wander very few turned up for his rally as compared to thousands that turned up for GBM’s today Nakonde Rally.

Attention fellow PF Members and Supporters,
Please take this urgently & seriously;
There is a leaking intelligence report which is suggesting that the UPND President Hakainde Hichilema may be declared winner of the next Tuesday (20.01.2015) Presidential Elections.
According to the classified document, our President Edgar Lungu may lose due to violence which most Zambians now believe is instigated by our carders.
The report indicates in parts that HH may win mainly because of the violence and Boko Haram Tag that Hon Lungu has been forced to wear.
The report which is circulating seems to be authentic. I am afraid if we relax as PF, we will be doomed.
According to the report, HH is expected to beat Edgar Lugu by getting 37.4% while Honorable Edgar Lungu is expected to get 35.8%. If we as PF we do not do anything, then HH is Winning with a comfortable margin.
In short, there is a big and high possibility that HH will be our next President after next week’s elections.
I now call on all loving PF Members country wide to do anything best to reverse this eminent lose.
Please let us work hard though time has now ran out to see whether we can retrieve our party from oblivion.
Things on the ground are not well with us. If anything, we are now winding up i government and UPND is succeeding us on Tuesday. Please take my warning seriously.
Please Vote Edgar Lungu for Presidency.
