PF Copperbelt chairman Stephen Kainga has ordered the ruling party’s cadres to stop wearing black berets with the green inscription ‘100 per cent PF’.
And Kainga has apologised unreservedly and condemned attacks on UPND leader Hakainde Hichilema by PF cadres when he visited Kitwe. Kainga said the PF berets were being used by unknown people for criminal activities. Armed PF thugs on Wednesday evening attacked Hichilema and his entourage on their way to a live programme on Radio Icengelo. In an interview, Kainga said it was regrettable that some PF cadres felt that they were above the law. “What happened on Wednesday evening is regrettable.
I must in the first place condemn those PF cadres for their bad behaviour. This issue of putting on berets should come to an end because we cannot differentiate between true members of the PF and some unscrupulous people committing crime in the name of the party,” he said. “Berets are being used wrongly in the name of PF. I, therefore, order all cadres to stop wearing them. Many people are putting on berets and doing evil things in the name of our distinguished party.”
Kainga, who was also summoned by the police for questioning over the attacks on Hichilema, said PF cadres should not feel that they were above the law. But UPND Copperbelt deputy spokesperson Lawrence Mwanza said the PF was resorting to violence because they had run out of ideas. “Nothing will stop the people of Zambia from voting out the PF. These are kicks of a dying horse.
Enough is enough and time for PF to go is 2016,” Mwanza said. He said no amount of violence or intimidation would stop the people of Zambia from voting the PF out. “We are prepared for these PF thugs but we will not act now. They will not manage to kill us all in this country. The revolution is now big and they just need to prepare to leave and not resort to violence,” said Mwanza.

Bwana kainga, no need to bother about barets, let them continue so that we can easily identify them, and let them always pray to God never to cross my path.

Violence should be condemned to the fullest level, no country has ever developed using violence means. I argue all PF cadres to embrace peace when ever they are provoked. Let us be Peace loving and respecting people. Let our campaigns be issue based not violence. Not even the late SATA(MHSRIP) would allow such behaviour. Let’s us show the opposition that we can do better than the negative they see in us. PEACE SHOULD BE OUR MOTO!

I respect you for apologising and accepting that your cadres are violent in nature. However, we do understand that certain groups of people tend to take advantage of group memberships inorder to create chaos. We ask you to look deep inside yourselves as a party and solve your internal issues amicably. We the UPND are here to offer advice and support should it be needed. You could use the UPND as a case study of a party that is violence free. Please take heart. To the rest of the population we say vote upnd for peace unity and love in 2016

So, what are you going to do about the thugs? Come door-to-door? Ask us, the thugs, to like you official Facebook page? Ask the thugs to visit your official www? Lastly, does my thugery end at joining upnd or you shall label me as upnd’s ex-thug? MWAITAYA!!!!

Come 2016,HH will definitely win as Zambians are awakening from their political comatoses!

kiki MCCM long time my brother. I think it is evident for all to see on the ground that indeed things are changing. Also, just take the micro level of tumfweko where you can see a large group of people have defected in support of UPND. At the end of the day you have the right to support PF and we cannot force you to change. However, all we can do is try and make you see why we think we are better for zambia. You are still my brother and I thank you for your debates.

I now support UPND because they will always think about any trash & believe it is the cream. Then they will repeat themselves a myriad times and convince themselves that they are the best on the planet. After that, they will not tolerate anyone that has a different view.
May I declare myself as becoming devoid of logical thought? Nope! We have seen these revolutions, winds of change, mood changes they preach about! Reality always sets in when their flights find no wanting space anywhere near plot 1, independence avenue

@BaKaonde, That makes the two of us! This hakainde ‘life president’ of upnd came in through trickery. And he continues along the same path. The path of thinking any goon with money can rule Zambia. Just see them. All positions of leadership at the top level are hakainde appointees. What convention or electoral college in upnd fused in Dr C. Banda as vice presdo, Nalumango as National Chair, Tekere as senior member & presidential advisor & this tumfweko ward chairman who chases reason?

HH has recruited a replica of PF cadres and using them as his attacker. This is a mechanism that Canicias Banda crafted.
