HH Confident Of Winning 2016 Polls
United Party for National Development (UPND) President Hakainde Hichilema says the 2016 elections will be easier for him to win given the current adversities in the country.
Mr. Hichilema says it is a known fact that the PF will struggle to convince the people to keep them in office in view of the current economic and social challenges the country is facing.
He says the high cost of living, failure to deal with the energy deficit, the volatility of the kwacha; high fertilizer fuel prices are some of the things which will haunt the ruling party in 2016.
Mr. Hichilema is confident that the people of Zambia will vote on merit in the 2016 elections and not the way they voted in January where they voted for PF out of sympathy.
He states that most people have confessed that his earlier warning about the PF was genuine after witnessing the suffering they have been subjected to.
Mr Hichilema says given this background, he feels that the people of Zambia have leant lessons from the mistake they made and will vote on merit next year.

What justification is there to show that HH can perform better than Lungu? Learn from Tanzania and be wise.

If it was about learning from Tanzania, we should have never voted out UNIP or even MMD.

iwe Zambians are not that stupid to let a party be in power for 54 years, even if PF was given billions of dollars and 200 years to run this country, Zambia would still remain what it is today,a third world country.

if pf have failed & I must vote, it will not be for upnd. if 2016 will be like 1991 when pipo were fed up of unip, then pf will lose. however 5 yrs of pwr of pf is not long enough to judge pf. to use issues like load shedding to gain political milleage is cheap propaganda. can Mr HH visit barotse plains (his ‘stronghold’ ) & see how dry the plains are & show pf caused that.

So many people are disappointed with the current PF.HH is indeed likely to win next year.I’m currently on the Copperbelt and I’m surprised to see how people have switched camps.

Why should upnd be so happy that our people are faced with hadship caused by global economy down turn such as low copper prices which has led to closure of mines not only in zambia but other countries as well.

It’s better to dream than not to, it’s better to have a vision than be visionless and lead people.
That low level kind of thinking and lack of understanding of issues not just in such cadres, but the people who are in leadership today is what is costing the nation and driving it in reverse gear.

Why should HH wait for problems of this nature the country is facing to say he will win the presidency? For me, HH has not provided the solutions to these problems Zambia is facing. So its a tinkling symbol.
Judge Joe Bidden

Is HH the president to provide solutions? If opposition should be providing solutions what’s the use of change of Govt?

I thank HH for his unwavering comfidence. IT is everlasting. 4 times it has failed him, and he sells it today. Last year it was the wrangles in PF & his headstart that gave him the confidence. Now it is load shedding & prices?
I hope it works for him. Its quite pitiful!

SORRY FOR THIS. MAYBE THOSE WHO ARE SUPPORTING ECL ARE PAID FROM HIS CHANGE AFTER BOOKING AN EXPENSIVE JET AND THEY EAT THE LEFT OVERS FROM HIS TABLE. LET THESE YAPING FOOLS SUPPORTING PF GO IN THE VILLAGES AND SEE HOW PEOPLE ARE SUFFERING. SOMEONE WITH A DEGREE HAVE NO WORK JUST BCOZ WEN U GO IN THE PF OFFICES ITS WAKO NI WAKO, IF U’RE A LADY, UNLESS YOUR NAKEDNESS IS SEEN THAT’S WEN U ARE GIVEN WEK. THEIR RELATIVES WHO HAD FAILED GRADE 12, ARE SENT IN RURAL AREAS WHERE THEY ARE NOT RECOGNISED TO WEK FROM THERE ON HIGH POSITIONS WITHOUT TRAINING SO THAT THEY PURSUED THEIR EDUCATION TO GET PROPER PAPERS. PEOPLE WITH RECOMMENDABLE PAPERS ARE LEFT OUT TO SUFFER JUST BCOZ OF WAKO NI WAKO AS THE PRESIDO SAID WAY BACK IN HIS SPEECH. THEN WHERE DO YOU SAY HE IS DOING SOMETHING GOOD? ITS FOR PF CADRES ONLY NOT ANY OTHER PERSON TO WEK IN GVT OFFICE NOT EVEN SWEEPING THE ROADS IN TOWN ITS PF, ROAD CONTRACT 95% ARE PF CADRES, HOW DO SAY ECL IS FAIR? WE NEED CHANGE NO MATTER WHAT.
Hello Haters
October 31, 2015 at 6:21 am
If you think people are only dissatisfied about loadshedding and prices, you WRONG, PF has failed everything politically ,socially and economically , the only thing they have achieved is turn Zambians against one another,a divided people can’t achieve anything, point at one thing that pf has achieved?

It’s vital to have dissimilar opinions, in fact that’s real democracy. One is entitled to ones opinion and it’s imperative that we respect the opinions of others but should desist by all means from using derogatory or disparaging remarks.

in 2011 change was visible and it gained momentum as the voting period was aproaching, now im suprizd we only have a few months before the elections and i cant see anything similar to what i saw in 2011 elections. What i mean is, i cant see or experience that 2011 wind/mood of change in the forth coming polls. 2016 is like tomoro somebody help me where is that change some people here are talking about.

Frank Talk does not break friendship….HH has not convinced me on wat he wants to do for the nation wen he becomes president,not even his die hard carders lyk NEZ,The great one,kays,Hidden objects etc,wat u owz say is kwacha fall,load shedding,mealie meal prices,suffering etc,suppose b4 sept 2016,things gets to normal wat are u going to base ur talk on?Let us be factual in watever we say than bein hurtfull…….Lets appriciate the good things govt in doing eg infrastructure developments,road constructions,hospitals,schools & advise were possible lyk the draft constitution ….things that builds the nation!!!
We all knw loadshedding we can blame PF,its beyond our means there is no water to propel the turbens .some will say why not buy new equipments & increase the production of power?but why should a responsible govt waste money on the equipments or on a document lyk constitution & let its citizens die of poverty,so better going to the kopala address the mine owners not to retrench the worker,increase their pay etc,thats puting foood on the table of a hard working miner ,who has a family to look after,nit the UPNDs who owz cerebrates wen they hear a price increase in fuel or ubunga..zambia vote wisely.

Let us be factual in the way we analyse issues let us not be hurtful, after all we are one Zambia one Nation. remember that after elections we shall come back and have things to do together, now if we insult one another, because of small small monies which the political leaders are giving us, how are we preserving this great nation for our children???
Galatians 5:14-15
14 For the entire law is fulfilled in keeping this one command: “Love your neighbor as yourself.”[a] 15 If you bite and devour each other, watch out or you will be destroyed by each other.
If i have made a mistake, correct me, give me checks and balances unlike insulting me coz i will not realize my mistake, no one was born to be a leader, its a learning process. Even the people whom we recommended before of doing good have disappointed us before. so let us help build Zambia and not destroy it.
let us continue leaving at peace, the peace which our forefathers fought for us. If they lived the way we are living now do you think we could have found a better Zambia??? do you think you will leave a legacy for your children to reckon at??? before you even think of attacking your brother, remember that “LET LOVE LEAD”.
The republican president, has never been a president before, its his first time, equally all the other opposition leaders, have never been presidents before, they are trying to see what they can offer to the nation. let us not judge anyone or condemn, but let us help where possible for the betterment of our mother Zambia.
If hurt continues we will surely kill each other.
am non – partisan am just watching from afar.
Let us be careful with social media, they are just playing with our minds so that we should hate each other. they are kandiles(“drop a dime”) . be warned. you will hurt the person who you are not even supposed to hurt.
