Movement for National Transformation(MNT)  is willing and will support governments efforts to implement the 7th National Development Plan, but contends that it is not good enough for Zambia 53 years after independence.

Whereas, the plan to make our nation a middle- income country, is a short- term goal embedded in the plan, it fails to meet the ultimate desire and aspirations of the Zambian people. The ultimate goal and vision of any nation is to become the best nation for its own good. It seems all previous governments have failed to generate vision consensus from the Zambian people, and have opted to copy and paste policies that lack national character and consensus. That is why after the launch of the 7 th NDP,  targets were not included for various local communities as oversights,  that now the Ministry for National planning is going back spending more money from stakeholders and themselves to get those communities to submit their targets that must be harmonized with the five pillars of the said plan.

The Movement for National Transformation MNT has an alternative compelling plan and vision to take Zambia to the ultimate of development which is first world. First world is ultimate vision for nations not a relative a vision, first world is about an advanced economy and an aggressively industrialised nation,as opposed to the historical eastern and western block NATO for any nation. The path we have trodden this far as a Nation of piece meal “false relative development” is not good enough for a nation that has remained a perpetual potential. It is the plan for the Movement for National Transformation MNT Founding President Daniel Mvula shimunza, to lead Zambia to first world in 2021 and beyond. Third world infrastructure and roads is undesirable. Third world is the reason why we are still in statistical false  economic growth,  which does not manifest in real improvement of the quality of life of the Zambian people. MNT is determined to bring the economy into a path of exponential growth by fiscal discipline and macroeconomic strategic initiatives that innovate, create decent jobs by state crafting as indicated in our party  constitution which many now are copying. We have to face the devil squarely that seeks to keep us in third world mediocrity as a nation.

This advanced first world economic program and aggressive industrialisation is embedded in our party constitution as a pledge we make to the zambian people as our vision. After winning elections in 2021 we have a constitutional mandate within the first 100 days as a party to set our great nation on the Path to first world status by a National statecrafting convention with various stake holders both within and the diaspora to craft Zambia into a national transformation agenda such as never seen since 1964. It is for this ultimate goal that the Movement for National Transformation MNT is the new breed and brains for 21st century transformative leadership that will be competitive and comparatively dominant for the glory of God and our nation. The recycled politicians must be retired who have no new ideas. Political parties that have sole candidates are undemocratic and bent on power politics that have failed us since 1964.  The difference between sole- candidate political parties and the Kaunda led one party state of dictatorial deception is that whereas Kaunda ruled formally by coercion under the guise of Unity,  these sole- candidate political parties hide under the veil of democracy but impose all policy directives to their style of one- man show intra- party undemocratic practices of human cult worship that manifests in Ministers praising their leaders, on the other hand,  overly projecting a leader as a demigod of human pontificates.

Our alternative plan therefore, includes the following:

1. Transformation of government from Caderism to corporate governance best practices

2. Removing the party from government functions for professional civil service of technocrats

3. Transforming our judiciary and criminal justice system to best first world practices

4. Transformation of our police force and services as first world security for law enforcement and order

5. Transformation of our foreign policy to be competitive and comparatively dominant

6. Aggressive industrialisation and advancement of our economy with new initiatives from 2021

7. Transformation of electoral commission of Zambia to be independent

8. Transformation of first world airforce,  military and national service to maintain our Sovereignty

9. Aggressively diversify our industrial economic strength from the mining policy to new innovative trends in agriculture,  tourism, health and education to boot people from lower echelons of life.

10. Transformation of outward looking policies of dependency, to inward internal capacity, competencies and sustainable development.

11. Government  corruption will in 100 days be dealt with after forming the first ever first world government since 1964. We call every Zambian who wants to see our nation as the best in Africa and the world to join us in this alternative for 2021 and beyond. In the last elections Zambia has been divided by about 4 million people in the dominant political parties who are still failing to Dialogue, reconcile and serve the nation, by putting their country first. Zambia is almost now almost 17 million people being highjacked by 4 million people by the two dominant parties is unfair.

12. Transformation of our negative culture created by recycled politicians who have mastered the art of violence. Any party leaders who use cadres and youths in electoral violence must be marked by all Zambians and denied votes in 2021. If they cannot control their cadres, how can they unify the nation.

MNT is determined to establish a new state crafting agenda for Zambia. We must restore our constitutional democracy anchored on the rule of law, civil freedoms , happiness, love peace and security.
