Easterners Are Regretting For Voting For The PF- Chuzu

What is abnormal is seen  normal by this government, United Party for National Development (UPND) Chairperson for Youth Sports and Child Development(YSCD), Michael Chuzu has  charged.

And Mr Chuzu says people of  Eastern Province who depend largely on farming are regretting  for voting for the Patriotic Front(PF) who have punished farmers by reducing the maize floor price.

Reacting to the Teaching Service Commission of Zambia (TSCZ)’s move to pardon teachers with dubious education qualifications, Mr Chuzu said “that is not surprising in the chipantepante   PF regime.”

He said it is sad that the commission  could allow an  illegality to go unpunished.

“What is happening is that we have teachers who have bogus certificates. They are guilty of forging certificates but this government is saying that it is okay. Let them continue teaching. What kind of pupils can they produce if they stole results. In the UPND, we are not going to tolerate that,” he said.

Mr Chuzu added that the other abnormality   that was viewed normal by the PF was when President Edgar Lungu refused to step down to allow  Speaker Patrick Matibin  to act as President  when Hakainde Hichilema and Geoffrey Bwalya Mwamba handed in a Presidential Petition.

“The Judicial Complaint Commission(JCC) ruled that (President) Lungu erred when he refused to step aside when the Presidential Petition was presented. In short, he is the one who  committed treason, not Hakainde Hichilema,”  Mr Chuzu said.

Meanwhile, the UPND Member of the National Management Committee(NMC) says the people of Eastern Province made a ‘grave’mistake by  voting  for the PF which has killed the spirit of farmers by reducing the maize floor price from K85 to K60.

He said the province has suffered  consequences of voting for the PF.

“The people of Eastern Province don’t easily change political parties. They assess properly before supporting a candidate but this time around they threw themselves in the ditch by voting for the PF which has destroyed farming. Mind you, we in the  Eastern Province depend on farming. I went to school because of farming. Our parents could sell maize, groundnuts and sunflower for us  to get educated. So it hurts me when I see the price of maize being reduced to K60,” he complined.
