United Party for National Development(UPND) president Hakainde Hichilema writes:

Working round the clock to put a smile on every child and citizen of our country remains our central focus.

We will tactfully handle our country’s social, economic and political challenges while embracing all progressive ideas as opposed to only claiming sovereignty but on the other hand defending those against democracy, rule of law, human rights, freedoms and liberties.

We shall make Zambia a true haven of peace, stability, unity and development for all.

And again, the youths, women and all party members go out and mobilise our party for it is darker before dawn.
