TUTWA NGULUBE HAS VINDICATED UPND ON PF LIES AND INCOMPETENCE IN THE AGRO SECTOR
====================
We have always said the PF and the entire leadership is composed of crooks and incompetent leaders, yet some citizens have not taken us seriously.

The revelation by PF Kabwe Central Member of Parliament Tutwa Ngulube that the agriculture sector has collapsed is spot. It is also vindicating our initial position on failure by the PF not to only come up with clear economic policies , but to lie to the millions of Zambians on their capacity to deliver.

It is clear that the PF has never had an agenda for this country.

Infact Mr Tutwa Ngulube should be reminded that the PF has no clear policies on agriculture.

It is evident on their failure to deliver agro inputs on time and their failure to administer the e-voucher system. The PF agenda is only to steal public funds through the purchase of fertiliser, ambulances and fire tenders at unreasonable prices.

By now many Zambians know that the PF agenda for the nation is theft of Public Resources not development.

Mr Tutwa Ngulube must be commended for echoeing our earlier submission.

We call upon all those PF MPs who mean well for the elctorate to emulate Tutwa Ngulube.

This is what we have been talking about that there is need for all parliamentarians to represent the aspirations of the people not their personal agrandisement.

We demand that Agriculture Minister Dora Siliya becomes more responsive to the cries of the farmers in the country.

She has been an absentee minister for a long time.

But it not surprising because she was appointed by an absentee president.

It is regretable that farmers have suffered a lot under Edgar Lungu and his PF.

Edgar Lungu does not mean well for the farmers.

He started by destroying the agricultural sector when he reduced the floor price of maize to k60 without considering the cost of producing maize.

This is what happens when you assume leadership through a stolen election.

You end up going into government without a vision.
