UPND President Hakainde Hichilema has urged party members to support the candidature of Charmaine Musonda as the party’s candidate in the forthcoming Chilanga parliamentary by-election.
Mr Hichilema says Ms Musonda proved popular in the primary elections and deserved the adoption.
He says though some individual leaders at various levels may have their own views, in a democratic process, it is always important to listen and respect the views of everyone, especially the grassroots who form the backbone of the party.
Mr. Hichilema says with the UPND being the current party of choice, it is to be expected that competition is high among the many citizens who want to serve Zambians at various levels under its banner.
He has since called on all UPND supporters and sympathizers across the country to rally behind Ms Musonda’s candidature.
And Mr. Hichilema has thanked UPND Lusaka Province Chairperson Obvious Mwaliteta for showing true leadership in the period leading up to the adoption process for the Chilanga parliamentary by-election.
Nine candidates have successfully filed their nominations for the by-election slated for June 6.

HH,this is the dumbest decision youve ever made since you started politics!!
Sorry ba President…….this time you are wrong Sir. Hule ni Hule
This is the worst decision ever made. ” is the private life of a director private? Association with this kind of behaving paints a bad picture of the party. All the best.
It’s like asking people to support a wrong.
Good luck to all candidates. Bottom line however is that politics is about uplifting people’s lives & 1 can only do this if they have strong (not best) moral compass. Facts can never lie. 3 families have been grieved & 1 life has already been lost in circumstances UPND candidate was involved. Another life may soon be lost if Supreme Court confirms sentence. All these were not accidents but deliberate decisions made using moral compass. What people see is selfishness and lack of care for others. Can such candidate suddenly become compassionate about other people? Only God knows!
WHICH CHOICE HAS BEEN THE BEST FOR THE OTHERS? HH IS DOING JUST THE RIGHT THING IN THIS CASE COZNTHAT IS THE WAY IT GOES- TAKE IT OR LEAVE IT. IF WE WERE TO GO DEEPER INTO LIVES OF MANY OF THESE MPs ,U DISCOVER MANY AINT WORTH REPRESENTING US BUT KAILI NI AFRICAN POLITICS
