The Zambian DNA is appalled and disappointed that UPND leader Hakainde Hichilema has rejected the UPND/PF Youth Peace Accord.
Like many Zambians, were comforted that there will be no longer political violence perpetuated by political cadres but now we have been taken aback by Hichilema who has u-turned on the Youth Peace Accord.
However, we are confident that Zambians, including UPND members believe in peace and will not be swayed by one man’s selfish agenda against national interest. It is most unfortunate that the UPND leader has u-turned on the Youth Peace Accord at a critical stage of National Dialogue and Reconciliation Process. However, we give koodos to President Edgar Lungu and the governing PF for being consistent in preaching peace and unity, anchored on the Moto “One Zambia One Nation”. It is our hope and prayer that Zambians will ignore these selfish political leaders who are fanning chaos, confusion and promoting violence in the country.
