LUBINDA SLAMS LIST OF ALLIANCE LEADERS RELEASED BY ZUMANI AND TEMBO
TONSE Alliance Acting Chairperson Given Lubinda has poured cold water on the list of purported Tonse Alliance leaders released by Chris Zumani Zimba and Sean Tembo, saying the names carry no authority.
Appearing on Diamond TV’s Breakfast Show, Mr Lubinda says that only the Secretary General of the Tonse Council of Leaders, Raphael Nakacinda, has the mandate to call meetings or issue official statements on behalf of the Alliance.
He explained that the Tonse Alliance had not found it necessary to convene a meeting this time around because the internal issues affecting the Patriotic Front were purely administrative.
He further dismissed the justification that the late Chairperson, Edgar Lungu, had sanctioned the list, stressing that any information outside the Secretary General’s office cannot be attached to the Council of Leaders.
This come barely days after confusion erupted at the residence of Sean Tembo, where a scheduled press briefing by a section of Alliance leaders was disrupted by cadres believed to be linked to the Patriotic Front.
The chaos is growing within the Alliance, with competing camps vying to assert control over leadership structures.

This is looking like the beginning of the downfall of Hon Brian Mundubile’s political Aspirations.
One thing I have observed about the Patriotic Front members is the loyalty they have to Legitimate Leaders.
Miles Sampa and Robert Chabinga have discovered in a hard way that PF members cant easily be swayed to shift allegiance to structures not sanctioned by the Party Leadership.
The Patriotic Front members were told that the NCP was going to be the special purpose vehicle for the Patriotic Front. And once this was communicated to the members , the support was given as seen in Bye Elections where NCP participated.
The path Hon Mundubile has chosen, by aligning himself with zeros, who are even manufacturing fake lists, and attributing them to a Dead person, is suicidal.
We will see how he will come out of this.
PF leaders and Tonse Leaders seem to be claiming firsthand information from the Godfather himself. They know where he is. Let them all go to him and seek guidance then come tell their cadres, if at all they will.
Prodigal son. Come back to warmth.
So, Reverend Peter Chanda, President of NCP has spoken loud and clear. NCP is the anchor party for PF of Raphael Nakachinda and Given Lubinda. PF has only to elect a Presidential candidate for adoption under NCP. Needless to say that Tonse Alliance is nothing without PF. Sean Tembo, Cris Zumani, KBF are all small parties with no significance without PF.
This is no different from the first factions of 2015 PF with Lungu! This circus of people pretending to be leaders is only hellbent on putting their hands on looting resources if voters make a mistake of putting them in power again. There’s no leadership talent, no policies, but just fighting to get the presidential position! They are dead wrong thinking they can pull a Lungu sangwapo and get rich quickly from public resources. They were all carried by Sata in PF. People believed in Sata and when died, people wanted to give PF a chance, little did the people know that all the remnants were just pretenders. You can count the number of party factions formed within two years involving the same characters! PF, UKA TONSE and many more. Currently PF has over 5 to 6 factions. What type governance to those thinking they need change want? Remember the fights within PF when they were in power? The fighting and sponsoring of the youth didn’t end.
I am not PF, however the survival of PF or indeed any opposition political party is cardinal to our democracy, but to come up with a false list of office bearers and claim it was personally and done alone by the deceased who then posthumously delivered it to Zumani and Tembo is self distraction and should never be tolarated by any well meaning Zambian
Well it’s time for Zambians with leadership skills and integrity to form parties and get into politics. You can’t rely on tented and corrupt people and think they can change things. I said PF, UKA and Tonse including Kalaba. Lungu and the so called Mudolo is a cabull of the same characters. So nothing will change anything. What does Nakachinda know or has? Going to lie on SABC that Lungu was poisoned?? It doesn’t matter if it’s Mundubile Sampa or Lubinda? They all don’t make sense! If Zambians want to make change government for sake of it? Let them do it! They won’t be the first people to make a poor decision! The Americans did it and the entire world is grappling with the effects. This is not a simple matter to think everything will be okay. The consequences will be deadly to contemplate.
LOL!!!
Zumani Chris Zimba.
You are a PF lead consultant.
What were your terms of reference (ToRs)?
You ceased being advisor to PF president.
Now who were you accountable to?
Who were reporting to and who were your
collaborators?
Does the consultancy override Central Party functionaries?
By now releasing the new members list, you are assuming being an
authority acting without reservations, on behalf of ECL.
Wasnt it your position to reserch and make recommendations, submit
them to the authority, ECL or no ECL, PF is supposed to have a structured
span of authority. Why did you ignore the known hierarachy by calling for
a meeting to elect new leaders? Why didnt you just submit your findings and
your recommendations to the PF/ Tonse leadership?
Whydid you Zumani choose to only work with certain individuals of the Grouping,
discarding others who were clearly working with ECL?
ECL worked and collaborated with Nakachinda and Given Lubinda. Why and how did you
drop them?
Why did you only choose to work with those who are opposed to the Lubinda and Nakachinda group?
Zumani Zimba, hasnt it clicked to you that even from the new list you unveiled, it is evident that
the PF want to continue on sidelining other Zambians apart from from Northerners and Easterners?
Are you comfortable to create another scenario where those who dont come from
the north and eastern regions should be discriminated against again as it was under Pf
especially, the time ECL was in power?
Do you really think it will ever work whereby some ZAmbians become second class to other
ZAmbians.
Are you still a PF consultant or are now leading PF by instituting the desired and delayed leadership changes?
Clarification on your new role is very important if PF is to survive as one group.
And people must tell you if you are a PF employee or just their new leader,
You have actually assumed the role of your former boss, you feel he owned PF and are now acting on
his behalf. Clarity is needed before discipline and manouvres can be implented.
