PF ACTING PRESIDENT ROBERT M. CHABINGA ADDRESSES PRESS IN MAFINGA PROVINCE
October 8th, 2025- Mafinga
In a press briefing held this morning in Mafinga Province, PF Acting President Robert M Chabinga addressed various pressing issues, offering guidance and asserting the party’s stance on several matters. Here are the key points from the briefing:
Chabinga advised against letting emotions dictate actions, particularly when it comes to court cases. He emphasized the importance of approaching legal matters with a level head.
The acting president dismissed claims of power hunger, stating, “I’m not power hungry at all.” He highlighted that the PF’s alliance is with the UPND, not TONSE, clarifying the party’s political stance.
Chabinga drew a distinction between Zambia and Malawi, emphasizing their differences. He expressed confidence in Zambia’s economic progress under President HH’s leadership.
The PF acting president praised the Constituency Development Fund (CDF), stating it’s doing very well. He credited President HH as a “proper economical driver,” expressing optimism about the country’s economic trajectory.
In a stern warning, Chabinga announced that the PF Secretariat would be closed immediately upon his return to Lusaka. This move suggests a renewed focus on party operations and discipline.
Chabinga called on the church to pray for the country as it approaches elections, acknowledging the significance of this period.
The acting president dismissed the TONSE alliance as a “non-starter,” questioning the logic of seeking guidance from those he deemed unprepared to offer it.
Chabinga reaffirmed the party’s support for President HH, stating, “You don’t change the winning team.” He emphasized that the focus should be on the 2031 elections, rather than 2026, solidifying his stance on the current administration.

Koma Chibinga you’re a strong leader hey. Ndipo bali mu chibe ba fake PF
Chabinga has more power than anyone else in Zambia, it seems. I mean, who can ignore 42 missed calls from a dictator? Ka kunkubiti is running the country for sure. Do not be fooled by the extra small packaging that he is. He is like a pit bull for sure. He looks like one as well.
COPY AND PASTE SOUTHERN PROVINCE.
REJECT TRIBALISM, CORRUPTION AND OPPRESSION.
UMUFULO PA MUFULO.
VOTE FOR CHANGE IN 2026.
Mr. Chabinga just announce your defection to UPND. You cannot say you are an opposition leader and then you support everything the government does and you are in alliance with the government. We need a reasonable opposition in Zambia, not your nonsense. I am not UPND and I can never support PF, but I want an alternative to UPND. We have a vacuum of leadership in Zambia.
If PF are not careful, there will be no PF candidates of any sort on the ballot for 2026, be it Presidential, MP, Councilor, under PF. That is if Chabinga goes into an alliance and does not participate in elections as PF because usually alliance partners do not have party candidates of their own party, you see.
I wonder if the Kakunkubiti was a renegade UPND member during the time the ‘ Terror ‘ organization was in Opposition. Attempting to close the UPND Secretariat, being imposed by Speaker Matibini as Leader of the Opposition, Dr Edgar Chagwa Lungu changing the UPND officials at the Registrar of Societies and removing Hakainde Hichilema as President of the Party for some Kakunkubiti… What could have happened if what is being done to the Patriotic Front was done to the UPND during the time this ‘ Bantustan ‘Party was in Opposition?
Zambia could have been on Fire! We could have become an equivalent of Gaza or even worse.
