Namwala Member of Parliament (MP) Major Robbie Chizhuyuka has advised the Patriotic Front (PF), partner in the UPND/PF Pact, to wake up and stop basking in past glory.

Major Chizhuyuka said that the PF’s performance in the just ended national wide elections was dismal and pose a danger to the Pact adding that failure by the PF to win the Chitambo seat where Mr. Sata’s wife hails from is a clear open rejection of the party in that area.

The Namwala MP has expressed happiness with the performance of UPND in just ended parliamentary and local government by-elections in some parts of the country.

He said the United Party for National Development (UPND) came out as the largest winner of the three contestant parties in Southern Province by winning all the seven contested wards including Maramba, and Itebe which were held by the MMD.

Major Chizhuyuka stated that the UPND took all the three wards in Mumbwa, Nangoma and Nambala constituencies which were being defended by the MMD.

He added that in North Western province the UPND won two of the three wards including in Solwezi which was also the strong hold for the MMD.

Major Chizhuyuka further said this was a clearly indication of the good performance of the UPND camp.
