Lies against Sata, PF won’t work - Inonge

LIES and mudslinging against Michael Sata and the PF will not save Rupiah Banda from a humiliating defeat in Western Province next year, says Inonge Wina.

In an interview, Wina who is PF national chairperson said the confusion emanating from the Western Province was as a result of the under development due to several unfulfilled promises made prior to the 2006 and the 2008 presidential elections.

Wina said PF had done serious work in Western Province and that the general outlook of the party was far much better than in the past.

She said politics of mudslinging Sata with lies in some regions was long gone because people in all regions had realised that the opposition leader was a poor peoples’ man.

“PF will really rise from the ashes in Western Province. You see, people have a notion that people in Western Province don’t like PF but wait for next year, the results will tell you a different story. We will definitely state our position in the province, because you know previously the MMD had mounted a very obnoxious campaign against PF leader Mr Sata portraying him as a bad person but later people realised that the MMD feasted on their votes because much of the area is rural but we have moved and all the districts are giving us very good indications,” Wina said.

She said MMD officials themselves confirmed early this year that the area was underdeveloped because the MMD did not fulfill its electoral promises.

She said people swallowed the MMD propaganda but they had now vomited and President Rupiah Banda was feeling the heat of their vomit.

Wina said the Levy Mwanawasa factor played a big role in the voting pattern in 2008 but that people were seeing a complete shift from the vigorous corruption fight that the late president put up to the current tolerance of corrupt elements under President Banda’s regime.
