Cadres petitioning Lubinda’s removal are hired – Davis Chama

Patriotic Front suspended former Lusaka Province Chairman Davis Chama says party cadres who have petitioned Secretary General Wynter Kabimba to have Kabwata Member of Parliament Given Lubinda removed are hired by those who feel threatened by Mr. Lubinda’s hard work.

Mr. Chama has charged that the 144 petitioners do not hold the opinion of Kabwata constituency residents who hold their Member of Parliament in higher esteem and voted for him whole heartedly.

He says it is unfortunate and highly suspicious that all these developments are taking place when Mr. Lubinda who is also Foreign Affairs Minister is out of the country on official duties.

Mr. Chama says it is therefore clear that a high ranking official of the ruling party is engineering and mobilizing cadres to denounce Mr. Lubinda.

He observes denouncing Mr. Lubinda whose appointment is supported by the Republican President is merely rebelling against the appointing authority.

And Mr. Chama notes that such a development has the potential to further deepen the already existing divisions in the party.

He has since urged PF officials to stop playing to the gallery but seek to resolve internal issues privately.
