In its typical dreaming-like style, the opposition United Party for National Development (UPND) claims President Edgar Lungu is not a threat in their way to assuming power in the 2016 polls.
Edwin Lifwekelo, the UPND deputy spokesperson, says the party the party is not intimidated by the decision by the ruling Patriotic Front to adopt President Edgar Lungu as its presidential candidate for the 2016 General Elections.
Lifwekelo claims it will be easier for the UPND to remove the PF from office because of the failure by President Lungu to manage the affairs of the country.
He has challenged the PF government to even call for early elections so that they exit office soon.
Lifwekelo has also lashed out at PF Secretary General Davies Chama that it is not his responsibility to tell the party to go to the national convention.
He says the ruling party is afraid of the UPND president Hakainde Hichilema and that is why they want another candidate to stand on the UPND ticket.
Lifwekelo says the opposition political party has no intentions of fielding another candidate saying they have confidence in the four time losing Hichilema as he will no doubt win next year’s general elections.
Lifwekelo says the failure by President Lungu to manage the country’s economy will cost him next year considering that he will be competing with someone who has the capacity to boost Zambia’s economy.
