Africa-Press – Zambia. UPND Deputy Secretary General Getrude Imenda says the party is not surprised by the growing number of Patriotic Front members and other aspiring candidates seeking to contest on the UPND ticket ahead of this year’s general elections.
Ms. Imenda tells Phoenix News that the surge in interest is a clear indication that many politicians have taken note of the significant achievements the UPND has recorded since assuming office and now wish to associate themselves with the party’s governance agenda and development vision.
She adds that the UPND remains an inclusive and democratic party, open to welcoming individuals who share its values of transparency, accountability, and national unity.
Ms. Imenda further states that the various progressive programmes that the government has implemented since assuming office is making it difficult for aspirants to resist the UPND.
But Patriotic Front Deputy Secretary General for Administration, Celestine Mukandila says the party is not worried about its MPs who intend to resign and join the UPND, stressing that leadership is always evolving.
