Africa-Press – Zambia. In a shocking turn of events, Miles Sampa, who earlier was declared the President of the Patriotic Front (PF), has been expelled from the party for his alleged election and declaration as the winner at a highly controversial and potentially illegal extraordinary General Conference. The situation has sent shockwaves through the PF and has triggered a wave of confusion and uncertainty within the party.
The expulsion came following a stern letter from the alleged illegal acting President of the Party, Mr. Given Lubinda by Miles sampa, who cited multiple violations of the party’s constitution and accused Sampa of gross misconduct. Lubinda’s letter, which references Article 61 of the party constitution, declared Sampa’s expulsion on the grounds of breaching regulation 29 (a), (b), (c), and (d) of the party constitution. These actions were related to Sampa’s organization of an unsanctioned and illegal extraordinary General Conference, which was seen as a direct challenge to the party’s established leadership.
The ongoing turmoil within the PF is becoming increasingly convoluted, with questions arising about the party’s leadership and its commitment to adhering to its own constitution. Miles Sampa’s assertion that the current acting party President holds office unlawfully only adds to the complexity of the situation, hinting at potential legal disputes within the party.
In an intriguing twist, Royd Moonga, a member of the United Party for National Development (UPND), expressed his astonishment at being listed as a PF Presidential candidate, purportedly by the illegal General Conference. Moonga made it clear that he had recently rejoined the UPND and was no longer associated with the PF. This revelation intensifies the mystery and raises suspicions that Miles Sampa may have secured his alleged victory at an extraordinary General Conference populated predominantly by UPND and non-PF members.
As the drama continues to unfold in the ever-evolving Zambian political landscape, stay tuned for further updates, as many questions remain unanswered and the future of the PF remains uncertain.
