We have the pressure from our youths and this calmness that we see from the youths is because we engage each other,\u201d he said. He also warned members of the party to desist from attacking the party and Government in public.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAs party members, we should guard against attacking the party in any way. If you\u2019re a genuine member of the party, you should guard against attacking the party and its leadership. If you attack your own political party, tell us\u2026we will give it to you. It is our responsibility to rectify things when they go wrong. We are aware of the high expectations from the youths who turned out in large numbers to vote for change. From the time we formed Government, as the National Youth Chairperson, we have been going round the country to assure the youths that the promises that President Hichilema made would come to pass,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<p>Liswaniso has since warned of stern action against those who were in the habit of issuing unwarranted attacks against the party, Government and civil servants. He says those who will be attacking President Hichilema as an individual would be dealt with in their individual capacity.<\/p>\n<p>He also warned members of opposition political parties to desist from fanning confusion and violence in the 3rd February Kabwata Parliamentary by-elections to stay away.<\/p>\n<p><b>UPND MEDIA TEAM<\/b><\/p>\n<p><strong>For More News And Analysis About <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/zambia\">Zambia<\/a> Follow <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/\">Africa-Press<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Africa-Press &#8211; Zambia.
