Africa-Press – Zambia. <\/strong><\/span>BEMBA-LISING PF The Candidates\u2019s Comment Last night, we possed a thought provoking question \u201cwhy is it that only Bembas want to be President in PF?\u201d Interesting answers in the comment section.<\/p>\n

With the pulling out of Given Lubinda from the Presidential race, here are some presidential hopefuls in PF we know of:
\n1. Emmanuel Mwamba<\/p>\n

2. Christopher Kang\u2019ombe<\/p>\n

3. Brian Mundubile<\/p>\n

4. Chishimba Kambwili<\/p>\n

5.Miles Sampa<\/p>\n

6. Mutotwe Kafwaya<\/p>\n

7. Stephen Kampyongo<\/p>\n

What does this tell us about the PF and Bemba hegemony? Isn\u2019t there other people from different tribal regions in PF who can also be party President?<\/p>\n

We have heard people within PF saying an Easterner can not be President now after Edgar Lungu. They say it is time for a Bemba to to be President of the party. Why isn\u2019t there discussion about other tribes,if tribe is really a determinant factor in who takes over from Edgar? For quiet some time, PF sustained a narrative that in UPND, only a Tonga is allowed to be President. They called UPND a Bantustan party and said it was tribal. Well, PF seems to be a Bembalised party and tribal too. We leave it to the public judge for themselves.<\/p>\n
