Africa-Press – Zambia. <\/strong><\/span>The Former ruling Patriotic Front(PF) Media Director Antonio Mourinho Mwanza has said that the statement by United Party for National Development (UPND) Sesheke Member of Parliament, Romeo Kan\u2019gombe that \u201898 per cent of the civil servants are PF and must be FIRED\u2019 makes a very sad reading.<\/p>\n

In a statement released to the media, Mr Mwanza said that Mr Kan\u2019gombe\u2019s narrative feeds into very dangerous rhetoric that UPND has been pushing against all those that worked or did business under the Patriotic Front administration.<\/p>\n

Mr Mwanza said that the UPND is on a mission to cleanse the whole country of anyone who does not belong to or support UPND, adding that, to them, anyone who is not UPND does not deserve to live, work or do business in this country and that, worse, if you are PF you don\u2019t even deserve to be alive, you should be ostracised and banished from Zambia.<\/p>\n

\u201cThis is a very dangerous scheme that must be stopped before this country is turned into a one-party UPND Nation,\u201d Mr Mwanza said.<\/p>\n
