Africa-Press<\/a> – Zambia<\/a>. <\/strong><\/span>CORNELIUS Mweetwa says no one in the UPND top echelon will be President Hakainde Hichilema\u2019s bootlicker. Mweetwa, the UPND spokesperson and recently elected Choma Central member of parliament, featured on ZNBC TV\u2019s Sunday Interview.<\/p>\n

\u201cFor those who have the opportunity to be around him (President Hichilema), I\u2019m here to say we are not going to be bootlickers for HH. None of us is a bootlicker for HH; we are co-leaders with HH,\u201d Mweetwa said. \u201cWe are there to support him [because] he is our leader. [We\u2019ll] hold him accountable to help to lead this country to a better country that we want.\u201d<\/p>\n

He said unlike the PF pride of bragging that \u2018we shall be in power until 2050,\u2019 the UPND mandate in government would expire in 2026, with a possibility of renewal \u2013 based on performance.<\/p>\n

The PF, with a haughty leadership and mostly stuck-up followers, suffered a humiliating defeat at presidential level, in the August 12 polls. Mweetwa said as a way of maintaining people\u2019s support, the UPND government has low-hanging fruits by way of curtailing political violence and that such has already begun to happen.<\/p>\n

\u201cEveryone is free in Zambia now \u2013 free at last. [We\u2019ll] end political cadreism \u2013 cadres storming ZNBC, ministries, cadres poking police officers,\u201d he promised. \u201c[We are also] ending political impunity \u2013 people speaking as though they were not elected. \u2018We shall be here until 2050.\u2019 [But] I\u2019m here to say [that] UPND is here up to 2026, and dependent on how we behave, how we deliver [and] how we use this mandate, the people of Zambia have the right to remove us in 2026. So, what we shall do depends on the will of the people to decide to give us another mandate.\u201d<\/p>\n

Mweetwa added that the presidency of Hichilema is a departure point, from the rooted confusion that headlined Zambia under PF regime. \u201cYou can see the freedom which is reigning in the country. You can put on PF, UPND regalia and go anywhere. A radio station now can be able to interview anyone. No one is coming to shutdown\u2026No DC (district commissioner) is going to come and say \u2018what are you doing?\u2019\u201d Mweetwa explained. He noted that those who were coming to serve with President Hichilema must be leaders and not bootlickers.<\/p>\n

\u201cAnd leaders will know that our leader has to be helped by making the right choices and decisions, in order that his legacy should be enduring on the promises he made to the people of this country \u2013 the basis upon which the people gave him a landmark vote,\u201d Mweetwa said. \u201cI\u2019m here to commit, as spokesperson of the UPND, [that] the media will have their space. We do recognise that the media is the fourth estate in any functioning democracy.\u201d<\/p>\n

He further said \u201cthe moment you begin to trample on media freedoms, then you get it wrong, like it has happened in the past five years.\u201d \u201cYou close down the views of the people, you shut-down the voices of the people [and] you can\u2019t hear what the people are saying. You only hear it through the ballot and by that time you are out. We don\u2019t want to go that route,\u201d Mweetwa said.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe President-elect has a vision for the media. He is a businessman. He has a mission for the media. He wants to transform the way the media operates in this country\u2026\u201d Mweetwa indicated that the UPND remained relevant in the opposition for 23 years because of honest and sincerity.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt\u2019s because of standing for truth and not appeasement. I don\u2019t think that HH will change. If he does change, the people of Zambia will also change \u2013 they will stop supporting him and remove him from office,\u201d he explained, adding that the international community is overjoyed with the election of Hichilema as the Republican President. \u201c[It\u2019s] joy at last. The international community is even taking Zambia as a case study to say \u2018there is a government that was heavy-handed, oppressing citizens, abusing police to stifle freedoms of people.\u2019 If you did an opinion poll in the international community, people thought that government would not change in Zambia because it was a brutal government. They are wondering \u2018how have you managed as Zambia?\u2019 Zambia has managed it because we don\u2019t have a tradition of having a leadership coming through the bullet [but] we always have a leadership coming through the ballot.\u201d<\/p>\n

He pointed out that as Hichilema gets sworn-in today, he should carry on from where he has already begun as the President-elect. \u201cNumber one expectation of the people of Zambia is the economy \u2013 the issue of debt, the issue of the kwacha-dollar relationship,\u201d Mweetwa said. \u201cFor the first time in Zambia\u2019s history, Brentwood institutions \u2013 the IMF, the World Bank, are sending representatives to come and be part of the inauguration of Zambia\u2019s Seventh President, HH. That is happening for the first time!\u201d<\/p>\n

He emphasised that the business and market industry has confidence in Hichilema. \u201cI don\u2019t want to be overarching about it \u2013 the leadership will have to be sober and humble about it. We have to harness this goodwill and use it to the benefit of the people of this country,\u201d he noted.<\/p>\n

Around Zambia\u2019s debt, Mweetwa said: \u201cwe are coming in to do a forensic audit, to create integrity of numbers \u2013 to find out whether what we have been told over the years that Zambia owes is really what we owe.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
