Mapatizya Formula: UPND Cadres Feast On FDD Candidate In Namwala

Violent UPND cadres yesterday attacked a fellow opposition candidate in Namwala. Led by former Namwala MP Moono Lubezhi, UPND cadres attempted to set ablaze the vehicle of Charity Kabongomana, an FDD candidate for the Namwala seat.

FDD spokesperson Antonio Mwanza, who is contesting the Munali seat, said the incident was saddening.

“This is really sad,” Mwanza said. “Yesterday in Namwala, UPND cadres led by their Namwala aspiring candidate and immediate past Namwala MP, Madam Moono Lubezhi brutally attacked our aspiring Namwala candidate, Madam Charity Kabongomana and her team breaking her arm and leg. She is agonizingly laying in pain at Namwala hospital. They further extensively damaged her vehicle and attempted to set it ablaze.”

UPND cadres have recently engaged running battles with ruling party supporters which have had to be quelled by police. Zambia goes to the polls on August 11.
