PF manoeuvres will be met with unprecedented force, wans C/belt UPND official

UPND Copperbelt youth chairman Kelly Jibinga says the PF should not take the opposition members silence as weakness. And Jibinga says the UPND will report PF Copperbelt youth chairman Nathan Chanda to the police for threatening violence against on Hakainde Hichilema. In a statement, Jibinga stated that the PF would be met with force if they continue to insult the UPND and its leadership.

“The UPND on the Copperbelt would want to advise that the sooner the PF stops overrating themselves, the better for Zambia and all of us. The UPND wants to send a strong warning to the PF and Nathan Chanda that never should they take our being civilised as a sign of weakness. And should you at one point try to prove your declaration that Copperbelt is a no go area for the UPND, trust me, you will be sorry. Your manoeuvres will be met with unprecedented force. Bring it on, if you dare,” Jibinga stated.

“The UPND has not taken Nathan Chanda’s threats lightly and has since written to the Zambia Police to arrest Nathan Chanda for his life threatening statement on our President Hakainde Hichilema. The UPND will hold Nathan Chanda responsible should anything happen to HH while he is on the Copperbelt as he reports himself to the police on a miscalculated PF engineered police call out.”

Jibinga stated that the UPND feared for Hichilemas life when he travels to the Copperbelt. He, however, vowed that it would be total force should the PF go ahead with its plans against Hichilema.

“Despite all the PF evil plans, our preoccupation as UPND is to rescue Zambia from PF looting of our limited national wealth and national resources. And we shall not allow PF sponsored thuggery to intimidate us. The UPND has God given responsibility to give hope to the suffering majority Zambians,” stated Jibinga.

PF supporters led by Chanda on Tuesday petitioned President Edgar Lungu on alleged xenophobic attacks on investors.

We have seen the opposition inciting members to attack investors, but as youths we say no. We don’t want them to dare us,” Chanda said. “If things continue, we are ready to effect citizens arrests on those inciting violence on the province. We know what Mr HH [UPND leader Hakainde Hichilema] has done to the people of Zambia. We will make Copperbelt a no go area for Mr HH and his party.”
