The UPND candidate Beatrice Kayuni was the first to file in her nomination at 12:24.
And Ms. Kayuni says as an indigenous Kafue resident,  she will deliver to the expectations of the people in the District.
Meanwhile, UPND District Chairperson Clifford Mwaba says the party will engage in a peaceful campaign and will not ferry cadres to avoid causing confusion.

And PF candidate Brigadier General Moono Simakoloyi filed in his nomination papers at 14:50hrs.
Brigadier General Simakoloyi said his campaign will be based on love and fair play.
