UPND Yet To Nominate Lusaka Mayor Candidate

The opposition UPND says it has not yet adopted anybody to stand on the party ticket for the position of Lusaka Mayor.

Deputy Press Secretary to UPND President Hakainde Hichilema Briam Mwiinga said the UPND has not adopted anyone for the position of Lusaka Mayor as the city is still in a mourning environment.

Mr. Mwiinga said the party is also awaiting the Electoral Commission of Zambia to set the date for the by-election. 

“The party President, Mr. Hakainde Hichilema is however aware of how much Zambians have bestowed trust and confidence in him on delivering development in the country when in State House. And when in government, he will endeavour to do that, just like he is doing now as a private citizen by creating jobs through business opportunities for the unemployed youth,” Mr. Mwiinga said.
