Emmanuel Mwamba Warns PF Can Die

The former Zambian Ambassador to Ethiopia, Emmanuel Mwamba, has warned that the PF can die if it does not abandon the old habits that made it lose the 2021 General Election.

Mr. Mwamba said the PF should move away from slogans of rebranding and focus on practical steps to revive the party.

He said the PF is in dire need of new leadership, new energies, and new thinking to regain the lost confidence among many Zambians.

Speaking on Radio Phoenix’s Let the People Talk Programme on Tuesday, Mr. Mwamba admitted that the rebranding of the PF won’t be easy.

“The opposition should not die, the PF should not die. So we have an emphatic approach to the Patriotic Front, I think that we need a lot of energy to rebuild a party that has just lost an election, we know what happened to UNIP, and we know what happened to MMD. Recognizing those challenges and recognizing just the apathy that greets a party that has lost because the people would tell you the PF is dead, PF has no future, PF did so many things against us why are you even trying to speak to us about it. So here is a broken relationship a party has with Zambians so when you recognize that there is a broken relationship you embark on a path to then build that relationship and it is not easy to win back the trust of Zambians,” said Mr Mwamba.
