United Party for National Development (UPND) president, Hakainde Hichilema June 15th morning staged a one man protest to commemorate black Friday at the Freedom Statue over alleged bad governance by ruling Patriotic Front (PF) government.
Mr. Hichilema says it is unacceptable for the PF to turn the country into a dictatorship.
He says he decided to protest alone at the Freedom Statue because the people who fought for the liberation of the Zambian people are not pleased with the conduct of the PF administration.
Mr. Hichilema adds that the PF does not want to listen to the many cries of the people on the removal of maize and fuel subsidies which has affected the majority Zambians.
He further states that many people are being brutalized by the PF cadres while President Michael Sata is quiet meaning he is enjoying the action.
The UPND leader notes that the Zambia Police has lost its professionalism in the way they are operating.
He notes that people no longer have the right to express their opinions because they are afraid of being attacked by the PF cadres.
Mr. Hichilema says a lot of people who voted for the PF are now disappointed at the way the PF has turned against them.
It is interesting to note that HH went alone. The question is why? Power is in numbers. It is easy to complain but even more difficult to advance a better position. Too many politicians are believe that managing a country is an easy thing – it is not. It needs wisdom, tact and a team of intelling and strategic thinkers to support one. The Presidency is not a one man job – its about a leader with a group of great people around him providing him or her with analytical and strategic information. Even a good traditional leader is in only deemed good if his group of advisors are exceptionally good. When Zambians aspiring for higher office understand this importance we shall then genuinely deserve our place as a modern State in the 21st century and stop bickering about who is moving into State House.
