Kabwe residents urged to vote for Edgar Lungu as Republican President

–Acting President, Guy Scott, has asked the people of Kabwe to vote for the Patriotic Front (PF) candidate, Edgar Lungu, in the January 20, 2015 presidential by-elections.

Dr Scott urged the electorates to vote for Mr Lungu so that he can continue with vast developmental agenda that was started by the late President, Michael Sata.

He said the PF is the only party that has a clear developmental agenda for the people of Zambia, hence the need for Zambians to maintain the continuity of development.

Dr Scott said this at the official launch of the Central Province PF presidential by-elections campaign rally in Kabwe today.

Meanwhile, PF presidential candidate, Edgar Lungu, pledged loyalty to Acting President, Guy Scott, during his discharge of duties as Defence and Justice Minister.

Mr Mwape said Edgar Lungu is the right candidate who will no doubt steer the country to economic prosperity as enshrined in the PF manifesto.

Present at the rally were cabinet ministers Nkandu Luo, Emmanuel Chenda, Chishimba Kambwili, Jean Kapata, Joseph Katema, Inonge Wina, various deputy ministers, PF members of parliament and senior party officials.
