The Alliance for Better Zambia (ABZ), the new political party founded by Father Frank Bwalya, a clergyman who recently defected from the ruling Patriotic Front (PF), has issued a statement condemning an attack on a group of protesters by a government-sponsored militia.
The attack on innocent campaigners of “Black Friday” by PF criminals at BIGOGA church yesterday is an unprecedented abomination which represents the beginning of the end of the PF regime. The abomination speaks volumes about the desperation of the PF and comes as a warning that this criminal party is prepared to do anything to suppress dissenting views on issues of public interest.
As Alliance for Better Zambia we condemn the barbaric action of PF cadres and challenge the Zambia Police to arrest them. Failure by the Police to arrest those criminals will lead to lose of the little confidence the public has in the Police to deal with political violence. This will be a recipe for anarchy in our country. If this violence continues, Zambians will be justified to form militias to defend themselves against state sponsored criminals.
We want to state categorically that the reason why those PF criminals acted with impunity is because they have the backing of the top leadership in the PF-led government. As such, Zambians should hold the PF top leadership accountable for the violence that we have been witnessing since PF came to power. For this reason Zambians should not expect any condemnation from top PF leadership let alone President Michael C Sata.
Finally, we want to state that the PF government has no respect for God’s house such as the BIGOCA church which their criminal cadres invaded and committed sacrilege never seen before in this country. This abomination has invited a curse on PF. As such, we declare that the end of PF will be very bad.
