Movement for Multiparty Democracy National Executive Committee (NEC) Members are other party officials are by press time under attack from Patriotic Front cadres in Shiwangandu in Muchinga Province.
MMD NEC members Faustina Sinyangwe and Ambassador Joyce Musenge are currently holed up in a house for a district official as PF cadres sorround the house throwing stones.
MMD National Secretary Muhabi Lungu has confirmed the development to Zambia Reports and he is currently making frantic efforts to get in touch with the Police Command before things escalate.
“What is wrong with this government? You mean now in Zambia there are no go areas? We allowed them to market their party freely and that is how they got into government. Surely we can not meet our party officials,” Lungu lamented.
According to a Police source, the MMD had met all the legal requirements to hold meeting in Shiwangandu. “What we know is that the MMD officials from Lusaka are meeting district officials. They are meeting indoors and there is nothing wrong with that but we can not act until we get orders from Lusaka. It is very frustrating to be a Police Officer under the PF government,” the source said.
