Presidential candidate Ackim Antony Njobvu has urged Zambians to vote for his party the Democratic Union in this year’s general elections, saying the country needs a fresh start.
Speaking during Sunday Chat on Christian Nation, Njobvu said denying the DU a vote would amount to denying the country needed innovation and direction.
Njobvu recently warned that there is likely to be “gnashing of teeth” after the August elections if a PF-aligned candidate wins and that “fixing” of PF members would continue at the expense of national development should UPND emerge victorious.
On Sunday, Njobvu emphasized that Zambia requires a new government to reconcile political hatred between rival parties.
“Zambians would be denying themselves an opportunity for a restart should they not vote for the DU in this year’s general elections,” he said. “The country needs a fresh start. We must do away with both UPND and PF and elect a new government.”
Meanwhile, Njobvu said 24 months is enough time for a focused president to show direction.
“Once elected President on August 13, Zambians should expect to see results in the shortest period. The DU comes with fresh ideologies that will transform the nation,” he added.
