GBM’s endorsement a boost – Lifwekelo

The United Party for National Development (UPND) says Kasama Central Member of Parliament Geoffrey Mwamba is still a political giant whose endorsement of its leader Hakainde Hichilema will boost his chances of emerging victorious in the 20thJanuary, 2015 presidential election.

UPND deputy Spokesperson Edwin Lifwekelo says Mr. Mwamba’s endorsement of the UPND leader is a clear indication that the UPND has penetrated Northern Province and Kasama central in particular.

Mr. Lifwekelo says this is also a clear sign that the UPND embraces everyone regardless of one’s tribe or religion.

He adds that the move by the Kasama Central lawmaker to endorse the UPND leader is a bitter blow to the ruling party.

Mr. Lifwekelo says the UPND has done its home work and is fully prepared for victory in the presidential election next month.
