UPND vows to go ahead with constitution demos

The United Party for National Development has vowed to go ahead with countrywide constitution protests this week with or without Police permission.

Protests organizing team Spokesperson Chisankama Mudenda says the party yesterday applied for a Police permit with the view of being allowed to protest this Friday, 15th May.

Mr. Mudenda who is also UPND Lubwa Ward Youth Chairperson has told Qfm News that to this effect his party has engaged private security companies to handle security issues during the protests.

He says the party is determined to protest with or without a Police permit being granted because it finds government’s plan to table non contentious clauses of the final draft constitution when Parliament resumes sitting unacceptable.
