THE UPND IS DEAD SCARED, IT’S ALL PROPAGANDA TO SLOW OPPOSITION UNITY, SAYS MMEMBE’S PARTY
Socialist Party has reacted to the circulating audo and assertions that it’s leader Fred M’membe wants to hjack Tonse Alliance.
In a statement the party has rubbished the claims describing it as propaganda aimed at slowing the pace of unity in the opposition.
OFFICIAL STATEMENT ON CIRCULATING AUDIO TARGETING DR. FRED M’MEMBE AND THE SOCIALIST PARTY
The Socialist Party wishes to categorically dismiss the circulating audio on social media alleging that Dr. Fred M’membe is plotting to hijack the TONSE Alliance. This is nothing more than a cheap, desperate propaganda stunt aimed at weakening the growing unity among opposition forces in Zambia.
Let it be known that the Party has completely distanced itself from the said audio and has launched internal processes to investigate its authenticity and origin. We take such attempts to sow division very seriously and will not allow malicious actors to derail the critical momentum being built across the country.
It is increasingly evident that ever since Dr. Fred M’membe and the Socialist Party openly declared their willingness to work with fellow opposition parties, church leaders, and civil society organisations, the ruling UPND has grown visibly uncomfortable. In response, they have resorted to manufacturing narratives and pushing baseless conspiracy theories—none of which will succeed.
Zambians are not blind. They can see through these ploys. The truth is simple: the Socialist Party remains fully committed to unity, solidarity, and cooperation with all progressive forces. We are focused on removing a regime that has repeatedly failed to deliver on its promises and continues to act in the interest of the few at the expense of the many.
The wind of change is blowing, and no amount of propaganda will stop the Zambian people from reclaiming their dignity, democracy, and future.
