OUR DEMOCRACY IS AT CROSS ROADS 

By Edwin Lifwekelo

The just ended ruling on the eligibility of Former President Edgar Lungu has validated our scepticism on the UPND appointed judges of the Constitution Court.

The Court failed to redeem itself from it's earlier position in the process eroding Confidence and Credibility in the Judiciary.

The UPND government must free the judiciary from harassment and intimidations,they have instilled fear in the Men and Women who are afraid of losing their Jobs.

iam afraid the current crop of Constitution Court Judges do not instill and inspire Confidence in the people.

if the ruling on Edgar Chagwa Lungu is something to go by it simply means the road ahead of the 2026 Presidential and Parliamentary elections will highly be contentious and turbulent.

Our democracy is at Cross roads and we need to immediately start looking at ways of addressing these challenges before the 2026 General Elections.

The Constitutional Court ruling failed the test of impartiality.

We appeal to our citizens and our party Membership to remain focused and Vigilant and not to loose sight of the bigger picture that of removing this tyrant regime from power come 2026.

Our Democracy is being mutilated and overrun by the UPND government which does not mean well for the people of zambia.

it's hell bent on pillaging our democracy through hook and crook.

The UPND government has failed to observe the tenant's of Democracy

Congratulations for winning the Constitutional judgement but I can tell you come the General Elections WINA AZALIlA

l think anyone Celebrating the Constitutional ruling is deceiving themselves, they should wait for the verdict of the people in 2026

.Our advice to the UPND government is Stop deceiving yourselves,learn from mistakes of others.

You promised the people of zambia Free independent judiciary,respect of the rule of law and Free Fair elections,none of these has happened under the watch of President Hakainde Hichilema.

The ruling by the constitutional court is not a loss for the PF,it's a loss for democracy in Zambia.

This matter now even gets worse with the concerns that has now been rendered by the law association of zambia on the u turn by the constitution court regarding President Lungu s eligibility matter,could it be that the men in robes rendered a political judgement rather than a sound legal judgement?

it looks like this matter is far from over and pray for it's logical conclusion.

President Hakainde Hichilema must stop Chosing his political opponents who should face him in 2026,let him face Former President Edgar Chagwa Lungu squarely instead of hiding in legal faucets.

Let him not hide in immingalato,that is being a coward.

The five Men in robes cannot choose a President for Zambia,let Zambians choose a President for themselves.

This is an opportunity for Zambians to step ahead in reclaiming this country from the UPND Mala administration.

These Egyptians you see today you Shall see them no more beyond 2026.
