Today Honourable Mutati is back in Lunte and was received with a thunderous welcome. Speaking to the constituents, Honourable Mutati has asked the people of Lunte to ignore people who have ganged up to attack one man Hakainde Hichilema in lines of tribalism.
Honourable Mutati said, cultural difference exist, of course they exist on the African continent and Zambia is not exceptional. He further said Zambians must put behind the tribalism and divisions which has birthed in the political circle by desperate politicians, we need our nation Zambia to heal and putting core conservative principles and values in to action should be number one.
The MDC strongman said if we allow ourselves into the gridlock of tribalism we’re in trouble. Zambians have already decided, have gone around the country and everyone wants change, hence no amount of cheap politics will change the minds of Zambians, said Honourable Mutati
Lastly on August 12,2021 which is a few weeks from now let’s vote for UPND Alliance candidates with President HH, we are all feed up of the PF, hence my party and other opposition political parties joined hands with the UPND to form a vehicle called UPND Alliance to allow regime change, said Honourable Mutati.
The MDC leader has been accompanied by MDC National Chairlady Mary Ngoma, Emmanuel Malite NDC Media Director and other UPND Alliance officials.
