WHO IS ATTACKING WHO, NEVERS MUMBA VERSUS HH? An extract from MMDs press briefing by Secretary General Muhabi Lungu about HHs attacks The UPND apparently believe they have already arrived at Plot One because they see themselves as next in line after the MMD and PF. Unfortunately for them, statistical data of election results since 2001 clearly shows them on a path of decline. They got 27% in 2001, 25% in 2006, 20% in 2008 and 18% in 2011. Their path to State House entails an upward swing of not less than 20 percentage points after a decline of 9 points which would be unprecedented in Zambias history. This unbelievable upward swing is put into context when you consider that the UPND failed to even get 5% of the vote in four out of nine provinces in 2011. Namely Copperbelt, Eastern, Luapula and Northern. Even in Lusaka where they believe they are very popular, the UPND could only manage 11%. On the other hand, the path to victory for the MMD is much more assured as we were within 6 percentage points of the PF in 2011. I shall be releasing a comprehensive article within the next few weeks in which all the facts are presented, including the little known fact that MMD has increased in Lusaka by 15% since 2001, whereas the UPND has dropped by 20%.
