Only PF can bring real development - Kaseba

PF leader Michael Sata's wife Dr Christine Kaseba says the country will only experience real development when the PF forms government. In an interview after attending a conference of the Baptist Church in Mpongwe district, Dr Kaseba said it was unacceptable that many poor people were going through untold misery despite the country being blessed with abundant resources.

She said many Zambians had come to appreciate the need for change of government because they were not seeing the development that MMD was talking about.

"The last time I was in Mpongwe was in 2008 and at that time it was predominantly MMD. Today, it is amazing to see how people have changed their mindsets and they have changed because they have realised that they deserve better living conditions. With serious leadership, places like Mpongwe, Masaiti and other areas are supposed to be breadbaskets of this country but that's not the situation." Dr Kaseba said.

"People are really suffering and despite working hard through farming, there is no tangible programme from government to improve their living conditions."

Dr Kaseba said Zambia was in need of a government that would utilise the country's minerals and abundant land to end widespread poverty.

She said it was the duty of every responsible Zambian to join calls for change that would see the PF and Sata form government.

"Today, some people have the audacity to stand and tell lies that Sata will bring homosexuality to Zambia and he is a homosexual himself. I came here so that people can see that Sata is married to a woman and no such thing will happen when he forms government because we are Christians. People should not listen to leaders who have run out of ideas and have nothing to offer the nation," she said.

Dr Kaseba said the country would only become a prosperous nation if government power was given to leaders that would fight corruption and push the agenda of promoting democracy and good governance.
