UPND scared of Bowman, says Nakacinda

By NATION REPORTER

THE arrest of Bowman Lusambo is politically motivated because he is a big threat to UPND government hence they want to fix him, Patriotic Front (PF) Chairperson for Publicity Raphael Nakacinda has said.

Mr Nakacinda said that it was evident that all the charges they had brought against Mr Lusambo were politically motivated and did not hold water.

He said that the recent grand showoff by Mr Lusambo and his skills of mobilization in Ndola during the women’s day celebrations could have unsettled some member of the UPND who called for his arrest.

“Bowman is a political giant and the UPND no it that is why they want to deal with him at all costs because if you analyse his cases you will find that they are all politically motivated,” Mr Nakacinda said.

Meanwhile Mr Nakacinda said the new dawn needed to stop this political witch-hunt which was currently going on.

He said all those that were perceived as enemies were being pursued on flimsy grounds in a bid to make their lives a living hell. Mr Nakacinda said the party was heading in the wrong trajectory as they were many political arrests that were currently going on.

He challenged the ACC to ensure that the fight against corruption was not political but genuine.
