Mr Mukuka who is also MMD National Executive Committee Member charged that the former ruling party has all what it takes to return the Senga hill parliamentary seat.

He however stated that it is unfortunate that some of its parliamentarians have neglected the party.

The Supreme Court nullified the election of MMD Senga Hill Member of Parliament Kapembwa Simbao on grounds that there were a number of electoral malpractices.

Mr Simbao was elected MP for Senga Hill in 2011 but PF losing candidate Giles Chomba Yambayamba petitioned the election of Mr Simbao.

Mr. Yambayamba contended that the election was characterized by widespread undue influence, bribery, intimidation, voter treating and electoral malpractices.
