Women’s Lobby Group condemns political violence in Mongu

The Women’s Lobby Group (WLG) in Mongu district in Western Province has condemned political violence that recently occurred between the ruling Patriotic Front (PF) and opposition United Party for National Development (UPND) in Mongu.

Speaking on behalf of other Women, WLG member Correte Lubinda told ZANIS that political violence should not be entertained at all levels regardless of who was involved because violence has the potential of causing chaos in the nation.

Ms. Lubinda noted that the development of any nation was anchored on the internal peace and unity adding that violence experienced in Mongu and Shiwan, gandu districts would threaten and compromise the unity and security of the country.

Ms. Lubinda has since advised all political parties participating in the fourth-coming Presidential elections slated for January 20^th  2015 to desist from engaging themselves into any acts of violence.
