Zulu a Unifier of the People — Nyambe

By Chali Mulenga

Patriotic Front (PF) Southern Province Chairperson Golden Sifunga Nyambe has described newly elected party president Makebi Zulu as a unifier capable of bringing together members across the country following his election at the just-ended elective general convention.

Mr Nyambe said Mr Zulu’s victory was a clear indication of the confidence and trust that party structures at all levels have placed in his leadership, noting that the outcome reflected broad-based support from across the PF’s extensive grassroots network.

“For him to be elected by the structures, it shows that he is a unifying factor and has the support of the party across the country,” Mr Nyambe said in an interview.

He said the party’s presence in over 100 districts and more than 150 constituencies makes such an endorsement significant, adding that it demonstrates Mr Zulu’s acceptability among members from different regions.

Mr Nyambe stated that, on behalf of the PF structures in Southern Province and in his personal capacity, he wished to congratulate Mr Zulu on scooping the presidency at the convention held on Saturday, March 21, 2026.

“On behalf of the party structures in Southern Province and on my own behalf, I wish to congratulate President Makebi Zulu on scooping the presidency at the just-ended elective general convention,” he said.

He expressed optimism that the newly elected party leader would be guided by God’s wisdom and grace as he assumes office, especially at a time when the party is working to rebuild and reposition itself.

Mr Nyambe said the Southern Province leadership expects Mr Zulu to prioritise unity, strengthen internal cohesion and provide direction that will restore confidence among party members and supporters.

He added that the province is ready to support the new leadership in advancing the party’s agenda and ensuring that structures remain active and coordinated.

Mr Nyambe also emphasised the importance of collective leadership and inclusiveness, saying the party’s strength lies in its ability to bring together members from diverse backgrounds under a common vision.

“The expectation from the members is that the new president will unite the party and ensure that all structures are working together towards a common goal,” he said.

The PF held its elective general convention over the weekend as part of efforts to reorganise its leadership and chart a new course ahead of future political contests.
