Patriotic Front Copperbelt Provincial chairman Nathan Chanda says criminals gassing houses want people to rise against the PF government. Chanda said there is no way criminals can just gas houses without stealing anything. Chanda said this when he held community sensitisation meetings in Roan, Mikonfwa and Mpatamato in Luanshya.
He, however, said the PF under President Edgar Lungu is on top of things. "We are not sleeping and will ensure that there is order in the district. There is no way a criminal can come in your houses to just gas you and run away. That is not possible," Chanda said. "They just want to make the people rise up against the PF government and President Edgar Lungu. They shall be exposed, and their days are numbered. These are just criminals."
He said social media "lies" have also caused fear in the people. "We are here to engage each other in matters affecting us as a community. You need to know what your government, the local authority is doing about these social media lies," said Chanda. And Community Transformation Network Executive Director Stephen Chewe said it is evil for some people to sit idle and watch evil acts unfold in the country.
He said it is clear that the gassing of houses is meant to create fear in the people. "This is clear that there are some people with an evil agenda of making the country ungovernable. But we thank the government for coming on board. These meetings have opened our eyes and we now know what is the truth and what is not," said Chewe. Later, Chanda, in the company of District Commissioner Patrick Maipampe, visited the houses that were gassed in Mpatamato.
