UPND Questions The Continued Closure Of Radio Lyambai
The United Party for National Development (UPND) on the Copperbelt has questioned the motive behind the continued closure of Radio Lyambai in Mongu especially that the country is headed for the tripartite elections.Provincial spokesperson Kennedy Kalunga says the party finds the closure of Radio Lyambai in Mongu to be totally unacceptable considering the fact that Zambia is a democracy.
Mr. Kalunga says the continuous closure of the radio station is detrimental not only to the people of western province but the entire nation.
He says Radio Lyambai was not only the platform for political views but also helped communities in Western Province to learn about various life issues such as HIV and AIDS.
Mr. Kalunga says in a statement that the people of Western Province cannot be denied an opportunity to listen to divergent views emanating from the 2011 campaigns.
He has since appealed to government to immediately re-open Radio Lyambai in Mongu that was closed following the Barotseland disturbances.
And the Copperbelt spokesperson has called upon Zambian people to vote for the UPND saying it will allow media institutions operate freely away from government interference by making sure that the Independent Broadcasting Authority (IBA) comes into being.
