 Thank you very much I would like to take this opportunity to clarify the way results are going in many parts of the country but particularly for Monser Central and Choma Central constituency because I'm being bombarded with a lot of calls from colleagues from the media and just generally citizens who are interested to see what this means to say Muimumuetua lost at provincial level. We want to state that our election primary electioneering system is made in such a way that there are five stages of elections. You have the words where all the words you know vote and then you have the constituency you have the district then you have the province and finally the national management will sit and make a final decision as to who becomes a candidate. Now in respect of myself in Choma Central and of course honorable Muimumuetua has been a source of concern and to some extent confusion I want to state that I have garnered this far 440 votes and my closest rival who is Mr. Mulea Jumba is around 158 votes followed by Trevor Mwinde with 143 votes. Now this gentleman with 143 votes against my 440 votes is the one who yesterday you know beat me at the provincial conference by two votes. Now what does this mean? Myself and honorable Jackie Muimumu of course we did not attend that assembly for us to be able to canvas votes because myself like honorable Muimumu on the ground where all the words participated to vote we won landslide by about 80% or more of the votes at the word level at the constituency and at the district and when it came to the province we are consumed by national duty and I thought that the way that result came out was in such a way that we did not go out there yesterday to canvas for votes but we accept the result that you know came out and in a party that promulges democracy the one who does a better campaign should be able to get you know the vote and from here we are now proceeding to the national management but the point to note is this even if one one at word level resoundingly at constituency resoundingly at district resoundingly at province resoundingly it does not make you an automatic candidate in any way doesn't the national management reserves the final authority to decide who will be the candidates as counsellors as council chair persons as mayors as members of parliament and that the the national management of the upnd will soon you know be able to decide when they convene to look at all the candidates and be able to look at the results from the word constituency district and you know of course province do a trends analysis and also bring in other factors that the lower organs of the party may not have taken into account or consideration in voting the way they voted so this rests the matter we are we are on course we await the final decision of the NMC there is no candidate at any level this far except in those words in those districts in those constituencies where you have candidates who went and opposed those automatically they are the candidates for the upnd in the forthcoming general elections of august 2021 thank you
