WE HAVE PROOF THAT YOU HATE HH, SWALLOW YOUR PRIDE AND CONGRATULATE HIM AND STOP FIGHTING HIM – Mwaliteta tells the Catholic church

Newly elected UPND Kafue West MP, Hon. Obvious Mwaliteta has extended the message of unity and support for president President Hakainde Hichilema to the Catholic Church inorder for him to implement the agenda of economic growth in the country.

At a press briefing, Mr. Mwaliteta candidly condemned what he termed as ‘Church politics’ being conducted behind pulpits, especially by churches in Lusaka province.

“I want to extend this message to the Catholic church, swallow your pride and congratulate president Hichilema. I’m sure you have seen that the president means well for this country, there is no need to fight him anymore.”

The law maker has urged the Catholic church to direct their energy to preaching the word of God rather than talking about the president. He further disclosed that the ruling party has proof that the church hates President Hichilema.

“If you have nothing to say or you hate him naturally, don’t talk about him just preach the word of God”, he said.

“We have proved and we can prove that you don’t like him so just go and preach the word of God to the poor who are thirsty for the word”, he added

President Hakainde Hichilema was yesterday sworn into office for the second time till 2031 and has since launched the ‘Grow Zambia’ agenda.
