UPND and naked women

Dear Editor,

This is not the first time UPND has exposed the nakedness of other peoples’ wives without shame.

It is certainly one of the most primitive ways of protesting which was used during the struggle against colonialists. Remember Mama Julia Chikamoneka MHRIEP)?

So surely UPND wants to take us back to those days just for what reason?

You see the clever leaders of UPND will not allow their wives or daughters to undress.

As usual it is the poor and down trodden who are used to fight the battles for the rich.

UPND should be told in no uncertain terms that what it is doing is not only primitive but an insult to the women of this nation.

Do they think that Zambians would care more if they saw naked women making foolish and cheapening their bodies?

A woman body commands a lot of respect and it is not normal for a normal woman would want to parade herself even half naked
before total strangers unless they are women or girls of the night.

Which normal woman, and married for that matter, would feel comfortable to undress for the
public just to please UPND
leaders?

It is my prayer that this should be the last time UPND resorted to such poor methods of protesting.

May I suggest that in future when such a thing occurs, the police should go for the leaders of the party and charge them
accordingly?

Even political violence, it is the youths of the poor who are in the frontline of battles while children of leaders are in their homes enjoying their hearty meals.

Enough is enough, please UPND stop it, for the dignity of our
women.
