STATEMENT BY THE CHINGOLA YOUTH ASSOCIATION ON THE SMOOTH FILING OF NOMINATIONS IN CHINGOLA DISTRICT
The Chingola Youth Association commends the Electoral Commission of Zambia (ECZ) for the peaceful, orderly, and smooth filing of nominations witnessed in Chingola District.
We particularly appreciate the professionalism, coordination, and commitment demonstrated throughout the process, which reflects the importance of protecting democratic values and maintaining public confidence in electoral systems.
Special recognition goes to the Town Clerk, Madam Namukolo Kalufunya, who served as the District Electoral Officer, for the effective leadership, organization, and calm management of the nomination process. The orderly conduct observed today is a strong indication that institutions can successfully deliver credible democratic processes when professionalism and preparedness are prioritized.
As young people, we are encouraged by the level of maturity shown by stakeholders, political players, and citizens during this important democratic exercise. We urge all aspiring candidates, political parties, and supporters to continue promoting peace, tolerance, issue-based campaigns, and respect for democratic principles as the electoral process progresses.
The Chingola Youth Association remains committed to encouraging active youth participation, civic responsibility, peaceful engagement, and democratic accountability throughout the campaign period.
Together, let us protect peace, strengthen democracy, and promote development-centered politics for the future of Chingola and Zambia at large.
