Withdraw President Harry Kalaba From UKA, We Focus On Strengthening CF In Readiness For 2026

The Citizens First Party National Youth Wing demands the withdrawal of President Harry Kalaba from the UNITED KWACHA ALLIANCE (UKA) in the interest of spearheading the national agenda anchored on unity of purpose.
Recent by-elections have given us reasons enough to champion calls for withdrawing our *President Harry Kalaba and CF* from *UKA* to focus on strengthening our party structures on the ground and pay close attention to what Zambians really want.

We have listened to views coming from the majority of citizens (grassroots), mainly the *YOUTH* and *WOMEN* that vote in large numbers, on the need for unity of purpose in opposition, and we are convinced that in the interest of pushing the national agenda, the *Citizens First Party and President Harry Kalaba* must not be seen to belong to one specific alliance nor divide votes or, worse off, be at the center of disunity; hence the need to take a neutral stance until *one big and solid alliance* that will embrace all opposition political parties is formed as demanded by the majority of citizens. That’s when CF should entertain talks of joining that alliance.

For now, we believe that our president, Harry Kalaba, is duty-bound to channel all his time, resources, and energy in organizing, mobilizing, building, and strengthening our party, CF, across all ten (10) provinces and one hundred and sixteen (116) districts in readiness for the 2026 general elections.
During this period, we expect to remain neutral as CF, devoid of any political alliance affiliation, but listen more to what the majority of citizens want ahead of the 2026 general elections.
