UPND holds it general conference today.
22 years old now, the party has won 2 Presidential elections, while fending off a sustained assault from one of the worst political organisations we have had the misfortune of having.
You don't have to agree with them, but credit is due.

There isn't a political party, past and present, that has been in the opposition with a visible presence for as long as the UPND has.
Not UNIP, not PF, certainly not FDD.
PF did it for some 10 years, not sure the party would have outlived Michael Sata had it not assumed power.

Two things;
A significantly resourced organisation with an equally indefatigable leader; money and resolve.
African politics, particularly in the opposition, are insanely expensive undertakings. They are also an hazardous occupation.

PF has turned out a worse ruling party than the MMD ever was.
Had the latter subjected PF to the sort of criminal conduct it has treated the UPND with, we would not hear the end of their constant wailing.
It is a testament to that organisation's grit that it has come this far.
