Levy Gets a thumping from Sata

Ruling MMD presidential candidate Levy Mwanawasa, who based his campaign on his economic success appears headed for a massive loss in the September 28 elections.

Mwanawasa has lost in Lusaka where most of the seven parliamentary seats have been won by Michael Sata's Patriotic Fron party.

Mwanawasa has also lost in Kitwe, Mufulira, Luanshya and Chililabombwe while results for Chingola and Ndola are being awaited.

The defeats on the Copperbelt have been with margins that are landslide and will be difficult to recover from.

So far Sata and the Patriotic Front has won in two other provinces - Northern and Luapula - while the party also has a fair share of votes in Eastern and Livingstone.

It is now a matter of time as to when Mwanawasa will concede defeat.
