Incumbent Member of Parliament for Chiradzulu East Constituency Henry Mussa on Thursday morning beat his arch-rivary Joseph Nomalle in Primary Elections for the ruling Democratic Progressive Party (DPP) in the constituency.
Mussa who is also Minister of Information and Communications Technology amassed got 3,650 votes against Nomale’s 1,600 votes.
Presiding Officer for the elections, Symon Vuwa Kaunda confirmed of the development in an interview with the press.
“Hon Henry Mussa has won the polls here in Chiradzulu East and it is very unfair to be spreading rumors that he has lost,” he said.
Kaunda was referring to earlier social media reports that indicated that Mussa had lost to his main rival but this was later proved to be wrong.
