VOANews.com - Zambia: Mazoka Declares Victory in Presidential Election (460 words) |
 | Anderson Mazoka claims vote rigging by the ruling party is behind the delay in releasing election results. |
| Mazoka says the MMD knows he has won, but that the party is trying to reduce his margin of victory. |
| Mazoka also dismissed allegations that the fragmented opposition might have allowed the ruling party to walk away with a victory, despite a massive anti-MMD sentiment in much of the country. |

| Mazoka was one of the founders of Chiluba's party, the Movement for Multi Party Democracy (MMD), because Kaunda's ruling United National Independence Party (UNIP) was drawing the country deeper and deeper into an economic quagmire. |
| Mazoka got tired of the government's rejection of sound advice with regard to the privatization of the copper mines, and the mines were eventually sold for a pittance. |
| Part of Zambia's population believes that Mazoka is the a-political messiah he claims to be: during interim elections, the UPND has snatched various parliamentary sets from the MMD. |
