David Lewis Rubongoya, the part Secretary General said in a recent interview in media that the party is considering to appoint shadow cabinet shortly after the ruling government has announced their cabinet.

“The Shadow Cabinet will be selected after this other side (Executive) announce their cabinet and we are consulting with our comrades because we are looking at these positions as mission oriented to aid the struggle,” Mr Rubongoya said.
