In an interview with The Herald yesterday, FFP president Mr Cosmas Mponda said the bickering in the inclusive Government and economic challenges facing the country had prompted them to form the party.
“We formed the party after realising that the inclusive Government has failed to solve the problems facing the country due to continued squabbling. We want to ensure that people have access to water, electricity and proper infrastructure,” he said.

Mr Mponda said his party would also avail resources to university and college graduates to start their own businesses.
“We will strive to provide our graduates with funds to start their own businesses. While we support the land reform programme, we believe
Government has not done much to support the new farmers so our focus will also be on supporting new farmers,” Mr Mponda said.
He added that the indigenisation programme should not target existing companies but should create new ones.
Mr Mponda said his party’s membership was funding the operations of the party and that the party was not receiving any external support.
