In a political statement, read by the spokesman for the National Union for the Total Independence of Angola (UNITA), Marcial Dachala, at a press conference in Luanda, the party argued that the situation that currently marks the country's political life "constitutes a remarkable retreat in the construction of a united homeland and for all ".
"Today, thirty years after the Bicesse Accords, Angolans note that the party-state continues to manifest the same divisive, anti-patriotic, corporate, corrupt and corrupting nature", he said.
According to UNITA, "the practice of monopolizing and using public spaces and goods for the benefit of the party-state and its corrupt agents, as well as to demonize and hinder the action of its main political opponents remains on the agenda, subverting the legal order -constitutional institute ", the document emphasizes.
"Thus, in the middle of the pre-electoral year, the State's media, paid with money from all of us, were instructed and elected the president of UNITA, Adalberto Costa Júnior, as the target to be slaughtered," said the party.
According to UNITA, "fortunately", Angolans are beginning to realize that "the oligarchic regime that captured the State to rob Angola and impoverish Angolans, after signs of regeneration in 2017, is now in decline, disoriented and afraid of the alternation. ".
"Angolans are convinced that the current regime has come to an end and no longer has solutions to the country's serious problems, nor does it already have a solution for garbage collection in Luanda," he stressed in the document.
For the second national political force, promoting defamation and the murder of character of the promoters of change are acts of clear despair, which do not dignify democracy, and which "will not prevent democratic alternation in 2022".
