IT IS easy to take Thomas Sipalo’s bid for the Munali Parliamentary seat in Lusaka as a joke.
After all, Difikoti, as the comedian is popularly known, was recently seen campaigning for United National Independence Party (UNIP), which in the eyes of his fans seems to suit the old guard.
But make no mistake, he is serious about becoming Munali Member of Parliament (MP) and he wants his bid to be taken seriously.
“My life as a politician is different from comedy,” he says.
“Comedy is a talent, every person has a talent in life. I do comedy to sustain my life and I have gone into politics to serve the people of Munali because the constituency is under-developed”.
