Commenting on micro-blogging website, Twitter, Lumumba likened the coalition to child’s play (mahumbwe) and said POVO is a grouping of unemloyed individuals who are resorting to politics to earn a living. Said Lumumba:

POVO mahumbwe. A group of unemployed and unemployables now resorting to politics, vana vakuswera kumahumbwe. ED needs to create jobs ndapota.
