Forum for Democratic Alternatives Party (FDA) President Ludwig Sondashi says his party feels it will be a waste of money and time to participate by-elections being held.
Dr Sondashi says his party does not intend to run for any by-elections taking place from now on wards for strategic reasons.
He says his party is instead focusing on preparations for the general elections in 2016 which are just around the corner.
Dr Sondashi for these reasons, they will wait until 2016 when they shall come out in full swing and take part in all presidential, parliamentary and local government elections.
