CHAWAMA SEAT DECLARED VACANT

Speaker of the National Assembly Nelly Mutti has declared the Chawama seat held by Tasila Lungu vacant, following a vote by Members of Parliament, citing Article 72 (2) (c) of the Constitution of Zambia.

👇👇👇👇*Understanding Bill 7: Why Citizens Across Zambia Are Saying NO*

1. *Bill 7 Gives the President Automatic Power in Parliament*

▪️ The Bill allows the President to gain a two-thirds majority through delimitation, not through the people’s vote.

▪️ This means laws including constitutional amendments can be changed at the President’s discretion.

▪️ The Bill appears designed to secure political power rather than strengthen national governance.
