101 independent candidates face disqualification in High Court petition!

Governance activist Isaac Mwanza and the consortium of civil society organizations for good governance and constitutionalism have petitioned the high court to disqualify 101 parliamentary candidates who filed nominations as independents for the august 13, 2026 general election.

Named as respondents are former health minister and patriotic front presidential candidate Chitalu Chilufya, Mazabuka Central MP Gary Nkombo, Patriotic Front President Miles Sampa, and 98 other independent candidates.

The electoral commission of Zambia, the attorney general, UPND Secretary General Batuke Imenda, and PF Secretary General Morgan Ng’ona are also cited.

The petitioners argue the candidates filed as independents while still members of political parties, in violation of article 51(a) of the constitution, which bars party members from contesting as independents.

They allege that the candidates did not resign or renounce party membership before lodging nomination papers with the Electoral Commission of Zambia -ECZ-.

Central to the case is a letter attributed to Mr. Imenda, which the petitioners say confirms that 90 UPND members filed as independents without resigning from the ruling party.

The petition further alleges many of the affected candidates initially sought party adoption and paid nomination fees, but switched to independent nominations after failing to secure tickets, without formally ending party membership.

On prominent respondents, the petition notes Mr. Nkombo was serving as UPND MP for Mazabuka Central when he filed as an independent, while Mr. Sampa remained pf president at the time of filing, and Mr. Chilufya was publicly announced as the pf’s 2026 presidential candidate.

The petitioners also contend no proof of resignation was submitted to ECZ before or at nomination, and that ECZ’s acceptance of the filings undermines constitutionalism, electoral integrity, and the rule of law.

Mr. Mwanza and the consortium are asking the court to declare the 101 nominations unconstitutional, null and void, and to order the ECZ to remove the affected candidates from the august 2026 parliamentary ballot.

Kasenengwa Woman R***d While Escaping Marital Dispute

A 21-year-old woman of Kasala Village in Chief Madzimawe’s area of Kasenengwa District has allegedly been r***d after boarding a motorcycle while travelling to her parents’ home after a domestic dispute.

The incident is believed to have occurred on May 26, 2026 around 19:00 hours.

Eastern Province Police Commissioner Robertson Mweemba said the victim allegedly boarded a motorcycle ridden by Emmanuel Moyo, 16, who was accompanied by James Banda, 18, both of Kasala Village.

Mr Mweemba said the victim had earlier left her matrimonial home in Ulenje Village, Chief Nzamane’s area in Chipata District following a misunderstanding with her husband.

He explained that while on their way to Kasala Village, the suspects allegedly stopped the motorcycle and attacked the woman before one of them allegedly r***d her.

“The victim shouted for help and a passerby came to her rescue,” Mr Mweemba said.

Police said the victim later reported the matter and was issued with a medical report form for examination at Chipata Central Hospital.

The suspects are currently on the run while investigations have been instituted.

The Supreme Court of Appeal in South Africa is this morning hearing an appeal involving the remains of former late President Edgar Lungu.

The appeal has been filed by the Lungu family, who are challenging a Pretoria High Court ruling delivered in August 2025. The court ruled that the Zambian government is entitled to repatriate the remains of the former president to Zambia for a state funeral and burial.

In the same judgment, the court ordered Two Mountains Mortuary to release the remains to representatives of the Zambian High Commission for repatriation to Zambia.
