BREAKING NEWS: President Hichilema Rejects Public Gatherings Bill, Cites Public Interest Concerns

By Staff Reporter,

President Hakainde Hichilema has declined to assent to the controversial Public Gatherings Bill, describing it as undemocratic and contrary to the public interest.

The bill was among several pieces of legislation passed by the National Assembly during the final days of its last sitting. According to parliamentary sources, President Hichilema returned the bill on May 29, citing reservations about signing it into law.

The proposed legislation required any individual intending to hold a public gathering to notify the police at least five days in advance and obtain clearance before proceeding. It broadly defined a public gathering as any assembly, meeting, procession, or demonstration involving three or more people in a public place.

The bill also expanded the definition of a public place to include highways, marketplaces, squares, roads, streets, bridges, public buildings, and other areas lawfully accessible to the public.

The proposed law attracted widespread criticism from citizens, civil society organisations, and governance advocates, who argued that it would impose excessive restrictions on fundamental freedoms and could prove more restrictive than the existing Public Order Act.

The President's decision has been welcomed by many stakeholders who had raised concerns over the bill's potential impact on the rights to assembly and expression.

NGOCC Slams 'Secretive' Signing and Selective Enforcement of Public Gathering Act

By Rogan Labika,

The Non-governmental Gender Organisations’ Coordinating Council (NGOCC) has strongly condemned the secretive signing and rapid enforcement of the Public Gathering Act of 2026 by President Hakainde Hichilema.

NGOCC Executive Director Anne Mbewe-Anamela labeled the government’s lack of a formal announcement a direct affront to democratic accountability.

She noted that rushing a law of such constitutional significance through the National Assembly left stakeholders with no room for genuine scrutiny.

The council expressed particular alarm over reports that police in Mazabuka have already invoked Section 9 of this unpublicized law to block former UPND lawmaker Gary Nkombo from launching his independent campaign for Mazabuka Central.

NGOCC warned that selectively using state power to curtail political activities sets a dangerous precedent, especially when the government has chosen to remain completely silent on a law that restricts the constitutional right to assemble under Article 21.

The organization is demanding that the government immediately explain its lack of transparency, while challenging both the Zambia Police and the Electoral Commission of Zambia to remain impartial and ensure fair play as campaigns for the 2026 general elections intensify.

ECONOMIST ATTRIBUTES ECONOMIC STABILITY TO GOVT POLICIES

By Kalonje Mumba,

Economist Lubinda Habazoka has attributed Zambia’s improving economic performance to deliberate government policies, dismissing suggestions that the current stability is linked to the election period.

Speaking to Mafken News, Dr. Habazoka said the country’s positive economic outlook is the result of sustained policy interventions implemented over the past five years.

He cited the decline in inflation from above 20 percent to single-digit levels, as well as the relative stability of the Kwacha, as evidence of progress in the economy.

Dr. Habazoka said efforts to restore macroeconomic stability and strengthen public finances have played a key role in improving economic conditions.

He added that while some citizens may not yet be experiencing the full benefits, the gains will become more noticeable over time, noting that years of high inflation had significantly reduced purchasing power.

MOTHER APPEALS FOR HELP FOR DAUGHTER WITH UNDIAGNOSED SKIN CONDITION.

By Morgan Chomba,

A mother of a Grade One pupil at Mokambo Combined School has appealed to well-wishers, health specialists and relevant authorities for assistance in securing specialized medical treatment for her seven-year-old daughter.

Prisca Mwila says her daughter, Miracle Kashibeni, was born with an unknown skin condition that has remained undiagnosed despite numerous visits to health facilities.

She explained that doctors have been unable to determine the exact nature of the illness, despite years of seeking medical attention.

Speaking to Mafken News, Ms. Mwila said the condition has affected her daughter's confidence and daily life, as she often wears a cap to school to cover her head.

She has since appealed to individuals, organisations and medical experts who may be able to assist with further examinations and treatment to help improve Miracle's condition and quality of life.

INDEPENDENT CANDIDATES SUE ECZ OVER CANDLE SYMBOL DECISION

A group of independent candidates has petitioned the High Court for Zambia seeking leave to commence judicial review proceedings against the Electoral Commission of Zambia (ECZ) over its decision to revoke and replace the "Candle" symbol previously allocated to independent candidates.

The applicants are challenging ECZ’s decision, arguing that the commission unilaterally revoked the symbol and is seeking to impose alternative symbols on independent candidates who do not voluntarily choose replacements.

The applicants in the matter are Simon Mwila, Michael Chuulu, Faith Lungu, Gary Nkombo and Iris Kaingu Kamwi. The candidates are seeking the court's intervention to review the legality and fairness of the commission's decision regarding the allocation of election symbols.
