ZAMBIA MUST CONFRONT ELECTORAL CONCERNS TO MOVE FORWARD-BISHOP CHIKOYA

Former Council of Churches in Zambia General Secretary Bishop Emmanuel Chikoya has called for honest dialogue, justice and reconciliation as Zambia emerges from the 2026 General Elections.

Speaking on Diamond TVs Costa,Bishop Chikoya says while the elections were generally peaceful, the concerns raised by local and international observers over the electoral process must not be ignored, arguing that legitimate questions deserve transparent and credible answers.

He says those who feel aggrieved by the outcome must be given an opportunity to be heard through legitimate channels, stressing that moving forward should not mean glossing over unresolved issues, but confronting them honestly so that the country can achieve genuine closure.

Bishop Chikoya has also criticised the closure of the courts on the final day of the presidential petition window, saying the development created perceptions that some stakeholders were denied access to justice.

He is further calling on President-elect Hakainde Hichilema to set the tone for national healing by embracing all Zambians, including those who opposed him, while urging political leaders to engage in dialogue in a neutral environment.

Bishop Chikoya says Zambia must move away from vengeance and intolerance and embrace restorative approaches, warning that excessive arrests and unresolved grievances could deepen bitterness rather than promote reconciliation.

He says the church remains ready to facilitate dialogue, but insists that peace must be built on truth, justice and the willingness to listen to one another not simply on calls to forget what happened and move on.

RCJ CALLS FOR URGENT EL NIÑO RESILIENCE ACTION

The Restoration for Community Justice (RCJ) has called for urgent and coordinated action to strengthen climate resilience ahead of the anticipated El Niño season.

In a media statement today, RCJ Executive Director Mathews Mulenga explained that the phenomenon is expected to intensify droughts, floods, and food insecurity across Zambia.

Mulenga observed that these climate shocks threaten rural livelihoods and risk reversing hard-won development gains in food security and health.

He noted that proactive investments in climate adaptation, sustainable land management, and agroforestry are essential to reduce vulnerabilities in vulnerable communities.

Mulenga advanced that agroforestry offers a proven pathway to restore degraded land, enhance food production, and diversify rural incomes.

He said that his organisation is convening an Agroforestry Summit in Mpika District, Muchinga Province, to serve as a critical platform for action.

Mulenga affirmed that the summit will link grassroots innovation with national climate frameworks, including Zambia’s Nationally Determined Contributions and National Adaptation Plans.

He emphasised that the event aims to mobilise partnerships between government, local communities, and international agencies to scale up agroforestry solutions.

Mulenga stressed that rural voices, especially those of farmers, youth, and women, must be central to shaping Zambia’s climate response.

He added that inclusive dialogue and knowledge exchange at the summit will accelerate implementation of the country’s climate commitments.

Mulenga affirmed that without immediate action, the coming El Niño season could severely undermine progress in rural development and health.

He said that the summit is a rallying point for collective responsibility, and he invited all stakeholders to support this effort for a more resilient Zambia.

CHINA CONGRATULATES PRESIDENT HICHILEMA ON RE‑ELECTION - By Chinese Embassy in Zambia

Chinese Foreign Ministry Spokesperson Lin Jian congratulated President Hakainde Hichilema on his re‑election as President of the Republic of Zambia.

Lin Jian emphasized that China deeply values its relations with Zambia and stands ready to work with the Zambian government to deepen the two countries’ comprehensive strategic and cooperative partnership, aiming to deliver greater benefits to the people of both nations.

FIRE INCIDENT IN THE C*D UNDER INVESTIGATIONS

The Local Authority expresses deep concern over the fire incident that occurred near the Central Business District (C*D) lay-by, which is suspected to have originated from a drum containing fuel that was allegedly being sold illegally.

The Zimba Town Council strongly condemns the illegal sale and storage of fuel in undesignated public places, as such activities pose a serious threat to public safety, property and the environment. Selling fuel on the streets is unlawful and exposes citizens to unnecessary risks, including fire outbreaks, explosions and loss of life.

The Council's Fire Section is working closely with the Zambia Police Service and other relevant agencies to establish the exact cause of the fire. Investigations are underway, and any individuals found to have engaged in the illegal sale or handling of fuel will face the full force of the law.

The Council wishes to remind members of the public that the street sale of fuel is prohibited under Statutory Instrument No. 12 of 2018, the Local Government (Street Vending and Nuisances) Regulations, as well as the Energy Regulation Act No. 12 of 2019, which governs the safe storage, transportation and sale of petroleum products in Zambia.

Furthermore, Article 12 of the Constitution of Zambia (Amendment) Act No. 2 of 2016 guarantees every person the right to life, while Article 8 upholds human dignity, equity and social justice as national values and principles. These constitutional provisions place a duty on public institutions to safeguard the lives and wellbeing of citizens by enforcing laws that promote public safety.

The Council therefore urges all individuals involved in the illegal sale of fuel to cease the practice immediately and obtain the necessary licences and approvals from the relevant regulatory authorities before engaging in the fuel business.

Members of the public are also encouraged to report any illegal fuel trading activities to the Council.
