CONCOURT SETS DATE TO RULE ON WHETHER OR NOT TO ALLOW FRESH LITIGATION ON EDGAR CHAGWA LUNGU’S ELIGIBILITY

By CORRESPONDENT
The Constitutional Court has reserved July 8, 2024 for ruling on whether or not to allow fresh litigation on former President EDGAR LUNGU’s eligibility for 2021 General Elections and future ones.

Constitutional Court President Margaret Munalula has announced the ruling date after the presentation of submissions by the litigant’s lawyers, the state and defence lawyers on a preliminary issue on whether or not the case can be re-litigated.

The full bench of Constitutional Court judges included Justice Munalula and her deputy Anold Shilimi, sitting with nine others.

This is in a matter where UPND cadre Michelo Chizombe has contested former President Edgar Lungu’s eligibility for the 2021 and future Presidential elections.

Chizombe has submitted before the Constitutional Court that the Electoral Commission of Zambia ( ECZ) breached article 52 of the Constitution by accepti.

  1. To start with, the concourt judges must come under oath to tell the nation the force behind their unsound judgements.
    How on earth do you call a green paper red?
    Zambians know too well the hand that was behind the fake judgements and why Pule had to go to court.
    Justice must at all cost prevail.
    The man has been sworn twice. That is all.

  2. Let the delay further to put ECL in a confused state. Let him CAMPAIGN AS MUCH AS HE WANT only for the Court to RULE AT LAST MINUTE. THAT GUY stole a lot, let him give back to the community!! Chishimba Kambwili was labeled a “CRIMINAL” and he sensed FASTER THAT kwiina caakwe and FOLDED HIS TAIL and no more on political scene. LUNGU SHOULD WISE UP AND DECIDE what he wants, either Statesmanship or Kaponya way of life.
