ECL Should Not Be Re-Installed As A President In Death
Government should not allow former president Edgar Lungu to preside over the country in death, especially that he lost power thoroughly when he was alive.
What we are seeing are not attempts to respect the dead or the wishes of the dead, these are blatant attempts to re-instate ECL as a president in death. Since ECL died, the PF have been attempting to run a parallel state and this can be seen in the demands and or pronouncements the party has been making such as;
1.) Declaring A Seven Day Mourning Period. The PF declared a seven day period of national mourning before government announced the official one, with which authority? We hope to know later.
2. The head of state should not preside over the state funeral of a former head of state. This perhaps was the clearest attempt by the PF to undermine and possibly show disregard to the presidency, maybe this is plan B? We never will know
3. We will choose who speaks: Again here the PF were actually trying to show that we are in charge, ECL is in charge even in death.
Ala it’s enough now. We have seen the bigger person and honestly, we have always known the bigger person.
The PF can not and should not be allowed to continue sailing on treasonous waters all in the name of a funeral, they are not only undermining the presidency, they are manipulating a country, trying to gain entry using the doors of empathy, it’s enough!

Let’s just do a citizen’s arrest on these four idi-ots. Basosa umuponokelo nomba. South African government must refuse to be drawn into this fiasco. It should give them a two days ultimatum to leave that country. These chaps are crafty, some of them could be secretly planning for asylum. I hope not. We want to see these devils walk the streets of Lusaka. PF is cursed. I see darkness among there file and rank.
Are they still gathering at their PF secretariat; which was said to lack adequate sanitary facilities and insisted on the status quo.
Refusing mourning facilities where such amenties would be adequate and sanitary.
What do you expect to be happening at the Secratariat? You a clip of rascals behind a Land cruiser truck signing songs of insults. They are just easting, smoking, drinking and doing some hanky panky business in cars when it’s dark; these cursed vagabonds.
Sounds like Sodom and Gomorah than weeping and mourning for ECL.
Why are you people so bothered what happens to ECL and the funeral? Please make us understand. You are now even telling your messiah to start arresting citizens. What law will he use to arrest them? Just let it go and respect the wishes of the family. Get back to your own lives and just let it be. Everyone that loved ECL is very happy with the decision made, but his enemies are fuming, why????
VOTE FOR CHANGE IN 2026.
Before writing on the latest happening in the conduct of ECL funeral,it is important to first realise that both Lungu’s family and Government had an agreement where various tasks and funeral programme were agreed.It is therefore not right that one of the parties to the agreement starts to deviate from the original understanding.
Whether we like it or not,Lungu has a family to which he belonged and supported.Their grief cannot be compared to any other non relative.There is a history of ECL how he was treated after his Presidency which regrettably cannot be reversed in his death.This I am afraid will continue to be a bother.
Arrest them please !!! We rea tired of nonsense,this is the reason we voted them out we want peace of mind.
I do not understand this anger and hurt by birthright and UPND people. Just move on with your lives. ECL is still smarter than all of you put together.
VOTE FOR CHANGE IN 2026.
