PETITIONER, LAWYER IN LUNGU’S ELIGIBILITY CASE RECEIVING THREATS

THE petitioner in former President Edgar Lungu’s eligibility case, Michelo Chizombe, and his lawyer Michael Moono’s lives are reportedly in danger following escalating verbal threats from some members of the public.

In an interview yesterday, Mr Moono confirmed that his client and himself are receiving random verbal threats from unknown people.

The lawyer says his client is considering seeking police protection even in the absence of having a clear identity of the people making the threats.

“Yes, our lives are in danger. If I said no, I would not be fair to the both of us. We now prefer to not move around as free as we used to because we are not just really safe.”

  1. That is PF for you. Is that not a felony in itself?
    Sue those thugs and send them where they belong, to the archives of History where they will go rated as the most dangerous group of people in the History of Zambia.

  2. If they are threatening you by way of a phone, report and they will be cornered, if it is through media, report and they can still be cornered

  3. UPND and their lies.

    Now I can clearly see why we rejected him 5 times before. I can see why we used to call him under 5.

    Vote wisely in 2026.

  4. Why should any one threaten you?
    Are the Zambians not supposed to be lavishing you with Roses and confetti for resurrecting an issue of Public Interest??
    You must be mistaken Mr Chizombe…they are cheering you. You are a hero, and deserving of an order of distinguished service first division…

  5. Threats on wise young men don’t make sense and how many will they threaten.Already there are a number of young women and men who are planning to apply for joinder meaning they want to submit something valuable to the full hearing of the matter when it comes.
