PF likely to consider Lusambo for Kabushi seat re-contest
The Opposition Patriotic Front -PF says Former Kabushi Member Of Parliament Bowman Lusambo may be considered to re-contest the Kabushi seat in the forthcoming parliamentary by election in that constituency.
Speaking when he featured on Friday’s Edition of Let The People Talk Programme, PF Deputy Chairperson for Information and Publicity Emmanuel Mwamba said the former ruling party has done its consultations with the law and experts on the matter and understands that Mr. Lusambo is eligible to contest the seat.
This follows the nullification of the Kabushi seat which was held by Mr. Lusambo by the Constitutional Court on FrIday on grounds of electoral malpractice in the August 12, 2021 elections.
Meanwhile, the PF has demanded that its former Deputy Secretary General Mumbi Phiri is immediately taken to court for her murder charges.
Mr. Mwamba says in all fairness, Mrs. Phiri should have by now appeared in court and has alleged that the party is aware that its member’s long detention is being influenced by external factors especially that Chief Justice Mumba Malila has also expressed concern at the long detention of Mrs. Phiri without appearing in court.
