SEAN ‘ZERO’ TEMBO VOWS MANSLAUGHTER CHARGES OVER BLOCKED MEDICAL TRAVEL OF FORMER PRESIDENT THIS AUGUST WHEN HE BECOMES PRESIDENT

Leader of the Patriots for Economic Progress, Sean ‘Zero’ Tembo, has issued a stark warning: those accused of obstructing urgent medical care for the late former President Edgar Lungu will face the full weight of the law.

Unveiling his top five priorities for his t day in office, Tembo declared that any individual found to have participated in preventing Lungu from seeking medical treatment abroad would be pursued, prosecuted, and charged with manslaughter.

Framing the matter as one of justice rather than politics, Tembo vowed that accountability would be relentless—promising a sweeping legal reckoning for what he described as a grave denial of care with fatal consequences.
