Dear Madam Speaker,
URGENT – Reference: Pending Petition in Law Association of Zambia v The Speaker of the National Assembly (2023SCC/0015) – Request for Undertaking to Preserve Status Quo on Bill No. 7
1. We act for the Petitioner in the proceedings concerning Bill 7 presently before the Constitutional Court. We write with reference to the National Assembly press release dated 22nd August 2025, wherein the National Assembly announced its intention to “readily to resume” the constitutional review process, “awaiting the indication by the necessary.”
2. In context, that statement appears to refer to the resumption of Bill 7, the very subject of our client’s Petition. As the matter is sub judice, any step by the schedule, or otherwise advance Bill 7 risks rendering the Petition nugatory and raises concerns of propriety and neutrality while the Constitutional Court is seized.
3. Accordingly, and without prejudice, we respectfully request a written undertaking by 16:00 hours, Monday, 8 September 2025, that the National Assembly will not fast-track, or in any way advance Bill 7 pending the determination of any interlocutory application, motion, or process with equivalent effect) pending the Constitutional Court’s determination of the Petition or further order.
4. If there is any misunderstanding, and the phrase “resume the process” was not intended to refer to Bill 7, kindly clarify this in writing by the same deadline.
5. In the absence of the undertaking or clarification sought, our instructions are to approach the Court for appropriate conservatory relief and directions. Our client reserves all rights, including as to costs.
We trust that Your Office will respect the Constitution and give this request the urgent consideration it merits, in the public interest.
Yours Sincerely,
SIMEZA SANGWA & ASSOCIATES
That’s the way to go.
This government thinks it’s above the Constitution.
Whoever facilitates the re-introduction of the Illegal Bill 7 should be cited for Contempt, and impeachment proceedings should be commenced.
These people have gone too far.
On my Ballot on 13th August,2026
Will be
Hakainde’s Executive Misrule
Nellie Mutti ‘s Parliament
Mumba Malila’s Judiciary
The Axis
The Axis will fall on 13th August 2026
Do you understand the principle of three arms of government? The courts do not have power over parliament on what bills can or cannot be tabled in the house, doing so is judicial overreach. The courts can only come in once a bill passes in to law but it is deemed to infringe on other parts of the constitution, not before the bill is passed. Such things are even known by eight pupil in civic education, unless you missed this subject.
Nellie Mutti was once upon a time charged with theft and forgery. There is no smoke without fire. This case will get revived when this corrupt regime is booted out in 2026. We will also revist all those that got rich during privatisation. Ba pompwe! Impupu. There will be nowhere to hide.
REJECT TRIBALISM, CORRUPTION AND OPPRESSION.
VOTE FOR CHANGE IN 2026.
Is she really a lawyer? May a cadre lawyer.
Bill 7 is good for Zambia and indeed even for Constituencies which are very big but are not equitably benefiting from the increased CDF. Talk of North-Western Province. Despite being one of the biggest province in Zambia and contributing big time to the national treasury but have only 12 constituencies and CDF can’t even make a difference- just dropping like in the ocean and for you Sangwa to to stand together with PIEFU bloody corrupt remnants and add evill blind sentments, you are becoming big time their enemy, to tell you but the truth. Even your PieFu prospects of presidential hopeful, just with one, it will flop. NIPANO TULI
Think of the issue of 14 days for pertitioning presidential elections which you Saangwapo up to now you can’t even tell us the judgment since you were one of the lawyers representing his Excellency the President of the Republic of Zambia. President HH. The issue of 14 days disturbed you but for you to change when this law is being proposed for amandment is a very bif mockery to Zambians who used to admire your intelligence, but just because of silver your greenness will bring you to nothing. Becsuse today’s Zambia and foward is not the same of your PIEFU ten kwacha tantamenu it is changing rapidly and at a fastest rate because the majority are getting the knowhow through free education and hard work. Work work work and more work
Propotional represention – a very good idea from the visionery government. But with you, you only dream of gassing and COMANDA.
But you Sangwa has now become a very big cadre of the blood gassing PieFu. I saw the excitement when on the plane to SA where you wanted to bury your late Lungu. All the crooks mobilized and moved into SA.But kwena awee sure.
So your schemes of trying to frustarte progressive bills with your ka lazzy zulu will not work out. God is great and all will go well as already planned for our mother Zambia. Wukashala muli mwamoneni. NIPANO Tuli
As for today, it is just foward no need iyakuya kumalushi. For what.
Moving with educated youths forward always.
We no interested in foolish threats, we are interested in development please.
The move through the so called Sangwa lawyers is nothing but a political opposition move. The move is not actually against Muti, but against the new dawn government and particularly against HH, who is doing unchallengeable developmental stances. Their aim is to block HH’s good vision and and developmental mission. They believe that if HH goes on with his good dynamic, impressive and appreciative innovative developmental the whole nation may rally behind him with all kinds of praises. And the corrupt crooked Buffoons may not have any meaningful slots in the nation. Any good move by HH is bad to them. Remember the block of buffoons, opposed the introduction of free education, increments of CDF, increments of maize prices, reintroduction of students meal allowances, increments of social cash transfer, increments of chiefs and retainers allowances. This time they have risen in unity to oppose the good plan to increase constituencies, meant to facilitate fair distribution of national resources and speed up development of the nation. The buffoons don’t want all these. Please we need development. Some of our constituences are just too big, too populated. Please allow the Bil7 to go through, it’s good for us especially the less privileged communities.
We need delimitations to happen no further delayments needed.Please let Parliament do it’s business freely.Bills are for Parliament scrutiny through that dignified house.They move in stages if they go through the three stages, the President may do the needful.The suspension was just to allow for further consultations.Otherwise Nalolo like Kanchibiya constituencies are too vast.With Nalolo there is a vast plain and river Zambezi passes in between two sides making west bank and easy. I have never ever heard of a situation where a bill can be stopped or dictated upon outside Parliament.This monopoly of intelligence must start worrying us.
