TASILA LUNGU FAILS TO STOP FORFEITURE OF K8.8 MILLION FARM

December 26, 2024

Former President Edgar Lungu’s daughter, Tasila Lungu, has lost her bid to secure an injunction on the forfeiture of her Sinda farm, valued at K8.8 million.

The Economic and Financial Crimes Court ruled that Tasila failed to provide special circumstances to warrant a stay of execution, pending the determination of her appeal in the Court of Appeal.



The court also determined that Tasila’s appeal has no prospects of success. This ruling comes after Tasila’s application to halt the seizure of her farm, which was deemed to be proceeds of crime.

The Economic and Financial Crimes Court had initially ordered the forfeiture of the farm on September 17, 2024, citing that Tasila’s income between June 2015 and August 2021 was only K154,200, a significant disparity compared to the farm’s value of over K8.8 million.



Tasila’s appeal was denied by Judges Susan Wanjelani, Pixie Yangailo, and Vincent Siloka, who stated that her case lacked merit.

The court’s decision underscores the government’s efforts to combat corruption and ensure accountability in property ownership. The farm’s forfeiture is a significant victory in Zambia’s fight against economic crimes.

  1. The PF Vuvuzelas like idiot Indigo won’t post on this one.
    Look at these fake Christians stealing with impunity. It’s great that the government is finally taking back the resources of the Zambian people that Lungu et al stole. Next, however, they need to be jailed, starting with ECL himself. They irresponsibly borrowed to steal, not to develop the country. The subsequent debt has burdened the country and the repayment falls on generations of Zambians to come.
    Jail is where they need to be.

  2. Sometimes I fail to understand the Psych of Zambians. Looking at that Lungu’s daughter, where on earth can she make that amount of money K8.8m without even the basics of business acumen? and then you have people thinking she is being victimized. Wake up Zambians for once twapapata.

  3. Thieves are slowly losing everything which they acquired illegally. Even though she has run away to America she will be forced now to work there like a commoner as there will be no money being sent from zambia.
