We will not tolerate lawlessness during 2026 election period – Hichilema
PRESIDENT Hakainde Hichilema has warned that his government will not tolerate lawlessness before, during and after the 2026 general elections.
Addressing parliament in Lusaka yesterday, President Hichilema thanked citizens for embracing the peaceful atmosphere around the country since the UPND assumed office.
“I want to thank citizens for embracing good citizenship. This is the peaceful atmosphere we expect from all of us. As we enter the election season next year, we will not tolerate any lawlessness of whatever form, before, during and after elections. Let’s use the courts,” he said.
The Head of State explained that government has introduced mobile court sessions in correctional facilities to accelerate the dispensation of justice and ease case backlogs.
He reiterated that his administration’s stance on zero tolerance for corruption and economic crimes had remained firm, stressing that citizens can now see the quiet but deliberate work that government has been undertaking.
“We hope it will be a deterrent to others, including those of us in office today. We need a society that rewards ethical conduct, good conduct, a society that values hard work and frowns upon corruption not one that dances for it,” said President Hichilema.
He also urged eligible voters to take part in the democratic process by registering ahead of the 2026 polls.
“The Electoral Commission of Zambia (ECZ) will soon conduct a voter registration sensitisation exercise and we urge all eligible citizens to register so they can participate in choosing their leaders,” he explained.

Hakainde the liar. Let him just say he will arrest anyone that is not UPND or from his region. That is all he does, while giving immunity to his own people. I can not wait for the day that we vote you out and give you a taste of your own medicine. I can not wait for independence day next year, when we will be freed from tyranny, corruption and rampant tribalism. We will kick out Freemasons and free all political prisoners. We will jail all those involved in KKIA gold scandal, theft of sulligate and medicine.
VOTE FOR CHANGE IN 2026.
When are you going back to Tanganyika asshole.Which of his people were given immunity.Jail is waiting for you soon,all these malicious accusations can’t stand. Time will come to locate you.Hopefully you will be in Tanzania/Congo your home country.Keep on dreaming for another 5yrs writing nonsense.It really pains you to HH managing the country. Bitterness and tribalism ,will to take you to an early grave.
Ah, it is you again, HaaMusonda, a whole COW in a monkey skin. You keep shitting cow dung. Zambia does not belong to you people alone. After 2026, we will pick you up from your village in Namwala and jail you for insults and tribalism. Stalking is a crime too, iwe. What is wrong with you? You must have mad cow disease. You exhibit the same ulunkonena just like your messiah. You probably share the same father, that cow thief from Gwembe.
VOTE FOR CHANGE IN 2026.
“A society that values hardwork and frowns upon corruption”. Very noble pronouncements. We need to work hard to restore these values after PF imparted their “uubomba mwibala alya mwibala” values. This also means holding erring individuals accountable so that people are aware that their actions have consequences, good or bad.
Let us also level the playing ground as we go into the elections next year so that all parties are given equal access to the public and public facilities such as ZNBC. What we had in the run up to the 2021 elections under PF was disgraceful. That they lost the elections speaks to divine intervention.
Wont tolerate rigging either aisha!
PF must swallow their bitter pill. HH should just have allowed the boys to enjoy enjoy and celebrate victory for one week. We by now be knowing the PF hardcore’s by their scars. PF should be thanking HH. Presidio muntu sana. PF are thugs. Given was clapped by his own supporter and was ordered to drop the case by Edgar.
The buffoons don’t and will never support and encourage sanity, righteousness nor hard working. Whoever talks against anarchy is hated by the Buffoons. Whoever talks about preventing or stopping corruption and stealing is hated by the Buffoons. Whoever talks about hard working, being productive and self reliance, is hated by the Buffoons. Good stance Mr president! Let the government tolerate not the lawlessness, of the buffoons. Any one who is against sanity is a buffoon. It’s the leadership of the Buffoons who have been sponsoring some youths to open TV STUDIOS to serve as platforms for generating and broadcasting abominable insults against their fellow adults. They have even enticed and set some younger mps to shower insults in the National Assembly. That’s is the culture of the buffoons. But they should not be tolerated at all.
