“Zambians should continue praying so that the liars should continue being exposed. It is amazing how this government can without any shame contradict itself. They preach the rule of law and the opposite is happening. This is institutio­nalised schizophre­nic…it is institutio­nal mythomania and for one to work with them, you too acquire the disease. But Zambians should not fall prey and we pray that such compulsive lying should be contained within themselves and should not contaminat­e our children,” Mr Lungu said.

And the former head of State has cautioned that if the Zambia Police under the command of Graphael Musamba love President Hakainde Hichilema that he should have a peaceful tenure of office up to 2026, they should listen to the voice of Zambians and the

Constituti­on in dischargin­g their mandate.

He said those in power should learn to listen to Zambians and that if they choose to be deaf to what people were complainin­g about, those who voted them into office would have no obligation to obey their command.

He said he had cautioned that the Zambia Police under Mr Musamba could easily bring down the Hichilema government much earlier than 2026 but was concerned that the police had continued acting funny and carrying out their duties without observing the Constituti­on and the rule of law. “President Hichilema has continued talking about the rule of law but Zambians are not being given the space to assemble or even talk freely. One does not need to be a political scientist to read the signs that Zambians are not happy with the manner they are being governed.
