ambia opposition demands release of leader held for treason: HumSub.TV: Zambia’s main opposition party called for the immediate release of its leader, Hakainde Hichilema, who was charged with treason this week for failing to move off the road for the president’s motorcade.
Hichilema wasn’t driving the vehicle that allegedly obstructed the president and the charges are politically motivated, United Party for National Development Vice President Geoffrey Mwamba told reporters Thursday in the capital, Lusaka. Mwamba said he’s also being targeted for arrest.
“This was a pre-planned move to arrest Hakainde Hichilema,” he said. “I’m also on the chopping board. They’re also coming to arrest me.”
The treason charge followed months of tension between the opposition and the government. Hichilema has refused to recognise the results of an election in August that he lost to President Edgar Lungu. He was last arrested in October over allegations of unlawful assembly and says he’s been detained at least 16 times in the past five years.
Police Inspector General Kakoma Kanganja told reporters on Wednesday that Hichilema ignored orders and obstructed a presidential motorcade in an attempt to put Lungu’s life in danger.
“Let’s remain calm,” Mwamba said as UPND members gathered at the party’s headquarters jeered. “Let’s not fall in their trap. They want to declare a state of emergency.”
Yields on the $1 billion Eurobonds due April 2024 fell for the first time in four days, dropping 2 basis points to 8.06 per cent by 11:22 am in London.
