When I interviewed him, former president Edgar Lungu named three individuals he was courting and considering to back in Zambia’s 2026 election. None of them are in politics. I discuss this subject and how Hichilema can comfortably win re-election in this interview with KBN TV.

"I knew he (former President Edgar Lungu) had passed on very early in the morning, on the 5th of June, but i decided we say nothing until we had consulted the family, and so i reached out to the secretary of cabinet, my team around me; i said i cannot announce his death before the family is engaged, but the family refused to engage, subject for another conversation." - Zambian President Hakainde Hichilema. 🔴As the battle over the burial of former Zambian President Edgar Lungu between his fanily and government intensifies, President Hakainde Hichilema's administration has moved to block his interment in South Africa. Lungu and Hichilema were bitter political rivals. Zambian Attorney-General Mulilo Kabesha has filed an urgent application for an interdict against the burial of Lungu in South Africa in the Gauteng Division of the High Court, Pretoria. After some hostilities, the family and the government temporarily found a solution to the dispute before the deal broke down. Lungu's family now wants him to be buried in South Africa, while government wants him interred back home in a state funeral. The fight over Lungu's body has sucked in the South African and Zimbabwean governments who are trying to resolve the matter behind the scenes amid a cold hardening of positions on both sides. The situation is reminiscent of the fight between the late former president Robert Mugabe and President Emmerson Mnangagwa' government over Mugabe’s burial in 2019.

PRESIDENT HICHILEMA TURNS UP THE HEAT ON FORMER PRESIDENT LUNGU IN A DEVELOPMENT that smacks of extreme paranoia, and an escalation of political tensions that could trigger instability, the Zambian government today dramatically ejected former President Edgar Lungu off a plane, stopping him from travelling on a scheduled commercial flight to South Korea - via Addis Ababa, Ethiopia - just nine days after President Hichilema blocked Lungu from travelling to South Africa for medial review. Lungu had been invited along with other eminent persons who include former Presidents in the region as a guest spesk at a World Peace Conference taking place in South Korea, and he had reportedly made his own personal arrangements for his travel to South Korea. Below is a report on the shocking incident from Smart Eagles in Lusaka: "Government using officers from the Immigration Department has ejected former Republican President Dr Edgar Chagwa Lungu off a Plane he had boarded that was destined for South Korea. Government this Saturday afternoon stopped former President Edgar Lungu from travelling. President Lungu was scheduled to fly out to South Korea via Addis Ababa, Ethiopia. He was checked in and given boarding passes and proceeded to the plane but Due to sudden instructions “from above” the airport officials quickly got him off the plane and announced to him that they had cancelled his trip. The former President was invited as guest speaker together with other former Presidents in the region to a World Peace Conference to be held in Soul, South Korea. The Former Head of State had made personal arrangements to travel for the conference in South Korea. NB: Former President Edgar Lungu has absolute rights to travel to any place of his choosing at home and abroad without having to require permission from any kind of authority. He is only expected to notify government of his intent to travel and in turn government facilitates his travel but in the event that government refuses to facilitate, the former head of state is at liberty to make his personal arrangements for any such travel." Smart Eagles Report from Lusaka, Zambia; 16 September 2023
