…DEC Summons His Wife Esther And Daughter Tasila
President Hakainde Hichilema says his focus now is to recover the money which was alleged stolen by PF.
The hunt for former president Edgar Lungu has been intensified according to insiders within Government.
The coming days will be busy. We are told Lungu will be kept busy with court issues involving his family.
Grounds are being laid to justify calls for lifting his immunity. The challenge though is that the UPND does not have the two third majority required to lift a former president’s immunity.
Last week President Hichilema at a public meeting said he would be tabling an issue which he asked for support in the process of recovering the stolen money.
The idea is to keep Lungu busy with court and police issues away from politics insiders say. The law enforcement agencies will be busy the coming days.
So far Lungu has been busy of late with the court issues of his wife who is undergoing trial in the Magistrate court.
Some UPND members feel the reluctance by government on the PF leaders have given them time to start mobilizing to bounce back.
President Hichilema himself warned of mingalato if the PF starts regrouping to come back. He says there is no kubwelelapo for PF.

Is it political numbers that should determine if Edgar Lungu is to lose his immunity or the quality of the evidence investigators have assembled?
