AGP Executive Report

Last update: 5 hours ago

Diplomacy: Zambia has won a seat on the UN Human Rights Council for 2027–2029, pledging to champion rights and the rule of law. The vote was uncontested, drawing criticism from rights groups who say uncompetitive elections weaken the council’s credibility. Political Tensions: Former PF secretary-general Davies Mwila says he was attacked at the Supreme Court and has given those he accuses 30 days to apologise. The incident renews concern over political violence and calls for accountability. Courts: A Solwezi magistrate has declined jurisdiction in the sedition case against opposition figures Brian Mundubile and Makebi Zulu, sending it to the Lusaka High Court. Public Spending: State House says the 2026 Constituency Development Fund allocation remains K40 million per constituency, while plans for a crop-marketing entity would leave the Food Reserve Agency focused on strategic reserves.
