Zambia’s President Warned Against Coup Plotters

On Tuesday, Zambian police summoned former first lady Esther Lungu “for the purpose of interviews” at 10AM on Wednesday, September 6. It remains unclear why she has attracted police interest.

Her husband, former president Edgar Lungu, travelled to Zimbabwe on Sunday ahead of President Emmerson Mnangagwa’s inauguration on Monday.

Mnangagwa, who came to power in 2017 through a military coup, appeared to invite Lungu out of spite after Hichilema boycotted the event. Hichilema, the current chair of the SADC troika, deployed election observers who concluded that the poll did not meet regional and international
