S 1 - 2 D I ID RK RT C - 0

Opposition MP Brian Mundubile and lawyer Celestine Mukandila sued President Hakainde Hichilema in Zambia’s Constitutional Court, claiming he violated the Constitution by beginning amendment efforts without broad public consultation. They say the president ignored a prior court ruling that found the same reform approach unconstitutional. The petition argues Hichilema breached his oath of office and should be disqualified from future presidential races. The Attorney General is also named in the case.
