Zambia’s opposition Patriotic Front warned members of President Hakainde Hichilema’s constitutional reform committee that they could be held personally liable for public funds used in what it called an “illegal” process. Acting party leader Given Lubinda said the 25-member body was created outside legal provisions and urged the Ministry of Finance to halt funding. The government has not responded, while legal experts seek clarity on the committee’s constitutional basis.
