    Lungu is riding a tiger, he can’t climb down

    That’s what power does. It goes to your head and when that happens, you cease to see the legal limitations of your ambitions.

    Lungu on course to become longest serving President

    We listened to President Edgar Lungu introducing his desire to contest the 2026 general elections with absolute bewilderment. We could not believe what was coming out of the President’s mouth, especially that he claims to have stopped taking what was regularly going into his mouth and making him high.
