“The Anti-Corruption Commission has today summoned former Lusaka Province Minister Mr Bowman Lusambo to appear before the Commission. This is in connection with an investigation which borders on allegations against Mr Lusambo for being in possession of properties reasonably suspected to be proceeds of crime. Investigations into the matter are still on-going,” said Chibwe.
Meanwhile, Lusambo amused netizens when videos of him riding a bicycle to the ACC appeared on Facebook. He cited the increase in fuel prices.
