    IT IS good that renowned Lusaka businessman Diego Casilli has put it on record that he has no plans of using his close relationship with President Hakainde Hichilema to engage in state capture.

    In Zambia, there’s corruption talk, not corruption fight

    THE Corruption Perception Index is out. Our conclusion is simple, there is an aggressive anti-corruption talk in Zambia, but not really an anti-corruption fight. In terms of corrupt actors and their activities, nothing much has changed. In terms of aggression from law enforcement agencies, there has been zero improvement. According to Transparency International, Zambia has...
