We have learnt with shock and disbelief the horrendous and inconsiderate ruling by the Second Speaker of National Assembly Mr. Moses Moyo in which he has declared 9 PF SEATS VACANT.
By implication, the nation will be facing by-elections in the 9 affected constituencies at the time when the country is facing a national disaster of hunger affecting 6 million Zambians, long hours of countrywide loadshedding and a spiraling high cost of living affecting every Zambian.
As Citizens First, we consider this ruling to be ill timed, politically motivated and highly inconsiderate.
We urge the affected Members of Parliament to challenge this matter before the courts of law.
