However, it come to the attention of the Zambia Police Service that during the said March-past, conveners exhibited a different agenda from the one whose permit they sort for.
Mr. Mwale says the agenda seemed to have highlighted issues of LGBTQ (Homosexuality).
According to the laws of Zambia, practicing homosexuality is a crime punishable by law. Sections 155 and 157 of the Penal Code Chapter 87 of the Laws of Zambia criminalize same-sex conduct between consenting adults. In addition, Zambia is a Christian nation and government does not champion homosexuality.
Mr. Mwale explains the application was made on February 22, 2023 and the march- past was slated for March 4, 2023 at the Rugby Club in the Show Grounds.
