Socialist Party (SP) is disappointed in Inspector General Graphael Musamba over intentions to fire several Police Officers deemed to loyal to the previous Government Administration, the Patriotic Front (PF).

SP Director Media, Brian Hapunda, said Mr. Musamba should be reminded that he is a seasoned Officer who has served under different regimes adding that Police Officers are Civil Servants that must be loyal to the Government of the day.

Mr. Hapunda said it would not be ideal for the High Command and the United Party for National Development (UPND) to fire some Officers in order to replace them with those that will be loyal to them for purposes of policing the 2026 general election.

He said it is sad for the IG to think that trained Officers can be called junkies.

Mr. Hapunda said the move by the IG will demoralise junior Officers.

The SP Director Media said the IG should work diligently so that Zambians can remember him for promoting professionalism.
