Zambia’s main Opposition President Hakainde Hichilema has demanded that Ugandan President Yoweri Museveni apologises to Zambians for stating that the elections were free and fair.
Mr Hichilema says Zambia is a sovereign state which has its own laws adding that the Ugandan President is out of order to comment on the country’s political situation.
He says the election results are being challenged in the courts and that Ugandan President Yoweri Museveni’s comments are tantamount to contempt of court as the matter is in court.
And Mr Hichilema has since called on the Ugandan high commission to render a public apology on behalf of their president over utterances that UPND should stop fanning violence and accept the elections results.
Mr Hichilema cautions that the Ugandan President will not be allowed to introduce his style of leadership in Zambia as it is detrimental to development.
Upon his arrival in Zambia, Ugandan President Yoweri Museveni warned the opposition to stop fanning violence and accept the August, 2016 elections, a claim that the opposition has refuted.
