AGP Executive Report
Last update: 2 hours agoElection Integrity in Focus: With Zambia voting on 13 August, NRPUP presidential candidate Brian Mundubile is pushing ECZ and police to address what he calls late confusion over ballot marking, after ECZ chief electoral officer Brown Kasaro said a tick, dash or line can be valid as long as it stays inside one candidate’s box. Campaign Tensions: Police say they are aware of a viral Binwell Mpundu video in which he allegedly declared he is “ready to be killed and to kill,” while Tonse Pamodzi leaders dismiss rumours of a “phone ban” at polling stations. Security and Mobilisation: Mundubile cancelled a Southern Province rally over a reported security alert, opting for a virtual address, as analysts warn turnout—not rally crowds—may decide the vote. Cost of Living: Government fuel-tax relief is set to forgo about US$200m in tax revenue to cushion households from global oil price shocks. Sports—Women’s Football: Malawi stunned Ghana 2-1 to reach the Women’s World Cup for the first time, while Nigeria’s WAFCON run ended after defeat by Cameroon.
