BRIAN MUNDUBILE- ZAMBIA'S DEMOCRATIC BAROMETER
By Patson Kasongo
Like him or hate him, Mundubile is the barometer that has exposed how healthy or unhealthy our democracy is... More questions than answers are here;
1. COURTS CLOSING made it impossible for petition to happen. It was first of its kind. Who closed the courts and what does it say about the separation of power for the three arms of government? Eloi!!!
2. MILITIA ACCUSATIONS will most likely end in nolle prosequi... which will inevitably be concluded as act of oppression. Eloi!!!
3. HALTING VOTE COUNTING across the country maybe ignored for now but it will haunt many later.... People will answer questions they may not answer now... Zambia will eventually ask the questions. Eloi!!!
4. PARTY OFFICIALS CHASED FROM TOTALING CENTER for asking questions was unnecessary and at the same time undemocratic...you cannot only be with those that speak the way you like. Eloi!!!
5. GUILTY UNTIL PROVEN GUILTY. Who authorized the airing of MILITIA STORY AS FOREGONE CONCLUSION WITHOUT DUE JUDICIAL PROCESS? How could it be concluded as such when the people involved were but accused... being available and since they presented themselves in public space meant they could be called for questioning anytime.. Eloi!!!
6. EVEN IF PRESIDENT HH WON, answers to many questions must still be given... Eloi!!!
7. Is our democracy safe? ELOI!!!
