Zambians stream anti-government protest in the bush

Police in Zambia have warned that they will take stern against a group of young people who are streaming a banned anti-corruption protest online.

“We are also aware that they are streaming from some bush around Chalala, (in the capital, Lusaka),” Inspector General of Police Kakoma Kanganja said in a statement.

In anticipation of Monday’s protest in Lusaka’s city centre, Home Affairs Minister Stephen Kampyongo had deployed the police, warning the protesters to stay away or “risk being dealt with”.

MP Tutwa Ngulube from the governing Patriotic Front had also urged the police “to break their bones if possible”.

Some pictures of the police deployment have been shared online:
