DEC breaks into deceased Lungu's Libala property

OFFICERS from the Drug Enforcement Commission - DEC have allegedly broken into the residence of late former President Edgar Lungu in Lusaka’s Libala area.

In an exclusive interview with Diamond News, one of the lawyers for the former President, has confirmed the development.

He has disclosed that the officers are also collecting vehicles belonging to Mr. Lungu’s son, Dalitso Lungu.

The vehicles were recently forfeited to the State for being deemed tainted.

However, Dalitso Lungu appealed the decision of the Economic and Financial Crimes Court to have the said vehicles and other properties forfeited.

He has described the conduct of the officers as total lawlessness.

He also claims that the officers have refused to show their search warrant to him as a lawyer, Diamond TV's Darius Choonya reports.

Zambia’s public debt climbs to USD 28.9 billion!

Finance Minister Situmbeko Musokotwane says Zambia’s total public sector debt stood at 28.9 billion US dollars at the end of December 2025, reflecting marginal increases in both domestic and external obligations

Delivering a Ministerial Statement to Parliament of Zambia on Thursday, Dr. Musokotwane says the debt stock comprises 16.1 billion US dollars in central government external debt, 1.4 billion US dollars in government-guaranteed external debt, and 253.7 billion kwacha in domestic debt.

He has explained that domestic debt contracted through government securities rose slightly by 0.4 percent, from 252.8 billion kwacha in September 2025 to 253.7 billion kwacha by year-end.

The increase was aligned with programmed financing needs under the 2025 Annual Borrowing Plan.

On the external front, government debt increased by 0.7 percent from 16.04 billion US dollars in September to 16.1 billion US dollars in December 2025, largely driven by disbursements from multilateral partners.

Meanwhile, the Minister has reported improvements in Zambia’s external sector.

He says the current account deficit narrowed sharply to 25.1 million US dollars by end-September 2025 from 541.6 million US dollars in June, supported by a stronger goods balance that rose to 600 million US dollars, boosted by copper and non-traditional exports.

Gross foreign reserves also strengthened to 5.5 billion US dollars at the end of December, up from 5.2 billion US dollars in September — equivalent to 5.2 months of import cover.

Dr. Musokotwane has attributed the increase to disbursements under the IMF programme, project inflows, statutory reserve deposits, purchases by Bank of Zambia, and interest earnings.
