He says Zambians will be able to judge and act, stating that Police and political parties should not underestimate the people of Zambia.

Mr Zimba says political parties should therefore abide by the law for the sake of peace and order in the country.

Mr. Zimba however, states that this does not mean Police should conduct themselves in an unprofessional and favour certain groups of people at the expense of others.

He says Police should not be seen to be applying the law in a selective manner when it comes to political activities.
