Law Enforcement Agencies have been called upon to consider opening an investigation into claims that President Edgar Lungu wants to assassinate UPND leader Hakainde Hichilema.
Information and Broadcasting Services Permanent Secretary Chanda Kasolo says while President Lungu has not taken any legal action against those making such accusations against him, the Police should take the claims seriously.
Mr. Kasolo has told QTV News that if such a serious allegation is made, it is incumbent upon security wings to institute investigations.
He believes that the Zambia Police, in this case, already know whom to follow up and what matters to take to court on the accusations of assassination being made against the President.
