The Southern African Centre for the Constructive Resolution of Disputes (SACCORD) has urged people aggrieved by Director of Public Prosecutions Lillian Siyuni on grounds of incompetence, among others, to use laid down procedure to address such grievances.

In a statement availed to Q-news, SACCORD Executive Director, Boniface Cheembe has cited the action taken by activist Chama Fumba popularly known as Pilato to report the DPP to the Judicial Complaints Commission as the laid down procedure.

Mr. Cheembe states that SACCORD will be following up the matter before the JCC as submitted by Mr Fumba with keen interest as it has a bearing on the strength of the country’s governance and democracy.

He states that this has a bearing on the extent to which citizens of the Republic of Zambia continue to have faith in using established institutions to address their grievances and thereby contribute to maintaining the peace of the country.
