Zambia Elections | Ex-president Lungu barred from seeking re-election

The Zambian Constitutional Court has ruled that former President Edgar Lungu is not eligible to run for another term in office. This after Lungu had indicated his plan to return to active politics. The court has also indicated that Lungu's first term, which he served from 2015 to 2016 after the death of former President Michael Sata, counted as a full term. Lungu's second term was from 2016 to 2021 and then he lost to current President Hakainde Hichilema in 2021.
