  1. The former Gambian Dictator Yahya Jammeh is being hosted by President Mbasogo of E. GUINEA so Lungu will take some time to confer with him and take some lessons from him. Lungu might just make a request for Assaylum should things go wrong in Zambia. Like all Dictators Lungu needs advice from fellow Dictators like Jammeh and Mbasogo in case he needs Assaylum from President Mbasogo in the near future.
