Clergy condemns political violence during nominations

Battle Cry for Zambia has strongly condemned the acts of violence among political players and their supporters in the ongoing Electoral Commission of Zambia (ECZ) electoral nominations ahead of 2026 general elections slated for 13th August 2026.

Organisation Founder Obrian Mayambu told the media in an interview in Solwezi District that the acts of violence being witnessed should be condemned by all well-meaning Zambians.

He stated that it is sad that people are using violence to intimidate other political players describing it as unfortunate.

 “Violence is detrimental to a developing Christian Nation like Zambia and we need to join hands and condemn such acts if we are to have a peaceful country,” he said.

Apostle Mayambu has urged youths to desist from being used as tools of political violence adding that they are the future leaders who should promote peace and unity.

He has further called on Zambians to pray for the country to be protected from any acts of violence which can affect the peace and unity it has been enjoying.

“Our forefathers sacrificed a lot for Zambia to attain its political freedom, let us not let their efforts go to waste by engaging in acts of violence,” the Clergy said.
