Governance Expert, Political Analyst and Human Rights Defender Ngande Mwananjiti said the United Party for National Development (UPND) and President Hakainde Hichilema (HH) have made remarkable strides in the fight against corruption in Zambia.
He explained that the recent forfeiture of Tasila Lungu’s farm in Sinda District is a testament to the unwavering commitment of our government to ensure transparency and accountability in the management of national resources. 
Mr mwananjiti poined out that the Economic and Financial Crimes Court’s ruling to seize the farm, valued at over ZMW 8.8 million, due to unexplained wealth, underscores the effectiveness of our anti-corruption measures.
,’’This significant victory sends a clear message that no individual, regardless of their status or connections, is above the law.We applaud President HH and the UPND administration for their dedication to rooting out corruption and promoting good governance,’’ he said.
He added that the enactment of the Access to Information Act and the establishment of the Inter-Agency Coordination Framework have been instrumental in enhancing transparency and accountability.
,’’The UPND’s efforts to strengthen the Anti-Corruption Commission and ensure that the benefits of honesty outweigh the costs of corruption are commendable,’’ he notes.
Mr mwananjiti also These initiatives have not only restored public trust in governance institutions but have also redirected public funds towards economic development and the betterment of the Zambian people.
Mwananjiti also says the forfeiture of Tasila Lungu’s farm is a step in the right direction, and we will continue to pursue asset recovery and accountability with unwavering resolve.
,’’To this end, we acknowledge that the fight against corruption is a roller coaster. As we know the law is neutral and does not select. The fight against corruption must not spare anyone, now or in the past. President HH is committed to ensure that no stone is left unturned.
Together, we can build a Zambia free from corruption, where integrity and transparency are the cornerstones of our society.
Ends.
