Zambia’s former President Edgar Lungu has said that he was practically under house arrest, accusing police of a plot to forcefully detain him for no reason.
Lungu said police were mobilising to arrest him at night from his residence in the capital, Lusaka.
But a presidential spokesperson dismissed the claims, saying that the former leader has never been placed under house arrest.
It comes a few days after the former leader was quoted as saying that there could be a change of government in the country before the 2026 general election.
Lungu announced a comeback to politics last October, prompting the government to withdraw his retirement benefits.
