The Red Tag

TODAY ON THE REDTAGMEDIA PODCAST

Today, we examine the major political and development stories shaping Zambia:

1. Iris Kaingu alleges that President Hakainde Hichilema offered her a government appointment and a position on the UPND campaign team if she withdrew from the Mwandi Constituency parliamentary race. Why did she reject the alleged offer, and what does this controversy mean for the Mwandi election?

2. Does the Tonse Alliance/PF have any original ideas to offer the Zambian people? We examine whether the opposition is presenting a clear alternative vision or simply attempting to revive the politics of the past.

3. The Livingstone–Kazungula Dual Carriageway is finally set to become a reality. We discuss how this important infrastructure project could improve trade, tourism, road safety and regional economic connectivity.

4. Brian Mundubile and the Tonse Alliance promise to govern in the style of the late President Edgar Lungu. Does this signal the possible return of political cadreism, intimidation and the governance practices associated with the former PF administration?

Plus many more KWENYU’S—the political stories, statements and developments everyone is talking about.
