Zambian Minister Resigns After He Was Caught On Video Receiving Cash Bribes From Chinese Businessmen (Video)

Stanley Kakubo, Zambia’s Foreign Minister has tendered his resignation.
He resigned after he was allegedly caught on video receiving cash bribes from Chinese contractors.
In the 2022 video, the minister had promised to sell rich mineral mines to Chinese businessmen. But he reportedly failed to live up to the terms before the video surfaced online.
The minister said he resigned because he didn’t want his controversy to distract President Hakainde Hichilema’s administration, Lusaka Times reports.
Mr Kakubo, however, vowed, “In due course, we will provide the accurate context surrounding the recent developments.”
The president promptly accepted his resignation while appreciating his commendable contributions and leadership as a minister.
The viral video shows two men sitting by a table counting the neatly stacked cash, both US dollars and Zambian kwacha. Their faces are not visible, but it led to a frenzy of speculation on social media that the men were Mr Kakubo and a Chinese businessman.
This is the second time that Mr Kakubo has found himself at the centre of controversy.
Last year, he was accused of receiving a bribe after he was spotted leaving the office of a Chinese-owned cement company with a briefcase.
He denied any wrongdoing, while the president defended him, saying he had received a calendar and a diary.

PDP Insists On Declaring Seats of 26 Defected Rivers Lawmakers Vacant

The Peoples Democratic Party, PDP has insisted that it wants seats of 26 Rivers House of Assembly lawmakers declared vacant.
The party made the statement on Thursday.
Recall that the lawmakers left the party for the All Progressives Congress, APC.
According to PDP, the lawmakers were no longer members of the state legislature.
PDP National Legal Adviser, Adeyemi Ajibade, SAN, told newsmen shortly after Justice Donatus Okorowo of a Federal High Court, Abuja, adjourned the embattled lawmakers’ suit until Jan. 24, 2024.
Ajibade said though President Bola Tinubu might have waded in the dispute between the Governor Siminalayi Fubara and the FCT Minister, Nyesom Wike, the party stood on what the constitution says on defection.
 
“PDP as a party, we are standing on the side of the constitution of the country.
 
“It is not about issues of an agreement because by the constitution, we all sworn to uphold.
 
“Tye governor himself sworn to uphold the constitution likewise the president.
 
“I am not against the president, calling for the resolution of the matter. He is the chief security officer of this country and he has every right to intervene in the issue.”
According to the senior lawyer, aside from that, the constitution of the country is very clear; Section 109 (1g) is clear as to issues of detection.
He added that the affected lawmakers had not denied that they had not detected.
