09 Sep 2021

Zambian voters overwhelmingly rejected incumbent President Lungu and the Patriotic Front. IDCPPA researcher Sishuwa Sishuwa has been interviewed repeatedly (including on NewzRoom Afrika) and (with Nic Cheeseman) has written an insightful analysis of the outcome. Sishuwa (together with other scholars) also spoke at the IDCPPA webinar on 17 August (which can be viewed here).
