  • Summary

  • Zambia's President Hakinde Hichilema has fired the entire board of the country's corruption-busting body after they were accused of corruption, which they deny. The head of the Anti-Corruption Commission (ACC), Thom Shamakamba, resigned from his post and the country's solicitor-general - Marshal Muchende - were accused of taking kickbacks which they strongly deny the allegations. The whistleblower, O’Brien Kaaba - who was once a board member of the ACC says the same "immunity deals" under the former governing party, the Patriotic Front, were now being "used under the current government in a manner that shows no commitment to fighting corruption. He says the ACC must be reformed, alleging that the rot goes beyond the four fired board members and affects the whole institution.
