Four priorities for Zambia after the 2021 elections (The Conversation)

August 08, 2021


The Conversation published an op-ed by senior research fellow, Danielle Resnick on the upcoming elections in Zambia. Resnick writes, “Whoever wins Zambia’s 2021 general elections will face two key challenges: reviving the country’s democratic credentials and stimulating the economy. To achieve this, the new administration must have at least four priorities. These are regaining credibility with the international financiers, fighting corruption, curtailing the dominance of the executive branch of government, and ending the reign of terror by political party vigilantes, known as ‘cadres.’” Republished in Investing.com (South Africa), Beijing BulletinMENAFNBig News Network,  Foreign Affairs (New Zealand), This Is AfricaDown to Earth (India), The Toys Matrix (Canada), Newsbreak.comAfrican Eye ReportFlipboardAll Africa
