Tensions are rising in Zambia after opposition leader Brian Mundubile declared himself the winner of Thursday's presidential election, while the Electoral Commission of Zambia (ECZ) suspended the counting and announcement of results nationwide due to reports of violence and theft of ballot papers. Mundubile expressed concern over delays in the verification and announcement of presidential results, warning that the situation could create opportunities for interference or manipulation. The ECZ has not announced any official presidential results and will review the suspension within 24 hours.
