THE UPND should stop using surrogates in trying to hound Director of Public Prosecutions (DPP), Lillian Siyuni out of office, PF aspiring president Emmanuel Mwamba has said.
Mr Mwamba said that it was evident that the ruling party was using surrogates to try to hound Ms Siyuni out of her office.
Mr Mwamba said that it was clear that these were well tailored schemes by surrogates to frustrate Ms Siyuni.
“These are schemes by surrogates of the UPND that have been used to report Ms Siyuni to the Judicial Complaints Commission (JCC) over a court matter which is very malicious. Government should not use surrogates to hound the DPP out of office,” he said.
He said that the move to report the DPP to the JCC was malicious and was aimed at undermining the office bearer.
Mr Mwamba said Ms Siyuni enjoyed security of tenure.
He said he had seen similar schemes in the past were independent minded persons were hounded out of office only because they exercised their constitution mandate with a sense of independence and pursuit of justice.
Mr Mwamba said it was for this reason that this scheme needed to be repelled with the contempt it deserved because it was detrimental to the justice system.
