United Party for
National Development (UPND) leader Hakainde Hichilema says his Members of
Parliament could have reconsidered their decision to move the impeachment
motion against President Edgar Lungu if the dialogue process was brought up
immediately after the 2016 elections.
He says the motion is
not meant to distort the dialogue process, but an effort to restore human
rights, liberties and freedoms in the country.
Mr.
Hichilema says the motion has been taken to parliament due to what he describes
as lack of leadership in the country.
Mr. Hichilema is of the
view that the impeachment motion will bring out specific breaches of the constitution
by government.
He says President Edgar
Lungu should stop complaining about the motion because it is legal, and provided
for in the constitution.
The motion comes up for
debate in parliament today.
