Chief government spokesperson, Kennedy Sakeni says he is disappointed with former President, Rupiah Banda’s continued unwarranted attacks against government.
Mr. Sakeni says that Mr. Banda has continued attacking government through his lawyer Robert Amsterdam over the on-going investigations for his alleged wrongdoing while in office.
This is contained in a Press statement availed to Breeze News.
Mr Sakeni, who is also Information and Broadcasting Services minister, says it is very clear that Mr Banda has chosen to play politics on very serious allegations of wrongdoing that he is facing as the statements he is issuing through his lawyer clearly demonstrate this fact.
Mr Sakeni says as a responsible government that respects the rule of law, government would like Mr Banda to receive adequate facilities through the established channels of the due process of the law in defending himself.
Mr Sakeni has warned Mr Banda, to desist from defending his case through the media by issuing disparaging statements against the on-going investigative process.
He says should Mr Banda continue with this practice, government will be left with no choice but to make public what he has described as very embarrassing details of Mr. Banda’s wrongdoing which the investigators have uncovered.
Government disappointed with former President, Rupiah Banda’s continued attacks.
