Hakainde Hichilema returns as Zambia’s president following disputed vote

Hakainde Hichilema has been sworn in for a second term as Zambia’s president following his victory in disputed elections. His main rival, Brian Mundubile, is in detention, accused of treason, as allegations of vote rigging persist. Hichilema pledged to govern with equality and received support from international leaders during the inauguration ceremony. Zambian authorities have arrested several opposition figures who questioned the election results.
