Zambie : Le Président Hichilema contraint d'interrompre son discours sous une pluie de pierres
Zambian President Hakainde Hichilema had to abruptly interrupt a speech and leave the premises after being targeted by stones thrown by a group of angry young protesters.
The incident took place on the afternoon of November 8, 2025 in a market in the capital, while the President was addressing the public, denouncing in particular bad governance.
The young people, visibly frustrated, accused the head of state of failing to keep his campaign promises . This anger escalated into violence, forcing the President to abandon his speech. He was quickly escorted away by his aide-de-camp and security agents.
This event highlights growing popular discontent in Zambia and raises questions about the country's political stability. While such reactions often lead to harsh repression in other African countries, the situation in Zambia illustrates a rise in citizen frustration with the administration.
This incident is a strong signal that underlines the major challenges facing President Hichilema and his government, and recalls the imperative of transparent and responsible governance to meet the pressing expectations of the population.
