The opposition United Party for National Development (UPND) says it stands ready to embarrass President Michael Sata to the international community.
UPND Spokesperson Charles Kakoma says if the Patriotic Front government does not stop violating human rights, his party will further engage the African Union and the United Nations.
Mr. Kakoma says the PF government should get used to the opposition holding press conferences in other countries stating that the Johannesburg press conference was just the beginning of more of such to come.
Speaking at a media briefing at the party secretariat this morning, Mr. Kakoma says there is nothing wrong with a political party holding press conferences in foreign countries.
He states that as long as the Patriotic Front government continues to intimidate the opposition, opposition political parties will use any available platform to reach out to the international community in voicing out on the intimidation suffered under the PF rule.
And special advisor to the party president, Douglas Siakalima says there is nothing wrong that the opposition did by speaking out on what is truly happening in the country.
Mr. Siakalima says it is entirely up to President Michael Sata and his government to bring back sanity to the country by ensuring that there is tolerance amongst all political players in the country.
