00:27I am pleased to inform you and to inform the nation that the security threat to the electoral process has
00:38been contained
00:40and that the necessary measures have been put in place to enable the process to continue.

01:04lifted with immediate effect.
01:06With tensions high over reported violence and arrests, the Commission is urging all stakeholders to remain calm as Zambia awaits
