Zambian police reported that a former transport minister was killed in a raid at the main opposition leader’s house last week, one day after elections marred by claims of irregularities. The incident raises near-term political stability and rule-of-law risk for Zambia, which can pressure emerging-market risk sentiment and local assets. The lack of resolution around election integrity keeps uncertainty elevated.
