Kavindele Proposes 7-Year Term

Former Vice President Enoch Kavindele has proposed a single, non-renewable seven-year presidential term in Zambia, arguing it would spur faster development and prevent complacency. He also suggested allowing presidents to appoint ministers from outside Parliament to widen the talent pool. Meanwhile, ex-minister William Harrington urged limiting MPs to two terms to create space for youth leadership. Both made their submissions to the Technical Committee on Constitutional Amendment.
