A year after the passing of former Zambian President Edgar Lungu, his family has emerged victorious in a legal confrontation with the Zambian government regarding the handling of his remains. This ongoing dispute has captured attention as it highlights the tensions surrounding the late president's legacy and the wishes of his family.
