POLICE, ECZ INTENSIFY VOTER AWARENESS CAMPAIGN IN LUSAKA

By Police News Reporter

The Zambia Police Service Nkwazi Theatre Club, in conjunction with the Electoral Commission of Zambia (ECZ), has intensified its voter awareness campaign across Lusaka Province as the country counts down to the General Elections slated for 13th August 2026.

The campaign is targeting some of Lusaka's most densely populated compounds, where the Zambia Police Service Nkwazi Theatre Club and the Electoral Commission of Zambia are equipping citizens with the knowledge they need to participate in the electoral process responsibly while promoting peaceful, free and fair elections.

Through drama, music, poetry and interactive community skits, the team is delivering key messages on the importance of voting, civic responsibility and electoral laws. Members of the public are also being sensitised on electoral-related offences and encouraged to refrain from acts of violence, intimidation, hate speech and other criminal activities that have the potential to undermine the democratic process.

The campaign also seeks to assure members of the public of the Zambia Police Service's commitment to maintaining law and order and providing adequate security before, during and after the elections. Citizens are further being encouraged to cooperate with law enforcement agencies by reporting incidents of violence and other unlawful acts to help ensure a peaceful electoral environment.

So far, the campaign has reached Jack Compound, Chawama and the surrounding areas, where performances have attracted large crowds of residents, traders and commuters. Community members have actively engaged with officers from the Zambia Police Service and officials from the Electoral Commission of Zambia, receiving vital information on their rights, responsibilities and the importance of participating peacefully in the electoral process.

The Zambia Police Service and the Electoral Commission of Zambia remain committed to ensuring that every eligible citizen has access to accurate electoral information, appreciates the importance of peaceful participation and is empowered to exercise their constitutional right to vote in a safe, secure and orderly environment.
