Constitutional Lawyer, Makebi Zulu, has called for the immediate repealing of the Cyber Security and Cyber Crimes Act, stating that the legislation infringes on the privacy of Zambians.
Mr. Zulu argued that the Act, in its current form, broadly seeks to invade citizens’ privacy under the guise of national security.
He said this when he featured on Christian Voices’ Chatback program on the topic, Cyber Security and Cyber crimes act.
“The uproar from various stakeholders, including the Law Association of Zambia, is clear evidence that the consultative process during the formulation of this law was not adequately followed,” said Mr. Zulu.
He said that failure ton repeal the act will be detrimental to the privacy Zambians are accorded on the cyber space.
