Zambia's economic challenges

We examine Zambia's economic challenges ahead of president-elect Hichilema's inauguration.

We examine Zambia's economic challenges ahead of president-elect Hichilema's inauguration. Anthony Bwalya is spokesman for Mr Hichilema, and discusses the new administration's priorities. And we get analysis from Jonah Buyoya, of Diamond TV Zambia. Also in the programme, we examine the prospects for women under the new Taliban regime in Afghanistan, with Yasmeen Khan, global executive director of EqualityNow, which campaigns to promote and protect the legal rights of women and girls around the world. Plus, the Βι¶ΉΤΌΕΔ's Elizabeth Hotson reports on how whilst it's still only August, many retailers and hospitality venues are already planning ahead for the Christmas season.
