It looks like Edgar Lungu and his wife Esther had a tense moment when they thought their home had been raided while they were at court. Edgar Lungu advised Esther to stay calm and not react impulsively, comparing her emotional reaction to that of a hyena, which he used to suggest she should avoid being overly aggressive or emotional.
Later, the Drug Enforcement Commission (DEC) clarified the situation, stating that there was no raid on their home. Instead, DEC officers had visited the residence of Tasila Lungu, a relative, to serve a call-out for her to appear for questioning. The DEC also emphasized that their actions were conducted professionally and in accordance with the law.
In summary, the incident seems to have been a misunderstanding or miscommunication, with the DEC providing a detailed explanation to refute claims of a raid.
