Colón’s d£ath was announced by his father and former coach, Richard Colón, in a Facebook post on Thursday. “Good morning my people. I regret to inform you of the passing of my son Prichard from this earthly world, now he is in a better world. “I did everything possible to fulfil his wish, his dream of bringing him on vacation to Puerto Rico as much as he desired but couldn’t. “Thank you for so many years of love and prayers.

POLLS OPEN IN ZAMBIA’S GENERAL ELECTION WITH LARGE VOTER TURNOUT. (PHOTO)


 Polls open in Zambia’s general election with large voter turnout


Voting opened at 6 am on Thursday in Zambia’s general election, with a strong turnout and a peaceful atmosphere.


Fourteen presidential candidates, including incumbent President Hakainde Hichilema, are vying for the country's top job for the next five years.


Hichilema is seeking a second term, having swept to victory in 2021 by securing more than 2.8 million votes to defeat then-President Edgar Lungu.


Hichilema’s challenger


The president's main challenger in a field of 13 other hopefuls is Brian Mundubile, a 55-year-old former minister in the Patriotic Front (PF) government that ruled from 2011 to 2021.


Backed by an alliance of opposition parties, Mundubile entered the race in May and is running under the newly formed NRPUP party, which draws much of its political base from the PF.


Voters will also be electing new members of parliament, city mayors, municipal council chairpersons and ward councillors.


The winning presidential candidate is required to secure 50% plus one of the total votes cast, with the nation's electoral commission indicating that the victor could tentatively be known by Monday.
