The Post has asked for consent from State House to broadcast on Zambia National Broadcasting Corporation (ZNBC) television part of President Levy Mwanawasa's speech in Mpika last week. Responding to State House principal private secretary Jack Kalala's press release of November 20, 2003 that President Mwanawasa's speech in Mpika was misrepresented by the newspaper, Post editor-in-chief Fred M'membe said the newspaper found no distortion in reporting that President Mwanawasa had said it would take four years to defend the 2001 presidential election petition case currently before the Supreme Court.
