263

Fred M’membe, the leader of the Socialist Party, has praised the repeal of the rule against slandering the president.

The repeal of this law, according to Dr. M’membe, is long overdue.

According to him, there has been an increasing global campaign to decriminalize defamation over the past three decades.

According to Dr. M’membe, the public order act must be promptly repealed along with the defamation legislation.
