President HAKAINDE HICHILEMA will today, June 4, 2026, sign into law the Free Education and Pension bills at State House.

The legislative package is expected to bring significant changes to Zambia's education and pension systems.

President HICHILEMA will assent to five bills: The Education Amendment Bill, 2026; the National Pension Scheme Bill, 2026; the Public Service Pensions Bill, 2026; the Pension Scheme Regulation (Amendment) Bill, 2026; and the Local Authorities Superannuation Bill, 2026.

State House says free education remains one of the flagship policies introduced during the first term of the UPND Government.

State House Chief Communications Specialist CLAYSON HAMASAKA says since the policy was introduced in January 2022, more than 2.6 million children have returned to school.

Mr. HAMASAKA says President HICHILEMA regards education as the best investment and the greatest equaliser.

He says assent to the Education Amendment Bill, 2026, will ensure future generations continue to benefit from free education, just as children are doing today.

In a statement, Mr. HAMASAKA said the pension reforms will deliver immediate and tangible benefits to workers and retirees.

He said the minimum monthly pension will increase from K1,861 to K2,327, with more than 17,000 pensioners set to receive the adjustment immediately.

Mr. HAMASAKA said about 30,000 retirees will be eligible to access an advance lump-sum payment, with some receiving as much as K17,500.

He added that approximately 1.2 million members will benefit from improved growth in their pension savings through NAPSA.

Fellow citizens,

A few days ago, I made it clear that electoral lawlessness will not be tolerated and that all perpetrators, regardless of political affiliation or social standing, would face the full force of the law. That position remains firm and unchanged.

The scenes circulating on social and other media of individuals attempting to prevent the lawful filing of nominations are unacceptable, undemocratic, and a direct violation of the rule of law.

I therefore expect law enforcement agencies to move swiftly and professionally to arrest all those responsible. Zambia is governed by laws, not intimidation, violence, or mob conduct.

Let me be unequivocal: those who wish to test this Government’s resolve to maintain law and order are entirely on their own. The State will act firmly and decisively against all forms of electoral violence and disorder.

Hakainde Hichilema,
President of the Republic of Zambia.
