Zambia's Banda set to stand for re-election
2011-03-26
But I think we all saw this coming...
[The Nation (Nairobi)] Zambian President Rupiah Banda on Friday formally declared his re-election bid in polls due later this year, when he will seek his first full term at the ballot box.

Banda won a special presidential election in 2008 to complete the term of the late Levy Mwanawasa, who died while in office. Zambia's regular national elections are scheduled for later this year.

Banda filed papers Friday to declare his candidacy.
