LUSAKA, Feb. 6 (Xinhua) -- The Zambian government on Tuesday denied media reports that it intends to consider research on witchcraft as a science.
Chief Government Spokesperson Kampamba Mulenga said such reports were blatant falsehoods.
"We are aware that there is a group of people that is spreading malicious statements through various media platforms, bent on destroying government's image," she said in a statement.
According to her, the government could not start advocating for witchcraft practices as the country was a declared a Christian nation.
Christianity and witchcraft are poles apart and can not co-exist, she added. Enditem
