Zambia Police Command has redeployed 800 traffic police officers to general duties in an effort to curb the perceived corruption in the department.
On November 2, this year, the Minister of Home Affairs Stephen Kampyongo directed the police command to implement regular rotation and transfer of officers from general duties to the traffic section and vice versa.
Mr Kampyongo said the move would avoid a situation where officers overstay in one position.
