Stephen Sackur talks to newsmakers and personalities from across the globe. Stephen speaks to Zambian opposition leader Hakainde Hichilema.

But that cherished status has been jeopardised recently with the country witnessing a disputed election, political violence, a state of emergency and the imprisonment of Zambian opposition leader, Hakainde Hichilema. He was freed in August 20161, but still refuses to accept the legitimacy of 2016's election. Is he destabilising Zambia?
