Zambia's ruling party candidate, Edgar Lungu, is headed for victory in this week's presidential election after building what appeared to be an unassailable lead against his closet rival, a local newspaper reported on Friday.
The independently owned Post newspaper said Patriotic Front (PF) candidate Lungu led Hakainde Hichilema by about 33,000 votes with 30,000 votes yet to be counted from just one more constituency.
