Mr. Sata told journalists yesterday that he regrets any inconvenience his intentions to take over from his father may have caused.

Meanwhile Mr Sata has expressed sadness that mourners at Belvedere Lodge which has been designated as the funeral place were choked with teargas following the confusion which ensued following the removal of Edgar Lungu as PF Secretary General.

Mr.Sata has told Qfm news in an interview that it is unfortunate that such an incident could happen when people are mourning the late President.

He explains that he was confused when he heard the news about some youths who had run amok burning tyres outside the funeral home at Belvedere Lodge last night following the decision by acting president Dr. Guy Scot to drop Mr Lungu.

Mr. Sata who is President Sata’s eldest son has since called on PF members and Zambians as a whole to show respect to the late president as they mourn him.

The Lusaka Mayor has since apologized to the people who were at the funeral house at the time of the fracas for being inconvenience caused by the firing of the teargas by the police in their quest to control the youths.
