The opposition Forum for Development and Democracy says President Michael Sata should hold a live press briefing to end all the speculation about his health and whereabouts.
FDD spokesperson Antonio Mwanza said photo shopping pictures about the President will not help anybody in any way.
An attempt by State House to release still pictures of President Sata seems to have further fuelled to the speculation.
Below is the full statement:

FDD PRESS STATEMENT
(For immediate release)
SATA IS BEING IRRESPONSIBLE-HE SHOULD STOP PLAYING KABISHA-BISHA
Sata’s continued game of Hide and Seek is highest level of irresponsibility and a lack of courtesy and concern for his nation. With all these rumours and speculation about him, the only responsible thing for him to do is to hold a LIVE national address to assure the nation that all is well and that the nation is not on auto pilot. Photo shopping on facebook shows the lack of seriousness on his part as leader of the nation.
Mind you his continued game of Hide and Seek has economic bearing on the nation as it usurps investor confidence. Moreover, there are URGENT constitutional functions like swearing in of the Attorney General and The Solicitor General that Sata has FAILED to perform.
I think this comedy is now going out of hand. Sata has to realise that he is incharge of a nation and its people therfore he has to provide leadership and STOP this now you see me now you don’t game. As head of State in charge of the lives of all Zambians, it is totally unacceptable for him to be playing kabisha-bisha
