Luanshya Member of Parliament Simon Kachimba and Opposition Patriotic Front Roan Member of Parliament Chishimba Kambwili have reconciled following a meeting the duo had in the District Administrator’s office.
Mr. Kachimba told ZANIS that he had forgiven his Roan counterpart over the disparaging remarks the latter made about him that he was dull because he hailed from North-Western province.
Mr. Kachimba further appealed to the Lunda people who sued Kambwili in the luanshya magistrate court to withdraw the matter as a gesture of reconciliation.
He said the two Mps agreed to start a new chapter and work together in order to develop Luanshya town as opposed to antagonizing each other.
Mr. Kambwili also said it was true the two had reconciled and pledged to work for the development of the people of Luanshya.
He said the two Members of Parliament were national leaders who were supposed to show exemplary integrity in society, adding that in-fighting would not take them anywhere.
Mr. Kambwili further said he hugged with Mr. Kachimba in the presence of the District Commissioner George Kapu and that the two committed themselves to keep consulting each other on how to develop the town of Launshya. developmental issues.
Mr. Kambwill was recently arrested and charged with conduct likely to cause breach of peace when he raised a Patriotic Front symbol to a peaceful crowd of the Lunda Cultural Association who gathered at Civic Centre where they read a petition to President Rupiah Banda over Kambwili’s remarks against Kachimba and the people of North-western province.
Mr. Kambwili denied the charge and has been appearing in court over the same case.
ZANIS
This is good news. We should be careful as to not cause offence to fellow citizens. We need to foster mutual respect.
Good Boys, now go and campaign for 2011…
Well done! That’s what iz expected of level headed leaderz.
Good show, but Teta will not be happy.
Some positive news from Zambian politicians for a change. Now, get RB to reconcile with intelligent, educated Zambians.
Yes Teta is the issue not Kachimba nor Kambwili he had been like that all along: I remember how he caused confussion in 1975 at Kamitonte national service camp, where he instigeted trible hatred just as he did with Kachimba and Kambwili and provinces : Teta has alot of nonsense in his mind Zambia doesnt need leaders of his caliber
Thats the spirit of brotherhood mwaipona first and then you reconcile good for you dudes
Bloggers you have said it all. Shikapwasha should emulate the spirit of these 2 gentlemen.
This is a great news. Keep it up.
This development is most welcome. It was so sadenig for the 2 men serving the interests of pipo of Luanshya getting at each others throat as though they were from 2 different planets. Leaders should learn to differ in their apporoach to national issues but have the national interest at heart. No tribe or group of pipo are superior or inferior. Its just individuals coz of the way they are brought up. We are all the same except we may have acquired superior knowledge of some sort otherwise before God we are same born thru woman, die and return to the soil. Simple like that. Our leaders should learn to co-exist coz its easier for them to mislead. Whether MMD, PF,UPND,FDD etc. Zambia is collectively our property and should be encouraged to live side by side in mutual respect and peace.God 4us
Good move and I hope the agreement lasts forever.
Be blessed all. _ Matthew 6:33
But seek ye first the Kingdom of God and His righteousness and all shall be added unto you.
tHIS IS WHAT WE NEED AS zAMBIANS LETS DIFFER IN OPRINCIPLE AND NOT COZ ONE IS BEMBA,LUVALE OR CHEWA ITS FOR THIS REASON THAT WE EVEN ADMIRE THE BARACK OBAMA’S OF THIS WORLD.
