Zambia’s Ambassador to Belgium Inonge Mbikutsita Lewanika has called on King Albert II of Belgium to use his royal influence to encourage Belgian investors to invest in Zambia.
Speaking shortly after presenting her credentials to the King at the royal palace just outside Brussels, Dr. Mbikutsita Lewanika also told the monarch that Zambia would further appreciate Belgian support for the education of women and children.
Dr Mbikusita Lewanika’s day with the monarch was characterised by equal pomp, an elaborate ceremony where she was escorted from her residence by a royal motorcade.
The Ambassador who was clad in an authentic Lozi royal ‘’Musisi’’ was received at the palace by trumpet sounds with 30 horsemen around the motorcade.
And King Albert thanked Zambia for her hospitality to refugees and its role in the Congo peace process.
The King called on the Ambassador to explain to the Belgians Zambia’s potential.
He said she should share the African experience on women involvement in development and peace process.
He has further called on Zambia not to relent in its pursuit of peace in the Great Lakes Region.
And at her residence in Brussels, the Zambian embassy expressed delight at the ambassador.
Embassy Minister Counsellor, Henry Mbushi said the presentation of credentials would enable Dr. Mbikutsita Lewanika work tirelessly for the Zambian embassy.

Let her try Belgium, here in the US the embassy was not operating well during her administration. Some of the Zambian workers there were too tribalistic and rude. At least in my view and experience with the Zambian embassy.
