This morning, President Hakainde Hichilema signed the Book of Condolences for President Jimmy Carter, the 39th President of the United States, marking a solemn moment of reflection for Zambia and its people.
On behalf of the nation, President Hichilema extended heartfelt condolences to the Carter family and the American people, honoring President Carter as an extraordinary leader whose legacy resonates across the globe.
“We remember President Carter’s remarkable legacy, marked by his unwavering commitment to peace, democracy, good governance, human rights, justice, and equality,” President Hichilema stated.
During his presidency from 1977 to 1981, President Carter formed a strong bond with Zambia, particularly during the country’s critical period of transition. His influence extended beyond his time in office. In 1991, the Jimmy Carter Center played a pivotal role in Zambia’s historic return to multi-party democracy, ensuring a credible electoral process that paved the way for democratic governance. The Center’s ongoing support to civil society organizations in Zambia reflects President Carter’s enduring impact.
“As we mourn the loss of this remarkable leader, we take comfort in knowing that his legacy will live on forever. May President Jimmy Carter’s soul rest in eternal peace, and may his remarkable life serve as an inspiration to us all,” President Hichilema concluded.
President Carter’s legacy as a champion of human rights, peace, and democracy is remembered not only in the United States but also in nations like Zambia, where his work left an indelible mark. His passing is mourned deeply by those who have been touched by his vision for a more just and equitable world.
President Carter’s remarkable life continues to inspire hope and unity, ensuring that his contributions to humanity will never be forgotten.
“remarkable legacy, marked by his unwavering commitment to peace, democracy, good governance, human rights, justice, and equality,” President Hichilema stated.”
Yet do we practice or even try to emulate these qualities
I’m not so sure
He has to over verbalize for the masters in Washington to take good note when he turns up later with the begging bowl.
Are those words used when an ex African president dies?
Imwe naimwe……….
If you don’t have anything to say……..

Jimmy Carter could not survive the Washington politics because he was too honest for this kind of trade. To add to his misery the Shah was toppled during his tenure with a number of Americans kidnapped by Islamic revolutionary gangs. It was a difficult time especially with the failure of his rescue plans dubbed Operation Desert Storm.
He was very principled, a virtue that is not a qualification for political life.
Eh…eh
So you know a bit of current affairs , badala…??
I thought you only get your information from the disgruntled PF unemployed cader

#spaka. Please don’t think whoever is critical to your party is a PF whatever you call them. For your information we don’t hate HH, we are just disappointed with what he’s turned out to be. Being a leader of an NGO that flights for justice and good governance I hurt because we had put in a lot of efforts to change government and to change for better but only jump into a fire.
Again for your information I met Mr Carter when he came for our elections in 1991
Again for your information I wanted to visit Carter but he was not available the time I went to Georgia.
Mmmmm…….
Even when HH was in opposition, you were a main hater , right here on LT…….
Working for an NGO , as you claim, you are an unbelievable tribally biased individual who paints tongas with one brush, according to previous announcements by you right here in LT………
Repent , comrade, and the world will be a much happier place
