Zambia’s Ambassador-designate to the U.S, Dr. Ngosa Simbyakula has arrived in the United States of America following his recent appointment by President Edgar Lungu. Dr. Simbyakula who arrived Wednesday morning was received by Charge’ D’Affaires Mr. Joseph Chilaizya and other embassy staff at Dulles International Airport in Washington D.C.
The newly appointed Zambia’s envoy to the U.S straight went to meet staff at the Embassy where he urged diplomats to work hard and ensure economic diplomacy takes center stage so that Zambia gets maximum benefit from the U.S economy.
Dr. Simbyakula who is former Justice Minister says he has always embraced teamwork to achieve desired results and set goals.
He told the diplomats that Zambians are highly expectant to see that the mission in Washington D.C fosters bilateral ties with the American government and its people.
Dr. Simbyakula who is later this month expected to present credentials to U.S President Donald Trump was also introduced at the African Union Mission to the USA where African Union Commission Chairperson Moussa Faki Mahamat addressed a meeting of African Ambassadors Group (AAG) and African ministers of Foreign Affairs.
Mr. Mahamat also arrived Wednesday morning in America to attend the 2017 AU-US High-Level Dialogue with Department of State on matters relating to peace, security, and development of the African continent.
Welcome.
When presenting credentials, may you discuss the “elephant trophy” issue please?
Congratulations. We are confident you’ll certainly carry out your duties diligently. You’re well equipped for the position and may the Lord guide your decisions. God bless
I have no respect for this guy, he overslept and forgot that he was suppose to file in him nomination papers, he lost his parliamentary seat before votes were cast, and you you expect him to represent Zambia good, trump must hear this.
You’re too late, even the previous one couldn’t handle us the real in DISAPORAL. Your BOY Lungu is not fit to be President, that’s not Mr Sata’s vision for the country he loved so much.
Who is HE in three words?
Thanks

More like PF Ambassador to the USA. This guy is a failed lawyer who was once the National Chairperson for PF. I hope he gets to learn a thing or two in the usa. Such as a free press and freedom of expression
@1.you forgot that credentials in usa are not represented to the president but state dept, in this case,Rex Tillerson. LT does mislead readers.Ivory issue its upto zambians to enact policies on endangered species.
Diplomacy at its best, Dr SImbyakula just has good credentials and such jobs are just well for him and I’m sure he will do his best. Congrats bwana!

Poor captions on the pictures. there are more than one persons in those pictures but only one is mentioned without stating whether that person is left, right center, etc. So how can one know who Dr Simbyakula is from those pictures?
Welcome to Lusaka Times.
This is the man PF must consider to field in 2021 for the position of Republican President.
