Fellow citizens.
In the interest of promoting hardwork and unity in the country, today, we attended the Lwanza Traditional Ceremony of the Tonga, Lundwe and ila people of Senior Chief Hamusonde of Bweengwa in Monze District, Southern Zambia.
We are delighted to see traditional leaders from across the country interacting with each other at these occasions. This unity in diversity is what we wanted to see.
Our position is clear: We are not in competition with our traditional leaders, we are complimentary in delivering development.
We are one Zambia! One Nation! One People and therefore let’s embrace the various cultures and traditions existing in our country.
May God bless all our traditional leaders and may God bless our country.
Hakainde Hichilema
President of the Republic of Zambia.
