Brother Morgan Muunda Chawama upnd aspiring candidate serving as Guest of Honour at St. Paul's UCZ in Misisi Compound, commended church leaders for organizing a fundraising event to provide benches for God's house. He conveyed greetings from President Hakainde Hichilema, who specifically sent well wishes to the Misisi community.

Addressing the congregation, Brother Muunda highlighted concerns that many local youths are not fully benefiting from government empowerment programs such as the Constituency Development Fund (CDF), due to administrative barriers. He urged leaders to improve access to these crucial opportunities, particularly employment within key national institutions like the Army and Zambia National Service (ZNS).

He also called on the Ministry of Community Development to ensure elders in the church are registered for the Social Cash Transfer program, so they receive the support due to them.

In a show of commitment and faith, Brother Muunda pledged:
• 20 new benches, valued at K70,000, to enhance worship comfort.
• Bundles of Salaula to support women’s fellowship and outreach.
• A vehicle dedicated to church operations and community service.

Morgan Muunda emphasized these pledges are acts of faith and dedication to both the growth of St. Paul's UCZ and the well-being of the Misisi community, encouraging continued unity and accountability among all.

July 26,2025

Mfuwe Socialist Party parliamentary candidate Charles Mubanga has applauded President Hakainde Hichilema for fostering peace during the ongoing by-election campaigns in Mfuwe Constituency.

Mr Mubanga made the remarks after attending an induction service at Mpumba United Church of Zambia Congregation in Lavushimanda District this morning.

He said he was happy that Zambia has returned to an era of political decency and unity.

Mr Mubanga noted that past elections were often marred by violence and bloodshed, but under the current leadership, political players are campaigning in peaceful environments.

“I would want to thank President Hichilema for restoring peace and unity in this country, unlike it was in the past where elections were characterized by bloodshed now we political players are very peaceful and we campaign in a violent-free atmosphere,” he said.

He further urged government to remain committed to promoting peace, love and unity across the nation.

The Socialist Party candidate said peaceful elections are a hallmark of a mature democracy and must be embraced by all political stakeholders.

He commended the people of Mfuwe for embracing peace and urged them to maintain the same spirit before, during and after the election.

Mr MUBANGA has since cautioned other opposition political parties not to bring violent behavior in Mfuwe constituency.
