MUUNDA DECLARES HIS MISSION BIGGER THAN PARLIAMENT AS HE UNLEASHES UNPRECEDENTED WAVES OF GIVING IN CHAWAMA

In displaying influence, generosity and political momentum, prominent Chawama businessman and aspiring Member of Parliament Morgan Muunda stormed the 3rd Anniversary celebration of Lives Changing Ministries International Church with a cascade of donations and development pledges that left congregants in awe.

The atmosphere was electrified as Muunda supported nearly every arm of the church’s mission. He delivered a staggering K10,000 anniversary contribution, added K2,000 for farming seeds in line with President Hakainde Hichilema’s agriculture driven community empowerment agenda, and committed an impressive K35,000 to help the church close in on its K70,000 target for music equipment.

Demonstrating leadership by example, Muunda further reinforced the spirit of giving by blessing the church’s prophet and his wife with K5,000 in appreciation of their work in a constituency grappling with various social challenges. He encouraged an even greater public celebration of faith by urging church leaders to organize a Jesus Christ march past for the entire Chawama community.

The youth choir also found themselves lifted by Muunda’s generosity as he rewarded their ‘angelic’ ministration with K2,000 and added another K3,000 to facilitate refreshments for congregants.

The giving spree did not end with cash. Muunda extended his support through essential supplies, pledging 50kg of rice, 50 chickens, 20 cases of drinks, and 50kg of sugar to bolster the church’s welfare program this festive season.

Then came the biggest moment of the day, Muunda urged the church to secure land and vowed to build a permanent worship centre another bold step in his expanding development blueprint. He also announced plans to modernize Chawama markets and strengthen the partnership between community churches and civic leadership.

In a fiery challenge, he dared the sitting Member of Parliament to match his development efforts, particularly in drilling boreholes to secure clean water for residents.

And in a thunderous declaration of purpose, Muunda made it clear that his ambitions transcend a single political term, emphasizing that he is only seeking to serve as a parliamentarian for five years before moving on to serve the nation in an even greater capacity insisting that leadership must revolve.

Minister Nkandu Regrets Food Poisoning Incident Affecting Chipolopolo

Sports Minister Elvis Nkandu has described as regrettable the suspected food poisoning incident that affected members of the National Football Team during their trip to South Africa.

Speaking in an interview with ZNBC News, Mr. Nkandu said he is awaiting a comprehensive report from the Football Association of Zambia (FAZ) to establish the full circumstances surrounding the incident.

He emphasized, however, that the setback should not be used as an excuse for the team’s defeat in the friendly match.

Mr. Nkandu urged the Chipolopolo to take all friendly fixtures seriously, stressing that such encounters are vital for Zambia’s global football rankings. He further acknowledged that the recent loss has negatively impacted the country’s standing in international football.

And FAZ President Keith Mweemba says the Chipolopolo's 3-1 loss to South Africa does not reflect the team's potential.

Mweemba says a lot of factors could have led to the team's poor performance but that they will bounce back against Angola.

Addressing the team after the game, he said friendly games are a platform for the team to work together, adding that they will work towards getting better as they prepare for the 2025 Africa Cup of Nations -AFCON- tournament.

Mweemba says the team is still work in progress but that they must work on consolidating a lot of areas.

STATEMENT ON THE ATTACK ON THE PATRIOTIC FRONT SECRETARIAT BY UPND CADRES

Issued by: Celestin M Mukandila
Tonse Alliance National Youth Chairman/Patriotic Front Member of Central Committee
15th November, 2025

I condemn, in the strongest terms, the violent attack on the Patriotic Front Secretariat allegedly carried out by UPND cadres. Such conduct is unacceptable in a democracy and poses a direct threat to peace, order, and the safety of our citizens.

I call upon the Zambia Police Service to take immediate and meaningful action, including effecting arrests and ensuring that all those involved are brought to justice. The nation is fully aware of the public statements that preceded these attacks, and law enforcement must act without fear or favour.

This violence is not only an attack on the PF but an attack on the Zambian people’s right to political participation, safety, and freedom of association. As a party, the Patriotic Front remains committed to peace, democracy, and issue-based politics. In line with our ongoing rebranding agenda, I was honoured to be appointed by the late Former President Dr. Edgar C. Lungu as National Youth Chairman to promote a new era of responsible and mature political engagement.

However, let it be clearly understood: our commitment to peace should never be mistaken for weakness. We will defend our members and our democratic space using lawful, constitutional means. We expect the ruling party to exercise restraint, respect citizens’ rights, and uphold the safety of every Zambian under their charge.

I further call upon the police to take decisive action regarding today’s events, including investigating the roles of the Lusaka Province UPND Chairman Mr. Obvious Mwaliteta and the Bweengwa Member of Parliament Mr. Kasautu Muchelo, so that the law may take its full course because they are recently on record issuing statements that incite violent.

Violence has no place in our country. Zambia is bigger than any political party, and those in leadership must never take the Zambian people for granted.
