Thank you for celebrating with us on this auspicious occasion. Now the real work of building our country begins.
Mrs. Mutinta Hichilema, First Lady of the Republic of Zambia.
I serve as a Master Guide in the Seventh Day Adventist Church. In this role, I disciple young church members in the faith, so that they may continue to uphold Christian values. Wishing you a blessed Sunday.
Thank you Zambia 🇿🇲
You believed in our message of change to move Zambia forward. Together, as Zambians, we can successfully work towards the restoration of our country.
Do not repay anyone evil for evil. Be careful to do what is right in the eyes of everyone. If it is possible, as far as it depends on you, live at peace with everyone. Romans 12:17-18. Wishing you a Happy Sabbath.

It saddens me deeply that sexual violence and harassment against women is on the rise in Zambia. It is every woman's right to freely move around the country without fear or anxiety.
Congratulations Princess Kasune Zulu on your appointment as Zambia's first female Deputy Government Chief Whip. Wishing you success in your new assignment.
Arrived last night in the Land of a Thousand Hills,

I wish you all a happy festive season, full of love, peace and joy. As we mark this season's festivities with family and friends let us be considerate of one another by celebrating responsibly. Merry Christmas from my family to yours. May God bless you all.
The future is female! What a powerful image of the immediate former Vice President and the current Vice President of Zambia. It’s truly an inspiration to women and girls in Zambia and shows what educating a girl-child can achieve. When you educate a girl, you empower the nation.
Thank you everyone for taking the time to wish me a happy birthday. I am honoured to have received such loving, warm and beautiful messages. I appreciate all of you. God bless you always.
The Lord directs the steps of the godly. He delights in every detail of their lives. Though they stumble, they will never fall, for the Lord holds them by the hand. Psalm 37:23-24. Wishing you a Happy Sabbath and blessed weekend.
What counts in life is not the mere fact that we have lived. It is what difference we have made to the lives of others that will determine the significance of the life we lead - Mandela.
We attended the State Funeral of late Excellency Rupiah Bwezani Banda, a loving, husband, father and great statesman. From the glowing tributes, it was evident that he touched the lives of many. He has left an indelible mark & will be fondly remembered for his patriotism. MHSRIP.
My warmest congratulations, Hon. Chushi Kasanda on your well deserved appointment as Minister of Information and Media. I wish you success in your new post.
Happy Birthday to my wonderful loving husband. Thank you for being a loving father to our children and a true leader to so many. As you mark your birthday on the campaign trail, "May the Lord bless and watch over you, smile on you, be gracious to you and look on you with favor."
This morning, we celebrated mass with our Catholic sisters and brothers. We were blessed with a beautiful homily by His Grace, Emeritus Archbishop Telesphore Mpundu.
First Lady Esther Lungu, thank you for the congratulatory messages and best wishes.
For your dedicated service as First Lady of Zambia, we thank you. I wish you all the best and God's blessings as you embark on this next chapter of your life.

Pleased to learn that 43 maternity wings have been built, with 26 more to be completed before end of 2023. Every health center having a maternity annex & running water means lower maternal mortality rates & easier access to affordable healthcare, especially in rural areas. 🇿🇲
Love never gives up, never loses faith, is always hopeful, and endures through every circumstance. 1 Corinthians 13:7. Happy Sabbath and blessed weekend to you all.

On the occasion of the 57th Independence Anniversary commemoration, I attended the Investiture Ceremony for national honour and awards held at State House.
This morning we toured the mighty Victoria Falls, Kazungula Bridge, and saw the Big 5 at Mukuni Safaris. Zambia has beautiful landscapes most of which remain unexplored. Let's become tourism ambassadors and showcase what our beautiful country has to offer.

This morning we visited the Lusaka Central Female Correctional Center, and encouraged the women to remain hopeful. We will be making regular visits to correctional facilities to render moral and material support. We are hopeful that conditions will continue to improve.
With all that we have been through, I pray for peace and an end to our traumatic circumstances. Nature tells us that the sun will shine after the storm. We are in your hands O'Lord.
Glad to be visiting our neighbour, the United Republic of Tanzania, at the invitation of Her Excellency President Samia Suluhu Hassan.

We are so pleased that every health facility across
#Zambia
will now have a maternity ward with access to clean water supply and sanitation. This is a welcome move as expectant mothers in rural areas will no longer have to walk long distances to access healthcare.

Today's lunch is featuring some mashed kandolo, gravy, grilled veggies and Bally's favourite steak. He specifically asked for kandolo because he wants what the people are having.
