DEPUTY Minister of Lands Michael Mabenga has been discharged from Milpark Hospital in South Africa where he was admitted.
Minister of Foreign Affairs Kabinga Pande confirmed Mr Mabenga’s discharge in Lusaka yesterday.
Mr Pande said Mr Mabenga is in good shape and was discharged yesterday.
Mr Mabenga was recently admitted to Milpark Hospital where he underwent a surgery to clear a blocked aorta, which affected blood flow to his right leg.
Meanwhile, MMD national secretary Richard Kachingwe says the body of MMD Nangoma parliamentary candidate Luke Kanyomeka arrived in Lusaka from Namibia yesterday afternoon.
Major Kachingwe said the body was received by Professor Kanyomeka’s family. He will be put to rest in his village in Nangoma.
Major Kachingwe described Prof Kanyomeka as an invaluable asset to the MMD, adding that his death has come at a critical time.
Prof Kanyomeka died in the early hours of last Friday in Namibia where he was working. He was one of the 148 MMD parliamentary candidates adopted to stand on the ruling party ticket.

Wasting taxpayers money on treatment in south africa for these useless bafoons.
Everytime Milpark sees one more of these jokers at their door, they laugh.
Access to good health care is not a privilege, it is a right denied to Zambians. this same reporter writing this isht cant even afford a good hospital when he catches an STD
zambian @#.1, remember that your leader, the saddist Sata and his wife, were saved from oblivion by the same Govt system that extended this health facility to Mr. Mabenga. This time around PF bloggers must demonstrate a humanistic approach to the plight of all Zambian citizens. Apparently, do not close the window of good will when Sata himself is on standby for evacuation to a better health institution at any time. To Mr. Mabenga: we say May God’s Hand be on you and GET WELL SOON. Zambia needs you.
Why does Banda claim that Zambia has an excellent health service? When all the  wealthy go abroad for treatment. That is to say Zambia lacks in competent Surgeons and doctors. Bad news for the general public. This year they will start to change all that at the polling stations. Donchi kubeba
These are not leaders they are cheap dirty bags One day South Africa will be like Congo because Nigerians have corrupted South Africa these dirty bags with no heart for poor people in their country will be flown to London just like some of them died in Paris
Makes me laugh when the pull him down Brigade bragg about Zambia developing.Â
He just went to organise the rigging of the ballot papers
Thank God.
It Is good to know he has got better.
He should have died there so that we make money out of his funeral as we did kuli ka Tito.
Great, Mabenga is out of Milpark Hospital to create bed space for Sata, because believe me, Sata will be going there soon, his patched heart will give up when Zambians reject him for the 4th and last time.Â
#3 DS Malama,
Wheather it is Rupiah Banda (knee checkup) or Mabenga or Sata evacuated to SA the point is, it is morally wrong for the leadership to avail themselves good medical services outside the country at our expense while the majority of the poor are suffering and dying of preventable illnesses.
Please dont waste our money with STIs
Yabaa Iam disapointed.
@3 everything is politics cant you just for once be reasonable.what has pf got to do with sending this buffon to S.A?aholes like you make me sick.mukofu obe
