Paramount Chief Mpezeni of the Ngoni speaking people of Eastern Province has warned against any form of politics at this year’s Ncwala traditional ceremony.

Chief Mpezeni said all people regardless of their political affiliations and different backgrounds will be treated as delegates at the inaugural traditional ceremony.

ZANIS reports that Inkhosi Mpezeni said this in a message read on his behalf by the Ngoni Royal Establishment Spokesperson George Zulu during a fundraising walk in Lusaka yesterday.

Meanwhile, Chief Mpezeni has sent a message of condolences to the families of the 51 victims who died in a road accident at John Chinena area along the Great North Road in Chibombo district.

Chief Mpezeni has since appealed to all the delegates travelling to the inaugural Ncwala traditional ceremony to observe all traffic rules and regulations.

President Michael Sata is expected to grace this year’s Ncwala ceremony which will be held on the 23rd of February at Mtenguleni Park in Chipata.

Other notable delegates expected to attend this year’s ceremony include South African President Jacob Zuma, Malawi’s Joyce Banda, Mozambique’s Armando Guebuza, members of the diplomatic corps and other senior government officials.

  1. Inkosi vuto nimwemweka. Muliye nzelu zomanga mabanja pamozi. Lelo mweleka kuwelawela ku state house nichinji? Mwe ndiye mwenze nambala wanu kunyoza a Rupiah na mangani banu. Lelo tikumvwa kuti a Mangani obafuna lini ayawo a mu PF. Nga mwewo vili tyani?

  2. Imwe a George, nanga ni SADC conference or ncwala? How do you invite all these Heads Of State and ask the Local man to grace the ceremony? Usasebela kwati mwapepa fyaka yachingoni yayi.
    A yanu mwebapasa viipa lomba okanga kuyenda ochita ngati nkhuku ili pamazira!

  3. Hambane mu ngoni, tukuza…. koma muka kobele nkhunzi ikulene, yo kwana osati tu nkawi yayi….. tufuna tikalye chilopa mokwana na amdala basu a Sata..

  4. Mpezeni brings politics to himself. he should not blame people when he himself is the first man to be seen at state house to go a lobby for positions of his relatives to be in the PF government. We all know why George Kanyamula Zulu is the PS for and Charles Madoda Zulu is a deputy Minister and has kept religious silence not to antagonize PF which gives him food on the table. we do respect Nkosi Ya Makoosi but sometimes he goes out of the traditional norms of what is expected of a leader of his caliber. He should learn to keep quite as a leader not eating even where he did not sow

  5. “Chief Mpezeni has since appealed to all the delegates travelling to the inaugural Ncwala traditional ceremony to observe all traffic rules and regulations”.

    Do the people at ZANIS know the meaning of “inaugural”. Munzinkhalako serious, sha!

  6. Mr Zulu, you are the one misleading the Inkosi yama Nkosi, thats all I have to say. We are watching you very closely. You Zulu you are an opportunist. You have no love for the Ngoni people. You have made us ngonis beggars. We are watching you!
