  1. Well done and good luck Sir. Surely well deserved after so many years of dedicated service.

    Lusaka will benefit from your knowledge.

  2. Who is George Nyendwa and apart from being councillor for 10 years what does he bring to the City of Lusaka? I hope he has a vision to turn Lusaka into a metropolis comparable to other world standards

  3. Returning officer Alex Mwansa announced the election of Councilor Nyendwa this morning after the elections

    Wouldn’t it have been great to tell us how many councillors contested this election? Did he go through unopposed?

  4. we have to start working for our people now?
    what does that mean?
    all this time he was working for more money for his own pockets……
