Zambia’s Vice-President Inonge Wina is today expected in London, United Kingdom at the invitation of the London School of Economics (LSE) to officiate at the 3rd Annual Africa Summit.

The London School of Economics and Political Science will host its Africa Summit on the Theme:  “Africa within a Global Context: Thinking Beyond Investments” on Saturday 23rd April 2016 at the LSE. This years’ theme will focus on the inventive facets of Africa’s economics and Communities. The theme will explore ways in which African nations can capitalise on opportunities and better address significant challenges when positioned with the rest of the world.

The Vice-President Mrs Wina will deliver a keynote opening address and will aim to address the day’s programme panel discussion by aligning perspectives of how Africa can stay in that global standing, positioning Zambia’s standing with the rest of Africa and its trajectory to sustaining long-term wealth creation.

Panelists will discuss among other themes: inclusive economic management and sustainability; the role of microfinance and Foreign Direct Investment (FDI) as emerging markets in Africa; and new financial structures and fiscal policies steering Africa’s engagement with the global economy,technology and telecommunication sectors, participation of African citizens in local and global economies, governance and social movements, effectively and sustainably power Africa in the age of a global shift away from carbon-based energy sources; power infrastructure to foster industrialisation and economic growth; the role of traditional and renewable energy producers , as well as the role domestic and regional government actors play in the future of the African power sector and how technology may not be a panacea for Africa’s ills.

The Vice-President will also meet various investors as follow up to the Zambia-UK investment forum which she officiated last year in November.

  1. This is what I would do if I was mama inonge Wina. Since the PF government is tightening its belt & taking “austerity measures”, I would ask the ambassador to Zambia in the UK to represent me, saving lots of tax payers’ funds. My thoughts.

    • So does it mean that out of all of Africa 52 countries, these summits and meetings only want our vice president? What about Joyce Mugabe, Mrs Kabila, Mrs Mseveni etc? Awe sure bayenda ba mai aba. Soon after August it will be Chagwa’s turn to travel after winning rigged elections.

    • Its wishful thinking this a woman who is also Minister of National Planning where she has never issued any statements simply being paid allowances for doing nothing. She is simply a tool for Lungu and a token.

  2. Jay Jay, whatever your name is. “Ulekwatako umuchinshi mune” This an innocent old lady who has nevr asked not even a single coin from your father. Leave my mama alone!!!

  3. #Mighty shansha iwe tea car why should she ask from Mr jay jay senior when the imbecile is already stealing from him she is being paid tax payers money of which Mr jj is also a contributor. bulu.yoko.
