Southern Province Minister Dr Edify Hamukale publicly declared that he is circumcised making him, as he called it, ‘bad news’ in bed.

Hamukale, who said his decision to be circumcised is in line with government policy of employing preventive and control measures of disease such as HIV and cervical cancer, revealed that he is now leading a clean and good life from the time he got circumcised.

Speaking when he addressed the media at his office Thursday morning, Hamukale called on the male folk to get circumcised in accordance with government’s policy of employing preventive measures towards disease control.

He disclosed that circumcision has a number of benefits especially in preventing diseases like HIV and cervical cancer in women.

The Southern Province Minister urged young men not to shun circumcision advising that all the misconceptions about it should be thrown away as the country has excellent experts who correctly carry out the procedure.

Hamukale added that it is government’s desire to have healthy Zambians by investing in preventive measures like male circumcision which he says minimizes chances of contracting the disease.

“I wish to publicly declare that I am circumcised. Well, it looks very clean and looks very nice and Iam bad news.He..he..he..he..he…well its real,” Hamukale said amid cheers and claps from journalists.

The Minister encouraged young people to go for circumcision.

“So I am just here to urge boys and girls not to shun male circumcision due to a number of fears because in this country we have excellent professionals in our theatres in the various hospitals both private and public owned that are experts in carrying out male circumcision.”

“They shouldn’t shun this exercise because it protects our women from being found in conditions of cervical cancer and minimize chances of acquiring HIV”, he said.

  1. Go and preach the same to European countries. The people who are telling you to get cut , themselves they say no to it….why don,t they get circumcised? Please excuse me , am not a blind follower of european propaganda.

    The same people they told you not to breast-feed and you followed without thinking….today its opposite, you are told to breast-feed. Very dull creatures of the black gene indeed…creatures which do not want to research and come up with concrete solutions to their problems but they would rather buy in whatever a white fellow tells them…very disgusting indeed.

    • Just how does circumcision prevents HIV infection? Can someone here provide a scientific and plausible explanation as to how a skinless head of a penis prevents or stops AIDS viruses from entering the urethra if you sleep with an HIV infected person?

    • I agree with you #1 Truth Hates. These Africans are very dull. If a Muzungu says eat your feaces, they’ll do it. They don’t know that circumcision was introduced to them to reduce their population. They don’t know anything about Agenda 21. Very illiterate.

  2. Circumcision has NOTHING to do with HIV bwana. Please research further and you shall discover that these Viruses and many more including the dreaded HIV are MAN MADE in secrete Laboratories in the western world and is all about money. Huge Pharmaceutical companies today and supported by their respective Governments are raking in Trillions of Dollars from “sick” poor Governments all over the world including Zambia.

    All we need to do quickly is to get organised medically and find a solution to save our young from such viruses. We should STOP eating certain imported foods like those “smelly Hungarian sausages”. Why dont your so-called expatriates shun such foods? Its because they know that these foods are POISONS. If God the almighty didn’t want me to have my fore-skin, he could have…

    • nkala pansi iwe.. circumcision has been practised in Africa from time imemorial. Its even in the bible from old testament times. SIT DOWN!

    • Chileshe Mulenga naiwe you believe God spoke to only the Israelites in a world so big? He couldnt speak to the Japanese? He couldnt speak to the Baganda? He only spoke to the Israelites. Nilesa wakapatulula?

  3. Circumcision for HIV prevention is harmful, biased and tragic

    OPINION
    The claim that adult male circumcision significantly reduces the risk of men acquiring HIV is refuted by many professionals, writes Ronald Goldman.
    Circumcision is harmful.
    Circumcision removes a natural, healthy, functioning body part comprising about one-third of the erogenous tissue on the penile shaft, about 74 sq.cm. Studies show that foreskin protects the penile head, enhances sexual pleasure, and facilitates intercourse. Cutting it off removes many thousands of specialised nerves and results in thickening and progressive desensitisation of the outer layer of the penile head, particularly in older men. A survey showed that circumcised men were 4.5 times more likely to use an…

  4.

  6. Before one comes to public life they must make sure that they come with “clean hands”. Don’t come to people and say that you are a leader when you are a child molester and incest filled rapist. The man was appointed to his position with due checks being carried out by the appointing authority at best. Worst case scenario is that such information was available and ignored or used as a “feather in his cap”.

  7. The Campaign only encourages men to have un protected sex with the view that they cant contract HIV. It is highly misleading. The ultimate solution are condoms for singles and sticking to one sexual partner for married couples.

    • Lombe, What does Agenda 21 have to do with being circumcised. Hamukale is a lie like his boss. remove HIV in that sentence and you will attract my attention.

  8. To serve, protect and lead by example are qualities of high office. The quality and persona of peers representing the needs of many says a lot about where we are and heading as a nation.

  9. Guys we have to come together to fix Zambia. Everything is broken. Imagine this is a minister of a country with over 15m people and with over 50+ years of self rule. We have to do some soul searching and acknowledge that we have screwed up and so we must start everything from the very beginning. Look at LT, only full of political news feeding hatred and prejudice. Many people just comment anyhow, they do not even see how we are affected and connected. Mind you most countries in Africa have scary levels of corruption, ignorance and illiteracy among citizens. Most people would rather die than think.

  10. CIRCUMCISION DOES NOT PREVENT HIV TRANSMISSION. IT ONLY REDUCES THE CHANCES OF TRANSMISSION BY ABOUT 30% TO 60%. THIS IS BASED ON STUDIES CONDUCTED IN UGANDA, KENYA AND SOUTH AFRICA. BEFORE CIRCUMCISION, THE HEAD OF THE PENIS (OR PREPUCE) AND THE GROOVE BEHIND IT IS LINED BY A SOFT, MOIST EPITHELIUM WHICH IS PRONE TO BRUISING DURING INTERCOURSE AND THIS FACILITATES HIV TRANSMISSION. BUT AFTER CIRCUMCISION THIS AREA GETS EXPOSED AND STARTS DRYING UP. AND THE EPITHELIUM LINING IT CHANGES TO TRATIFIED SQUAMOUS KERATINIZED EPITHELIUM. THIS THIS EPITHELIUM IS TOUGH AND CANNOT EASILY BE PENETRATED BY THE HIV.

  11. Too much information minister, very soon all young boys will believe you and this HIV will never cease to attack Zambia. Please act responsibly and leave health promotion to the experts…. Iam not happy. I am passionate about good and evidence based health promotion. Stick to your trade , sir.

  12. in this age the focus of many health experts is waging a war against the primitive practices that come with genital mutilation. The minister should be building to that debate and help eliminate bad sexual practices not boasting so loudly about it. Majority of women are forcefully subjected to the yanking of the jewel and itts wrong. Do yourself a favor and contribute to the debate positively’Too bad you lost a valuable piece of your organ, i feel sorry for you sir.Indeed you are a bad man literally.

  13. This is the only place I have seen a Tonga call another Tonga “dull!” Is it not so HaLombe? What has changed? Some matrix? Under Five’s blind followers!

  14. “CLIP’..and a shower of blood follows, and much agony i hear! At an older age like the minister, it does not heal well so that the remaining part the Ministers member, is actually contorted , deformed and subject to perpertual agonizing pain as well as all manner of infections because of failure to heal properly.He is probably seeing more pain meds and antibiotics than MS P.Uzzy cat! His announcement is a cry for help! He may need another surgery and remove the remaining stick to alleviate pain. reach out to Kaitlin Jenner for guidance!
