The Second Session of the Twelfth National Assembly will open on Friday 15th September, 2017.
Acting Clerk of the National Assembly, Cecilia Mbewe has announced the date in a statement issued to ZANIS in Lusaka today.
Mrs. Mbewe says President Edgar Lungu is expected to open the Second Session of the Twelfth National Assembly.
The Acting Clerk of the National Assembly has since advised all Members of Parliament to be in Lusaka by Thursday 14th September 2017.
ALL members without exception, don’t say you were not invited. ALL mps.
Hope the MPs from the Odinga of Zambia`s party wont walk out this time around
The fulls will walk away again. Someone to tell them not to go there.
The greatest Zambian president we have ever had.
Press GREEN if you agree
Thanks

He will be in Rwanda, God forbid.
The coward Lazy Lungu is lucky he has no brave opposition MPs like Julius Sello Malema in National Assembly he would have been looking forward to such an event.
Mr. Incompetent and Cluesless ECL. Oh my. What wasted years!
So lungu will announce that he’ll create 5-MILLION Jobs in the next 1 year. Serious Hog-wash.
i pray that UPND boycott lungu’s speech again.
Parliament has lost it’s mantle & is nothing but a rubber-stamp for a tin-pot dictator. It’s a huge drain on meager state coffers & offers nothing to better the lives of the ordinary citizen.
As a social and political experiment, the opposition MPs need to boycott the opening. It will be in line with their earlier strategy.
I told all PF minions that Hon Scotland was on mission to stop Lungu from keeping HH any longer.
There you have it PF id1ots.
Welcome back my President HH.
I and family are 1000% behind you.
Next let the case in court be heard and all the evidence about Lungu ‘s rigging should be heard in an open court without interference.
Viva UPND and HH. LUNGU WAAWA.
Now that the treason charge has been proven baseless and unfounded, the IG and all those involved in HH arrest must be immediately FIRED by Lungu.
If this is not done, we will know for sure that they were acting under Lungus orders.
And this was only political harassment and intimidation of a Zambian Citizen whose rights are supposed to be defended by Lungu as President.
And he is not fit to be President!
The wakers, what stunt will they pull this time kikiki
We still won’t show up
I am sure UPND MPs will think twice about walking out after they got zero or nothing in allowances on their recent payslip BUT if they walk out on Lazy Lungu tomorrow when their boss is appearing on trumped up charges in court 1 it will be justified.
Lungu is discredited and irrelevant. He is the cockroach that one ignores around the home and plan to finish off at an opportune time. UPND MPs should even attend and not react and debate his speech. Just sit there as if nothing is happening and get your allowances and walk away from the circus. Lungu is totally discredited!
The best thing I will do after learning of a backward negative party’s presence is to go to Copperbelt and campaign hard in all towns and cities. If Copperbelt alone defeats Southern Province in total number of votes that will be it! I will also ensure that we check the register in the South to make sure that no Under Fives are on the register. I will ensure too that we monitor all constituents in the South so that there are no illegal names on the register! These guys must not chase away verifiers like they did last time unless they have something to hide. Mr. President, you have worked hard. You shall be re-elected again!
The mindset these guys have is enough to make you NEVER to vote for them! They are dangerous to the nation! See JJ#3? “Lazy Lungu?” Really? What does this tell you about this Namwala party? See the Nose demon above too! Do you now believe that UPND is a spirit? An evil spirit? Three Mansion! Thank God he will never be allowed to sell Zambia! He benefitted from “Inside Trading” and got away with our assets at a give away or from kickbacks! In other countries “Inside Trading” takes you to jail! I am glad he is there!
Stop using your grandma’s name and face the world like a real macho, you sill y boy.
RETARD
Parliament should set its own calendar and open on its own terms .Lungu shouldn’t be doing this business if we’re to have proper separation of powers with real checks and balances.
Correct! If indeed there is separation of powers, why is the legislature still subject to the executive? This is a serious contradiction and no wonder our democracy is non existent! It only exists in some people’s heads … Kikikiki
@mZAMBIA WA zAMANI
GO back and read just some civic education and try to find out about the difference between parliament and the national assembly. May be, and just may be, your ignorance may get a bit of help. Recommending reading a political science book for you may be way too much for you.
Have the UPND received letters from the stounch speaker of the Parliament now to be part of the Assembly when they appealed? I think they will not attend by law since their appeal is not heard. The people who will be their are PF MPs only.
They have nothing positive to contribute they must stay away.
LOL Sharon is a joker. UPND is dangerous when PF is yet to deliver on
– Re-opening of Mulungushi Textiles
– 1 million jobs promised
– 500,000 jobs promised
– Benefits of increased electricity tariffs by 75%
– Hammer mills
And UPND is dangerous? Anyway we’ll see how many jobs will be promised this time.
PF Parliament!
The Parliament of Edgar Chagwa Lungu … Kikikiki
The most useless Parliament in the history of Zambia. Very unproductive. Only passing funny laws convenient to PF party instead of looking at the national agenda. We hope you can reverse the TSOE thing which has served no purpose. We don’t see the emergency you guys were hallucinating about!
Just looking at the comments by UPNDonkeys, oh God what did Zambia do to deserve such trash? And oh God, God of the Heaven and the Earth, how much longer are you asking us to endure this trash?
…kwekwekwekwekwe…and they never get tired of writing rubbish all the time???
