Zimbabwean President Emmerson Mnangangwa has concluded his one day working visit to Zambia and has since left for his home country.

President Mnangagwa who arrived in Zambia this morning at Kenneth Kaunda International Airport (KKIA), took time to lay wreaths at the Mausoleum opposite Cabinet offices where three late Heads of State have been put to rest.

Mr. Mnangagwa also held private talks with President Edgar Lungu at State House and later paid a courtesy call on the First Republican President Kenneth Kaunda.

Meanwhile, Foreign Affairs Minister, Joseph Malanji has described the working visit for the Zimbabwean Head of State as successful.

Mr. Malanji told journalists shortly after Mr. Mnangagwa’s departure that the visiting Head of State had had a successful engagement with the President Edgar Lungu where issues of bilateral trade and security among others were discussed.

Meanwhile, the Minister explained that the Zimbabwean President came for a consultative meeting and by protocol he could not be accorded a 21 gun salute.

Mr. Malanji stated that government is now looking forward to Mr. Mnangagwa state visit to Zambia.

  1. Gwa is important to have as the end of your name if you want Presidency is Southern Africa particularly former Rhodesia. Cha gwa and Mnanga gwa cannot be coincident.

    By inference and Induction, Hakai nde with struggle to be President in former Rhodesia.

  2. Your Excellency President Emmerson Mnangagwa, Thank you for the courtesy call, we now eagerly look forward to host you on a state visit.
    Hak.ainde ulelolesha? I hope this means additional proof of the many numerous words and acts of wisdom which have been given to you many times before but fallen on deaf ears. We can give you a chance in 2036, we are just waiting for you to suffer another four defeats to gauge whether you will mature to become President of our grand children.

  3. Ba LT you have not told us the purpose of the visit, what important things were discussed, what benefits if any his visit brought to the country / people of Zambia. Merely reporting that the visit was successful visit is not enough and does not make sense

    • @Kay,
      In Zambia, there are no News Reporters, but only News Writers. A reporter questions and makes sure what he presents to his audience makes sense, and of high quality. A writer, just presents what has been dictated to him, whether it makes sense or not.

  4. It’s not our problem that u can’t READ and UNDERSTAND.
    The article says they held private talks.
    What more do u want?

  5. If only Africa’s draconian presidents could learn, at least from these photos of former President Kaunda, that there is life and dignity past State House; and, in which event, how few of them would have to wait for rubber bullets to drive them out of their coveted presidencies!

    • He was also forced out of state house.Remember the havoc he used to cause afterwards,forced Mudokotwane out of unip presidency as he wanted to come back….etc

  6. Mwanawasa did not struggle but his name does not end with gwa! Go and think again, this time without alcohol in your brain!
