Central Province Minister Sydney Mushanga has said the declaration of Zambia as a Christian nation and the creation of the Ministry of National Guidance and Religious Affairs are bearing fruits in the country.
Mr. Mushanga said these have resulted in sanity and collaboration between the church and government.
He has noted that the actualisation of Zambia as a Christian nation by creating a Ministry in Charge of Religious Affairs was strengthened by President Lungu’s declaration of an annual day of prayer and fasting.
The minister said this is because the Ministry of National Guidance and Religious Affairs is effectively carrying out its mandate of fostering both social and spiritual guidance to the nation.
Mr. Mushanga was speaking last evening at Ebenezer Pentecostal Church fundraising dinner in Kabwe.
He said like other churches, the Ebenezer Pentecostal church in Kabwe has been collaborating well with government in providing social services to local communities, especially the needy in society regardless of social or political backgrounds.
Mr. Mushanga recalled that Ebenezer Pentecostal church in Kabwe, through the Men’s Fellowship, donated garbage bins to Kabwe Municipal Council in 2016 for distribution around the town centre to enhance cleanliness and prevent possible disease outbreaks.
He added that the church has often times visited inmates at Mukobeko Maximum Prison with various foodstuffs and other items in line with biblical principles of praying and providing services for the needy.
The Central Province Minister thanked the Ebenezer Pentecostal church and urged its leadership to continue with the good spirit of extending a helping hand and working in partnership with government.
Mr. Mushanga donated K5, 000 during the fundraising dinner whose target was to raise K100, 000 for procuring musical instruments.
And guest speaker from Ndola Ebenezer Pentecostal church in the Copperbelt Province, Donald Chilambo, urged the leadership of Ebenezer Pentecostal church in Kabwe to work hard and leave an indelible mark for future generations to remember them.
At total of K60, 000 was raised in cash and pledges.
And the fruit is Masuku! As in kudyelela ma Zambians Masuku pa mitu!
We are playing with GOD and should stop this HYPOCRISY. Lord Almighty PUNISH THESE THIEVES WITH NO MORALS who live and rule in the Fake Lords Name. Current Leadership should not even have Guts to Talk about Christianity or have a Ministry of Religious Affairs. They are jokers and Big Liars. ZAMBIA IS NOT A CHRISTAIN Nation: True Christians don’t hate each other and They don’t steal nor Watch others suffer.
One can cheat himself that he has seen a miracle. Zambia is not doing any better than her neighbours except perhaps Kabila country where there is always turmoil
At least zodwa cannot be allowed in Zambia, and magician bushiri cannot steal from zambians
Instead of Bushiri we have “anointed one”, instead of Zodwa we have Dora.
Where is the effing difference?
Ba Sidney Mushanga, Christians do not steal from they people they swore to protect. Christians do not steal from unemployed people, widows and orphans by wanting a cut from the little money they get from rentals. Christians do not over tax their people. Christians do not give away land that belong to their people to foreigners and displace their own people. If you are not guilty of the above then you are a real Christian. You failed priests have a psychological problem. You have cheated us enough. Christians also do not persecute others because they do not agree with their policies.
What folly!!
I thought Lungu said the opposite only a couple of days ago, when he lamented the worsening alcohol abuse and moral decay in the nation
Lungu was referring to Cabinet members only?
Imposing Christianity on the nation is not democratic. It is being in the same boat as the Islamic states that prosecute Christians. Religious freedom is a fundamental human right. Besides, we as a nation are not champions of morality.
he is sayin the declaration of zambia as christian nation is bearing fruit…. i thought just yesterday Chagwa lungu said he was shocked with zambians who have a terrible drinking culture?
which is which?
He is dreaming like those who saw the rainbow one day in Lusaka and believed their prayers had been heard
As long as Zambia has DULL cheerleader ministers like Mushanga (Gwaii), Zambia will always remain some underdeveloped pit latrine backwater nation that dreams of Nuclear power, when Pit Latrines is the order of the day I’m their Central business district.
P.F. IS A STONE AGE PARTY, DREAMING OF THE NUCLEAR AGE.
this is what u get for being a gest of honor at a function u er not used to!! you dont even know what to say, now u end up contradicting the master!! Moral decay is the result mushanga is talking abt!!
