President Edgar Lungu and Former Roan Member of Parliament Chishimba Kambwili have reconciled.

The bitter political rivals announced their reconciliation during the Church Service marking the 5th Anniversary of the Passing of late Republic President Michael Sata.

St Ignitious Catholic Priest Father Charles Chilinda called the two to the front and asked them to put aside their differences and reconcile for the sake of the Patriotic Front and the founding President of the Patriotic Front.

The two were seen shaking hands in front of the congregation in the presence of the former first lady Dr Christine Kaseba which the congregants are hoping will bring an end to the bitter rivalry.

President Edgar Lungu said he had nothing against the National Democratic Congress President.

And Mr Kambwili also said he has nothing against the Republican President.

The Church Service was attended by the late President’s family led by Dr Christine Kaseba, President Edgar Lungu, Cabinet Minister, PF Members, opposition Leaders and members of the Public.

And President Lungu said to honour the late President’s memory, he urged his members to do their part to make Zambia great, beautiful and prosperous.

He said Zambians should feed the nation through hard work, innovation and determination to overcome the challenges.

President Lungu said five years have passed since President Satas death but his courage of conviction still drives the PFs development agenda.

He said his ideas of what Zambia could become in the lifetime still gives the PF a sense of mission.

    • This is just politics of the belly we want Lungu to decisively deal with the violence perpetuated by PF the armed thugs and criminals masquerading as cadres.
      Word of caution to kambwili look at GBM now!

    • Reconciliating to what?
      – So now Lungu is no longer a P0mpwe?
      – He’s not umwine wa chisushi (owner of the fart)?
      – Findlay is no longer using Lungu for his drug dealings?
      – PF is no longer destroying the economy?
      – PF is no longer corrupt?
      Please tell us the meaning of this reconciliation.

    • “Sharon” just tell the truth…your time in diplomatic circles will end. The rest of us can not rid ourselves of this curse of PF soon enough!

    • Go back prodigal son.
      Face the likes of Miles and others in 2026.
      That will be a decade of intrigue, suspense, insults, Jealousy and forgiveness.

  1. What is this reconciliation about? Has Kambwili reconciled himself to ECL’s economic mismanagement; political violence and grand corruption?

  2. PF is the safest place for Doc. Kambwili. He stands a better chance of becoming president of the republic in 2026 on the PF ticket.
    Come back home, Mr. Prodigal Son!

  3. Politicians are like bananas -they hang together ,they change colour and there’s not a straight one among them.Trust these two “friends” at your own risk.

  4. Sounds like a good project, but when you remember PF promises “..more money in your pockets..”, I am deflated.

    He says that $5bn is available, so why hasn’t the project started? Hope it’s not one of those juicy PF promises like the one above. But I have always wondered politicians have to tell lies even when it is not necessary, and the truth would fix the problem. Legacy I suppose.

  5. Kambwili is a thief just like anybody else in PF. He is just bitter because he is not eating with them. This is the man who would defend aggressively anything stup1d that PF did when he was part of them. Remember how he demeaned and insulted the people Southern and Western Provinces in run up to the 2016 general elections. Some of us knew Kambwili when he was struggling with tuntemba businesses before PF got into government and how he suddenly changed overnight to become very rich. Kambwili does not speak for the masses, he speaks himself. He is a selfish man. If this man was still in government he will have been shouting on top of his voice that everything wrong in this country is because of climate change, including over borrowing. Trust this man at you ownr peril.

  6. Reconciliation is a good thing, but the motive behind this, is what I want to see… From the look of things, the president doesn’t trust short neck…

  7. Wat a shame there is no problem to reconcile, but wen reconciliation is based on showing people to gain political gain then thats a problem as the case is now, u cant be fooling people like that people of Zambia are not docile they know that its not about real reconciliation but fake commedy. u are just wasting our time with your drama politics we are praying and God never slumber u will be removed and u wont even know how u be removed from power. God is not happy at all wait until u see how things will start to unfold.

  8. As Alangizi Ba Chitukuko we need to see people coming together and put a smile to each other politics aside. We only have one Zambia and we are one people created by one God therefore, “The aftermath of non violence is reconciliation, and the aftermath of violence are emptiness and bitterness.

  9. Reconciliation is a good thing to do, coming together is a sign of love, peace, unity and care. There is no limitation to unity for the fact that His Excellency Edgar Chagwa Lungu and Chishimba Kambwili have reconciled , this actually shows that the Government of the day is a Government of understanding and reconciliation between parties .

  10. Hope CK has learned a lesson this time. Remember the election are about to start . U are the tool who is like to be used again and left in cold air. Iam sorry if u haven’t learnt a lesson. Bye
