President Lungu was speaking during the requiem Church Service for Mr. Nkhoma at the Anglican Cathedral of the Holy Cross in Lusaka.
The President who grieved the loss of one of the topmost officer stating that it was a sad moment not only for the family but the people of Zambia as a whole.
The Head of State described the late Mr. Nkhoma as an experienced man who exhibited knowledge and skill in service delivery.

And the widow Jane Nkhoma in a speech read on her behalf by Maureen Ngoma said the late was a determined father, husband, and grandfather who put the needs of others before his.

The late Mr. Nkhoma died after a respiratory failure on Friday, August 7, 2020, and has since been put to rest at Leopards Hill Memorial Park in Lusaka.
Another Lusaka funeral, so disrespectful.
Give these senior citizens dignified traditional funerals.

One can not fail to notice in the midst of the tragedy , lungu and Lusambo holding public gatherings to prove PF popularity, spreading this virus further………he most likely contracted the virus from one of his reporting OP officers who went to work at one of these gatherings
It should have been one of them to die instead of innocent people …..
Samuel Nkhoma was a stinking kamucheka! He was poisoned by Kaizer Zulu over a girl they were both dating!
Samuel Nkhoma was not innocent!
Samuel Nkhoma failed to solve the gassing issue in which more than 50 Zambians died. What kind of kamucheka was he? …

Yet you’re going to open parley on friday.
Why not just say he died of covid-19? We’re all at risk from this virus in the absence of a vaccine. Samuel Nkhoma was ordinary flesh and blood and therefore as susceptible to the virus as all of us.
