The European Union (EU) has appointed renowned trade specialist and advisor, Trevor Simumba as Senior Expert on Trade attached to the African Union (AU) Headquarters based in Addis Ababa.

Mr Simumba who was until now Chairperson for Finance and Economics in the opposition Movement for Democratic Change (MDC) led by Former Finance Minister Felix Mutati will now be based in Addis Ababa.

In his new role, Mr Simumba will interact with various Governments across the African Continent on issues surrounding commerce, trade and industry.

He joins other Zambians in Addis Ababa flying the Zambian flag high at the Continental body such as Amb. Albert Muchanga who was recently elected Commissioner for Economic Development, Trade, Industry and Mining at the 38th Ordinary Session of the AU.

Mr Simumba has since tendered in his resignation and best wishes to the MDC leader Felix Mutati and the entire MDC membership as he takes up his new role in Addis Ababa.

This is according to a statement released by the MDC Media Team

  1. Congratulations. A product of zambian education flying the flag even higher. Meanwhile we have f00lish upnd diasporans who think only being educated abroad counts as good education and yet they are busy cleaning toilets and polishing rich peoples shoes. What an abomination

  2. Indeed congratulations are in order. What KZ’s remarks towards the diasporans mean? Nobody knows. Not even KZ. For some reason he thinks that everybody reading LT is a upnd diasporan. NOT. Not upnd, not diasporan. But not PFake either! Because we HATE corruption, KZ! You can learn something from that. And that not so clever boss of yours. Yes, I mean the president. Who won’t be president beyond August 12 of course…….

  3. Trevor Maliwanda Simumba. A big congratulations to you.

    Keep on climbing the ladder. There is nothing that can stop you from doing anything in life.

    All it requires is having the Desire, Discipline, Dedication and Determination.

    UPND should have used you wisely but then again you are from Mbala/Northern Province.

  4. We can’t comment on opposition, they will arrest us.
    Trevor boyi, go impregnate those Ethiopians, they so soft!!!

  5. Really laughable…if some blogger was genuine he would know who Trevor is and his strong views on PF economic mismanagement and recklessness.

  7. He should put out the fires at home 1st to extinguish the raging economic firestorms PF has put Zambia into.

  8. Tarino if you thought with your brain rather than your tribe or political affiliation, then you would understand that then pf party is open to constructive criticism. Why should we hate a zambian who has done well for himself. What we are against are sad and angry tribalists like you who criticie the government all day but cannot even offer a single solution. You are a mere useless cadre. Me I address you directly because I don’t beat about the Bush. Arr you scared of me that you use indirect ways to refer to me? Be a man.

  11. Trevor well deserved appointment. Very good documented progression and exposure you are gaining in Africa from the time you left UK. Good moves mate!

  12. The most classic adage regarding trolling is, “Don’t feed the trolls.” Trolls seek out emotional responses and find provocation amusing, so replying to them or attempting to debate them will only make them troll more. By ignoring a troll completely, they will likely become frustrated and go somewhere else on the internet.

    You should try your best not to take anything trolls say seriously. No matter how poorly they behave, remember these people spend countless unproductive hours trying to make people mad. They’re not worth your time of day

  15. Trevor Simumba should stay home to make Zambia great again. PF has ruined all the economic milestones Rupiah Banda achieved.
