President Edgar Lungu has described the late Prince Philip, the Duke of Edinburgh and husband of Queen Elizabeth as a Patriot, Global Youth Ambassador and Royalty that believed in unbridled service to humanity.
President Lungu said Prince Philip touched many lives around the world through his remarkable service to humanity through various sectors.
The Head of State said this in his message of condolence to Queen Elizabeth on the death of her husband Prince Philip.
Prince Philip died April 9, 2021 at the age of 99.
In a press statement issued to the media in Lusaka yesterday by President Lungu’s Special Assistant for Press and Public Relations Isaac Chipampe, the Head of State said he learnt with deep sadness the death of Prince Philip.
He said Zambia joins the United Kingdom, the Commonwealth and rest of the world in eulogising an outstanding person who assisted the British Monarch in its service to humanity.
The President said Prince Philip inspired many lives around the world through his involvement and service in the environment, industry, sport and education among others.
President Lungu noted that Prince Philip contributed to his country’s security when he served in the British Army as a youth.
He said Zambia will remember the late Duke of Edinburgh for championing the cause of young people around the world and his penchant and support for nature through the World Wide Fund for Nature.
“It is my belief that his memory will live on through the values he shared in the various organisations he led. Your majesty, please accept our heartfelt condolences and prayers” said President Lungu.
He did his best considering he married into the royal family. We have enjoyed cordial relationships with the royals and continue to do so. So when our friends mourn in UK we mourn with them. Please note when I say uk or British, I mean the indigenous British and not you evil upnd diasporans who have forced yourselves on other man’s land and are a drain or leech on tax payers there. I will now await your barrage of f00lish comments. RIP

On my way to buy more alcohol. Pf convention things
Kekekeke, Ba Edgar thinks he is somebody queen Elizabeth can know.
Slave mentality…..and yet Zambians are dying with hunger every day….useless President……
If you have a leader who stands for nothing he will fall for anything…Lazy Lungu is a typical example very clueless ..I feel sorry people who write these statements at State House.
@Nostradamus, (VERY TRUE) Kekekeke, Ba Edgar thinks he is somebody queen Elizabeth can know.
Europe and Western Europe don’t give a F*** about Africa, they’re dealing with Africa for Economic gains.
That means they can’t compete with Africa on an even basis but only with manipulation like in Congo -Zaire.
Agony is sitting in a flat in England during lockdown and imagining you are some silly official in Lusaka buying gifts for PF cadres.
@6, lol. That’s funny.
I am certain Tarino and impostor Kaizar are one and the same people.
KZ is a corrupt PF diasporan living in the UK. He has fled the country, scared of what is going to happen on August 13! And he is right, I would be scared too!
Anybody thinks Queen Elizabeth would be waiting on getting comfort from a Zambian hyena called Lungu? Don’t think so!
Chiza Chirwa – You are probably new to this site…please don’t insult my intelligence, there was a time during MMD era when I could juggle between two aliases with different Gravatar images but its not easy and its very time consuming ….I just dont have time anymore and you have to be very fooooolish to pick someone like K-Z who has zero brains and zero concentration span as a blogger given that man is rarely active on social media.
Whatever the case any person who has helped other people in any capacity deserves respect and more so after they die. MHRIP
Sincerest condolences to Her Majesty the Queen and the great people of the UK.
If you want to see how evil looks like that photo is a typical example, Diana and the oppressed are waiting to ask this wretch some serious questions …and if you want see what incest is its between these two; Prince Philip of Greece and Denmark with Queen Elizabeth….Both Philip and Queen Elizabeth II are great-great-grandchildren of Queen Victoria, Elizabeth by descent from Victoria’s eldest son, King Edward VII, and Philip by descent from Victoria’s second daughter, Princess Alice. Both are also descended from King Christian IX of Denmark.
Queen and Prince Philip went to open the Commonwealth Heads of Government Meeting in Nigeria. It was the Queen’s first visit in 47 years. Greeted by Nigeria’s then-President, Olusegun Obasanjo, who was wearing traditional robes, Philip quipped: “You look like you’re ready for bed.”
This is the type of individual you Africans are mourning for …who only saw you as spear chucking monkeys.
Wake up from docility.
RIP DMX
Some cadres are the most confused of them all …they are young but will support Museveni winning the elections after more than 30 years in govt and they will mourn the death of some racist pig.
Tarino I can see you are growing some hair on your tiny testicles. However, you are still a pu55y who is scared to engage me in debate. We know that is how you are suffering there abroad. Only a f00l like you can come up with some theory of me being based in uk. Yes I have houses in uk but that is not a place I would settle. Even if pf lost I wok stay here in my country. I have nothing to hide or run away from. Unlike you cowards who failed in your own country and are now a burden on other countries. Fuk off
The most classic adage regarding trolling is, “DONT FEED 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.
Tarino we can tell how old you are by your comment stating RIp to a thug and drug dealer like dmx. You are a very young f00lish boy. You need some slaps

Actually I have to agree with you KZ. Prince Phillip was fhe patron of many charities which helped poor people immensely, even educating thousanda over the years.
DMX was a drug addict and father over 10 childrwn without even supporting them with his money which he had already squanders on drugs, cars and a fake expensive life.
Tarino on this one your argument is baseless and biased towards your own unsubstantiated hate for the British royals.
2020vision – You know nothing about Philip and if you think giving you back crumbs from what his family stole from your ancestors is something to be grateful about then you have issues. You have absolutely nothing in common with the imperialists family you know nothing about your history or of self hence you address them as royal when you are more royal than them but you don’t know it as you are so brainwashed with stupidity.
I bet you dont even know what DMX stands for…how does him being a drug addict affect you life
Tarino what are you doing in the imperialists country if you despise them that much? You are a useless f00l. Sometimes it’s best to keep quiet than show your f00lishness to the entire world
And dmx has served and helped Africa through his drug use? You motherfaka. Grow up
