BRE congratulates Inonge Wina for retiring

Share

The Barotse Royal Establishment (BRE) has congratulated Vice President Inonge Wina on her retirement from active politics.

In a statement, BRE Prime Minister (Ngambela) Manyando Mukela commended Mrs. Wina for her service to the nation, stating that her leadership was commendable.

“We commend her for the long, honourable service she dutifully rendered to the nation. She performed with honesty and great responsibility,” he said.

Ngambela Mukela said although the BRE would have wanted Mrs. Wina to continue her service to Zambia, it has accepted her reason not to be considered as running mate in the forthcoming elections.

“We wish her God’s blessings, good health and success in her private life,” he said.

Recently, Mr. Wina announced that she has reached a stage in her political journey where she needs to take a different role and allow a new generation of leaders to run the affairs of the country.

The Vice President disclosed that she is now 80 years old and could therefore not summon the same energy as she used to have when she was young.

  2. Congrats , but there was also need to be part
    of the third agenda at all , may God richly bless her
    and family

  3. I don’t know if good faith is accompanying this congratulation. Not long ago she said that retirement from politics was out-of-question for her, adding that she was available as a running mate again. Wht has changed?

  4. I’d have also loved her to continue especially that Zambia is at the crossroads worse than the MCS succession wrangles because an ineligible candidate has insisted on being on the ballot. He’s now so intolerant that he’s even presiding over extrajudicial detentions typical of a one Party State. He’s taken Zambia many generations backwards. Anyway it’ll come to pass. I wish you well

  5. Nemwine – What changed was that after that announcement the old hen Bo Inonge did say she was not going to stand or contest!!
