LUSAKA – Vice-President Mutale Nalumango has arrived at Parliament Buildings, describing herself as prepared “thoughtfully and sound” to take part in the deliberations and voting on the Constitution of Zambia (Amendment) Bill No. 7 of 2025.
In a statement on her official Facebook page, the Vice-President stated that the moment represents a critical step in shaping the nation’s future. “… and I stand ready to fulfil my constitutional duty with integrity and commitment,” she wrote.
She further emphasized a collective effort, stating, “Together with my colleagues, I will ensure that the voices of our people are reflected in the decisions we make today.”
The Bill, which seeks to increase the participation of women, youth, and persons with disabilities in decision-making, among other provisions, is scheduled to be tabled before Parliament this morning for debate, determination, and a possible vote.
Bill 7 should have contained a clause to remove the cermonial office of Vice President. We removed deputy ministers and saved resources. Vice President duties can be performed by any senior minister. If you ask me what value i get from this office, theliz no, And i dont hate her. She is a good person but her office is totally unnecessary – my view. Let me hear your view without prejudice or bias.

Vice Presidency Office is an important position that will NOT allow a vacuum to linger around because human beings are lead by a physical being and NOT a vacuum. Nasosa mkwai. Ene, ni ne Collins. The only true Collins still missing my father, Kapwexi. My email attached
