Vindictive churches worry Munkombwe

Southern Province Minister Daniel Munkombwe has said government was worried about some churches that were vindictive in pursuing certain individuals instead of promoting unity and forgiveness.

Speaking when a delegation of Livingstone based clergymen called on him at his office to welcome him in the province, Mr. Munkombwe said it was important for the church and government to work together towards national development.

He said the church played an important role in advocating for the establishment of the National Constitutional Conference (NCC) but wondered why it has been reluctant to sit on the NCC.

Mr. Munkombwe said the Church should always wish government success in its activities and programmes.

”We want this peace which has prevailed to continue. Therefore as a church, you should never harbour vindictiveness or hatred,” he said.

And Mr. Munkombwe said he would ensure that he worked to the satisfaction of the people of southern province without any political inclination.

And speaking earlier, Sworn of the Spirit Ministries Reverend, Carlos Siansima said the Church in Livingstone would support Mr. Munkombwe’s leadership.

Father Katete of the Anglican Church said the church criticise government when it deserved to be criticised.

Father Katete said the church should also pray for government, noting that Mr. Munkombwe was not only a minister for the MMD but for everyone.

  1. An incoherent, stinking, numb-skull God-bothering ass-hat. Just like the average Zambian politician.

  2. What’s so nice about this foul vocabulary some of you are proud to exercise? Don’t you have enough word power to back your opinnions? This is not the true picture of Zambian behavior you’re portraying, we Zambians are generally polite and full of respect in our speech, if you learnt those bad ways by overstaying in the white man’s country, emancipate your minds, you prodigal Sons!!!

  3. Bwana Honourable Minister i salute you, but is it not time for you to groom up another Tonga to take over from you, dont be in a rush, meanwhile enjoy your stay in the office and burn as much fuel as you can.

  4. Inferiority complex is the problem with No.5 What is this tonga issue all about again.We are tired about it and fellow Zambians lets talk about real issues. Why should people demonise tongas day in and out? This is very unfair to say the least.
