In a heartfelt farewell, Zambia has honored His Excellency Nicholas Woolley, the outgoing High Commissioner of the United Kingdom to Zambia, who concluded his tour of duty today.
President Hakainde Hichilema highlighted the deepening of government-to-government and people-to-people relationships between Zambia and the United Kingdom during Woolley’s tenure. These relationships are rooted in shared values such as democracy, the rule of law, liberty, and the fight against corruption.
High Commissioner Woolley played a crucial role in supporting Zambia through some of its most challenging times, including the COVID-19 pandemic, debt restructuring negotiations, and the El Niño-induced drought that impacted food and energy security.
“We express our gratitude to the High Commissioner and the people of the United Kingdom for their pivotal role during these challenges,” President Hichilema stated.
As Woolley returns to the UK, President Hichilema extended his best wishes and gratitude to the British Government, the people, and the Crown for their continued support to Zambia.
Woolley, being a career diplomat, was confined to his office. I suggested no less than 3 projects which could improve the lives of poor Zambians, and create employment…TO NO AVAIL I hope his successor will be most receptive and empathetic.
You are busy giving him your mines and you think he will do abracadabra for you to improve poor people’s lives in your country? He is going home to face the music because soon there will be a change of government in the UK.
Are these the things to report about?
He spent time condoning police brutality.
Lucky him
Sunak is captain of a sinking ship so most of these guys are heading home before they are pushed. New party, new people.
I am an Pan Africanist and i have no good words or regards about these broods of vipers, the slave masters, savages, colonial devils. You can praise them all you want
KIKIKIKI Yet you keep running back to them with the begging bowl time & time again
Our forefathers never invited them but they arrived, killed, raped, stole, enslaved & colonised our own mind-sets and made us to totally depend on them even now while they keep on raping our African nation’s resources
They enslaved & colonised our mindsets & made us to depend on them period. You LT post my comments man. You are so colonised you LT
” WHEN YOU HEAR EUROPEANS / THE WEST PRAISING ME, JUST KNOW THAT I HAVE BETRAYED YOU- SAMORA MACHEL. Just think about this deeply
Your hh is praised by them brood of vipers the Europeans / the West… Wake up brethren, if they hated your forefathers how can they love you now?
Yet 60 years down the line we have achieved very little without outside help
Are you telling me we need another 100 years to decolonise our brains
People like you are retrogressive FULL STOP
Useless High Commisioner….
He was a UPND cadre
His overreach is why he has been recalled.
Zambians Africans are enslaving themselves your mindset is stuck in the past. Every country in the world could complain about the past you learn and move on don’t pass on poison on to the next generation if you care about them you learn from it and each generation have to deal with the world as it is today. You cannot keep using the excuse of yesterday’s generation free you mind for your sake for the continent sake. India Singapore even China they moved on moving on do not mean forgetting.
Ba Streatham, China & Singapore CHANGED their mindset & see where they are. We need to change our mindset in Africa. I am NOT stuck in the past & that is why i am saying what i am saying. I have lived in Singapore & China before & you can see their ways of doing things. When you CHANGE the way you think your world around you changes.
You not stuck in the past yet you keep mentioning the past
There is nothing strange or unique about those countries apart from their work ethic
and you wont change that here
Is this a story?
