Respect Litunga, Mundubile advises HH

…contends that President Hichilema’s decision to send Nelly Mutti and Mwangala Zaloumis who are the subjects of the Litunga as messengers was an act of disrespect

By NATION REPORTER

PRESIDENT Hakainde Hichilema has exhibited grand disrespect against the Litunga of Barotseland by delegating his subjects in the name of Nelly Mutti and Mwangala Zaloumis as messengers to the Kuta for dialogue over Barotseland which the head of State has dismissed its existence, Brian Mundubile has said.

And Mr Mundubile, the Leader of the Opposition in Parliament has said the UPND government has been tormenting, torturing and subjecting ailing Chishimba Kambwili to both mental and physical anguish over tribal vitriols when in fact it was a campaign gimmick that was sanctioned by the ruling party to win the 2021 general elections. Mr Mundubile has advised President Hichilema to gather the courage and take a trip to the Kuta in Western Province and personally engage the Litunga instead of sending subjects to talk to the King over a matter they did not ignite.

Mr Mundubile, the Patriotic Front (PF) Mporokoso lawmaker said the people of Barotseland deserved respect and that it was therefore imprudent for the head of State to have sent Ms Mutti who is the Speaker of the National Assembly and Ms Zaloumis, the chairperson of the Electoral Commission of Zambia (ECZ) as his emissaries to the Kuta.
