As Zambia prepares to commemorate the National Day of Prayer, Peace and Reconciliation on October 18th, former Presidential Political Advisor Dr. Chris Zumani Zimba has reconciled with Acting Patriotic Front (PF) President Given Lubinda in what has been described as a warm and brotherly meeting.
The dialogue, held in the presence of senior party officials including PF Secretary General Raphael Nakachinda and MCC Dr. Canicius Banda, centered on fostering unity and healing within the former ruling party as a way of honoring the legacy of the late President Edgar Chagwa Lungu.
The two leaders have pledged to work together in strengthening the PF and the broader Tonse Alliance ahead of next year’s elections.
Their reconciliation follows recent tensions within the party, where Dr. Zumani and Mr Lubinda clashed over Tonse Alliance matters,disagreements that led to Mr Lubinda reporting Dr. Zumani to the police for alleged identity theft and harassment.
