Ukusefya Pa Ng’wena canceled!
The Ukusefya Pa Ng’wena traditional ceremony has been cancelled because the prevailing mood cannot allow for joyful celebrations, according to the Bemba Royal Establishment.
The ceremony, which was scheduled for 17–19 September 2026, has been cancelled following Icilye ce Lamfya, held at Chitimukulu Palace in Mungwi District, Northern Province, on Friday.
The Bemba Royal Establishment said the prevailing mood in UluBemba is not conducive to ukusefya, which refers to joyful festivities.
“Icilye ce Lamfya observes that the prevailing mood in UluBemba is not conducive for ukusefya (joyful festivities). Therefore, the Bemba Royal Establishment has forthwith cancelled the earlier-planned 17–19 September 2026 Ukusefya Pa Ng’wena,” the statement read in part.
