BISHOP KALESHA CLARIFIES AND APOLOGISES OVER MISINTERPRETED STATE HOUSE REMARKS
By Constance Shilengwe
CITYGATE Christian Centre Bishop Victor Kalesha has clarified that his recent remarks made at State House now widely circulating on social media, were not targeted at any specific group.
Bishop Kalesha was among the church leaders who met President Hakainde Hichilema over the weekend to express support for the amendment of Bill 7.
His comments sparked debate online after a video emerged in which he was quoted as suggesting that only people with children have the moral authority to speak on constitutional reforms.
But Bishop Kalesha says the remarks were an off-the-cuff statement that were later misunderstood and taken out of context. He has since withdrawn the part of the statement that raised concern and has apologised to anyone who may have felt offended.
The Bishop adds that, as a Christian, he is committed to making peace with all people and maintains that his written statement should be regarded as his official position on the matter.
He further notes that the issue was blown out of proportion and insists it was never his intention to offend anyone.
