CATHOLIC PRIEST SAYS PRESIDENT HICHILEMA’S CALL FOR PEACE HYPOCRITICAL



By Nelson Zulu

Director at Dignitatis Humanea, Father Andrew Mukosa, has described President Hakainde Hichilema’s call for renewed peace, love, and reconciliation in the country during this festive period as hypocritical.



Father Mukosa says although the President’s call is welcome, it is empty unless preceded by tangible justice and corrective action from leaders, saying reconciliation must follow demonstrable steps to address grievances.



In an interview with Phoenix News, Father Mukosa has emphasized that justice should come before peace, noting that true unity flows from fair treatment, accountability, and open dialogue rather than ceremonial appeals.

He has urged leaders to self-reflect, acknowledge failures, and engage communities in genuine processes of reconciliation rather than relying on rhetoric.



Father Mukosa cited systemic failures in service delivery, including neglected health infrastructure, unfinished district projects, underfunded constituency development programs, and perceived mismanagement, as signs of neglect that have eroded public trust and deepened social fractures.



He warns against a negative peace where silence masks unresolved tensions and stressed that service delivery and justice are prerequisites for lasting harmony, especially among public servants prioritizing the needs of the poor.

  1. Catholic Priests bamutendeka fye HH, why are they like that? You find that most of them have their homilies on HH? No wonder the President still maintains that these people hate him. Should someone respond badly, they will quickly pick a quarrel accusing the president of being at enmity with Catholic Church because he is always their target. According to them, he is playing with fire and if the fire missed him on Bill 7, they want to start him again from his words of calling for unity. Today it’s father Andrew Mukosa talking, tomorrow they will generalize and say it’s Catholic Church you are insulting. Please lekeni President abombe incito bamupela abantu, naimwe ba priest bombeni incito bamipela abantu and at the end of the day we know that incito shonse fipelwa na Lesa. So leka incito yamunobe, bomba incito yobe.

  2. Look who’s talking about hypocrisy! A cleric who is supposed to show love to all including the President, is instead spewing hatred and throwing tar at everything the President says. You are the Polepole that PK Chishala told us about. Sadist!
