Parking the judiciary
Congratulations to the Appointed Judges of the High Court, Supreme Court, Court of Appeal and Constitutional Court of Zambia.
Indeed special thanks your excellency for the special and excellent recommendations made by the judicial Service commission.. Very wonderful recommendations deserving all the Praise in the land of Work and Joy.
I recognize the well deserved hard work, exemplary to the young generation, of the Honorable Judge Concepter Chinyanwa now appointed to the Court of Appeal, the high Flying Honorable Judge Vincent Sililo Siloka , 2 years ago the Kasama Magistrate, now Judge of the Constitutional Court, Hon Judge David Chubili and many other great men and women of Zambia who will wear the robes in our Honorable Courts.
I wish them all the best as We stand and Sing of Zambia, Proud and Free.
Congratulations to all the men and women appointed to these positions in the Judiciary. It is also worth observing that a number of women have been appointed thereby increasing the gender balance. These appointments will no doubt have a significant impact and reduce the backlog of cases especially at the Court of Appeal.
Congrats to all. Please pls I encourage you to work like the appointing authority works. Let’s put our Zambia where it should be, a land of peace with people full of love for one another. Let’s clean the country quickly by putting criminals and thieves behind bars. We can start with those fools who recently killed that business lady in a manner that is very hard to imagine that those fools were Zambians.
