Congratulations to Hon. Haimbe S.C. & Hon. Kasune for their well deserved appointments. Wishing you all the best in your new positions. Thank you your Excellency for those appointments.
Nzovo doesn’t know his work, the man was allover no action.
Kasune Princess. Master of Theology. Master of Humanitarian….
Do we mean we can’t find a competent lawyer in UPND to run MoJ ? A competent Medical Doctor to run MoH ? Some specialized ministries need specialized people.
This is my take on the changes
My thought as well.
The Minister of Justice need not necessarily be a lawyer, neither does the Minister of Health need to be a doctor. That is because the Ministry of Justice is not a law firm and the Ministry of Health is not a hospital or some medical practice. The extension of the argument that the Minister of Justice ought to be a lawyer is that the President ought to be a Jack of all trades and that is clearly a nonsense. All it requires is someone with some learning in whatever field and the ability to be people-oriented and let the technocrats do their thing as per government policy. The technocrats after all swear to be honest and loyal.
Excellent appointments and changes. Congrats to them and the appointing authority.
Gunner,
Yo,analysis spot,& supported, in Countries, its been a normal, practice,many ministers of Justice, have not been, Lawyers by qualifications, just as recently,,Given Lubinda, a diploma holder,from NRDC, was Justice minister,,and by average, he did excel,well in that potifolio,,its only later on, when he messed up, big time over,the famous, but ,very unpopular,PF Bill 10,,
Silvia,Masebo, is another example, she’s got no,any health related qualifications,,But just ,admire & marvel, at how she’s running the ministry of Health?so,it just depends on each individual minister’s, personal ability & self effort,to make a ministry to tick,,
Infact,the late ,Mundia Sikatana,a lawyer was one of the best Agriculture ministers we’ve had, under MMD,
Congratulations, Mr President, on these appointments,Infact Princess Kasune,more than, deserves a ministerial job, she should have had it,much earlier, coz even as an MP, one just needs to visit Keembe, to see,how, she has spread developmental projects in her area,,
This is what is causing the problem of tribalism in this country. And Hichilema and Upnd pretend not to see that. From these appointments you can see that Hichilema’s cabinet has left out the biggest tribes in this country. Four appointments and all of them from Lenje and Tonga tribes! Hichilema and Upnd may be saying , “we have fixed them (Bembas and Easterners), but one thing they should know is that it will be very difficult for them to rule this country again! Especially that these tribal acts are now worsened by mis management of the government, resulting into hunger serious hunger, suffering and starvation! People are just saying, “he has failed”! If one has failed Grade 7, how can it be changed to say he has passed! That person can’t proceed to Grade 8! It’s over!
