To: His Excellency, President Hakainde Hichilema
Your Excellency,
I write to you as a deeply concerned wife, fearing for the life of my beloved husband, Dr. Chishimba Kambwili, who is currently serving a sentence in Chimbokaila Correctional Facility.
His health has deteriorated significantly. He suffers from chronic conditions such as high blood pressure and diabetes, which require constant monitoring and timely medical care. Unfortunately, in his current state, he has not been able to access the urgent treatment he needs.
If his situation remains unchecked, I fear the worst, that we may lose him while in custody. This is not just a matter of law, but of humanity and compassion. I am therefore making a humble and heartfelt plea for your intervention, Your Excellency.
Please allow my husband to be taken to a medical facility for immediate attention. Once he has been treated and stabilised, the authorities can return him to prison to continue serving his sentence.
This request is not about seeking preferential treatment, but about preserving a life. As a leader who has always spoken about upholding human dignity and the sanctity of life, I trust you will consider this appeal favourably.
I pray for your wisdom, compassion, and understanding in this matter.
Yours sincerely,
Carol Kambwili
Wife to Dr. Chishimba Kambwili
An appeal for humanity during sickness… for care when some one is alive. This is the dignity of the living people seek , for the dignity in death.
Access to medical treatment, and upon treatment to go back to Prison to continue serving his sentence for Tonga Hate Speech is what the Wife to Hon Chishimba Kambwili .
The former Information Minister has suffered traumatic events as he was attending to the Tonga Hate Speech Trial. Being involved in a terrible accident as he was going to attend trial and losing 2 brothers..and then being in prison, being shunted to court for alleged illegal assembly, and facing poor health challenges. The mental torture he is going through is unimaginable.
The man needs to be home… even house arrest can be an alternative.
Zambia shouldn’t always be imposing custodial sentences for such cases surely.
May the plea of Mrs Kambwili be heard.
” is what the Wife of Hon Chishimba Kambwili seeks”

Keep quiet and start reasoning normally like your buddie Tyrol Indigo. Boma ni Boma.
@ Mr Crab
I will never be quiet
You won’t get me out of the race
I will keep surfacing…you block me here, I re-emerge . This platform is not just for Praise Idiots. It’s for everyone.
Then you are beyond reason so maybe a psychiartic intervention is what maybe a solution. Clearly if you lack the ability to reason then there is something wrong with you.
Dont go out of bounds as you respond. Yes this platform is not for praise idiots and as such there is non here
He could have been a changed man now who has repented.Boma I yangane po musanga.The combination of BP and diabetes plus accident effects may not be good to that individual.The one who wrote the letter may not be the wife but regardless.My view.
Much as the reasons are genuine, but some blackmail is on the ground here as spotted even in One Hundred Thousands kwacha coment. This may not be the wife coz the wife can write to the President not the social media. This is abena Mwamba type
…and that condition Amos Chanda mentioned.
Where you advising him not to be decisive in his approach to politics, yes this may be a good request but going forward please advise him that people did not apply to be born in different tribes and it is inhuman to hate others just because of where they come from, we are all human and no human is more superior than the other in God’s eyes. Yes we feel for him, but let it start from his confession

Mrs Kambwili, how many people are in imprison suffering from far worse illness than your husband?
If he knew he was ill why didnt he think about the crimes he was committing? Look you even lost your brothers in law. All that and the drama of stolen money where your daughter was involved?
Stop thinking that the rest of us stupid when we abide by the law. Stop thinking that prison will cause his death. Death is a prescription of sin and each of us know NOT the time or date of our fate. Mr. Kambwili has been using excuses for his misbehaviour and thinks status is some kind of “get out if jail card”. He is even lucky that his sentence is short. Lets respect the letter of the law. Then jail will not visit us…period.
Equal treatment please. If Kambwili is not getting medical attention while others are, then the system is being very unfair to Kambwili. If Kambwili is seeking for special favour then sorry, we cannot have laws for different people. Lesson for everyone, don’t applaud when your loved one is making a mistake, in the same way the wife is fighting for Kambwili, her dear husband, she should have been the first to be stopping him from rumbling tribal divisions.
Ba kaponya, why is the horn being blown about Kambwili and his illness. Are saying he is the only sick convict?
There many and where the state can these convicts get free medical help.
Where is GBM right now? Is he in hospital? No he is at home after having cried about the system. So was he so sick to begin with? If so why arent the same people were making noise about being so sick giving us a play by play statememt of his treatment after he was released?
Lets no insult Zambians by some people lying that they are so sick yet they abuse the system and avoid paying the price we all pay when a crime is committed. This is not Animal farm. We are all equal before the law. If Kambwili is sick I know for a fact he is taken to a medical facility so dont suggest he is not. Kambwili is nothing special. And his reason for convict is as abhorent as the suggestion you make.
Chishimba Kambwili behaved uncouth! He nd his ilk preached directed hate at certain section of the population with vigorous propaganda which recruited many that are lazy to dig facts for themselves leading to the societal rot in national unity being experienced now! A high ranking official of Kambwili’s stature was highly privileged to know better than the ordinary citizens of consequences for wrong doing and who is not aware that his health always comes to the fore when the law requires that he clarifies his utterances! The tribal drive and hate has effectively soiled Zambian politics as the propagaters have now stuck their evil on the current government administration and particularly on one person! God takes no sides but He protects those on His side in their deeds! Eqt Kambwili enjoy the same prison health services every other prisoner is afforded!
This is a genuine request. He can be taken for medical attention to a facility of his choice as long as he is willing to pay for that facility treated as an outpatient then be taken back to prison.
