Kambwili barred from today’s Mukulapembe traditional ceremony

The Mukulapembe traditional ceremony organising committee of Abena Mukulu people has barred National Democratic Congress (NDC) Leader Chishimba Kambwili from attending the function.

This is contained in a letter addressed to Luwingu District NDC Chairperson John Mulenga signed by committee secretary Albert Chanda in Luwingu District.

Mr. Chishimba has been rejected from attending this year’s mukulapembe traditional ceremony of abena Mukulu by the organising committee in order to maintain peace and order during the ceremony which will be held tomorrow.

‘’Please take this opportunity to advise him correctly about our position. Lastly if there has been any correspondence from us requesting any financial or material support it was done without the blessing of the senior Chieftainess Chungu or committee,’’ the read in part.

This is the third time that NDC leader has been opposed from attending tradition ceremony in Northern Province. He was last year 2017 and this year rejected from attending Kusefya pang’wena traditional of the Bemba speaking people by organising committee.

Mukulapembe traditional ceremony will be held today at senior chieftainess chungu main arena.
