CHRISTMAS GREETINGS FROM THE PRESIDENT

Fellow Countrymen and women, as we gather with families and friends to celebrate the festivities, I draw your attention to the purpose of this season.

Christmas is a time to reflect on the miraculous birth of our Lord Jesus Christ, and subsequently, on the reason why He came.

It is time for us to reflect on the practical demonstration of God’s love whereby he gave his best to save mankind.

Fellow Zambians, i admonish you therefore, in that same spirit, to find time to spend with your families and extend your love to the needy In our society by practically giving to them.

Further, be reminded that Jesus is the reason for the season, therefore, let us all cautiously enjoy the season responsibly.

I wish you God’s blessings and protection.

Merry Christmas to each and every single one of you.

-Edgar Chagwa Lungu

PRESIDENT
