Ministry of Permanent Secretary Thabo Kawana attended the funeral.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThabo (Kawana), I would like to say to you. Many times when we have funerals they are turned into either UPND or PF funerals. This must come to an end, we out to be \u2018One Zambia One Nation\u2019,\u201d Mr. Lubinda told mourners.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIn passing and when we meet our Lord, He won\u2019t ask us which political party we belonged to. Rather He will ask what you did for the least of my brothers and sisters. I would like to therefore, appeal to all of us my dear fellow politicians, let us make sure that all of us unite so that every Zambian on their passing will say I belonged to one united Zambia,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<p>Meanwhile, Mr. Lubinda declared that the PF was alive and that people that want to destroy it won\u2019t manage. Ministry of Information Permanent Secretary Thabo Kawana, who attended the burial, conveyed the condolences message from President Hakainde Hichilema.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cHis Excellency the President sent me and said go and pass my sincere condolences to Honourable Dr. Frank Ng\u2019ambi and share with them that our thoughts and prayers are with them in this trying moment,\u201d Mr. Kawana said.<\/p>\n<p><strong>For More News And Analysis About <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/zambia\">Zambia<\/a> Follow <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/\">Africa-Press<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Africa-Press &#8211; Zambia.
