Africa-Press – Zambia. <\/strong><\/span>In a reassuring turn of events, Zesco Board Chairperson, Mr. Vickson Nc\u2019ube, has swiftly dispelled rumors regarding the suspension of Zesco Managing Director Eng. Victor Benjamin Mapani. Speculation had been rife throughout the day, prompting concerns among stakeholders. However, Mr. Nc\u2019ube\u2019s statement in a WhatsApp group provided much-needed clarity.<\/p>\n

\u201cPlease, Mapani has not been fired. He is not even on forced leave!\u201d Mr. Nc\u2019ube\u2019s assertion serves as a firm rebuttal to the circulating rumors, confirming that Eng. Mapani\u2019s position as Managing Director remains unchanged.<\/p>\n

Efforts to obtain an official comment from the Zesco Board were hindered by their ongoing meeting during the press time. However, Mr. Nc\u2019ube\u2019s categorical denial effectively puts an end to the speculation, alleviating concerns among stakeholders and the public.<\/p>\n

The false rumors regarding Eng. Mapani\u2019s suspension underscore the importance of accurate information and the need to verify sources before drawing conclusions. Mr. Nc\u2019ube\u2019s statement serves as a reminder of the significance of clear communication from authoritative sources, particularly in matters concerning key figures within Zambia\u2019s energy sector.<\/p>\n

As there is no further confirmation expected following the Zesco Board\u2019s meeting, stakeholders can rest assured that Eng. Mapani remains at the helm of Zesco as Managing Director.<\/p>\n

With this clarification, attention can now shift back to the core operations of Zesco, ensuring continued stability and progress within the company.<\/p>\n
