Luanshya Member of Parliament Simon Kachimba and Opposition Patriotic Front Roan Member of Parliament Chishimba Kambwili have reconciled following a meeting the duo had in the District Administrator’s office.
Mr. Kachimba told ZANIS that he had forgiven his Roan counterpart over the disparaging remarks made about him that he was dull because he hailed from North-Western province.
Mr. Kachimba further appealed to the Lunda people who sued Kambwili in the Luanshya magistrate court to withdraw the matter as a gesture of reconciliation.
He said that the two Mps agreed to start a new chapter and work together in order to develop Luanshya town as opposed to antagonizing each other.
Mr. Kambwili also said it is true the two had reconciled and pledged to work for the development of the people of Luanshya.
He said the two Members of Parliament were national leaders who were supposed to show exemplary integrity in society, adding that in-fighting would not take them anywhere.
Mr. Kambwili further said he hugged with Mr. Kachimba in the presence of the District Commissioner George Kapu and that the two committed themselves to keep consulting each other on how to develop the town of Launshya.
Mr. Kambwill was recently arrested and charged with conduct likely to cause breach of peace when he raised a Patriotic Front symbol to a peaceful crowd of the Lunda Cultural Association who gathered at Civic Centre where they read a petition to President Rupiah Banda over Kambwili's remarks against Kachimba and the people of North-western province.
Mr. Kambwili denied the charge and has been appearing in court over the same case.
