ONE ZAMBIA, ONE NATION 🇿🇲 ✊🏾
Today, I was deeply HONOURED to pay a courtesy visit on His Excellency, President Hakainde Hichilema of the Republic of Zambia, at the STATE HOUSE in Lusaka. Affectionately known across the continent as HH, President Hichilema is an accomplished BUSINESSMAN, a Pan-Africanist, a sharp-minded ECONOMIC REFORMER and a very HUMBLE man with a passion to always serve the Nation and People of ZAMBIA.
In our EXTENSIVE conversation, His Excellency eloquently spoke of the TIMELESS BOND between Zambia and Zimbabwe, the Siamese twin Nations whose destinies have been intertwined by both geography of the ZAMBEZI RIVER and history of the LIBERATION STRUGGLE. From the days of the FEDERATION OF RHODESIA until post-independence, Zambia and Zimbabwe have remained INSEPARABLE siblings. The President also spoke GLOWINGLY of how our founding fathers (President Kenneth Kaunda and President Robert Mugabe) envisioned a UNITED Southern Africa on account of the SIMILARITIES shared by our SISTER COUNTRIES . Today, that ASPIRATION is being carried with great wisdom and courage by President Hichilema and President E. D. Mnangagwa. ✊🏽✊🏽✊🏽
We discussed the challenges being experienced in Zambia’s ENERGY SECTOR, especially the suppressed POWER GENERATION at Kariba North due to adverse hydrological conditions. I was however thoroughly IMPRESSED by President Hichilema’s appreciation of RENEWABLE ENERGY project funding models and his commitment to PARTNER with the private sector in order to URGENTLY address Zambia’s energy crisis.
Beyond energy, I COMMENDED His Excellency for the bold economic reforms his Government has implemented during their FIRST term of office. The President has entrenched more EFFICIENCIES in governance by improving fiscal discipline, trimming a previously BLOATED Cabinet, enhancing TRANSPARENCY and fighting the VICE of CORRUPTION head on. Today, Zambia has regained investor confidence and significantly grown its GDP under the leadership of President Hichilema.
We further explored various areas of MUTUAL economic interest such as INFRASTRUCTURE DEVELOPMENT and the enhancement of bilateral trade across the ZAMBEZI. We also reflected on the STRONG ties between our two countries, especially in light of the upcoming Zimbabwe–Zambia Trade and Investment Conference scheduled for, 14 November 2025, which is expected to further deepen ECONOMIC COOPERATION and unlock new cross-border opportunities particularly for the Private Sector.
MR PRESIDENT, thank you for HONOURING me with your time in between your very BUSY schedule. I am deeply inspired and IMPRESSED by your vision for “ONE ZAMBIA, ONE NATION”

This past WEEKEND, I had the DISTINCT PLEASURE of paying yet another courtesy visit to His Excellency PROF. ARTHUR PETER MUTHARIKA, the President of the Republic of Malawi. Our conversation, as always, was very enriching and I marvelled at the VISION His Excellency has for the people and NATION of Malawi 👏🏽👏🏽. I continue to be deeply IMPRESSED by His Excellency’s razor-sharp intellect and calm leadership DISPOSITION. What I can confirm WITHOUT any fear of CONTRADICTION is that President MUTHARIKA is a leader who has a very CLEAR sense of purpose and long-term NATIONAL vision of where he intends to take his Country – FORWARD !!!! 💪🏽
Barely TWO MONTHS in office, His Excellency has already set a new tone for GOVERNANCE. His bold decision to reduce the size of Cabinet from over 40 ministries to a LEANER but more EFFICIENT and focused 22 Ministries has sent a POWERFUL message of FISCAL DISCIPLINE and institutional reform of EPIC PROPORTION 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽. Under his VISIONARY leadership, President MUTHARIKA’s administration has also introduced FREE EDUCATION for both primary and secondary school learners, thus affording an opportunity for THOUSANDS of children, particularly in rural communities, to receive BASIC EDUCATION. His Excellency has indeed injected fresh energy into the Malawian economy and restored hope to families across the country.
As someone passionate about INFRASTRUCTURE and ENERGY DEVELOPMENT, I was particularly pleased that our discussion touched on the untapped potential of LAKE MALAWI and the vast opportunities around a FLOATING SOLAR and MINI-HYDRO projects. Lake Malawi has the capacity to generate more than 1000MW and I am confident that President MUTHARIKA’s administration understands the urgency of expanding ENERGY ACCESS and welcomes PRIVATE SECTOR participation to accelerate that agenda.
What struck me the MOST was the President’s sincerity and how he remains deeply connected to the people of MALAWI even at GRASSROOT LEVEL. His clarity of thought and FIRM leadership posture are quite RARE but very inspiring. Malawi is indeed BLESSED to have a Head of State whose ENTIRE focus is on serving his PEOPLE through economic development and fostering NATIONAL UNITY across the socio-political divide.
His Excellency, I extend my deepest appreciation for yet another opportunity to learn and tap into your RICH WISDOM. You are a leader of great intellect and under your stewardship, the future of Malawi is very BRIGHT 🇲🇼
