Leaders Must Govern In The Name Of God – Kabimba

Wynter Kabimba says Zambia cannot develop without leaders who govern in the name of God.
Meanwhile, Southern Province minister Daniel Munkombwe says every time Kabimba opens his mouth, the country benefits.
Speaking at Harry Mwaanga Nkumbula International Airport on Tuesday, Kabimba, who was in Livingstone at the invitation of the SDA Church to grace the 2nd Southern Africa-India Ocean Division (SID) Pathfinders’ Camporee at Hillcrest Technical School, told the PF cadres that welcomed him that the church looks upon the PF government as a partner in national development.
“Therefore, we should always remember that this country cannot go forward without leaders that are God-fearing. We need to fear God, we need to govern the people of Zambia in the name of God,” Kabimba said.
Munkombwe said Kabimba was uniting factor, loyal to President Michael Sata and the people of Zambia.
“Every time Kabimba opens his mouth, the province benefits, the nation benefits,” he said.
And officiating at the SID Camporee yesterday, Kabimba said many youths had become a liability to the economies of many nations because of being enslaved by drug addiction. Kabimba praised the SDA church for utilising the Pathfinders’ movement as a skills development sector for the youths.
“To secure economy in any country, investments to the youth sector is the key to social security… We have too many youths around the world, including Zambians, who are enslaved by addiction to harmful drugs. Those are the ones who become a liability to the economy of any nation; they become destitute in life and grow up to become dangerous criminals in any society,” Kabimba said.
He said youths where a special asset in the economic development of any nation and must keep themselves healthy, safe, clean and proactive.
“Do not get involved in bad and dangerous activities and lifestyles like alcohol and drug abuse which diminish your character and integrity which are valuable for your future achievements as citizens,” he said.
Kabimba said youths must know that they were living in a sick world where many incurable diseases such as HIV and AIDS where on an increase.
And SDA president Dr Harrington Akombwa says it is sad that some young people are ashamed of the word of God.
Dr Akombwa said the SDA desired good citizens and a better life for everyone regardless of their creed.
He said with a political party (The Green Party) talking of legalising marijuana and youths not ashamed to smoke the substance, nations needed to have a core of young people trained to be good citizens to take government to higher grounds.
