Ratified New High Court Judges

220

The eleven High Court judges that President HAKAINDE HICHILEMA selected have been approved by Parliament.

VINCENT SILOKA, IAN MABBLOLOBBLO, MWAKA NGOMA, and GREENWELL MALUMANI are those who were ratified.

Also, there are LASTONE MWANABO, OBBISTAR MUSUKWA, MBILE WINA, ANN ONONUNJU, ENIAS CHULU, GEOFFREY MULENGA, & SITUMBEKO CHOCHO.

Select Committee Chairperson CHRISTOPHER KALILA stated earlier that the committee recommended that all of the nominees be ratified.

The motion was supported by Kafue Member of Parliament MIRRIAM CHOONYA since all the nominees were qualified, but she expressed worry that only four of the eleven are female.

YOTAM MTAYACHALO, a member of parliament for Chama North, stated that it is important to make sure that those appointed are honest men and women.
The Justice Minister MULAMBO HAIMBE concluded the discussion by asserting that the appointees reflect the character of the country.
