NAREP National Secretary Jevan Kamanga
The opposition National Restoration Party (NAREP) has hailed government’s plans to constitute a medical board that will look into the health of Presidents in the country.
And the opposition political party has noted that Republican President Edgar Lungu is sick and he is not incapacitated as exaggerated by some people.
NAREP National Secretary Jevan Kamanga has told QFM News that there is need for relevant stakeholders to help and advise government on any illness of the sitting President saying it is a matter of national concern.
Reverend Kamanga says this is the reason why his party during the national convention drafting the constitution proposed the establishment of the office of the Physician General to look at the health of the president.
He says people should not exaggerate that President Lungu is sick and works are stalled saying that is misleading the nation.
Vice-President Inonge Wina announced in Parliament yesterday that government will consider constituting a medical board that will look into the health of presidents in the country.
