Chibamba Kanyama has quit his job as Director General at Zambia National Broadcasting Corporation (ZNBC).

ZNBC Board Chairman Dr John Mulwila announced Mr Kanyama’s resignation in Lusaka, Saturday, May 10. He said  Mr Kanyama will be taking up a new job at the International Monetary Fund (IMF) as Communication Advisor.

Dr Mulwila says while it is sad that ZNBC is bidding farewell to Mr Kanyama, it is a happy occasion because he will raise the country’s flag higher while carrying the Public service Broadcaster’s flag to the rest of the world.

He says the ZNBC board is grateful to Mr Kanyama for his outstanding service while at the helm of ZNBC since March 6, 2012.

Dr Mulwila says Mr Kanyama will remain in office until June 15, to manage the transition after which the board will make announcement about the process of identifying the successor.

He has urged all ZNBC stakeholders to continue supporting the Public Service broadcaster during this transition period.

Dr Mulwila says the board takes this as an opportunity to drive ZNBC’s business forward and accelerate the corporation’s transformational efforts. / ZNBC News
