President Michael Sata has revoked the appointment of Lameck Mangani as Patriotic Front (PF) Chairman for Eastern province, reports Zambian Eye Correspondent.
In a letter to Mangani also copied to PF General Secretary Wynter Kabimba and National Chairperson Inonge Wina, President Sata said the revocation is with immediate effect. He however thanked Mangani for his service during his short lived tenure.
President Sata has since appointed Attan Mwamba as Chairman for Eastern province. He said the appointment was with immediate effect.
Mangani who served as Minister under MMD, quit the ruling party in 2011 and campaigned for PF and Sata in the run-upto 2011 elections.
During Kabimba tour of Eastern province last week, there were protests that he be removed as Chairman as he had divided the party. Kabimba also dissolved the Provincial Executive Mangani has formed saying he had not submitted the names to Central Committee for ratification.
Whither Mangani? Time for deep reflection!
