Msukwa, Kanyasho Stripped Off Parliament Positions

Two former government Ministers Kezzie Msukwa and Chrissy Kanyasho have been removed as Chief Whip and deputy leader of the house in parliament respectively.

The two have been replaced by Jacob Hara and Mark Katsonga.

The development follows recent Cabinet appointments by President Lazarus Chakwera which has seen both of them left out.

Kanyasho, a UTM Member of Parliament was recently dropped in the cabinet by President Lazarus Chakwera as Deputy Minister of Health.

However, Kezzie Msukwa who was Minister of Lands is being accused of being involved in corruption acts.

Richard Chimwendo Banda has been maintained as leader of the house.

Meanwhile, Ian Mwenye, spokesperson for Parliament has confirmed the changes.

Mwenye has also confirmed that President Lazarus Chakwera will open the Parliamentary meeting on Thursday.
