" "I am a Zambian businesswoman and esteemed corporate leader who participated in the August 2021 presidential election as the candidate for the New Heritage Party.

I have also served on numerous boards and committees across government, quasi-government, and private institutions. From 2012 to December 2017, I represented Africa on the International Ethics Standards Board for Accountants (IESBA) under the International Federation of Accountants (IFAC) in New York.

In 1976, I became the first woman elected as Treasurer of the University of Zambia Students Union (UNZASU). In 2004, I founded Youth with a Vision for Zambia, a non-governmental organization dedicated to addressing the concerns of young adults aged 18 to 40, with a focus on fostering mindset change. I am also a founding member of the Heritage Party, established as a political party in 2001 under former Vice President Brigadier General Godfrey Miyanda. After Brig. Gen. Miyanda stepped away from active politics in 2020, I revitalized the Heritage Party under its new name, the New Heritage Party (NHP). In the 2021 general election, I ran as the party's presidential candidate, becoming the only female candidate and placing seventh out of 16 candidates. Currently, I am the President of the New Heritage Party and am committed to leading the party to form a government in 2026.
