Youths from the PF Party who were involved in a bitter exchange of words with Eastern Province Permanent Secretary, Chileshe Mulenga in Mfuwe last week have apologized for the ugly incident.
Speaking to Breeze News, the youths say that it is unfortunate that there was such a misunderstanding.
Trouble ensued after the youths accused Dr. Mulenga of not assisting to resolve misunderstandings among PF members in the province and not assisting them to access government contracts.
The youths charged that the PS was accommodating those who are fueling confusion in PF and assisting MMD cadres with government contracts.
Speaking on behalf of the youths, Jacob Sakala has pleaded with Dr. Mulenga to forgive the youths and facilitate the release of one of their colleagues, Henry Mumba who was arrested for insulting a senior government official.
But when contacted for comment, Dr. Mulenga distanced himself from the matter, stating that it was already before the court.
Police Deputy Commissioner Hudson Namachila also confirmed the arrest of Henry Mumba, 26, for insulting the Provincial Permanent Secretary Dr. Chileshe Mulenga.
He appeared before the magistrate court last week and remains in jail after failing to pay for his bail.
