Zambia: Various Ways of Observing National Prayer Day By Leo Igwe

Since 2015, this southern African nation has observed a national day of prayer. In the same year, its current President Edgar Lungu led the entire nation to pray for the appreciation of the value of the Kwacha, which is Zambia’s national currency. This year’s Prayer Day has a different focus: Fasting, Repentance and Reconciliation in Zambia. The state’s Ministry of Guidance and Religious affairs is planning an event at the Lusaka National Prayer Site. The agency has urged Zambians to face the future as a reconciled, united and prosperous nation under god’s guidance.
