Photograph of Zambian Minister of Livestock and Fisheries, Michael Katambo, on his kneels possibly begging the nation’s President, Edgar Lungu, has emerged online.
In the photograph, Lungu was seen sitting on the only chair in the office, while Katambo knelt down.
Following the emergence of the picture online, both Lungu and Katambo have become a subject of joke, as South African Minister of Sports, Fikile Mbalula, made a jest of them on his social media.
Mbalula, who took to his twitter handle@MbalulaFikile wrote,“Zambia’s president holding discussions with his livestock minister. No seat for him, not even kneeling.”

CULTURAL VARIATIONS
Kneeling down before your superior is culturally right in the Zambian culture. As long as the Prez is sitting down, you cannot stand before him. Your height must not be above him, especially if the one is a Lozi.
Livestock Minister?? Guess he should have been on all fours like a goat!
