Former President Edgar Chagwa Lungu has taken to social media to celebrate the 61st birthday of President Hakainde Hichilema.

Hichilema clocked 61 on Sunday and he celebrated his birthday in silence.

But Lungu could not hide his silence on the matter.

“My dear brother, Bashi Miyanda,

“As you celebrate another year of life and embark on a new chapter of leadership on behalf of our nation, my family and I join fellow Zambians in extending our heartfelt,” wrote Lungu.

Hakainde Hichilema kicked out of office Edgar Lungu two years ago.
