Mukwa Lodge. Zambia
*As seen in The Logbook
With a distinctly executive/African feel Mukwa Lodge and Restaurant is the ideal destination for families and tourists looking to experience the natural wonders and delicious flavours of Zambia. At the same time, it’s location near the city centre of Kitwe, the Hub of the Copperbelt makes it the perfect base of operations for business people and investors wanting to visit Zambia and secure a place for themselves in the country’s shining economic future.
![mukwa travel zambia](https://i0.wp.com/www.thelostexecutive.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/12/mukwa-lodge-tripadvisor-1.jpg?resize=550%2C413&ssl=1)
LOCATION AND ACCOMMODATION
Ideally located near the city centre, Mukwa Lodge provides easy access into and around the city as well as reliable access to the tourist sites around the country.
Perfectly situated in a secure and excellent location along Mpezeni Avenue, the surrounding area of the lodge makes it a perfect place for a retreat. As is often found in Africa, it is possible to be both near the heart of a commercial hub while still being surrounded by the sort of lush nature one would expect in an isolated retreat.
The lodge offers outside decking, a pool, leisure spaces and many locations for relaxing and enjoying the splendid Zambian evenings. There are a number of rooms available, including one family sized, two twin, eleven standard and six executive suites benefiting from air conditioning, flat screen televisions, WIFI, tea and coffee, mineral water and room service.
![mukwa travel zambia](https://i0.wp.com/www.thelostexecutive.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/12/mukwa-lodge-tripadvisor.jpg?resize=550%2C412&ssl=1)
RESTAURANT AND ACTIVITIES
The onsite restaurant offers a comprehensive menu including local and international dishes, for anyone wishing to introduce their pallets to a uniquely African flavour. African cuisine is known for its variety of tastes, its love of native spices and a deep passion for food. For centuries meal times throughout African nations and tribes was a time for community and feasting, where the flavouring and the use of spices told a story for the taste buds.
Being so close to the city centre also means that there are a number of activities available, including local tours, restaurant visits and historical sites to see. The lodge has also positioned itself well to support the investor-interested business mind and the hubs of interest for the number of fast growing industries are close at hand.
WHAT GUESTS CAN EXPECT
Mukwa Lodge is very proud of the reviews that it has received, which frankly rave about the cleanliness, the privacy and comfort that can be found and how all the rooms offer as much luxury and comfort as possible.
The restaurant’s staff and desire to offer the best experience stands out from other local eateries and has turned this into as much a culinary destination as an accommodation. Room prices are very reasonable and set to encourage longer stays for those wishing to explore all the aspects of this great country.

WHO declares mpox virus a public health emergency of international concern
![Mpox - formerly monkeypox - is a rare but dangerous infection similar to the now eradicated smallpox virus. Mpox - formerly monkeypox - is a rare but dangerous infection similar to the now eradicated smallpox virus.](https://global.unitednations.entermediadb.net/assets/mediadb/services/module/asset/downloads/preset/Libraries/Production%20Library/08-06-2022_CDC_monkeypox.jpg/image1170x530cropped.jpg)
Facebook Twitter Print Email
The chief of the World Health Organization (WHO) declared that the rise in mpox cases constitutes a public health emergency of international concern (PHEIC) , following advice from members at Wednesday’s International Health Regulations (IHR) Emergency Committee meeting.
A PHEIC is the highest level of alarm under international health law.
The WHO Director-General, Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus, called for the meeting last Wednesday to seek advice on whether the mpox – previously monkeypox – outbreaks are cause for international concern.
On Tuesday, the Africa Centres for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) declared the situation a public health emergency.
“The Emergency Committee’s advice to me, and that of the [Africa CDC], which yesterday declared a public health emergency of regional security, are aligned,” Tedros said in a post on the social media platform X, formerly Twitter.
Clades and cases
Mpox cases have been spreading throughout many countries in Africa, particularly the Democratic Republic of the Congo (DRC) and neighbouring Burundi, Kenya, Rwanda and Uganda. The potential for further spread in Africa is worrying, said the WHO chief.
“In addition to other outbreaks of other clades of mpox in other parts of Africa, it’s clear that a coordinated international response is essential to stop these outbreaks and save lives,” Tedros said.
This year already saw over 14,000 reported cases of the virus with 524 deaths, a significant increase in reported cases from 2023.
Tedros previously mentioned that the mpox outbreaks have occurred due to different viruses called clades.
At Wednesday’s meeting , he said there was transmission of the so-called clade 1b virus in the DRC last year which was caused “mainly through sexual networks”. This clade is reportedly deadlier and more easily transmitted from person to person.
Clade 1 has been circulating in the DRC for years while clade 2 was responsible for the global outbreak of 2022 which was declared an international public health emergency.
Tedros said in the past month that around 90 cases of successor clade 1b were reported in countries neighbouring the DRC which had not reported mpox cases before.
“Stopping these outbreaks will require a tailored and comprehensive response, with communities at the centre, as always,” Tedros said.
Addressing outbreak drivers
The WHO chief said the UN agency is working with governments of the affected countries, the Africa CDC and other partners to “understand and address the drivers of these outbreaks”.
“For example, we are providing machines to analyse blood samples and confirm cases of mpo [and] supporting laboratories to sequence viral samples,” he said.
He further mentioned “supporting case investigation and contact tracing” on the ground, training for health care workers and much more .
WHO regional response
“WHO has developed a regional response plan, requiring an initial $15 million to support surveillance, preparedness and response activities,” Tedros said.
This response was funded by $1.45 million from the WHO Contingency Fund for Emergencies.
More funds will be released in the coming days and the WHO chief is also appealing for more donor support.
Emergency vaccines
Currently, two WHO-recommended and approved vaccines are being used to combat the mpox virus outbreak.
Under an Emergency Use Listing (EUL) call last week , Tedros also invited manufacturers of mpox vaccines to express interest in producing them to “accelerate vaccine access for lower-income countries which have not yet issued their own national regulatory approval”.
EUL will allow partners like the UN Children’s Fund ( UNICEF ) to gather vaccines for distribution.
“We are working with all partners to facilitate equitable access to diagnostics, vaccines, supplies for clinical care and other tools," Tedros said.
WHO recommendations
Last August, the WHO chief released standing recommendations under the IHR to monitor mpox cases.
These recommendations were set to expire in five days, on 20 August 2024, but will be extended for another year to “support countries to respond to the chronic risk of mpox".
Some of the recommendations include enhancing community protection through adapting public health and social measures to local contexts, providing guidance and resources for delivering clinical mpox care and more.
Tedros said WHO is “committed in the days and weeks ahead to coordinate the global response, working closely with each of the affected countries and leveraging our on-the-ground presence t o prevent transmission, treat those infected and save lives ”.

Kenyan on Mars: Space travel dreams in Nairobi
A Kenyan man’s fascination with the idea of space travel and one day, maybe, getting to Mars.
The idea of space travel has been a childhood dream for Isaac Gathu and the idea of travelling to Mars inspires this Kenyan space enthusiast. An IT technician and businessman by profession, he is also the founding president of the Mars Society of Kenya and an “analogue astronaut”, someone who simulates space missions on Earth. Isaac’s passion is both serious and at times tongue-in-cheek. He wears his homemade space suit in public to encourage awareness of space travel, and he prepares himself physically and mentally through his analogue activities for his distant dream of one day being a Kenyan on Mars.
Lydia Matata is a screenwriter and filmmaker from Kenya. She has written on drama series for Netflix and Showmax and her latest documentary film Utapata Mwingine won the Best Emerging Filmmaker award at the UN Women’s Global Voices Film Festival.
