About us

The General Kingsley Chinkuli Foundation stands as a beacon of homage to the exemplary life and indomitable spirit of General Kingsley Chinkuli, Zambia's first indigenous Army and Zambia National Defence Force Commander. General Chinkuli was also Minister of State and Cabinet Minister (1977-1991) and head of several corporate entities including country manager for First Quantum Minerals Limited (FQM). Grounded in the principles of service, leadership, and community, the foundation seeks to perpetuate the ideals and contributions of this visionary military and corporate leader.

I was the same yesterday, I am the same today, I will be the same tomorrow; My honour is my word and my word is my honour.

I pledge unto thee—a bond forged in integrity, an enduring testament of my character, principles and loyalty to the nation of Zambia and its people.

GODWIN KINGSLEY CHINKULI, DFS, NSS, GCDS
