BLACK PRIDE EMPIRE™

END OF MOURNING PERIOD

As we come to the end of the mourning period for our brother, colleague and comrade STONARD BANDA, we give thanks to God for the life he lived and the memories he left with us.

We mourned, we remembered, we celebrated his life, and we gave him his final farewell.

As Scripture reminds us in 1 Thessalonians 4:13, we do not grieve as those without hope.

We will forever remember your leadership, Comrade Stonard.

May your legacy continue to live through the people, the art, and the community you touched.

Rest in Peace, Stonard Banda. 🕊️

STONARD’S MOTHER | FAREWELL PRAYER & SONG

In a deeply emotional moment, Stonard’s mother led a farewell prayer and song at her son’s burial.

She thanked God for the life He gave Stonard and reminded everyone that everything comes from God, and everything ultimately returns to Him.

Through her song “Fipelwa,” she expressed her faith, surrender and acceptance of God’s will.

She also prayed over her son and the grave, asking God to protect Stonard’s resting place and shield him from every spiritual ritual or harm.

A mother’s final prayer. A mother’s final song. A powerful farewell to her son.

REST IN PEACE, STONARD BANDA. 🕊️

OFFICIAL NOTICE: ARTISTIC SEND-OFFS FOR EDWARD MUFWEMPA & STONARD BANDA

The creative community is deeply saddened by the passing of our two colleagues and brothers, Edward Mufwempa and Stonard Banda.

As we prepare to lay both our brothers to rest tomorrow, we call upon artists, arts organisations, creative practitioners, colleagues, friends and the wider creative community to come together and honour their lives, work and contributions to the arts.

Please take note of the respective artistic send-off arrangements:

EDWARD MUFWEMPA — MATERO HALL// not LUSAKA PLAYHOUSE

The National Association of Media Arts (NAMA) has been granted permission to accord our late colleague and brother, Edward Mufwempa, an artistic send-off through matero hall, in keeping with the tradition of honouring members of the creative community who have passed on.

📍 Venue: Matero hall.
🕒 Rehearsal: Today at 15:00 hours
🎭 Artistic Send-Off: Through MATERO HALL(Not playhouse)
🕊️ Burial: Tomorrow

All artists and members of the creative community are encouraged to attend the rehearsal and participate in this final artistic tribute to Edward.

STONARD BANDA — FUNERAL HOUSE

For our late brother and colleague, Stonard Banda, his artistic send-off will be conducted this evening at the funeral house.

His funeral arrangements remain as planned. However, the artistic send-off will not proceed through Lusaka Playhouse. Instead, artists and colleagues will gather at the funeral house to honour Stonard and pay their final artistic tribute before his burial tomorrow.

📍 Funeral Gathering: Chipata Ground, near St. Paul’s Secondary School
🎭 Artistic Send-Off: This evening at the funeral house
🕊️ Burial: Tomorrow

We therefore encourage the creative fraternity to take note of these two separate arrangements.

May their souls rest in eternal peace.
