The Church of Central Africa Presbyterian (CCAP) Synod of Livingstonia’s St Andrews congregation has re-elected elder Lameck Kayira as its session clerk for the next four years.
At the elections, done through a secret ballot, Kayira got 181 votes out of the eligible 224 St Andrews’ elders and deacons that were present.

In the first round of voting, Kayira defeated elders Maclean Tembo and Viston Mulungu who then withdrew from the race and opted, instead, to compete for the position of deputy session clerk.
Kayira said, in his acceptance remarks, that he was “humbled and happy” that the elders and deacons had trust in him to serve the church for the next four years.
