Vice President Nangolo Mbumba emphasised the important role that exhibitions such as this play in promoting cultural heritage and driving economic activity.

The expo, he added, serves as a valuable platform for businesses to showcase their goods and services, fostering opportunities for networking and knowledge exchange.

Mbumba says that in a world where cultural heritage is being overtaken by western culture, it is a good platform to learn about various totems and the values associated with them.
