Let me tell you about a man who embodies Black excellence so effortlessly it almost feels illegal. Dr. Kachinga Sichizya, Zambia’s own world-class neurosurgeon and the Chief of Neurosurgery at the University Teaching Hospital in Lusaka.
He’s out here saving lives and doing it while lifting up praise like he’s got a direct line to Heaven on speakerphone.
This doctor and his surgical team literally sing during operations. Not hum. Not mumble. SING. Full-on worship, right there in the operating theatre, glorifying God while navigating the delicate architecture of the human brain. And honestly? That’s the kind of energy the medical world needs more of.
Because if you can remove a tumor while harmonizing, you’re clearly being guided by more than just textbooks and scalpels.
Recently, Dr. Sichizya took on a long, grueling, high-stakes brain surgery on a 13-year-old girl, the kind of operation that would make even veteran surgeons sweat bullets. But not this king. He walked in with precision, faith, and a playlist that probably had angels tapping their feet. While his hands worked miracles, his spirit stayed tuned into God. That’s not just skill. That’s divine partnership.
And I’m sorry… let me be extremely real for a second: I would be on the FIRST thing smoking to get operated on by this man. Plane ticket, bus ticket, bicycle, doesn’t matter. If Dr. Sichizya says, “Lay right here, we’ll sing through it,” I’m already on the table, gown on, hair in a bonnet.
Because when Black excellence meets divine purpose? Whew. That’s when the impossible becomes routine.
I have zero doubt, not even half a teaspoon, that this 13-year-old girl pulled through successfully. When you’ve got a surgeon who knows the anatomy AND the Almighty, that operating room becomes holy ground. She wasn’t just under anesthesia… sis was under divine coverage.
Dr. Kachinga Sichizya is a reminder that brilliance and spirituality are not opposites. They’re a power combo. And seeing a Black physician blending science, skill, culture, and faith in a field dominated by everything but us? That’s something to celebrate loud.
This is Black excellence with a soundtrack. And the whole continent should be proud.
