The petition against the nomination of Edgar Lungu as a candidate for election to the office of president is a watershed moment for #Zambia... diggers.news/local/2021/06/…

🚨Rivers are one of the world’s most threatened ecosystems! 🆘 Reasons why our rivers suffer: 🏭Fragmentation by hydropower dams 🚧Pollution 🌾Over withdrawal of water 🌡️Climate change 33% of the world's remaining wetlands were destroyed in the last 50 years! #WorldRiverRun

It is the end of an era. Rest in peace and power, Tata Kaunda. Thank you for all you did for Mother Zambia and for the role you played in the liberation struggle of many African countries. We will forever be proud that you were ours. 🇿🇲

#RIPKK South Africans should never forget the solidarity President Kaunda showed in the fight for our freedom 🇿🇲

Goosebumps. A letter KK wrote to Zambian students abroad at the dawn of our Independence. The hope, the call to action. The reminder that building Zambia is a collective responsibility. #RIPKK #RIPKennethKaunda 🇿🇲

9 hours and counting! We will wait until we vote! 🗳 Remember that the Law says that as long as you are on the queue between 06:00 and 18:00 hrs you cannot be turned away. Voting should only stop when all those who are on the queue at 18:00 have voted! #ZambiaDecides2021 🇿🇲

Zambian youth, I’m so sorry for my generations cowardice and compromise. Standing in those queues at the polling station, I realised that Zambia has a future because of you! Our democracy is now in your hands and thank you so much for your courage! I shed tears of joy! Zikomo.

Bravo Linda Kasonde! 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾 Thank you for relentlessly fighting for our country! #ModernDayFreedomFighters 🇿🇲

UPND will probably have a defacto 2/3 majority in Parliament if you add nominated Members and consider the penchant of Independent MP to vote with the ruling party. Would be good for democracy if they just missed that threshold.

You are no longer in agreement with democracy If you suppress the voice of a people in order to secure a job or a title.

And that ladies and gentlemen is how Zambians staged a silent revolution and showed the world how it's done! Congratulations to President Elect Hakainde Hichilema for a well deserved victory! The Zambian people have chosen you as the 7th Republican President of Zambia. #ZambiaDecided 🇿🇲

20 years ago I reported from Zambia for BBC News (World) & did a stint in Afghanistan after the fall of Kabul. Today Zambia celebrates the peaceful transition of power and Afghanistan is on the brink of a nightmare. When will Afghans be able to control their destinies like the Zambians?

Today feels like Independence Day in Zambia. Today, the leader the Zambian people chose became the 7th Republican President of Zambia. I can't remember the last time a leader inspired so much hope, goodwill and love. Today, we the people celebrate our own victory. 🇿🇲

Simon Zukas, one of #Zambia’s independence heroes and most admired figures, has died aged 96. Low-key and lacking in self-interest, Zukas embodied a genuine commitment to progress, democracy and equality. Funeral arrangements will be announced later… diggers.news/guest-diggers/…

Part of the problem is that our tariffs (as high as we feel they are) are still not cost-effective.

Fantastic Sharon 🙌🏽👏🏽👍🏽 I am class of 95 😉😂

12 years later! #CB2009 #UniversityOfCapeTown #ConservationBiology
