Through blood and sweat, Zambia shall be saved-Dr Mumba

“I’m determined through sweat and blood not to let you down the people of Zambia, am determined to pay the highest price through sweat and blood for the liberties of our people in this country. We are a free people, we got our independence in 1964 and we are not going back 50 years as a country.”

He added, “We want our freedom Mr. Sata and we want it now. We shall not allow the PF government to stifle us, we are not afraid. Take us to any jail you want and we shall not be afraiduntil the Zambians are free. Zambia shall be saved.”

Interview with MMD President Nevers Mumba

This  interview was conducted with Nevers Mumba, President of the Movement for Multiparty Democracy (MMD), on Friday 16 November 2012, exclusive to Zambia Reports.
