Former president sings praises of liberation hero Kenneth Kaunda's contribution to the struggle against apartheidFormer president Thabo Mbeki said the admission took place during Kaunda’s address to the now-defunct Frontline States.Former Zambian president Kenneth Kaunda made an undertaking with his Tanzanian counterpart Julius Nyerere that they would never allow a situation that would lead to their respective countries carrying a begging bowl to the IMF or World Bank.
Such was the level of honesty on the difficulties in mounting a liberation struggle by Kaunda, according to former SA president Thabo Mbeki who on Thursday delivered an inaugural memorial lecture in remembrance of the fallen liberation hero. Mbeki spoke in colourful terms about the role Kaunda played in the ANC struggle against white minority rule.
Furthermore, Kaunda was the one who had Tambo airlifted to London when he collapsed from stroke while working at the ANC offices in Lusaka in 1989.
Reality kicked in with 'KK'. It's all nice to sloganeer and issue threats but hunger at night reminded him. Look at Zim, Mugabe was issuing threats regularly and his hungry people were supporting him while running to SA.
