Zambia: Conflict

WE need friendly countries to work with us in meeting the challenges facing the country, President Levy Mwanawasa has said

Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC) President Joseph Kabila has asked President Levy Mwanawasa to send a delegation to that country to investigate allegations of money and arms being used to destabilise Zambia. The allegations were made by former Vice President, Dr Nevers Mumba, who has since been fired from his government post.

A five-day workshop on Weapons of Mass Destruction, or WMD, was recently held in Zambia's capital Lusaka . The workshop - for Zambian security and postal workers - was organized by the U-S State Department Anti-terrorism Program.
