(LUSAKATIMES) Lubinda questions suggestion that Western Province should separate from Zambia
Lubinda questions suggestion that Western Province should separate from ZambiaTIME PUBLISHED - Friday, January 6, 2012, 2:48 pm
Former Luena Member of Parliament Charles Milupi after launching his new political party in Lusaka.
Chief Government spokesperson Given Lubinda has questioned the capacity in which Alliance for Democracy and Development (ADD) leader Charles Milupi is quoted suggesting that western province should be separated from Zambia if the Barotseland agreement of 1964 is not restored.
Mr. Lubinda says Mr. Milupi should realize that such sensitive matters can not be negotiated in such a poor style as he is suggesting.
Responding to QFM, Mr. Lubinda says it is also surprising to note that people in western province calling for the restoration of the Barotseland agreement are not agitating for secession but that such calls are coming from ordinary individuals.
He has since advised Mr. Milupi to present his suggestions to the commission looking into the Barotseland agreement, but wonders whether anyone will give him support on his secession suggestions.
