Mutinta Mazoka praises govt.

Mutinta Mazoka, widow to late United Party  for National Development(UPND) First President Anderson Mazoka, has thanked the government for recognizing the legacy of her late husband by naming a toll plaza in Kabwe after his name.

Mrs Mazoka says naming the infrastructure after her late husband’s name Anderson Kambela Mazoka underscores the values that help to shape the country’s democracy.

Speaking after the commissioning of the Anderson Kambela Mazoka Toll Plaza in Kabwe on the Lusaka-Ndola Dual carriageway, Mrs Mazoka pointed out that her late husband believed that Zambia belonged to all its citizens regardless of tribe, religion or political affiliation.

Mrs Mazoka added that history becomes stronger when a country learns to honour all those that contributed to its journey regardless of their political affiliations.

She said the naming of the toll plaza will help people remember the values late Mr Mazoka stood for which include integrity, hard work, peaceful leadership and above all love for Zambia.

  1. Why not name it after Edith Nawakwi?
    Why not name a toll after JADEPA’s founding president?
    All these are Zambian opposition party leaders-so Why pick Mazoka?
    Because he appeals nepotistically?

  2. That is Godfrey “Ucar” Chitalu Toll Gate. Not Free Mason Kambela Mazoka Toll Gate. We honestly don’t know who Mazoka is. What did he do for the nation?

  3. It’s Ok Andy Mazoka was a really swirch on down to earth person
    Such a shame he was taken so early Absolutely nothing like the present one

  4. Mazoka was once Zambia Railways boss and Zambia Railways HQ is in Kabwe. Now you know.

    • Jairus Kalisirira the leader of an opposition party called CHAKA was also from Kabwe. Now you know.
      Gary Nkombo’s Kazen’s point is that there are many registered opposition parties why pick one of them for brandishing on a tollgate?
