Desertification of Western province

Editor,

Please let me remain unknown. While the whole world is trying to protect the natural forests, the Zambian government has continued to issue licenses to loggers to ensure a systematic desertification of Barotseland. I found this truck laden with logs parked at Nalusanga gate in Mumbwa district destined for Lusaka and who knows perhaps even beyond.

My appeal to the government is that, they should stop this business forth with because it is endangering the lives of our people. May I also request that the BRE steps in to stop this life threatening activity which has continued to impoverish the people who through generations have looked after these trees.

PLEASE SAVE OUR BAROTSELAND AND SAVE OUR WORLD.
