President Michael Sata has called on Zambians to remain calm over the occurrences of Zambian drivers being killed in the Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC), reports Thom Shonga for Zambian Eye.
In an update on the President’s Facebook page of today (Friday, February 7), the President said he has engaged his counterpart on the Congolese side so that the security situation improves.
In the past few weeks a Zambian and Zimbabwean drivers have been shot dead by unknown elements in the DRC. This led to truck drivers boycotting entering the DRC due to security concerns.
Many trucks were marooned on the Zambian side of the Kasumbalesa border post.
President Michael Sata has assured Zambians that the government will beef up security on the Zambian side and that he will see to that the Congolese do the same.
Kabila nakula nokwiina sana umu guys uyu. Sort the mess at the border people, no need to fight but engage in dialogue.

A country governed by facebook via laptops
Is Facebook the best way of communicating with most Zambians? Let him address a news conference not this Facebook nonsense.
