African leaders gathered in Zambia yesterday for a state memorial service for Kenneth Kaunda, the nation s founding President and champion of African nationalism.
The service was held at the National Heroes Stadium in the capital, Lusaka, where the leaders paid tributes to the late leader who was considered as one of the last generation of African leaders who fought colonial rule and became President after Zambia gained its independence in 1964 and backed nationalist movements that fought to bring majority rule to the southern African states of Angola, Mozambique, Namibia, South Africa and Zimbabwe.

Lusaka, Zambia - Mourners waving white handkerchiefs, Kenneth Kaunda s trademark symbol, paid tribute Friday at a memorial service for Zambia s first president, who died last month aged 97, as VIPs hailed him as one of southern Africa s great statesmen.
Neatly distanced in compliance with Covid rules, scores of Zambians stood on the terraces of the National Heroes Stadium in Lusaka, swaying to dirges and solemn music played by a military band.
A hero of the struggle against white-minority rule, Kaunda died on June 17 at a military hospital where he had been admitted with pneumonia.
