Zambia’s founding President Kenneth
Kaunda has been hospitalized at the
University Teaching Hospital (UTH) in Lusaka.
The country’s Health Minister, Chitalu Chilufya
said that Kaunda’s condition was not
serious. ‘He’s a national asset so we thought
we could do other routine medical check
ups whilst he is in our custody. Everything is
fine and he will be out soon’ he said.
93 year old Kaunda is a hero of the
liberation struggle, he ruled Zambia from
1964 to 1991, when he lost elections to the
late Frederick Chiluba.
