FIRST TIME ITS HAPPENING IN OUR LAND. NOT EVEN KENNETH KAUNDA AT HIS STRONGEST HOLD OF POWER COULD DO THIS!

Despite Archbishop Dr. Alick Banda meeting all bail conditions yesterday, he was taken to Chimbokaila and spent last night there in his Garment ✝️,  yes in his Garment which he refused to remove. He is likely to spend a couple of more days in Chimbokaila till President Hakainde Hichilema returns from abroad.

It is a power and mind game, proving a point to him that they have the power and that they’re the State controlling everything from the Executive, Judiciary and the Legislature. They want to embarrass, humiliate him, break his spirit and dent his image for standing up for the voiceless in society without fear preaching JUSTICE, EQUITY and PEACE.

“The world and those who persecute others would like us to rise and fight, to rise and give them the chance to shed more blood, but instead we come here to stay and keep watch. We all know what is at stake with this unwarranted persecution of the leaders of the Catholic Church.” Excerpt from Archbishop Ignatius Chama’s homily during the solidarity Mass for Archbishop Alick Banda yesterday at the Cathedral of the Child Jesus.
