Kafwaya died for Zambia’s second Independence — Mwila

TONSE-PAMODZI Alliance member Davis Mwila has described the late Mutotwe Kafwaya as a freedom fighter who died fighting for Zambia’s “second Independence.”

Mwila says Kafwaya was an intelligent Parliamentarian who meaningfully contributed to national discourse and played a valuable role in the opposition movement.

Speaking after Kafwaya’s funeral church service was cancelled amid what appears to be a looming impasse between Government and the family over the state in which the deceased’s remains were found, Mwila said Kafwaya’s contribution to the opposition movement was significant.

“He helped the movement. He was part of Tonse and was part of the group that negotiated for the coming together of Tonse and Pamodzi Alliance. His contributions were very valuable
we are going to miss him,” Mwila said.

Mwila said Kafwaya should be remembered as a freedom fighter who sacrificed his life in the pursuit of what he described as Zambia’s second Independence.

“Kafwaya has died as a freedom fighter. The people of Zambia wanted the second Independence and he was one of the people who fought for it, but unfortunately, he died,” he said.
