  As someone born to Namibian parents taken in by Zambia during our liberation struggle I want to say thank you sir for the help you gave to liberate my country. I used to be ashamed that my birth place on my birth certificate is a camp in Zambia, I never understood why my parents didn't write down Lusaka or any city in Zambia like other parents had, now I know it is as a reminder that there were Africans out there who cared for their brothers and sisters enough to take them in, and help them attain freedom. My heart will forever be drawn to Zambia (Zambian by birth, Namibian by descend).  I hope we the younger generations can learn from leaders like Dr Kenneth Kaunda (a real servant of the people) and hopefully take the dreams they had for Africa and turn them into reality.

  "The Embassy of the United States of America joins the Zambian people and the international community in mourning the passing of His Excellency Kenneth Kaunda, the first president of the Republic of Zambia. We extend to his family and the people of Zambia our condolences. President Kaunda is known to the Zambian people as the Founding Father and Liberator of the Republic of Zambia. He was steadfast in uniting Zambia's 73 tribes through his commitment to “One Zambia, One Nation.” He advocated against discrimination of people living with HIV/AIDS and was a tireless advocate for the poor and marginalized. We honor his memory and his service to the people of Zambia and across Africa. We mourn his passing. May his soul rest in eternal peace."

  It was always exciting to see him . As a little girl lining up by the road side in our school uniforms waving little Zambian flags 🇿🇲, was so exciting. <br>He was a great leader indeed.

  Tears are dripping I can&apos;t hold it. Am Kenyan and surely never knew the origin of kaunda suit. The story is so moving and never told before. How humble and patriotic. It&apos;s unbelievable that he&apos;s stuck to one love one wife for 60yrs. Very romantic when he sings to his dear wife esp at their age

  In the 70s in Rhodesia we laughed at KK.<br>I&apos;m older and wiser now and recognise him as one of Africa&apos;s very few Statesmen.<br>I am told by those who knew him that he was a highly agreeable person and a good golfer to boot.
