An 86-year-old man is demanding a British insurance company to deliver money and property.

Greenwell Kamyalile Silweya is a former police officer in Northern Rhodesia, before Zambia’s independence.

He was also part of the first people that built the Tanzania-Zambia-Malawi (TAZAMA) pipeline.

A copy of the motor insurance scheme by the Automobile Association of Rhodesia indicates some of the details.

However, what he doesn’t know is that the company closed a long time ago.

The Association was founded in 1923 by Sir Crawford Douglas-Jones who was at that time Resident Commissioner for Southern Rhodesia whom he remembered very well.

The purpose was to assist motorists and to further the cause of motoring in the country.

Through the generosity of some businessmen, the first General Meeting of the Association was held in July 1923 at Zimbabwe Ruins.

As early as 1926 the association was issuing insurance for motorists and over the years it provided guidance for motorists within in Zimbabwe, including producing a number of maps and travel guidance.

It is now known as the Automobile Association of Zimbabwe.
