Who’s qualified to speak for the people of Barotseland on this issue to the Government of the Republic of Zambia? Is it everyone who feels like talking? The Barotseland Agreement 1964 is a matter of historical fact but was hidden from Zambians until citizens were given freedom to speak publicly on various issues by the Chiluba MMD government in 1992. There’s evidence that the Barotse Royal Establishment has been corresponding with various governments since Kaunda’s time on this issue. It’s therefore not a stale issue. However, there’s no need for militancy of the kind Linyungandambo wants to champion.
