“WHEREBY, BOTH OF YOU PARTICIPATED IN THE STRUGGLE FOR INDEPENDENCE. YOU USED TO COOK FOR FREEDOM FIGHTERS DURING THEIR MEETINGS AND RALLIES. WHEREBY, IN 1960 WHEN THE FIRST UNITED NATIONAL INDEPENDENCE PARTY (UNIP) BRANCH WAS FORMED IN CHAVUMA, YOUR HOME WAS USED AS THE FIRST OFFICE. LATER THE OFFICE WAS MOVED TO THE LOCAL WELFARE CENTRE. UNIP HELD MEETINGS AT MIDNIGHT BOTH AT YOUR HOUSE AND OTHER VENUES IN ORDER TO KEEP THE MEETINGS SECRET FROM THE COLONIAL GOVERNMENT. YOU OFFERED SEVERAL ITEMS SUCH AS BLANKETS, CANDLES, SOAP, GROCERIES AND OTHER NECESSITIES FROM YOUR SHOP TO ACCOMMODATE AND FEED FREEDOM FIGHTERS VISITING CHAVUMA. YOUR CONTRIBUTION TOWARDS THE STRUGGLE FOR ZAMBIA’S INDEPENDENCE IS WORTHY OF SPECIAL COMMENDATION.”
