On Zimbabwe's 27th independence anniversary, Dr Kaunda reminded Zimbabweans of the SADC efforts in Tanzania a few weeks ago.

"April 18, is extremely important day for Zimbabweans and indeed all of us its neighbours. It is a day when Zimbabweans should remember the moments they will never forget in their lives...the struggle for their independence. I believe as a genuine neighbour who knows what terrible things they have gone through, we must not only pray for them, but remind them of the heavy duty they have to carry," Dr Kaunda said. "To remember what they must remember to do is one of the duties...the duty to unite the nation. That is why some of us can't forget the work of the SADC."

He asked Zimbabweans to use the SADC intervention to open up a new chapter for their country.

Dr Kaunda said the region's responsibility was to encourage Zimbabweans to follow the SADC guidance.

"We look forward to hearing from them that the new roadmap has been created," he said. "All this is not to ask Zimbabweans to forget the difficulties they have gone through under colonialism and racism. We are not asking them to forget about the wrongs, which the evil forces have done to their country. We ask them to look to the future," said Dr Kaunda.
