Countdown to zambia's 46th independence anniversary

Preparation are underway in lusaka, zambia ...for the country's 46th independence anniversary which falls on sunday this year.All major driveways around lusaka are milling with the country's national flag spotting black,green,red and orange colours.Strapped round electric poles and trees ,the flags connotes the culmination of the national celebration which will be graced by a series of activities throughout the nation.

Right now,there are businesses running independence promotions...they've drastically dropped the prices of certain commodities to give local consumers chance to save some of their hard earned cash.They'll also be staging cultural dances within the city.

On one hand, the country's interdominion prayers in which all leaders meet to pray for the country's security and prosperity at about this time every year were held last week at the cathedraw of the holy righ here in lusaka.

The first republican president Dr kenneth kaunda attented the prayer service. And so did his predecessor Dr fredrick chiluba.At the end of the service the former presidents greeted each other with exceptional smiles.Look,we mighty have upset each other in the past,the two leaders subtly snurled at each other in silence. But let's just bury the hatchet for the well being of our nation and its God-fearing people.

Sure,that's the best thing any two rivals can do...forget about their differences and embrace what is good. Hmmm!

Well,what are you going to munch on this great day? You've better asked...You see,till now none of the chefs have dared to disclose the secret menu. Nontheless,here is a sneak peek at what freedom fighters and the like ate on independce day 46 years ago.A huge buffalo was consumed on that historical day. The buffalo was hunted by Mr Teddy Soddard.You can see its remains , a huge dark-curled horn, at lusaka national museum situatetd near the Freedom Statue,a stately place for national celebrations such labour day or independence day.You're free to call at lusaka national museum to see the buffalo horns and many antiquated pieces of art any time.
