The Civil
Society for Poverty Reduction (CSPR) Network expresses
deep sorrow at the death of our Republican President,
Dr. Levy Patrick Mwanawasa.
Dr.
Mwanawasa shall be remembered for his resilience in the
fight against poverty and his strides in achieving
participatory national development through the Poverty
Reduction Strategy Paper and the Fifth National
Development Plan for Zambia. This was further
demonstrated through the attainment of the HIPC
completion point and attention paid to poverty reducing
programs in the national budget. Under his leadership,
Zambia recorded steady economic growth which earned the
trust and praise of the international community.
Zambia
has lost a great and true Patriot in Dr. Mwanawasa. May
his soul rest in peace.
Muuka T.
Mweemba (Mr.)
CSPR
Board Chairperson
