Kenneth Kaunda’s 96th Birthday Celebrations Suspended due to Covid-19.
CNBC AFRICA. April 28, 2020. Kenneth Kaunda has seen it all in modern Zambia since he took the reins of power at the country’s birth in 1964 and celebrated his 96th birthday on April 28. Even then, I am sure he wasn’t prepared for the crazy days when he stood trial for allegedly sabotaging the very nation he fathered. My mind went racing back to the colonial-style High Court in Lusaka, in 1998, with its Roman columns, sweeping drive and oval lawn at the front.
