Charamba said: > Further to yesterday’s communication regarding the mourning period for the late former Zambian President Kenneth Kaunda and late Father Emmanuel Francis Ribeiro, Government wishes to advise that two overlapping mourning periods were decided as follows: > 1. Three (3) days of mourning for National Hero, late Father Emmanuel Francis Ribeiro; 2. Fourteen (14) days of national mourning for late President Kenneth Kaunda. > The 14-day mourning period for the late former Zambian President takes into account the fact that the Zambian government is yet to announce the burial programme for the late departed. > This position supersedes the one announced yesterday, Friday, 18 June 2021. > In keeping with tradition, flags must fly at half-mast. > The miscommunication is sincerely regretted. _If you found this article useful_ *Please support Pindula by forwarding to friends and groups*
