The Man Behind the Growth of Zambia

• Dearly and widely recognized as KK, Dr. Kenneth
  Kaunda, the first president of sovereign Zambia,
  has undivided attention for the growth of the
  Zambian education system. KK is known to be the
  Godfather for the Zambian community. From
  liberating the country to gain freedom from the
  British Empire, to drafting policies for the
  overall growth of Zambia and its people, his
  support has always taken the country in stepping
  forward.
• At the age of 95, Dr. Kenneth Kaunda had been
  Zambias longest-serving president and the oldest
  living former president who has dedicated his
  life for service to his people. Being a teacher
  himself, he understood the significance of
  education at all levels. He has taken a pledge to
  revamp the Zambian education system to secure the
  bright future of Zambia.
• With the increase in population, Zambia is
  experiencing an inflated demand for competent
  experts amongst all industries. In order to meet
  the demand, the country needs to facilitate
  world-class education to its people.
