Nkomo CastroZAPU: A Party Delayed But Not Derailed

Power to the People — and One Day, that Power Will Ring True {Click here or the Photo to see Press Release PDF}

ZAPU is not, intrinsically, a poor party. To label it as such is an insult — not only to the party but to the memory of its visionaries, the strength of its people, and the sacrifices made in pursuit of justice and freedom. In the early 1980s, ZAPU stood as a beacon of strategic leadership. Its investments in property, infrastructure, and human capital weren’t mere party assets — they were the foundations of a future nation-state. ZAPU was already operating as a government in exile, with systems in place that any rising nation would envy.

This was no accident. It was leadership. It was foresight. It was nation-building in its purest form.

But then came betrayal.

ZANU PF knew the threat ZAPU posed — not militarily, but structurally, intellectually, and economically. ZANU knew that a resourced ZAPU was a government-in-waiting. And so, the strategy became clear:
weaken ZAPU at its roots. Strip it of its economic base. Confiscate properties. Steal farms. Dismantle enterprises. Erase legacies. One by one, the ZAPU dominoes began to fall — not through failure, but through calculated sabotage.

And when economic sabotage was not enough, terror was unleashed.

Edgar Chagwa LunguCONDOLENCE MESSAGE: 7 June 2025

It is with profound sorrow and sadness that we received the news of the untimely passing on of former Zambian President, Edgar Chagwa Lungu, who passed away on the 5th of June in South Africa. President Lungu served as the sixth president of Zambia from January 2015 to August 2021. Under President Michael Sata, he served as Minister of Justice and Minister of Defense.

A patriotic Zambian, President Lungu served his country in various capacities and contributed to the entrenchment of democracy in Zambia. The peaceful transfer of power from President Lungu to the current President Hakainde Hichilema in 2021, restored hope for peace and stability in SADC, against the backdrop of the 2017 military coup that we witnessed in Zimbabwe.

ZAPU mourns with the people of Zambia during this period of national bereavement and reflection. Our ZPRA cadres and political refugees received immeasurable support from Zambia, under President Kenneth Kaunda, during our Second Chimurenga/Umvukela struggle for independence. We will forever be indebted to the people of Zambia for their sacrifices in support of our liberation war effort.
