Zambians in UK urged to invest back in their country.

Zambia’s High Commissioner to the United Kingdom has urged Zambians in the UK to invest back in their home country and be part of transforming the nation.


In a statement, Lieutenant General Paul Mihova said Zambians living in the Diaspora should also live in unity and contribute to the country’s development.


General Mihova said it is the responsibility of Zambians both at home and abroad to work together to develop the nation and urged the diaspora to use their network of contacts in the UK, to access capital and technology that they can be used in developing the nation.
“The government has introduced a Diaspora policy to promote the participation of the Diaspora in the development of the country and by working together, Zambians can make a difference in their own country,” General Mihova said.


He stressed the need for Zambians in the Diaspora to serve as their country’s ambassadors by speaking well about Zambia.
“It is incumbent upon Zambians in the diaspora to promote Zambia in their country of residence irrespective of their political and religious beliefs,” he said.


General Mihova further called on Zambians in the UK and Ireland to come together and establish a formal structure for engagement with Government and also create a Diaspora Association that can raise capital for investment projects that can go towards the development of the country.


He was speaking when he addressed various Zambian Association groups at the ‘Greet and Meet ‘event organized by the Zambia High Commission.
