This included running the economy into the ground and at one point having more political prisoners than South Africa, but his work in the cause of African emancipation was celebrated in a poem by Kenneth Kaunda, the former president of neighboring Zambia.
The opposition Zambian newspaper, the Post, which bills itself as "Zambia's Leading Independent Newspaper," published a long and lively editorial condemning the arrest of Kaunda as "a national and international disgrace" and "a lasting shame which renders the entire Government of the Republic of Zambia utterly ludicrous."
The same newspaper reported the "disappointment and grave concern" expressed by South African President Nelson Mandela over the detention without charges on Christmas Day of the Zambian founder-president and independence hero, Kenneth Kaunda, by the current Zambian president, Frederick Chiluba, who claimed that Kaunda had been implicated in an attempted coup d'état last October.
