Our willingness to renounce a foreign nationality does not mean we are tribalists. We are not. In fact we have never been victims of a tribal system, but we are agitating for our human rights. Building our country, Barotseland, is our responsibility and not the government of Zambia’s. This is the reason Zambia never bothered developing it in almost half a century. It was not their responsibility to do so in the first place. It is our duty, we who truly belong there. It is the reason why someone who carries the nationality "Barotzish" cannot be president of Zambia because his nationality is "Barotzish" and not Zambian. That is why Silozi cannot be spoken on the streets of Lusaka or Copperbelt because it is considered as a foreign language and not one of the Zambian languages. It is also the reason that, the noble citizens of Barotseland who contributed to the well being of Zambia are not honoured. King Sir Mwanawina III, KBE who signed for the independence of Zambia is not even known in Zambian history. Nalumino Mundia a Lozi noble who spent 21 days without food because of his dear love for Zambians not even recognized. For those Malozi who think they are Zambians by assimilation, it is now time to wake up, open your eyes and start thinking of going back to develop our home where we truly belong, than wishing to be in other people’s countries. Let us secure and build our country so that its beautiful for us. It is our duty to secure, defend and establish the rightful status of Barotseland, because if we fail to do so God will judge us harshly for failing to cherish our land which was secured for us by our fore-fathers. Malozi we did not choose to be who and what we are, but it pleased God who created all things to also create us and so we shall be.
