Who is benefiting from our diamond and gold

Dear editor
Who is benefiting from our diamond and gold in Zambezi, North Western Province.

We as a nation are aware that we have rich reserves of these two precious minerals where government has even put the area under 24 hours militia guard.

Yet we are not hearing of any proceeds much as we know that surely, government can’t just secure it at a cost without extraction.

Government should stop duping us into copper statements only while they do dubious deals with these other minerals.

Please our leaders own up and serve your nation diligently.
