- A jovial man, musician, God fearing, a man of the people, one of Africa's great leaders...the list can go on and on for the first president of Zambia. At 89 years old now, Kenneth Kaunda is one of the living legends in Africa.

As someone born to Namibian parents taken in by Zambia during our liberation struggle I want to say thank you sir for the help you gave to liberate my country. I used to be ashamed that my birth place on my birth certificate is a camp in Zambia, I never understood why my parents didn't write down Lusaka or any city in Zambia like other parents had, now I know it is as a reminder that there were Africans out there who cared for their brothers and sisters enough to take them in, and help them attain freedom. My heart will forever be drawn to Zambia (Zambian by birth, Namibian by descend). I hope we the younger generations can learn from leaders like Dr Kenneth Kaunda (a real servant of the people) and hopefully take the dreams they had for Africa and turn them into reality.
great tribute
RIP to the last of the great founding fathers of Africa. You are reunited with your good friend Mwl Julius K. Nyerere.
Great son of Africa and the world. Rest in peace the struggle icon.
Good president, sweet names althrough nd d beautiful pple of Zambian as a whole. I love you all. 4RM NIGERIA.
Keep the knowledge of him alive for the young generation to know.
Love from India 🇮🇳 to all my African brothers and sisters!!✨❤️
You do not need to be racist the Bible says we are all brothers and sisters so let us all keep that way instead of abusing other people.
@@angellodontreadmyname830 First of all, that doesn't make any sense. I'm not mocking his race so how I'm racist? Second of all, keep your pseudo-humanism to yourself. No intelligent person takes that bullshit seriously. We're not same and that's common fact which is not about to change because of your feelings. There's absolutely nothing wrong with that. Also I wouldn't take all the bullshit in bible seriously. Theism is not rational.
@@showa546 Still your answer to his positivity makes you look bad people say platforms like youtube suck just because you have people like you writing negative comments on positive comments atleast you have the right to free opinions but I don't believe writing that comment made you feel like you are doing us a favor or did it just help your arrogance PS:This is a 14 year old trying to understand why so much bitterness is being used yet it was just a simple way sending greetings NEVER CALL ANOTHER PERSON UNEDUCATED because you do not know them neither do they know you. You embarrass Africans man just keep your arrogance to your self and don't act like HIV viruses that kill all the good left of humanity.
same to you. even though our people hate eachother but i choose not to listen.
@Mwaniki Mwaniki, agree, Indians treat Africans like garbage when they go to India, they also treat Africans this way on the continent, I live in America and trust me, they think they are superior to Blacks every where. Socially, I find them very awkward people
Lastly, have you noticed ALL of a sudden how all these foreigners want to profess their love for Africa and its culture?
They all know that there's a new Scramble for Africa and its resources, China, the U S, Russia and Europe are all trying to get ahead of each other for favor.
My concern is that the population of Africa is so young they are now very easily persuaded and impressionable. Many of them are buying into this new western/Chinese propaganda of "We Are All One people in the world"...and "Africa is for the world".
This is very dangerous for a number of reasons, the majority of people on the continent still are not prospering from the resources within each Nation.
Before Africa or any country on that continent to start saying we welcome everyone they first need to make sure that their country and its citizens are all very economically and educationally prosperous.
Jamaica in the house during covid 19 shout to my Zambian family.
"The Embassy of the United States of America joins the Zambian people and the international community in mourning the passing of His Excellency Kenneth Kaunda, the first president of the Republic of Zambia. We extend to his family and the people of Zambia our condolences. President Kaunda is known to the Zambian people as the Founding Father and Liberator of the Republic of Zambia. He was steadfast in uniting Zambia's 73 tribes through his commitment to “One Zambia, One Nation.” He advocated against discrimination of people living with HIV/AIDS and was a tireless advocate for the poor and marginalized. We honor his memory and his service to the people of Zambia and across Africa. We mourn his passing. May his soul rest in eternal peace."
This a man with a big heart for Zambia. From grade 1 to University free of charge, May the Almighty God bless him
Zambia is fortunate, KK's legacy falls like gentle showers on the land. Love from India.
Wow, am Zambian and I've never heard him described in such a beautiful way. That makes me proud.😊🇿🇲🇿🇲
Who wouldn't want a president like him.May God grant you more years Dr Kaunda.

Kaunda suit is still very popular with older people in Uganda . He is indeed an African icon!
Even in Kenya, my grandfather used to rock them. Very classy dress style.
One of the few African leaders who can only be said to have his people at heart.Wonderful president if you ask me.I miss the late Magufuli as well .
I add Thomas Sankara to your list, great leaders

I was named after this great man
Another wonderful biography of Africa's Greats! I've been rejuvenated since I stumbled on the 'Faces of Africa' series and my wish is African youths re-enact this undiluted love, passion, sense of responsibility and African national pride these great men exuded. Kudos to CGTN Africa, with love and respect from Nigeria. Long live Africa!
He was such a powerful force in Africa..powerful Soul indeed.. 🖤🙏🏿

Tres bien! et Merci d'imortaliser nos grand leaders Africain!
A humanist and a great patriot , persecuted no one , jailed no one To achieve that in Africa ....phenomenal
South Africa, Namibia and Zimbabwe in particular should always revere this leader.
A true great African leader who was very selfless. He & Julius Nyerere of Tanzania fought so much for the Freedom that we are enjoying in my country. Salute
Lots of love from South Africa
Such an Iconic leader …. he is an inspiration..... God bless him
In the 70s in Rhodesia we laughed at KK.
I'm older and wiser now and recognise him as one of Africa's very few Statesmen.
I am told by those who knew him that he was a highly agreeable person and a good golfer to boot.
An amazing soul, He has a lots of love for the people of Zambia.
Who’s from Africa and doesn’t Love Kenneth Kaunda from Kenya 🇰🇪 with Live ❤️
It was always exciting to see him . As a little girl lining up by the road side in our school uniforms waving little Zambian flags 🇿🇲, was so exciting.
He was a great leader indeed.
What a great son of our beloved Africa.
HERO. HE MADE IT HAPPEN FOR EVERY ZAMBIAN.
🇿🇲🇿🇲 One Zambia One Nation 🇿🇲🇿🇲

Dr Keneth Kaunda is a great blessing Africa. I admire him very very much. Thank KK for whatever you have done to Africans. Go well comrade President. Enjoy peaceful life in God's Heaven.
We will miss you Uncle Kenneth. Love from Zim
Until yesterday, I didn't know anything about this man, which after watching this I find staggering. What an amazing leader and man of God.
Growing up in Central Kenya, as a small boy in the early 90s, my dad would always buy my elder brother and I, Kaunda suits every Xmas holiday. RIP Mtukufu Rais Keneth Kaunda.
Always be remembered in our hearts forever.and Africa will be always remember you.
Kenneth Kaunda, a man with a big heart, everyone loved him, Zambia gained their independence in 1961, he loved being among his people his motto was do unto other as you would have them do unto you, WOW he was put in prison by the white colonization, love the music and dance, even the young men wore his style of clothing, he helped shaped his country into something wonderful.. THANKS FOR SHARING Kenneth Kaunda story, I felt as if I knew him.
Long live spirit of Comrd KK may you loving spirit continue to warm not only Zambia but whole Rhodesia and Azania at large
Met this great man times when I flew on the Presidential aircraft in the 60's. What a gentleman.
were you a rhodesian?
I met him too in the 1960s, came to Mansa, where I was teaching at Mutende. Wanted to know how many I had in my class.
WHAT PAINS ME MOST IS THAT AFRICA HAS ALL THIS LEGENDARY , WONDERFUL AMAZING LEADERS AND YET AFRICA STILL NOT PROGRESSING . WE KEEP ON SINKING STILL AND LIFE IT UNBEARABLE . EISHHHH
One of Africas Great leaders. Long Live Kaunda.
To learn of greatness is to strive for greatness. This is power.
Much humbled by your fear of God Sir, not many people at your level like to publicly acknowledge the saving Christ. The world is blessed to have a leader like you. Others around the globe will learn.
My hero Dr kenneth Kaunda love this man.

Tiende Pamozi ndi MUTIMA UMO. WE used to sing this when we were taking military training in our home TANZANIA. GOD BLESS this ICON of AFRICA.
Am a Gambian but i can still remember my song for Dr Kenneth Kaunda. I admired him so much for his knowledge and wisdom. Long live Dr K K
I love this man too. American girl.
So proud to be Zambian ,one Zambia one nation.Thank you God for the peace we continue to enjoy
I grew up in Kenya wearing the Kaunda suit but never knew the origin of the name, I do now
I'm a Ghanaian, I like Dr Kenneth Kaunda. .. I remember I read a book by Kenneth Kaunda .Zambia shall be free.
I was hearing his name on the radio when I was a kid
I never knew much of Kaunda before this but it seems he really took the wisdom of the Bible seriously and lived his life always mindful of those lessons. God Bless 🙏 him.
I spent my teenage years in the 80's during KK's time in office. Thank you for being such a great president and humanist. I pride myself of having attended Munali Secondary School, that he also attended much, much earlier. His speeches on TV though! They were loooong! I remember Frank Mutubila, reading the news on ZNBC! Ambassador to Italy, my times changed!
Ba KK halalala a man who took care of southern Africans like my parents, refugees at the time. Thank you baKaunda. RIP batata
I have been moved by the leadership qualities in this African Icon, he spent entirely his life unifying the nation and his life is prolonged for his humility, simplicity and happiness. We love and adore him in South Africa
Their is no Zambia without Kenneth kaunda that's true Father of democratic nation
Zambia is one of only few African nations that's never ruled by a corrupt government or dictatorship that is all because of Kenneth kaunda😊
Kaunda and Nyerere are beacons of Frontline States and they had a similar mindset and experiences. May our ancestor's force be with them all time.
🇿🇲 🇿🇲 Dr. Kenneth David Kaunda "KK" - What A Man !
The Greatest among the Great , Africa's Finest , Great Global Icon ! Unequalled among his peers ! 🙏🏽🇿🇲
If I can achieve even an 16th of his achievements , I would say, "I have lived a full life" . . . His death is a direct challenge to me to do and exceed my very best.
Go well the Greatest of the Sons of Africa. "Super Ken" ! Our Founding Father . . .
"One Zambia , One Nation" we shall continue with the eternal motto !
Indeed KK is a living legend. I love mother Zambia
A hero who is still strong a man with a big heart. Kenneth Kaunda. In Kenya we have his brand: Kaunda Suit
Sure Ambrose..We in Kenya still love and respect KK..

Passed away today
I love learning about African History and our great leaders who were actually for the people and advocating for the freedom of Africans. Much love from Namibia. We are Africa.
much respect to baba Kaunda! old age has blessed him!
Feeling good knowing the history behind our Kenyan Kaunda suit
Kaunda,s loots are in mzimba ,mugabes are in nsanje sobukwe in dedza and so many more
One of the greatest to ever grace Africa
Tears are dripping I can't hold it. Am Kenyan and surely never knew the origin of kaunda suit. The story is so moving and never told before. How humble and patriotic. It's unbelievable that he's stuck to one love one wife for 60yrs. Very romantic when he sings to his dear wife esp at their age
A fascinating video. If he was 88 in 2012, he must be 94 now, in 2018. I hope he lives to be 100 - and even more! I had the honour of meeting him in 1971 and from all he said, it was clear that he wanted only the best for the nation he founded. - He will always be one of the Great Sons of Africa.
David Wallace Zambians are celebrating his 95th birthday this month :-)
He is still alive
Sadly he passed away on 17 June 2021, on the age of 97
@@jasonwilliamtjandra sad day indeed, long live Kenneth Kaunda! One love from Jamaica 🇯🇲
We the people's of the world 🌎 and Zambia and Africa your home Miss you wonderful self. And your sacrifices in fighting the enemies of the people led by evil Smith
Kaunda suits my father used to dress emulating this man.. and the whole continent adored and still loves Dr Kaunda. Uganda has him at heart. 1980's he was a continental icon and still is.
You have played your part KK and it will always be remembered by all, God bless you for the whole world. A good learder is followed by others to do good until their times also comes to an end aluta continua father of Zambia.
Greetings Mr honorable Kaunda, I am a Kenyan but you really or am really inspired by kk, long live kk we honor I love your spirit, we need leaders like you in this our dark continent so that they can provide light on it, bravo!! Bravo, congrats K Kaunda
"Kaunda suit" is unique and respected fashion design in Kenya. Aluta continua against Chinese neo colonialism
Words of our great leader samora
A luta contínua a Vitória e certa by Angolan.
Really enjoyed that ..not many world leaders like him anymore lucky Zambia
Our father Dr . Kenneth kaunda may God bless you all the time Amen.
Our father who art in heaven. Call no man father.
@@cujoemblakka1041 What is he doing in heaven when he should be here on Earth raising his suffering children? SMH
We have Earthly fathers.The Our Father in Heaven.if you can't respect the father you see , how can you Respect The Father in Heaven. ? Just asking
Oh my God! I wish that Dr. Kenneth David Kaunda was my father. I really admired his legend. Long live sister country, Zambia. This is a brother from the Gambia.
Really?
Kaunda did what he could do for Africa. God bless him, Namibia is an independent country today and it was because of the contribution of Zambian under the leadership of Kaunda. They hosted us until we attain our independence, history will ab-serve him
long live to our legend - i just found out about him SIR KK TODAY- HOW SAD -FROM RSA
Woow am inspired watching this great man,,,,,big love from Southern Cameroons
He is the last man standing of the independence class of the 60s...
A great leader with a towering legacy.
Sam nujoma
I remember when I was around 12 years old watching the news and seeing him. God has blessed me to meet him many times. Thinking about this humbles me because I must take something away and use it for Zambia and Africa.
Kaunda was a great leader and a true African statesman
ii have good memories of Kennith. i was a young girl. my Father was mayor of Mufulara at the time and my uncle mayor of Ndola he came and had a meal with us a few times. My father had a great respect for him. he is a true gentleman.....i admire him greatly. there hasnt been another like him in Africa,
Its very true we need whole history about all our great African men. Like KK, Nyerere, idd Amin e.t.c
OMG! I am Kenyan and I have always known the Kaunda suit ,.... I never imagine it came from his name 🔥🔥🔥🔥
