Africa-Press – Mozambique. Speaking in Cabo Delgado, the Secretary General of the Association of Combatants of the National Liberation Struggle (ACLLIN) has encouraged the veterans of the national liberation struggle who are part o the local force [“militia”] to fight the terrorists without respite.
Fernando Faustino said, in the district headquarters town of Mueda on Monday afternoon, that he believed the fight against terrorism would be won, like the wars against Portuguese colonialism, against Ian Smith and in the 16-year conflict.
Emphasising that, today as yesterday, unity is the main weapon, Faustino asked the veterans of the national liberation struggle, once again with weapons in hand, to transmit to the youth of the Defence and Security their experience in the fight against what he referred to as bandits.
Before the parade, ACLLN general secretary led a meeting of veterans, during which he praised their work, especially on the combat front.
Faustino, who said he was sent by the President of the Republic, also delivered food products to reinforce the logistics of the local force.
The food and non food items were sourced in response to requests made to President Nyusi during his visit to Mueda a few days ago, General Commander of the Police of the Republic of Mozambique, Bernardino Rafael, explained.
