Africa-Press – Mozambique. <\/strong><\/span>Two former Front of Liberation of Mozambique armed struggle bases in Niassa \u2013 the Ngungunhane base in Lago district and the Central bases, in Mavago district \u2013 will be restored and improved, TVM reports.<\/p>\n

The measure aims to commemorate the history of the national liberation struggle celebrated by local veterans, adds the same source.<\/p>\n

Meanwhile, Not\u00edcias reports that veterans of the national liberation struggle based in Lago district, Niassa province, have proposed to the government the restoration of the former military bases from which the strategies to defeat the troops of the Portuguese colonial army were deployed.<\/p>\n

The idea of upgrading these facilities, considered part of the historical and cultural heritage of Mozambique, aims to boost the reputation of these places, passing on their testimony to younger generations and assuring the continuity of collective memory.<\/p>\n

The plan is also intended to immortalize the history of the Frente de Liberta\u00e7\u00e3o de Mo\u00e7ambique (FRELIMO), the nationalist movement that led the libertarian struggle that culminated in the defeat of Portuguese colonial rule and the proclamation of independence in 1975, after ten years of struggle.<\/p>\n

The restoration proposed by veterans in Lago would consist in the reconstruction of the existing improvements in the military bases erected during the process of the national liberation struggle.<\/p>\n

In addition, it will be necessary to build or rebuild these infrastructures to accommodate activities of tourist and cultural interest, in order to attract people who want to deepen their knowledge about the armed struggle which started on September 25, 1964, as well as giving veterans a leading role as guides.<\/p>\n

Sams\u00e3o Mazula, a veteran of the national liberation struggle, told the Minister of Combatants, Josefina Mpelo, who recently visited Sanga and Lago districts, that the restoration of former military bases should be seen as an activity with the potential to contribute to the state budget through earnings from cultural heritage tourism.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe history of Frelimo, as a nationalist movement, must be widely disseminated so that Mozambicans, in general, and young people, in particular, are able to obtain knowledge about its course,\u201d Mazula said.<\/p>\n

Former Frelimo military bases in Niassa are located far from any residential neighbourhoods, which makes work on their preservation difficult, Mazula said, adding that restoration could create jobs for young people.<\/p>\n

Minister Mpelo welcomed the veterans\u2019 initiative, assuring them that her department had plans for maintenance at the Ngungunhane and M\u2019saize bases in Lago and Mavago districts respectively.<\/p>\n

Josefina Mpelo was visiting Niassa province to monitor the implementation of the government\u2019s Five-Year Program and its Economic and Social Plan.<\/p>\n

The main concerns presented by the national liberation veterans were obtaining information on stage of progress in the process of fixing pensions and the payment of funeral allowances, among other benefits.<\/p>\n
