He said the maps will also enable government and the traditional leadership in the country to distinguish customary land boundaries from political land boundaries.<\/p>\n<p>Mr. Hamaaundu stated that in cases were political boundaries try to encroach over customary boundaries, government will recognise boundaries contained in the reproduced 1958 chiefdom boundary maps.<\/p>\n<p>He was speaking during an engagement meeting on the reproduced 1958 boundary maps with topographic features held with some traditional leaders of Lusaka province and stakeholders in Chongwe district.<\/p>\n<p>He said substancial parts of customary land in some chiefdoms has been lost due to succession disputes adding that such differences are not good for the country.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe are aware that were there is no harmony, usually there is no development,\u201d Mr. Hamaaundu said. Mr. Hamaaundu further stated that he is pleased to note that no succession disputes have so far been recorded in Lusaka province. He urged traditional leaders in the province to help their counterparts in other parts of the country who are faced with succession wrangles.<\/p>\n<p>Speaking during the same event, Senior Chieftainess Nkomeshya Mukamambo II commended government for reproducing the boundary maps as it will help traditional leaders in the country to claim back land which has been taken away from their chiefdoms using other maps. The traditional leader called on government to also account for how much customary land has been taken away from chiefdoms<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAfter independence, we were told that the colonial masters had only 6% of the land and the rest was customary land. We want to know how much land has been taken away from us to make it state land and how much has remained. We need answers ,\u201dChieftainess Nkomeshya said.<\/p>\n<p>She said customary land which was taken away from chiefs should be given back to them. The Chieftainess said the royal establishment in her chiefdom will share the maps with her subjects and come up with a report on their views.<\/p>\n<p>Meanwhile, Chief Bundabunda said the topographic features added on the map have made boundaries clear. Chief Bundabunda stated that the maps will enable chiefs to approve the implementation of projects on land in their chiefdoms without difficulties of land wrangles interfering in the process.<\/p>\n<p><strong>For More News And Analysis About <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/zambia\">Zambia<\/a> Follow <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/\">Africa-Press<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Africa-Press &#8211; Zambia.
