This sad<\/p>\n<p>development comes ata time when the country is frantivally trying to address inereasing cases of Gender Based Violence (GBV). NGOCC abhors GBV of any form, regardless of the perpetrator because it is our belief that<\/p>\n<p>nen and women are equal before the lav. Furthermore, GBV is not only a human rights violation but is a retrogressive scourge that is detrimental to human and ultimately, national<\/p>\n<p>developr pacts are mostly irreversible and destructive. Therefore, we take this opportunity to urge the nation and all stakeholders to actively do their part in curbing GBV at<\/p>\n<p>all levels. It is now clear that any person is a potential victim or perpetrator of GBV and therefore, we urge all members of society to take a proactive approach to seek help and pursue dialogue in<\/p>\n<p>resolving differences. Finally, we call upon Zambia Police to regulate the access and use of firearms and we would like to urge the authorities to thoroughly investigate the matter surrounding the death of Lt Gen. Shikapwasha and ensure that justice prevails,<\/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.
