Reacting to a step taken by a teacher who beat up a catholic nun,Fr Bwalya who is also ABZ president in press statement says “Our party strongly condemns the barbaric behaviour of a school teacher at
Roma Girls Secondary School in Lusaka that savagely beat up a Catholic
nun who is head teacher of the same school.”
Fr. Bwalya adds that “the violent behaviour of the teacher which was shown on MUVI TV main news yesterday July 19, 2014 should be strongly condemned by all peace
loving Zambians. This barbaric behaviour has no place in our civilized
society”.
“We are also calling for the immediate arrest of the teacher and justice on
behalf of the innocent Catholic nun whose beating represents notorious
gender based violence. It is very shameful and disheartening for a school teacher who should teach
pupils civilized ways of solving differences to resort to violence over an
issue that could easily be settled through dialogue. As such, we are very
disappointed with this violent school teacher whose behaviour has
potential to tarnish the image of the teaching fraternity in our country.
We are particularly dismayed that the violent school teacher decided to
batter the vulnerable Catholic nun in front of MUVI TV cameras with the
obvious motive of humiliating his victim. This behaviour should be
condemned in the strongest terms possible.”
“Finally, we are calling upon leaders of congregations of Catholic nuns in
Zambia to immediately put in place measures to protect their members
from violent members of society and other social misfits.”Says Fr. Bwalya who is also ABZ president
