Advocacy against Child Abuse and Gender Based Violence Executive Director Bellion Chola has welcomed President Edgar Lungu’s pronouncement that government intends to criminalize tribalism saying this will promote peace and unity.

Mr. Chola has told QFM News via telephone that once the issue of tribalism is criminalized it will reduce the number of conflicts that couple faces because of the tribal issues.

He says many families out there are fighting and refusing their children from getting married to certain tribes saying this is dividing the country.

Mr. Chola says this move will also help in uniting the nation and not the unity on papers.

He adds that the one Zambia one nation theme will finally be a reality once this law is passed.
