TRIBUTE TO PROFESSOR JONES KASONSO: A FATHER IN POLITICS AND ACTIVISM*
_By John Smervin Banda_
_Political Tycoon | Independent Activist | Zambia Youth Voice_

Zambia has lost a giant.

It is with profound sadness and a heavy heart that I write to honor the life and legacy of _Professor Jones Kasonso_, whose untimely passing is a timely and disturbing loss to our nation.

To the public, Professor Kasonso was a scholar, a political analyst, and a voice of reason. To me, he was more. He was not just a mentor. _He was my father in politics and activism._

From the very beginning of our journey, Professor Kasonso walked with me. Sometimes he corrected me, sometimes he encouraged me, but he never abandoned me. He taught me that activism without principle is noise, and that politics without service is betrayal.

Through his platform, Professor Kasonso was a beacon of professional leadership. He used his voice and international articulations to foster development, promote democratic values, and create space for critical dialogue in the Zambian political landscape. He believed in building institutions, not personalities. He believed in a Zambia where the youth are not just spectators, but participants and leaders.

His counsel shaped many of us in the activist space. His intellectual rigor challenged us to think deeper. His courage challenged us to stand firmer. Even when we disagreed, he taught us to disagree with respect and with love for country.

The gap left by his departure will be deeply felt by his family, students, colleagues, political stakeholders, and the entire nation. But his work does not die with him. The seeds he planted in young leaders like myself will continue to grow.

On behalf of myself and the _Zambia Youth Voice_, I extend my heartfelt condolences to the Kasonso family. May God give you strength during this difficult time.

To Professor Kasonso: Thank you for fathering me in this space. Thank you for believing in an independent voice. Thank you for your service to Zambia.

_Rest well, Tata. We will carry the torch with integrity, courage, and purpose._

_Aluta Continua._

*"TOZALI NA BITENDA YA MOLIMO" - John Smervin Banda Matire*

*Bayekoli bakaangi officiellement Mundubile na Makebi.*
_Na: John Smervin Banda_

Bato na nga, nazali kotika molimo na nga na nzambe mikolo oyo, na motema ya pasi, nazali kotala makambo oyo esalemi na Zambia. Limbisa nga, kasi nasuki te kovanda na kimia, pona ete ezali na leçon oyo tolingi to yeba.

Na mikolo nyoso nazali koloba mokano moko: *Kopesa bato ya kokamba toli*.
Kopesa bato ezali te kaka bitumba ya politiki. *Ezali bitumba ya molimo.*
Liboso makambo eya na ba journal, yango ebandi deja na molimo.
Mokonzi oyo azali te na bato ya kosambela, akotambola na surprise.

Yango nazali koloba: *mokonzi esengeli azala na bato ya kosambela na molongo na ye.*
Te kaka ba stratège ya politiki. Te kaka ba professeur na ba diplôme ya minene.
Bango bazali na esika na bango, yango ezali malamu.
Kasi ba livre ya politiki ekoki te kotanga makambo ya molimo.
Manager ya campagne akoki kotala ba vote, kasi akoki te komona mbeka oyo batie na molili.
Professeur akoki koyeisa yo histoire, kasi akoki te kosambela pona bomoi na yo.
Mokonzi oyo azali kokende na mayele ya moto moko, na nsuka akotambola na bitumba ya molimo na carte ya papier.

Bible elobi malamu:
*"Tozali kobunda te na moto na makila, kasi na bafumu, na nguya, na bakonzi ya molili ya mokili oyo..." Ephesiens 6:12*
Tanga yango malembe. Bitumba na biso ya solo ebandi te na State House. Ebandi na mabondeli, na maboko.

Mpo na yango motema na nga ezali na pasi.
Nazali komona bato ya malamu bakati na mayele ya politiki moko, kasi bazali na mutu te ya kosambela pona bango.
Mpe na sima tozali komona moteki akota na molango oyo efungwami.
Kofukama ezali te bweakness. Kosenga Nzambe liboso ya toli ezali *mayele ya likolo*.
Mouvement ya makasi ya mokonzi ezali koyeba ete *azoki te na mutu na ye moko.*

Na suka, toboya koyeba: *Bomo ezali ya molimo koleka physique.*
Zongisa bato na yo oyo bakosambela, bakosala jeun, oyo bakoyoka Nzambe pona yo.
Pona oyo abosani yango, akokutana na mabumu oyo ba conseiller na ye bayebi te.

*Nzambe azala na bolingo na Zambia.*
Asunga libota oyo ezali na pasi, abatelaka ba innocents, mpe apesaka mokili na biso kimia.

*"Tozali kobunda te na moto na makila..."*
_To toujours kokabola pain, kopesa grâce, kosambela na bomoko_ 🙏 _Obedience ezali clé_

### *2. IN FRENCH VIBE* 🕊️
*"LE COMBAT EST SPIRITUEL" - John Smervin Banda Matire*

*On a officiellement arrêté Mundubile et Makebi.*
_Par: John Smervin Banda_

Vous savez, je suis resté en prière ces derniers jours, le cœur lourd, en regardant tout ce qui se passe en Zambie. Et pardonnez-moi, mais je ne peux plus me taire, parce qu’il y a une leçon ici. Une leçon douloureuse.

Depuis longtemps je porte un seul message partout oĂą je vais.
Diriger les gens ce n’est pas seulement un combat politique. *C’est un combat spirituel.*
Longtemps avant que le problème n’apparaisse dans les journaux, il bouge déjà dans l’esprit.
Et un leader qui ne voit pas dans l’esprit sera toujours surpris dans la chair.

C’est pourquoi je ne cesse de le dire: *un leader doit avoir des gens qui prient autour de lui.*
Pas seulement des stratèges politiques. Pas seulement des professeurs avec de grands diplômes.
Ils ont leur place, et c’est une bonne place.
Mais la littérature politique ne peut pas lire l’atmosphère spirituelle.
Un directeur de campagne peut compter les votes, mais il ne peut pas discerner un piège tendu dans l’ombre.
Un professeur peut t’enseigner l’histoire, mais il ne peut pas intercéder pour ta vie.
Et donc un leader qui s’appuie seulement sur la sagesse humaine, aussi brillante soit-elle, marche dans une guerre spirituelle avec une simple carte en papier.

La Bible le dit clairement, et ça n’a jamais été aussi vrai:
*"Car nous n’avons pas à lutter contre la chair et le sang, mais contre les dominations, contre les autorités, contre les princes de ce monde de ténèbres..." Ephésiens 6:12*
Lisez ça lentement. Nos vraies batailles ne se gagnent pas d’abord à State House ou au tribunal. Elles se gagnent à genoux, dans la prière.

Et c’est pour ça que mon cœur est lourd. J’ai vu de bons hommes s’élever avec la seule stratégie politique, sans conseiller spirituel, sans partenaires de prière. Et puis j’ai vu l’ennemi passer par cette porte ouverte.
S’agenouiller ce n’est pas une faiblesse. Chercher Dieu avant de chercher un conseil, c’est la chose la plus sage.
Le plus grand mouvement d’un leader, c’est d’admettre qu’il ne peut pas gagner ce combat avec son cerveau seul.

Alors que ceci soit une leçon: *Ne construisez pas votre vie sur la seule sagesse humaine.*
Mettez autour de vous des gens qui prient, qui jeûnent, qui entendent Dieu pour vous et qui vous avertissent avant que le piège ne se referme.
Parce qu’au final, la vie est bien plus spirituelle que physique.

*Que Dieu ait pitié de la Zambie.*
Qu’Il console chaque famille en deuil, protège les innocents, et conduise cette nation vers la paix.

*"Car nous n’avons pas à lutter contre la chair et le sang..."*
_Nous devons toujours rompre le pain, partager la grâce et prier ensemble_ 🙏 _L’obéissance est la clé_
_Je suis *John Smervin Banda*, je pleure pour la Zambie_
