Luanda – The Angolan ambassador to Zambia, Azevedo Francisco, this weekend analysed, with leaders of the various regions of the Angolan community residing in Kitwe, Copperbelt province, issues linked to the process of registration and issuing of Identity Cards to national citizens.
According to a note, made available to Angop, during the meeting the ambassador informed that the Angolan State intends to know how many citizens reside abroad and to attribute documentation, aiming at ensuring their effective citizenship and the safeguard of their rights.
“We need numbers, because only in this way we will be able to prove that we are, in fact, the second largest community in the diaspora, after the DRC,” he stressed.
On the occasion, the head of the Angolan community in Kitwe, Felix Chipoia, requested logistical support from the embassy during the registration process.
