Luanda — The Angolan ambassador to Zambia, Pedro Neto, Saturday in Livingstone, Zambia, stressed the benefits of the eight years of peace in Angola.

The diplomat was speaking during the celebrations of peace's day, 4 April, which gathered the Angolan community living in the neighbouring country.

Pedro Neto mentioned the Constitution, reconstruction of the country's infrastructures such as schools, hospitals, roads, bridges, free movement of people and goods, as well as the national reconciliation, as the peace's achievements.

In his turn, the leader of the Angolan community in Zambia, Isaías Mussole, expressed the desire to return to Angola.

To this purpose, Pedro Neto appealed to the Angolan community in Zambia to join the voluntary repatriation under the process being carried out by the two governments and the UN Refugee Agency.
