LUSAKA: Zambia's home affairs minister Ronnie Shikapwasha, has called on Zambians to intensify their prayers so God can speed President Levy Mwanawasa's recovery.

He said that the information he has received indicates that the president's condition has greatly improved. The information was obtained from the First Lady, Maureen Mwanawasa and the Zambian embassy staff in France. Officiating at a Northern Baptist Church prayer meeting held at Fiwale Mission near Ndola, Lt Gen Shikapwasha, urged Zambians to appreciate that God has answered their prayers.

He said that it takes a long time for a person who has suffered a stroke to recover, adding that there is no reason to put pressure on the president.
