According to the Reuters (http://www.alertnet.org/thenews/newsdesk/IRIN/fc8bdf4a6e084cf66ade424cb5c20604.htm)
Mwanawasa suffered a stroke on the eve of the African Union (AU) summit in Egypt and was admitted to a private hospital on 29 June. He was flown to a clinic in Paris, the French capital, on 2 July in a semi-comatose state. Zambia's vice-president, Rupiah Banda, the acting president, described Mwanawasa's condition as stable.
This development is very sad indeed. It came at a time when Africa needed Mwanawasa's input into the ongoing saga in Zimbabwe.
I join the nation in wishing him a quick and full recovery.
