I was deeply saddened to learn that Shadreck Mabote, the Prime Minister of the Mukuni Chiefdom, passed away yesterday. In the brief time I knew him I believe that he was a great man who was totally dedicated to his people and respected by all who knew him. During my visit to Mukuni in September 2007 I spent many days travelling around the community with him and admired his dedication and committment.

Quite noticeably he was dearly loved and will be sadly missed by everyone. I felt very honoured to have Shadreck Mabote serving on The Butterfly Tree committee; his input was invaluable and I personally will miss him very much.
