“Let me say this, if one operator is enabled to operate freely and grow his or her own business, the economy will grow and that’s how we create employment in the country,” he said.
He said the primary players in building the nation are the bus operators including the maketeers in all markets Country wide.
Mr Gaudy said that his hope is in the new Government to protect the businesses and the Zambian people.
