‘Step up war’
One of the two black nationalist guerrilla organisations fighting a six-year-old war against the Rhodesian regime has publicly ordered its insurgents to step up violence as elections for black-majority rule in Rhodesia approached. Mr Joshua Nkomo, in a news conference at the headquarters of this Zimbabwe African People’s Union, ordered his guerrillas in neighbouring Rhodesia to “paralyse the enemy in all directions." Rhodesia, after 90 years of white domination, will go to the polls in mid-April to elect a black-majority rule i Government. — Lusaka.
