Zambia: Rising levels of resentment towards Zimbabweans
Zimbabweans seeking greener pastures in neighbouring Zambia - and an escape from the election violence wracking the country - are becoming increasingly concerned at the rising levels of contempt directed against them.
"We are being treated with a lot of indignation. Everywhere we go, we are being treated like lesser human beings; it's like as long as you are a Zimbabwean woman in Zambia, then you are a prostitute [sex worker], which is not the case," Patience Ndhlobvu, a Zimbabwean cross-border trader in the Zambian capital Lusaka, told IRIN.
