Guy Scott, the first white person to rule Zambia since 1964 when the country gained its independence, and the only white president in Africa said today at Lusaka that though his skin is white, his blood is black.
He also said he has refused to grant interviews because the media keeps referring to him as a white president.
Scott, 70-year-old economist and former Zambia Agriculture Minister was also the Deputy President to the late President Sata. He became Zambia Head of State on Wednesday when Sata died in London after a brief illness.
The constitution stipulates that the president of Zambia must be a Zambian with both parents born in the country
