On 3rd May, 2010 the team flew out from Ndola to Luano Valley in Central Province where a team of medical personnel was dispatched to carry out medical outreach activities.

After the death of Major Masumba, you courageously decided to fly the aircraft under very difficult circumstances because you were just on attachment. You flew the aircraft with the body of the deceased and other team members who were injured. Your brevity and courage, saved the team and the aircraft from further attacks from the Mailoni brothers, and is indeed worthy of special recognition.”
