Zambia reverted to "white rule" yesterday when a Cambridge-educated economist became acting president of the country after the death of the incumbent.
Guy Scott, previously the vice-president, was promoted to the top job after the demise of Michael Sata on Tuesday.
Scott, 70, became the first white leader of an African country since FW de Klerk stepped down as president of South Africa in 1994.
