LT, Did you mean to say ‘Cautioned’ motorists?
‘He has since cushioned motorists not to be excited this festive period.’ Chizungu Ba LT, chizungu!
sad news indeed..it is painful to lose people unexpectedly..GOD BE WITH THE MOURNING ONES
Sad
Who said people or indeed motorists are excited during the festive period in the midst of harsh economic realitiez?
My condolences to all those who have lost loved ones and bread earners. May the good Lord comfort all those who have been affected by this tragedy.
I think it would be better to avoid trvelling at night at all costs.
He has since cushioned motorists not to be excited this festive period.
There must be one or two journalists from LT who did not do well at secondary school. Their English is very bad.
As a nation, we have failed in every area of life. Traffic enforcement is zero. For people to die like the way our people are dying shows that traffic reinforcement has failed. No speed rules. No speed limit signs. It is high time that those who cause accidents and their companies or grz departments where
the drivers come from were sued heavily. This action would help reduce over speeding driving under drugs or alcohol and help to bring sanity to our roads. Knowing Zambia, our people will sadly continue to die.
Don’t critisize ba LT for their English. It is not our mother tongue. Atase! You should try and visit this part of the developed world were almost no one gives it a f@k. As long as you get what they are trying say, what more do you want? I would suggest you go back home and teach English if you want to contribute positively to the country.
