Hate is such a strong word to use on another human being. Its very unzambian to express such strong loathing over work related issues. Please tone down
snoopy doggy doggy July 23, 2012 At 2:00 pm

@ pic # 1, awe thats not right. even if you hate Lozis just keep it to yourselves. don’t display your ignorance like that. but again this is a leason all Lozis should learn, this Inutu Suba lady is daunting your image that Lozis are bad. in Livingstone she was rejected and now in Kabwe same. What kind of a leader is she?

  She is Sata’s mistress apparently!!
Nubian Princess July 23, 2012 At 2:00 pm

The simplicity and complexity of Africa. Quite a feat.
slumdog shalapungu July 23, 2012 At 2:02 pm

‘Quite’? did he mean quit or quiet, surely thats threatening someones life and some sort of crime.
- MAMBALA July 23, 2012 At 2:43 pm
  
  Its supposed to read ‘quit’… imagine a civil servant who cannot spell correctly. i wonder the type of correspondence that goes on in these offices
Distant Drums July 23, 2012 At 2:17 pm

Pic #1, Elsewhere outside Zambia to display such hate and threats of murder are enough to have someone prosecuted and convicted. Are these civil servants telling the world that their anger and hatred for that woman was fueled more by the fact that she is Lozi? Zambia! #6 Slumdog, I agree with you totally.
Roger July 23, 2012 At 2:20 pm

When is that Essa going to be locked up for reckless driving and murder!!

  Forget. He had the right of way..Kafue road is a busy road and a highway. it is not shanty roads with all these pedestrian crossing
Permanent Mukaya July 23, 2012 At 2:38 pm

This woman was in southern province right? I mean the permanent secretary. Why do they always protest? Am guessing there is an attitude problem with her amongst people. Anyway, nice images.
Kanyengambeta July 23, 2012 At 3:19 pm

Something wrong with Inutu or are these workers just communicating to each other so that she is perceived the same way wherever she goes. They call it attribution in management and then they form an opinion of you based on the previous happenings. It just takes a small wrong thing from you to trigger a big reaction from the workers. Perception by attribution.
Kwa george July 23, 2012 At 3:45 pm

THE INUTU SUBA LESSON IS THAT YOU DON’T TRANSFER INCOMPETENCES.
NOW I DON’T KNOW WHERE HER BOSS WILL MOVE THE WOUND TO.
MOVING FROM L/STONE WAS NOT SOLVING THE PROBLEM WITHIN A PERSON AS A COMMON FACTOR IN THIS CASE.
Gumu Gumu July 23, 2012 At 3:53 pm

PS Suba is one contraversial person. I remember C/servants in Southern Province once protested against her leadership style. To Essa, bravo my man. Keep da flag flying high!
Ke Nako July 23, 2012 At 7:53 pm

The First Lady has such a radiant smile! Zambian civil servants just want workshops and travels – whenever a prudent PS puts an end to this, they complain! Nothing wrong with Inutu Suba – everything wrong with Zambian civil service attitudes!
- Yazanda July 24, 2012 At 4:39 pm
  
  @13, I totally agree with you.There is nothing wrong with Suba,it is just that these civil servants want to make allowances dubiously. I wish there could be more people like Suba who know how to guard our country’s finances for the benefit for every citizen .

The ‘Last Week In Pictures’ cannot be complete without pictures showing the president’s trip abroad and meetings with foreign businessmen. He was away for nearly a week and surely it very important that we see what was cooking.

  Why don’t you go along and take your own pics………hahahahahaha, chakubaba ka!!!!!
msana wanzili July 23, 2012 At 10:00 pm

So why are we building a hospital for another country?
Yambayamba July 23, 2012 At 10:04 pm

Maybe this Inutu Suba lady suffers from a “superiority complex” that rubs other people a wrong way. How can the same woman keep getting into similar problems with her junior workers everywhere she goes? First it was in Livingstone and now Kabwe. And who is the common denominator? Inutu Suba!

The sign saying “Go back to Barotse, we hate you!” tells the whole story. I suspect Inutu has some tribal superiority attitudes that her fellow civil servants find distasteful. She needs to do some serious soul searching before some day a mob somewhere succeeds in lynching her!
Yambayamba July 23, 2012 At 10:09 pm

It is foreign aid to our impoverished neighbor…..they can’t afford such essentials on their own….hahahaha!!!!!!!

Looking good there KK and may God keep blessing you.I hope i’ll be in such good shape when i’m your age.
Kaphado July 23, 2012 At 11:36 pm

Pic 1-6, BITTERNESS against Suba.

Pic 8 , Misitala BITTERNESS against Siliya.

Pic 9, AU BITTERNESS against KK for NOT giving him honors.
Ni-Zee July 24, 2012 At 2:45 am

Pic # 5 Inutu’s expression is that of “mwachepasana” she must be a very arrogant lozi like most of them. Pic #7, Dora akota. Pic # 20, poor boy, to think that his friends are on X-boxes, Ipads, PS2s,how long does he have to stand there just to offload that heap of “lepu.”

Civil servants who cannot spell !!? Hilarious!

REAL MAN July 24, 2012 At 7:31 am

Leave Suba alone you lazy civil servants. When a tough boss ensures that you work for your money you don’t want him / her. All you are thinking of is to play cards or watch pornos on the internet. MMD syndrome.
kapandula July 24, 2012 At 9:36 am

civil servants in zambia are very lazy, they would want every time to work with a ps who would be able to orgsnise workshops them all the time so that they can accumulate allowances not the one who is financially disciplined,punctuality,hard working like inutu suba. That is why you see all those protests.
hey July 24, 2012 At 11:39 am

BUILDING A HOSPITAL IN ANOTHER COUNTRY JOB WELL DONE ZED GOVERNMENT.
Munyukunyuku Fela July 25, 2012 At 4:34 pm

Photo 14, 15 and 16, Is Lewanika now accepting to build in Western Province? Land is for Zambia and they should stop the retrogressive policy of failure to let government and individuals from developing the land! Ubututu!
lizwi July 25, 2012 At 6:38 pm

Dora should have been a role model for Zambian women. But she thought she was too powerful and above the law. What a pity…
M'bebesho July 25, 2012 At 7:08 pm

Dora is finished.

Mansana wa nzili be informed that this hospital was mmd project with the netherlands and zambia is not coughing out a penny.
