Stop cursing me
Thanks
Mushota you are a first class stupid **** and a satanist,you wanted more blood to drink,this time you lose God will punish you.Death is death even when you lose a small child.
iwe ka Mushota, much as you often exhibit a lot of bupuba, assess the situation before vomiting your cruelty. in case unaibala, this is africa n we respect the dead. don’t behave as if you don’t mind dying lest your own words catch up with. look at the negative votes you have and realise kuti nivaupuba vamene wakamba!
What goes around comes around.Remember you’re not God and this could very easily have been your poor charcoal black arse.The day you get hurt and die we’ll just as easily shrug it off as “nobody died”
Shame on you Mushota. Every life is precious.Though its a pity he wasover speeding. May His Soul rest in Peace.
The bad thing with we Zambians is that we do not talk when we are in a bus and the driver is cruising like a mental patinent. We are all quite. Last weekend i personally was coming from Lusaka in my Nissany Sunny and was hammering 130km going to Mazabuka. To my surprise, a driver on one of the big buses going to Livinstone wanted to show case with me. I reported the chap to RTSA on the roadblock after turn pan. But passengers in that bus never complained. Zambians are very docile persons and they don’t complain.
I AGREE WITH YOU 100%
THEY VERY DOCILE AND DON’T USE THEIR BRAINS 100%. TYPICAL OF BLACKS!!!!
Amen you are now talking, this is one thing I mostly miss on Zambians they don’t want to open their mouth if they see wrong, people end up finding themselves in mob-justice activities because they just can’t stand their ground if you say something ati you are rude/insulting. Let do *sapere aude* once a while
to around katete at 0630 means he left lusaka around 01hrs and ws dozing before hitting the bus careless driving
Am sure some ***** will try to politicize this incident.
Some id-ot will sure try to gain political millage out of this.
So you already know its about PF sacrificing before we remind you?
Nearly all accidents in Zambia are caused by ‘driver lost control of the vehicle’. Does this mean that the drivers are never at all times handling their vehicles in a responsible way? If so, why? Is it lack of discipline or the use of driving licenses corruptly acquired?
wow scarey moments something has to be done about these traffic accidents.
Very Sad!
Very sad indeed. MHSRIP
It is just no longedr acceptable to have two way traffic roads linking any of Zambia’s cities and towns. Time to upgrade tp dual carrige!
Does that street even deserve to be called ‘Great’ East Road? Only in Zambia! Was there no white farmer in the vicinity to pin the accident on ? Or are the Zambia Patriotic Force still looking?
Dual carriageways alone will not sort this problem, drivers need to be qualified to drive on these roads. Stop selling drivers licences please.
If the road in the picture is great east road with no road markings i dont see how accidents can be avoided
Its indeed sad. MHSRIP
Mushota.imagine the dead is some clos e to you. Think about this.
I hope you reflect, and find peasece withlin yourslf.God bless you.
Those who have never lost their beloved ones before think death is something you can smile and joke about. Ala ba Mushota muli chipuba tamwakwata mano. May the Soul of the late driver rest in peace and may God comfort his family during this time of grief.
We cut corners to earn undeserved drivers licenses,we cut corners to fill our parties with defectors,we cut corners on Lsk cleanliness by allowing street vending for political gain,we cut corners as policemen to earn illegal bribes.The day we stop cutting corners is the day zed will be better.These accidents are our own making.
Kwena ni high impact, check the ka bus.
Jeez.
wamwalila mu wemba, uutukila kuni?
Iwe Mushota walepa kumyemu dont you know that death is just like war there never a good war, be it last for a minute. Death does not be it singular nor multitude it is always sad when one dies.
are you a pagan mushota?
Mushota needs to have his hinde parts whooped! …Have respect for the dead & think before you run your mouth.
Too bad
Mushota need i say more. Pathetic Moron
For sure Mushota you should agree that your statement is wrong, in your statements, u will only appreciate an accident if there are lot who have died, You are centainly a ****, stanyoko, cos the person involved is my relation, *****, you should think before you push the feaces of rubbish, Jesus says somewhere in the bible, where there is one there is a lot. A one lost faithful soul to God is better than 100 unfaithfully souls.
Mushota next time think before you utter. Instead of thanking God for saving those who were, u just thought of saying rubbish.
Son of a witch!!!!!!!!!!!!
Mushota barren, children if any your wife got them from some other man, am very sure, go and take a checkup and see if your stuff can produce anything, i doubt so, over death no one is a champion, dust we were made, and dust we shall return, Mushota let me assure you one thing in life, that will happen to everyone of us, no champion, If you, Mushota have been struggling to get a plot, and might die without any plot to come up with a house, sure but not this one, whether you are rich, poor, short, tall, intelligent, dull, of a **** like you, – A GRAVE IS A MUST – money or no money it is waiting for you one day, the more you burry other people the nearer your days. So speak with respect because one day you shall be asked to dance to the same tune in another way.
DIE WELL TOO. DEVIL
SURELY MUSHOTA SHOULD APOLOGISE FOR WHAT HE SAID. IT IS TOO BAD TO SAY LIKE THAT.WHAT IF THE DEAD PERSON TURNS OUT TO BE YOUR RELATIVE!!!!!!!
