Good Evening
Always nice to see the weekend pics.
Pic #9 I remember wading through pools of water in the Kamwala Market area when I was a lad over 20 yrs ago, it is appaling to see thatthe spot still floods in the rainy season.
Otherwise very good coverage LT and nice to see the way most foreigners, esp. the Chinese easily adapt to the African way of life – Africa is the home of humanity indeed.

The bishop is putting the tithes that his sheeple think are for a good cause when he is splashing on luxuries, meantime orphans and widows are suffering when in the bible they are the ones that need them. Pic 2 dude with the wine glass, It’s a long time since I saw a shiny LEXIN material which from what I remember from my uniform used to make a lot of noise from friction. Umm dora Siliya used to be thick now she is in the BBW category. Sup with the chinese sitting as if they are on pit latrines? the food must get digested really fast

Too much on the bishop: how about the Mansa man with 4 kids? We should consult him to lean his bottom power formula.

In todays Post Rev Lumba talked about men of the pulpit that have turned into professional commissioners drawing huge sums of money from various commissions. Unfortunately this man of gold Rev Banda happens to be one of them and as if these moneys are not enough he even gets an executive salary from his church while his junior pastors most probably hadly make ends meet.

What is most hypocritical is saying “widows and orphans are suffering and the guy buys an expensive cellphone” So many people, on this site and elsewhere, even some poor people have nice things. It’s not a crime. We dont even know whether the man sacrifices for the unfortunate on a frequent basis. You don’t know maybe he’s being industrious pa side to be able to buy a decent suit and a decent phone. If he were in rags you’d still have something negative to say. Where there is misappropriation or extreme excess we say something, otherwise don’ t be hypocritical criticizing christians and their leaders all the time. These days it’s almost like it’s a default response.

#24 Take it easy ..it is just a comment on a photo..are you a man of GOLD too?
Pic #7 Nice shot of Katele Kalumba. He looks healthy. It is not easy to sit like that at that age. He must be in very good physical shape and fit.
Pic #4 Congratulations my dear ..of course not to your pocket. What a blessing you have. However number of holes develop in your pockets, just feel proud and blessed for God to give you a privilege of being called SHIMPUNDU TO THE POWER OF 2. Some of us have been struggling to just get one and you get 4 in one shot!. You are the man!!!

Yeah ! very soon i will be swimming in luxuries like bishop josua banda and joe imakando.All i need is a keybord ,some pretty girls to form a praise group and finally an obama like eloquency then i will be done.I will make sure that my junior pastors will have no say so that i wont have to share my reap with too many hands except my with my lovely wife and children whom i hope to send to the states for school ,while my church members children continue going to kalingalinga and bauleni schools.I will own a fleet of cars and a big home while my members will continue coming to church using bicycles and busses laden with drunk call boys and drivers whose last encounter with soap and water only God knows.Easy dont be quick to judge me the bembas say ubomba mwibala alya mwibala.

What exactly is the “..Haiti Help initiative ” People in suits in Zambia love titles of ideas and meetings of stuff that yields “JACK”. I bet them dudes have in the past setup an initiative to help orphans on the streets.

Nice photos
than doing their job.
Its sad to see that the govt has done nothing to avoid floods during the rainy season. At times you wonder exactly what our govt is doing because most the companies are private owned and yet they are still failing to maintain whatever structures were left by KK. If you carry out a survey you will notice that our govt spends 90% of 365 days in a year

All you people going on about the phone are hypocritics. Am sure you have all at one time treated yourselves to material things while your poor relative somewhere sleeps hungry. And who says a man of God can’t have the good things in life. He’s only human mwe bantu. All this negative talk about every little thing is really becoming boring,how will Zambia develop when we have so many unconstructive minds.

A varied range of picutres. Good job LT. As for Pic# 4 Wow! Is that family going to get some sort of help or sponsorship to raise those young babies? It is going to be very expensive, but it is a priceless gift from God. I wish the family all the best. Comment 37 by Lifebuoy Striker – in a way you are right, for many pastors it is “Jesus for money”!

It’s a shame that every year we talk about the same floods. Are we going anywhere at all? Next year it will be the same story. I have seen that in our Zambian culture we always watch something when it is even to small to be regulated. Ministers pass on small pot holes which could be easily mended. When they become gorges on the road we ask for assistance from abroad.
Cant we look after ourselves?

Leave my pastors alone. We ask for help from other countries why can we be of help to others too. You cannot compare what happened in haiti to what we have here and unless you are saying all those countries sending help to Haiti have no problems of their own. You may not know what they do back home which is never published. So please leave my Bishops alone. KEEP IT UP MEN OF GOD. We will continue to give offering and tithe.
