Sinazongwe District Commssioner, Laiven Apuleni, has appealed to well-wishers to assist a Seven-year-old boy who was severely burnt in an inferno.
The boy identified as, Makenze Siamuntu, had his face severely burnt in an incident
that occurred two years ago in Sinakumbi village in Senior Chief Mweemba area.
The boy was burnt when he fell into the fire whilst he was playing with his friends
in 2005.
Mr. Apuleni said the boy requires plastic surgery though he would not be able to
have his sight restored due to the severity of the burns on his face.
Sinazongwe District Assistant Social Welfare Officer, Emmanuel Chintu, said the
victim’s father, Frank Siamuntu, was unable to take the child for medical reviews at
the University Teaching Hospital, UTH, due to financial constraints.
