Two Zambian immigration officers from Kariba border post in Siavonga have been arrested by Zimbabwean security authorities at Chirundu border post after they allegedly tried to smuggle fish from that country into Zambia.
The duo is alleged to have tried to escape from that country while transporting several tonnes of fish bought from Zimbabwe.
The two named officers, a Mr. Banda and a Mr. Lunga from Kariba immigration office, were nabbed by Zimbabwe security officers who were manning Chirundu border post in the early hours of Friday.
The officers were allegedly found of possession of 3.6 tonnes of fresh fish, which they dubiously bought from that country and attempted to cross with it into Zambia.
The Zimbabwean government recently imposed a fish ban on the movement of fish from that country to its neighboring countries.
Immigration sources from both Kariba and Chirundu border posts confirmed the arrest of the two named officers to ZANIS in Siavonga today
They said the officers are currently remanded in custody in Zimbabwe’s Karoyi town and are expected to appear in court tomorrow.
The sources disclosed that the two immigration officers were arrested along with three other Zimbabwean security officers, whom they alleged connived with to assist them transport the fish from that country into Zambia.
They further said apart from arresting the two Zambian immigration and three Zimbabwean officers, the security authorities in that country also impounded the truck that was carrying the fish.
When he was contacted for a comment, Kariba border immigration Officer In Charge, Isaac Zimba, could neither confirm nor deny the arrest of his officers saying all he knew was that his officers were absent from the station.

Deal with them guys.they are potraing a bad picture of our country.We have plenty of fish pa Zed,why did the come ku Zim teti bomfweko no luse ati mu Zim no food sure.
Its like all the names mentioned in this story are from eastern province.Am I missing something?
We are dealing with fish and intergrity of our country not names or where they come from anyone can can be a crook.
This is what I was talking about Ifya kuChipata mashilu,they have finished Imbeba in their territory,they wanted to come to luapula for fish but they were ashemed coz they did not vote wisely.
so there is no hunger afterall ! as a mother of the nation i feel for these guys because zim prisons are pathetic. bar fee colour will each armour tall lay ! Meanwhile no. 7 !
Abena Chipata lol!
Mr Banda and Mr Lungu at it again.
Iam Worried is our President in the country? Hope he’s not the one in the costody coz he’s also Banda.
Hold them for a ransom , after its RB’s relatives involved.
:-?Banda please feed your hungry chaps before many get into trouble. Ninjala yabwanji kansi? Zimbabwe is on the rocks and you start getting from them sure:o Please have some mercy tapapata!
And another woman,(Easterner) Mary Mbewe, urged the government to seriously protect Zambian women from being ‘robbed of their spouses’.
but they are all corrupt, stately down to kent house.
Mrs. Mbewe said husbands had disappeared from their families and were allegedly being taken care of by the suspected Zimbabwean women.Mrs Mbewe might be talking about Banda and lungu who in Zaim police custody for smuggling fish.Dont use Zim girls here,just go search in chinoy and you will find the missing husbunds

WELL DONE ZIM SECURITY OFFICERS. ZAMBIANS ARE NOW THIEVES. THEY ARE SIMPLY INHERITING THEIR LEADERS TRAITS. “Kariba border immigration Officer In Charge, Isaac Zimba, could neither confirm nor deny the arrest of his officers saying all he knew was that his officers were absent from the station.” HE COULDN’T COZ HES PART OF THE SCUM. TEACH THEM A LESSON WHICH THEY CANNOT BE TAUGHT IN ZAMBIA. LAWS MUST BE RESPECTED.
#4 Matworld-Nice guy! WHICH GOOD PICTURE OF ZAMBIA. I THINK THOSE GOOD MORALS OF ZAMBIANS HAVE BEEN CONSIGNED TO THE ANNALS (OF HISTIRY). ZAMBIANS ARE GOOD PEOPLE WHEN IT COMES TO BEING FRIENDLY AND ACCEPTING OTHERS, WITH NO DOUBT. BUT THE RUKERS THEMSELVES HAVE INTRODUCED AND FORCED CITIZENS TO LOSE THOSE STANDARDS DUE TO POOR ECONOMIC POLICIES AND THEIR CORRUPT MINDS.
#5 CHOMA 1. ITS CONTEGIOUS. RB OCCUPIED OFFICE THROUGH THE SAME BRIBERY, STEALING, AND CORRUPT WAY. SMALL WONDER THAT THEY ARE ALL FROM RB’s farm IN EASTERN PROVINCE. ZAMBIA IS SUFFERING FROM MORAL AND INTEGRITY LEADERS DEFFICINCY.
There are two problems here; 1.These officers are corrupt and they are a product of the Zambian system where Ministers and Members of Parliament and the President gives themselves great salary raise and gives the middle figure to all the Zambian worker making K600,000.00 and below.
You pinheads what has tribe got to do with personal behavior? So all those plunders in courts today are plunders because of their natural tribal genes of being Luapulans? For your information, a Lunga is my fellow Kaonde. That shows you have no knowledge about Zambian genelogies.
that fish is contaminated with cholera
Yaba!
:O I think justice always rules, now better sources for this deal should have come from Zambia itself [-( . 😕 Remember, “Buy Zambian, **== Build Zambia”! :d/ Can’t trust any shady deals :-w , they are always bound to fail ~X( . All these years of history have always proved that. Exposure to key to the learning process :-??, but Njala for 3.6 tons >:)? Guys be realistic, this is greediness [-o
Bembas are not thieves. Pipo just like to speak bemba because it`s cool
A husband and wife and their two sons are watching TV. She looks at her husband and winks at him, he gets the message and says, “Excuse us for a few minutes boys, we’re going up to our room for a little while.”
Pretty soon one of the boys becomes curious, goes upstairs and sees the door to his parents bedroom is ajar. He peeks in for a few minutes, trots downstairs, gets his little brother and takes him up to peek into the bedroom.
“Before you look in there,” he says, “keep in mind this is the same woman who smacked our asses just for sucking our thumbs.”
A man from Texas buys a round of drinks for everyone in the bar as he announces his wife has just produced “A typical Texas baby boy weighing twenty pounds.” Congratulations and many exclamations of ‘wow!’ are heard. Two weeks later he returns to the bar. The bartender says, ‘Sir, you’re the father of the typical Texas baby that weighed twenty pounds at birth, aren’t you? How much does the baby weigh now?’ The proud father answers, ‘fifteen pounds.’ The bartender is puzzled. What happened? He already weighed twenty pounds at birth.’ The Texas father takes a slow sip from his beer, wipes his lips on his shirt sleeve, leans over to the bartender and proudly announces, ‘Had him circumcised’.

He says, “What’s your name?”
She says, “Carmen.”
He says, “That’s a nice name. Who named you, your mother?”
She says, “No, I named myself.”
He says, “Why Carmen?”
She says, “Because I like cars and I like men. What’s your name?”
He says, “Beerfu?k.”

Bob says to Lester, “You know, I reckon I’m about ready for a vacation, only this year I’m gonna do it a little different. The last few years, I took your advice as to where to go. Two years ago you said to go to Hawaii, I went to Hawaii, and Marie got pregnant. Then last year, you told me to go to the Bahamas, I went to the Bahamas, and Marie got pregnant again.” Lester says, “So what you gonna do different this year?” Bob says, “This year, I’m takin’ Marie with me…”

The limousine was taking the beautiful, raven-haired model to the airport. Halfway there, the front tire went flat. The model said, “Driver, I don’t have time to wait for road service. Can you change it yourself?” The driver said, “Sure.” He got out of the car and proceeded to change the tire, but couldn’t get the wheel cover off. The model saw him struggling and asked, “Do you want a screwdriver?” He said “Sure! But, first I have to change this tire.”
A man was just waking up from anaesthesia after surgery, and his wife was sitting by his side. His eyes fluttered open and he said, “You’re beautiful.” Then he fell asleep again. His wife had never heard him say that, so she stayed by his side. A few minutes later, his eyes fluttered open and he said, “You’re cute!” The wife was disappointed because instead of “beautiful,” it was now “cute.” She said, “What happened to ‘beautiful’?” The man replied, “The drugs are wearing off!”

i DIDNT KNOW THAT THE IMMIGRATION ALSO EMPLOYS FISH MONGERS
This story should teach Zambians one thing; that despite the suffering Zimbabwean security officers are still alert and not corrupt. One does not know what to say about the two immigration officers except to wish them a fair handling of their case.
Yaba. You dont know whether to feel angry or sad for these two chaps. Njala ya pa Zed chabe. Fyalaisova.
This guys are behaving like wizards who kill what thry wont eat. Why go to Zim where people need more food than in Zambia ~X(~X(~X(~X(
People in Zambia working under govt institutions always take things for granted nomba balamona they pressed the wrong button,they officers must be brought to book and have to suffer the consequences.how can officers behave like that when they are employed to bring down the corruption at borders to an end,they are cheap useless dealers…fish honestly awe twasebana.
**==**==**==Infact these Banda people should have been in the system for long.Personaly i dont trust these chaps who opperate at the boders,most of them are corrupt.Tiyende Pamodzi#38,you are right#35-37 is busy posting nonses & i had respect 4him to be a scientist from his name,alas,he is useless coz as scientists we dont behave wrongly,am very surprised!!!!
these guys should be punished severely because they are too corrupt.this should be an example to others.ebaleleta na cholera mu zambia and some people are busy conderming tongas of being dirty,it is these corrupt easterners that are bringing it

:)]Hello MgNaAlg5(Si4O10)3(OH! You post yo jokes somewhere else. You just exposing youself that you cannot comprehend the subject at hand.~X(The behavior of the 2 Immigration Officers is very unfortunate. Instead of ensuring that our border are not porous, the 2 Officers were busy smuggling cholera to Zambia in the form of fish from a country that has a fish ban and that is at a peak of a cholera outbreak. The Officers should punished accordingly.:((
Lungu is from Eastern province in Zambia, while Lunga is from North- Western province in Zambia or DRC. Just for your infor.
thieves will always be thieves!!!!SHAME!
Mr. Banda who? these people are confusing us it is not easy to tell who really they are talking about.some of us we are worried now.
Send us more jokes pliz. You are better than a thief. :d/:x8-|/:):o:”>:((:d:d:d
this is the most outragious story i have heard today. am actually in zim and to think that some njala stricken zedians would smuggle tons of fish from this wretched country is pathetic! but all you making funny comments, wont you shut up!
MgNaAlg5(Si4O10)3(OH you are nats ha ha ha :((:((:((:((:((:x
Give these two guys some slack please. I do not understand most comments on this thread. They are mostly way of the mark….a clear symptom of comprehension defieciency. The basic fact is that the two are not thieves or hungry as you are painting them. The two bought the fish legally. For some strange reasons the Zimbabwean authorities are claiming that the fish was bought ‘dubiously’. I dont want to second guess them but they could be more helpful if they explained what they mean. Lastly the only law which these Zambians seem to have contravened was to move fish from one place to another when there is a ban in place in that country. I guess this has something to do with cholera prevention
HEY MARTWORLD IM BACK,, HOWZIT ?DONT WORRY IT WILL BE FINE.THEY ARE JUST FRUSTRATED AND HAVE NO ONE TO BRING IT OUT ON..
IM BACK..IM STILL ON WITH MY ONE MAN PROTEST.WILL GIVE YOU MORE INFOR SOON… 😡
Hehehehe! I told you That supergal will be coming.naisa nomba so no icibeleshi ne nsele.welcome supergal =d>=d>=d>=d>=d>=d>=d>=d>
:)]Hello#55 Mbulawa .you have missed the point too. The 2 attempted to smuggle the fish from Zim to Zambia and the fact that there was a fish ban in Zim means that they broke the Zim law pertaining to fish bans. It is the illegality of their deeds that has earned them the tag of criminals. We are also the fact they are innocent until proven guilty.[-x and believe you me the Zim Authorities may neither detain as Civil or Political prisoners but as Criminals. We pray for them[-o<
its unfortunate that these two husbands,fathers,uncles who knows maybe even grandparents should find themselves in such situations,whats the main reason behind their deed
MATWORLD..I TOOK TIME TO READ ALL THE NEWS,TO MY SUPRISE THEY WERE ALL REMINDERS OF WHAT ZAMBIAN POLITICS ARE ALL ABOUT.

WHAT I MEAN ABOVE IS THAT THERE IS NO NEWS IN ZAMBIA ECO TWALABELENGELA FYE AMA JOKES,ABAKUFULWA BAFULWE

balance tribes of migration workers at Churudu, to avoid easy conyving when they go to smaggle fish & women in zim. cannot know when officers are absent from their duties at the station until they caught & reported from zim. as if that is not enough officer in charge cannot even confirm.
i totally agree with zed parrot and tiyende pamodzi..guys please lets keep the comments relative to the articles. these are real issues and not jokes. lets not be shallow please…
point of correction banda is the officer and malunga is the just an office orderly and they are back in the country after paying fines of 5000 zim dollars each.
umusebanya ubukulu, and ku zim of all countries! come on guyz, mwabashani kanshi mwebena chipata:-?
The two immigration officers deserve a strong punishment, they know and work under law even enforce itfor that matter, so do them.

The Zimbabwean imigration officers are very corrupt. They mistreated my brother who has secured a job in Zim, and came to get his family. He got temporal work permit and all the necessary docs for his vehicle but they were asking him to pay millions as tho he was importing a new vehicle. Can someone enlight me on this do we also charge people such who come to work in Zambia huge sums of money apart from the road tax.
