  6. morning all!!

    Yaba! What a week. Closures,retirements and convictions all in the same week. What next? I predict Teta talking!! 😕

  8. RB??? This guy should have been ward councellor or something not President of such an important republic.
    Renard looks clueless!
    Yaba Singogo, the past always catches up.
    ZA, sad state of affairs, it has truly been an eventful week.

    RB hahahahaha….bana kunama iwe!

  9. Ba Moze
    Where wenze you? Akale Mudala walelaya when going some where now what happened? I got scared ati the chaps have kidnapped you.

    Star Baby

    How are you dear?

  21. Matworld, Baby C

    Hi pals!! Am ok. Just had to rush to Chipata to see my family. Napeza ati ba chief Justice line! Yaba. Bapole fast.
    Chingaipe ku DEC, Yazanda! Kwena!!

  23. L.T don’t take it for granted that we shall all recognize this coach for Zambia…. what is his name again is it Marcha Chilemena ? or this one who is the only footballer in parliament……Please give life to the pictures by telling the readers the people in pictures like you have done to the rest of the pictures.

  24. Baby C

    Ati Mrs Ba shani?? Yashani iyo? That one is an imposter. Olo nikufuna chikwati! Tefyo mwandi. You just wake up one morning ati i’m Mrs Ba Moze! Alaa!!

  27. Goodmorning Jamaco
    Goodmorning Matworld
    Goodmorning Baby C
    Goodmorning Ba Moze, LEON, Luapula Fish, Zimandola & the others

    Muli shaaani bonse????:)

  29. How come there is Chinese on the ribbons Nyama Soya and the gang have on their jackets? do we have Chinese in our schools now? Who the hell is going to read what is written on them and get a meaning apart from the choncholiz them selves.

  30. Wow, i see that this site has regular visitors.Perhaps i should become loyal visitor aswell and keep up with wonderful peeps all over the world. I have a dream that all Zambians living abroad will go back home and make it a better place. Take back the knowledge, experience, exposure, and most importantly, get rid of that Government…And Yes We Can!

  34. Nine Chale, chisuma bakalamba shani ulupwo ko. Thanks for your greetings mwandini. We miss you on the blog when you are so quiet.

  37. Matworld, ba moze, Chale, tionge and the rest…

    Check pix #4 closely and tell me what you see….something is very wrong!!!!!!

  38. Matworld
    Whats happening to Kaizer Chiefs ,Orlando Pirates and Sundowns? After spending huge sums of money on transfers they are performing below expectations.Moderate spenders like Ajax Cape town and Supersport united are holding the top slot on the league table.I would still love to watch the people’s team ‘Bloemfotein Celttic’sad that they are in the relegation waters.The standard of the PSL is of great concern to southern african football and Zambia in particular.

  42. Eya mukwai bane, ine ndifye bwino, na ba lupwa bonse.

    Baby C, what’s wrong with pic #4 except that it’s not that clear?

  46. Luapula Fish

    How are you?
    Hey!I think southern africa we just have to say good bye to football.

    Baby C

    I can see one person and a baboon.Am I right?

  47. Iwe fless fiss from Luapula #38, we are talking about the pictures here, have you seem ba Orlando nangu ba Pirates muma picture? Learn to discuss issues at hand not just yep yep yep ala.

  59. Ba LT we request you give us this week in picture on saturday are 20:00 zambian time coz like that you will have covered the all week. You are too fast now what about the pics from the big house for the officail opening of more stealing? Let the week finish.

  60. RB is smart to partner with China during this global economic recession. All major economies are in recession. China’s growth has just slumped from about 10% (approximation) to 9%. Though just a slight drop, China’s economy is still growing.

    China has just beaten Germany and is now the worlds third largest economy. It will soon beat Japan as Japan is in a recession. China also boasts having the worlds largest USD reserves and they plan to use them during this time when world prices of commodities used in infrastructure development are low.

    If these economic zones will produce semi-finished and finished goods that will be consumed by the Chinese population, Zambia stands to benefit [tbc

  62. Guten Morgen Meister Jamaco…brav weiterarbeiten & nicht die ganze Zeit bloggen!:d

    Ba LEON, ndabezita Nkhosi…or something like that. How’s the weather down south?

    Baby C, spill the beans…I still don’t see what you see in pic 4.

  64. cont from #60]

    greatly. The US govt and many EU govts have been living beyond their means. They don’t have as large USD reserves as does China. To trade with China so as to grab these reserves will be great for Zambia.

    In short, it would be economic suicide to not trade with China during this global recession.

    Putting my 2 cents on the whole Lusaka Sub-economic zone which I support by the way (not that it matters).

  66. yes Baby C I can’t see it myself. Ati bwanji ba Chale? Does anyone know who that muzungu is with no captions?

  67. Anybody know which part of Lusaka is the sub-economic zone I want to set up a business there and get tax breaks 😕

  69. ZIMANDOLA ONE
    How do you expect me to discuss those pictures ? It is what it it is and no one can change that image at the moment. If you have faith in the current administration,well go ahead and discuss the photos lol.

    Ba Moze
    Its very sad that Pirates ld by the great Irvin Khoza are failing to dominet in the local legue and African CAF championship.Hopefully things will be fine next season.
    Matworld
    We cannot say goodby to soccer ,something ought to be done.Improve soccer administration and talent scouting

  79. Yes Sony Eric my brother, nili che.

    To answer your question in #66, that’s Renard Herve, our national teams’s trainer. 🙂

  81. Goodmorning all, it hurts to miss on the blog.
    # 30 Miss Daisy welcome aboard and yes it would be nice to have Zambians in diaspora back. No Daisy when you talk about you guys bringing knowledge, experience and exposure to make this place a better place, uleta mapolitics… its not that the people back here aint doing anything or are dunderheads. We are exposured too to an extent where i can go to the USA, UK or any other place just for a holiday and not to live. they same way you manage to visit home. For some of us, Zambia i place to be.

  82. Iwe Nina Chale !! I have Two PCs on my Desk at work!! How do you expect me to avoid LT!!

    Today I am just teaching a new Collegue some Basics!! So while he works I just see if he is doing everthing right!! Am the Boss :)>-

    Bazungu being taught bei a Zambian!! 😕 Did you ever think we would bring it this far?? Kutotelafye Lesa Iwe!!

    :-w

  84. Thanks Chale I’m out of touch, I should have known, he looks exactly like a French football coach. Anyone know where the Lusaka economic sub-zone is?

  85. #73 LEON thanks for teaching me a bit of Zulu…I just love that language. It has so much majestic Royalty in it. Please keep vibes flowing.

  91. Verbatim on Pic #7:

    Bwalya: Sorry bamudala. We tried our best.

    Singogo: Mwaiche, sure naingila! Awe, cant you do something?
    Bwalya: Its a bit tricky bamudala. Munaba maningi. Mweka ama air conditioner yabili?

    Singogo: You cant appeal mwaiche? Olo ukubalishamo?

    Bwalya: Mukwete shinga?

  94. Matworld,Ba Moze,Baby C,Nine Chale,Rashid,Jamaco and all gud mornin.Naba nkalipila Ba Matworld ati i havent greeted u am sorry.

  95. Is it justified to deny a three year old Adolf Hitler Campbell a birth day cake by the New Jersey Supermarket (ShopRite)?

  102. # 82 Ba Jamaco filachitika – you remind me of a visit to Cape Town where we visited this resturant at the Waterfront. this colleague would call this white waiter and make his order and would go like “excuse me, could i pleace have a glass of water, quick!” and as soon as he returns or and some milk shake”…. and would now say to us “do you see how the run around?”

  109. #104 Baby C thanks for letting me know, dear. I always had this feeling that you are pretty. My instincts can’t lie to me…:)

  113. If LT is feeding us with old stories, what do you expect? We are chatting to kill time while waiting for today’s headlines…wa gwila???

  115. #112 Zoe

    Some male characters here have female names, like Ba Maureen. I’m willing to bet € 100 that’s a HE!

    [chorus]
    here comes santa clause

    right down santa clause lane

    pullin on the reins

    children- b-bells are b-bells are ringing
    children singing
    santa clause comes to town

    [Ludacris verse 1]
    Yeah

    Nine Chale You are right. Ba maureen and lady Chiza’s legs nibamuna

  136. Ba Moze,

    nalimona kalefye! He is the one who sent Chewe packing! Chewe vowed that, never will he show his face on LT again!!! never!

  138. Jamaco, what can we do to make our lovely ladies Zoe & Baby C feel nice?
    Maybe send them something nice on their birthdays? It’s just in my nature to treat the ladies good.:)

  139. Nine Chale, Zoe, Baby C, Matworld, Ba Moze, Sony Ericsson Phiri, Sister, Rashid mulishani bonse?

    Loving the pictures. For once I thought Savimbi was still alive.

  140. No! Ba Maurine and Chiza’s Legs are female bloggers only that their character is typically male.They are ruff ,turf and not soft spoken.It is actually strange when you get involved with such babes ,their hearts have survived the culteral intution and live isolated lives to command whats suites them.

  153. # 138. Nine Chale

    You are right!! Let us make our Zambian Ladys happy!!

    Get the Details from Zoe & Baby C so that we can send them something on their respective bdays!!

    Good thought!

  154. #144 Zoe

    I have just seen it!Akalijo eko pa LT! but teti nkana ka something nice.

    Nine Chale

    Do that quick or can i send you my account #???? :d

    Sister #149

    Atleast, that makes two of us.Boring indeed!

  155. Jamaco, Nine Chale

    Its not fair :((!!! December is just too far!!!! where were you on 31st December 2008???? do a ka belated birthyday in my case , i beg!!!!

  156. Jamaco and Nine Chale
    Before you can shower Baby C and Zoe with presents on their birthdays make sure you start with the girls next door.
    I 100 percent agree with you ,as gentlemen its jst good to treat the ladies the way they are supposed to be treated.

  161. #130 Baby C greetings, thanks and keep well.

    #134 Jamaco, I am simply helping us all to respect each others’ views and opininons. We needn’t insult some fellow human being just because s/he holds a different opinion than ourselves. We can disagree, but move together as Zambians and World Citizens. I particularly liked late former President Mwanawasa, my fellow Tonga as he was Lenje, for showing that what is good is not to treat your perceived enermies as people who MUST die at an opportunity, but as partners in development on this Earth.

    #137 Sony Ericsson Phiri, i respect your opinion “I think Maestro heehehe is a little lost upstairs”, but take extra care.

    LT 2008 Award Winner.

  163. Baby C my sis, i guess you re good at spoting the missing bits in pictures…if you managed to spot what others could’nt see.^:)^

  164. 136. your flag Baby C, on Chewe, 29 years old, do not worry much as I asked the brother to come back if wherever he has gone things do not work for him like the prodigal son of the Holy Bible record as our, LT bloggers, arms – and LT itself’s – are open to receive him joyously at his appearance.

    So, let us give Chewe chance to reflect on his past and new would-be activities in life and on LT.

    I am positive he will come round a better individual when he shall re-appear.

    Impressive enough, insults have dramatically reduced on LT in the recent days.

    LT 2008 Award Winner. =; for Zambia in 2011.

  171. Maestro Hhehhehhehhe, Banakupasa chikombe bwanji ba LT? Please this year,you should also campain for Spectater because the brother is very rear now.

  175. @ Matworld, ola,ninkona! thanks for welcoming me, i will visit often and tap the brains.

    @ Nine Chale, thank you for joining me in the big dream, like IBM says, i hope soon we will “stop talking and start doing”….I will do whatever i can do for Zed because parents/family/friends are still there.

    @ Chalo Chesu, thank you aswell, i didnt mean it in a bad way (looking down on anybody)when i said all of us in the diaspora should go back home and make it a better place. look at the bigger picture, yes all our brothers and sis at home can improve zed if they put their mind to it but wouldnt it even be better if all the skills lost, knowledge and exposure went back and sat on the board(Gov)

    168. your flag Luapula Fish

    171. your flag Rashid Jones

    171. your flag Rashid Jones

    Thanks you all for everything. On winning, it was a win of being number one most blogger on LT and nothing much else. About, Chewe, I related to him a record from the Holy Scriptures on Jesus Christ with 2 thieves on the cross of which I chose to be like the one who asked for God, the Creator, to remember me in his coming kingdom for I have robbed in the past and I seek a better life now. Not much else in between and the brother Chewe claimed for him to worship God properly he’d rather stay away from LT so he wont sin.

  186. Please imwe bloggers,where will UNIP go with the likes of Tilyenji?

    He has an abnormal secretion of ACETYLCHOLINE and therefore very rigid in thinking.

    UNIP is dead.

  187. #182. your flag Rashid Jones, exactly. Keep well. “Zambia shall be saved” in the words of Mr/Dr Nervous Mumba if we all trust and believe truly in God.

  194. One wonders wat you pipo do.
    I gree with my friend who said some of you watch LT instead of TV.
    Anyway its all good.
    I know its not my Biz, but just being human.

  196. an incident just happened at STANCHART Northend Branch, a lady who is known to be prestigious has just performed a scene. Apparently her car started to move in the parking lobby, so one of the guards was alerted to inform her so that she could come and engage her hand brake or gear. When the guard went to peak he found a lizard driving the car….

  198. its not a scene from a movie. just been talking to someone who witnessed it in Lusaka. its for real. why make up such a story?

  205. Its ok. Dont worry about it. I know its hard to believe. But black magic, juju, voodoo, whatever you may call it, seems to exist in Zed. My friend told me because she works for Standard Chartered Bank. I dont have all the details, I wasn’t there… I dont know who the culprit is. I just heard some big shot lady. She didn’t dare go out to see the lizard when it created chaos. But people have been talking about it since.
    Just like you will hear of taxi drivers in Livingstone who carry two-headed snakes to enhance business! SUPERSTITION!!

  212. To deflate VJ Mwanga just pull the white stopper off and he will collapse, I thought it was a joke. We can now see it in black and white.:d:d:d

  214. too bad for Zambian Airways. i wish we had a listerning president. not bank. this is a way to go airline and i need this instition

  215. It is in reality a nice and useful piece of information. I am satisfied that you just shared this useful info with us. Please stay us informed like this. Thanks for sharing.
