wonders shall never end…Witchcraft bull is still going on..even beating a person to death…eish..!
Na zina chabe. Typing!! Tei waipaya nomunobe sure?
Ignorance @ its best!!! but what is he doing walking the streets. So there is no Police post in the area, but govt is buying katenga malilos. SHAME!!!!!
Ba Typing or Ba Fork , Telephone? What a name
“She died of suspected witchcraft which allegedly caused prolonged labour on May 29 th 2009.”
Just goes to show that some of our fellow Zambians are still living in the dark ages
Why not arrest the Killer for taking some ones life, Where are the dead mans relatives, this killer must be jailed.
Whether you like it or not Witchcraft still exists. There are dark powers in realms were only the spiritual awakened can see. Modernisation has helped reduce or rather transformed witchcraft into another form. Dont argue, i know what am talking about. Those that practice witchcraft and spiritualisms shall NOT inherit the kingdom of God.
No.1 is good looking on the outside.
#7….I quote “Dont argue, i know what am talking about. “..does this mean you can testify to witchcraft. can you perhaps break this down to cusion the statement boss?
#8 Miss daisy, My thoughts exactly!!
If only there was an ambulance to transport the woman who died of prolonged labour to the nearest health facility for intervention, this death could have been avoided and no one would have put the blamed on witchcraft for her difficult labour.
#10 Monalisa fimo fimo, you are right. The chinese Hearse was probably parked as she lay dying. Any way, they will now use it. Thats what they wanted.
#10..i agree..this is synonymous to thowing twins in the bush because somebody thinks its an abomination..things like this can be avoided if people can have some knowledge… its because of beliefs like ubuloshi that make people innocently loose thier lives..damn..we need some more education and services to pumped to the rural areas …or and prayers……Even the bible says my people perish because of luck of knowledge.
Ba #7 ba Analyser Mudala, #8 has asked you to give an explanation. We are still waiting for it boss. Or is it that you just yap at anything withoutn thinking of backing it up? Always gather your facts straight befor putting them accross to people who will challenge them, please.
The Flying Doctor Service was set up to cater for such obstetric emergencies in order to get to people in hard to reach areas. It’s no longer well supported and so women still die of obstetric complications. In 2009 such things shouldn’t be allowed to happen. It’s really primitive

Dying due to lack of Knowledge indeed, But I think there is too much witchcraft in this area maybe that is the reason why they behave this way. I hope the police team that has been dispatched to the area will workout something in accordance to the law and not fearing being bewitched. The murderer must be arrested because ignorance has no defence and also prolonged labour, maybe she was taken to the health facility so early and maybe even mal nourished so lacked enough blood
#16 Shi ntwane, the Police that have been dispatched to the area need to consult Katele and get the neccessary protection to go in. They need beads, computers nefyashala!
Sad. And why is that chap who killed the old man still roaming the village ‘tracks”?
#17. Ba Moze. Chiengi computers, hehehe!
The katenga malilo is there in the village but it has no fuel.!. Too bad ba shikulu ba Typing, jackson must be locked up, he has committed murder.
Does anyone have the contacts for Katele, I think these cops need it urgently before they enter the area
#21..lol
Nakawala dies ‘ radio news”..
Political ntwane, i missed that!!
Government after has has procured ma katengamalilo,so no rush.That murderer roaming the village should be caged
Chabipa sana ba TYPING NGOMA iiiiiiiiieeeehhh. Naumfwa ububi, the man was my uncle kaleza. Jackson naisa, wafwa na panga.
Ba Moze, it was on radio pheonix, the lady died somewhere in Ethopia.
#27 Political Prostitute, This is what we keep talking about. what the he.ll was she doing dying in Ethiopia…and i suppose at government expense?
Nakawala died while en route to West Africa. She was going for treatment there
Lets ask Katele coz we have to consult those who have better experience, Oherwise bazatilowa bonse
Ba LT how can the suspect be unknown but identified as Jackson Mwanza.
The deceased name is “Typing Ngoma”, wow! what a name….maybe he is related to deputy foreign affairs minister “Fashion Phiri.” lol! what’s wrong with people from the eastern province? Can’t they find real names.
This is some bull sheet right here, how long was the prolonged labor and why was it blamed on Typing Ngoma? That was just a complication that could have probably been rectified if Gladys was taken to the hospital….Jackson needs to be arrested.
Jackson nikoko ya loan.
True, stress, anger, disappointments, frustrations, and other negative emotions adversely affect our minds and even bodies. Such negative emotions and actions should be dealt effectively and set- backs should be accepted without injuring our health. Mindfulness Meditation is that medicine which helps to deal with negative emotions and situations in the most effective manner.
