No comment!
This ceremony is about 13years old. I wonder how it came into being. As usual abemba beingokopela ati nawo bankhaleko na ceremnoy. Just as one bemba chap was copying from me during a biology practical exam mu form five. He ended up including a butterfly which settled on my paper which I left open when I went to the toilet. Just imagine the chap was busy asking for crayons and just after I came back, the butterfly flew away only to leave the poor bemba with requests for more blank paper. Meanwhile nkoloko neyeve yenzeti “tik tok tik tok” rendering the chap to panic. Celebrate well you chaps and osaponela mu thobwa shyaaa, ati tyalabati.
DONGO na SUNDU
That is good humour,manje imwe mwe bangoni mu exam balesuminisha ukulomba ama crayon niku holofeya? Elyo ma desk yashani mwalebomfya pakuti umuntu amikopele,ma bench? Pauntu mu exam twikala one meter apart elyo imwe mwaisasangwa na butterfly awe iyi yena yachimfya.
