Tetashimba looks smart for once from his usual ‘agona musanga’ look. I was thinking how come Police never go on strike like nurses ? is it because they side hustle money from bribes is too good

Simon July 3, 2009 At 5:03 pm

What is it with Women and scarfs in Zambia. See post editor who was being questioned and Dora Sillier. Has the climate changed or is it a novelty? Teta looks like he is not used to wearing suits, just looks wrong! Its Friday so indulge me my irrelevant comments. On a serious note seeing all those people queing up for jobs as police officers shows how bad the job market in Zambia is. Our successive governments have somehow managed to erode the value from very noble and formerly respected professions such as teaching, nursing and policing. I hope the future offers better prospects otherwise there will be chaos in our country.
Monalisasyndrome July 3, 2009 At 5:08 pm

Pic #14 & Pic #16. Our nurses look dejected when they’re on strike. Has anyone of you seen how South Africans do their thing while on strike? Muleshanako banamayo, elyo chivuvuka nabwino.

A pleasant change from the almost monotonous. If only for vanity reasons should RB not have give Mz Masebo a ministerial position? That woman looks good; even as a recepient of foreign guests should would indeed out illuminate them. It is at the least well with myself that our physically challenged families can protest and have a window on LT, question, how are we on this blog to assist them? For all things work for the good for those that love the Lord. Wow! Did any of you notice Mr. Mulongoti he has been humble as of late good!!!!!!!!!!!. Computers for Petauke ladies knowledge enhancement welcome, they shall be learned education started in their homes. Great weekend family remember to relax have fun and go to church; we all need Jesus seriously.

Ba police have no union to represent them so they cant go on strike. But they also benefit when nurses and teachers goes on strike.

# 22 Shawade Daisy taumfwa, our most of our Zambian cops are former Lusaka-street traders, so they have money to buy suits. How was your Belly Dancing class, is it not the same as they were teaching you Banachimbusa?
Luapula Fish July 4, 2009 At 1:31 am

That boy in the second pic would make a very good corp Masebo’s beauty is slowly fading like a candle light ,she is looking very awful

Namugala’s dental formular is not as good as I thought

Teta cant even smile on such interesting meetings better become a military man or a chief

Dora will not have her freedom until she lives with the reality Jonas Sakahuwa looks like is well paid

Hikahumba is the worst Trade Union President ever -this may be the result of his poverty background and will need sometime to stabilise

kufe sipawa July 4, 2009 At 12:11 pm

ts zambian politics as usual, ugly teta pulling the strings, u guys are right he should be a bee keeper not minister. Nurses are on strike to earn at least &300 while politicians line their pockets and fatten themselves on state resources. Guys lets face it, the one credible person who could stop this rot is miyanda. enough is enough, i need my zambia back.
