May her soul rest in eternal peace. That Commercial Capenta Farmer should do something to protect the lives of many others before its too late or before other lives are lost.
Very sad indeed.
Let the parents take legal action for a hefty compensation.
It will not bring their daughter back, but the farmer should pay heavily so as to protect other innocent lives from being unnecessarily lost.
My sincere condolences to the family.
ZESCO’S head needs to be on the chopping board on this one.. let the law take its course…..
My her soul rest in peace,please Boss call zesco apo per farm so that those cables are insulated in order that others wont die,negligience ba farm mnger
Why lose innocent children, am sure the Kapenta farmer makes a lot of money from selling kapenta or Zesco can sort it out. Negligence is not good.
That’s one death too many. Something should have been done about those wires after the previous incidence. Prevention is always better than cure. I wonder who should be blamed. Certainly something must be done to prevent similar fatalities.
May be the local chief or village headman can help. Or the MP.
That will teach her and her friends not to play with ma lights!
Very sad indeed may her soul rest in peace.
