  1. At what speed was the driver of that Toyota Hilux driving at for it to overturn if it’s only th rear tyre that burst,i think he was overspeeding otherwise he would have controlled the vehicle to avoid rolling several times as it seems from the pictures.

  2. yabba you guys, its not like you pay for any of this. If you dont like set up your website and spend your own time take snaps loading them up to the internet. Ungrateful self *****s.

  3. Thandiwe looked like a first Lady- the outfit, keep it up! not always chitenge materials, people might misjudge you for a chieftainess or something in those lines. I was shaking from memories, almost the same though ours was a pajelo, front tire burst. God is Great!

  4. #4 I agree with you, if you people don’t like the photos then simply don’t look at them. Or like you have rightly put it, let them set up their own websites and see how they will do themselves.

  5. #4 and #7, The argument that we get these things for free is tired. Do you know how many websites are free and still manage to give their fans quality stuff? Don’t act like LT is the only website that is free. These guys get paid through ads. So if they slack, it hurts their business because the less bloggers they have, the less people advertise. If LT at some point decides to charge for their site, I definitely would not waste my money based on the quality of their work right now!

  6. No. 18 – Too overdressed! She needs to be in a bikini! No. 24 looked like our boxer was in control but alas, No.25 tells a different story! hahahaha

  7. Can someone start a campaign to encourage our fat young Zambian women to exercise? Obesity is not a sign of good health. Two things stand out at kitchen parties: 1. Fat 2. Bleached faces.

  8. The Permanent Secretary Vehicles Was Really Flying To Actually Crush Land In That State iLiko Badi Any Way Model In Pic 18 Hot……….

  9. love may be blind but surely the sense of smell must still be functional in pic 16. Or are Zambians now so used to dirt they can now whisper sweet nothings in front of garbage! BTW thanks LT for your work excuse the ungrateful brats,they can’t even design their own websites let alone keep it current 7 days a week, 52 weeks a year.

  10. I feel sorry for the Zambian Boxer. I heard he was walloped. His wife even collapsed. The guy has done a good thing to retire. Its not nice being walloped in front of his wife.

  11. i see,zambia has not change,the shortage of petrol remind me of zimbabwe it started slowly.
    the meidia always potray african women to be fat and ugly, its the poor qulitey of contraseptive,the one comes from asia,sad.

  12. the “fanta cocacola women” look like cheap prost’tutes from mashabeeni or Zombies out of a bad voodoo nigerian film!

  13. Free Free Free. I dont undertand why people are saying we get these things free. No, someone pays for it. The advertisers pays. That’s how it works. There’s nothing for free. If people stop reading LT, advertisers will go somewhere else and there will be no LT anymore.

    Anyway, pics are ok. Just lack variety, too many for the same event. Why not have a pic for a different story. Boring.

    Please give advertsers good value for their money.

  14. LT where are the Kasama Pics? …..Had it been MMD who won the elections in Kasam,the pics would have been all over.

  15. #6 EM i am impressed too that was a nice outfit she was wearing. Pic 13 at least somebody is doing something about keeping zambian clean the should also work on keeping it green. Zambia has got a lot of water to keep most of our public surrounding green. Its so dry hence the horrible dust

  16. Ba LT we want the pics of RB when he tours the States. We know already that he embarassed us overthere, we dont care we just want to have a look at them. This is not the first time. Tule lolela, mwendeshe ku chita publish ama photo ayo twapapata sana. Abena Lusaka mwadileni uko !!!

  17. Eh is that Thandiwe, finally transformed?! But the mukule…oh well, guess thats her favourite hairstyle, who are we?

  18. Lovely pics – lots of interesting activities going on in Lusaka every week & weekend.
    Zambian boxers better make sure they’re fit enough before they step into the ring and get embarrassed like that. His Tunesian opponent surely doesn’t look that dangerous.

  19. LT you have really dissapointed me i expected a picture of RB in Commander in Chief gear with a caption like “We would like to warn all our laugh sensitive viewers that the picure you are about to see may make you laugh so much you could choke to death”

  20. Not a bad set of pics LT. But when we complain about the layout, we’re not being unappreciative. Rather take it as constructive criticism to “up your game” as they say!

    Number 18 is pretty hot… 🙂

  21. Very funny and good pics…

    Thandie is coming up.. Manje bazimai mu vitenje ku boxing match??? in Pic #20??

    All the same, I miss Kitchen parties….

  22. LT ENOUGH OF THE WASAJA PIX, GET THE LATEST INFO. OUR VERY OWN YOUNG MAN HASTINGS BWALYA WON BY WAY OF TKO IN NEVADA IN THE FIRST ROUND. THE FIGHT ONLY LASTED 30 SECONDS WITH FOUR POWERFUL HEADACHING PUNCHES FROM THE YOUNG MAN. HIS OPPONENT FAIED TO BEAT THE COUNT AND LEFT THE RING AIDED. BE ON THE LOOK OUT HASTINGS WILL BRING A WORLD TITLE TO ZAMBIA SOON.

  23. Its so sad that people continue getting killed due to tire bursts. The solution is so simple. STOP USING TUBED TIRES! TUBELESS TIRES WILL NOT BURST, You hardly get rollover accidents in developed countries due to tire burst largely because they don’t use TUBES.

  24. No 48,Tubeless tires dont burst!!! what a joke, how long have you been in america? The reasons you dont get such accidents include 1. checking tire pressures are correct 2 .not overloading 3 .most importantly, checking the tires are not worn. 4.No pot holes(pot holes increase tires pressures momentarily when hit) .TUBELESS TIRES ALSO BURST, BIG TIRES LIKE ON MOST 4×4 ARE NOT TUBELESS EVEN IN AMERICA

  25. Simple physics (pressure per square surface) will tell you why tubed tires are more prone to “blowing and exploding” compared to tubeless. I suggest you go to the NASCAR /Indy/Fomular1 website and read up on the innovations on tire technology and how they are able to put on a safe sport at speeds in excess of 215mph. To those with ears take note this will save lives!

  26. The minister and his hench-men were pissed,simple.and you guys at LT you should right things that make sense,’out wheel cover peeled off’what the hell do you mean?we can see the car has rims and they are not covered,or were you writting without being there?mind you the whole world looks at your images,so you better improve standards,also the editting must be of world class….
