  1. Ba LT, we need a little more details like what documents he is alleged to have uttered etc. I am sure you know naba Post bonse have gone your style so the competition will be tough in attarcting ama readers ka.

  2. Yes LT, Moderator is right – we need more details for us to analyse the matter properly. No report at all is even better than a half-baked report.

  3. LT has become boring as most of the news is stale. Please jack up. It appears the no of bloggers is declining.

  4. LT keeps you informed for free !…why are you making noise & complaining baiche imwe?

  5. i have previously commented about lack of depth in some LT stories. things are bound to remain the same if the main source remains ZANIS.

  6. Reading LT lately is so boring,its like your articles are “cut and paste” from Times ya Zamabia or indeed Daily Fimo Fimo……..
