Solwezi- This vehicle, which has no number plate, certificate of fitness and road tax, passes through Police roadblocks without any slight interference; yet, other cars are detained because the have a scratched mirror.    This vehicle is for the late Tetamashimba. Is the Solwezi justice system selective?

  1. Nice pics of the week. Lusaka looks clean & the people are dressed quite neat. In short, I can see some positive changes.

  2. Pic 17-Isnt that a croc sneaking up on the boy if you look closly at the water? How can you send a child to fetch water from a croc infested river? And he is not even paying attention.

    Pic 15-We once got hussled trying to leave Lusaka going C/belt cus the insurance was expiring the next day. We were detained for more than an hour until we coughed out some money! What a country!

  3. Fortunately she will never be a president! She failed the test even after gobbling a whooping US$2m for the AU Chairperson! Maybe, she needs to go and resuurect AGENDA for Zambia

  4. Nambala 9 Katalina, you sound like you had a bad day – did you get a retrenchment letter? I’m sorry. Life must go on…smile a while and enjoy the weekend!

  5. Photo # 10 -Ryan Chitoba is the infamous Legacy Mmembe is shoving in vain for.With an arms robbery but solved with a DEC Chief position.Within 8 months a legacy of ZK 2.5 billion gone and the legacy protection started with mass expulsions of whistle blowers.May the legacy rubbish RIP at the Embassy park even as Chungu, Musonda , Rev.Gladys Nyirongo and families serve their terms.

  6. Pics #6 & 15 – This is ridiculous, to let a vehicle in that dangerous condition on public roads just because it belongs to a minister and police turn a blind eye to that! I challenge the inspector general of police to comment on this if he is trully fit for the job.

  7. Correction! the vehicle in pic 15 does not belong to lata Tetamashimba, it belongs to Richard Mulusa who is nephew to the late Teta. LT, get your facts right before you mislead pipo

  8. #21 @Ba Solwezi: The issue is not the owner but the corrupt practices by the police. The same nephew to late Teta had the vehicle from his uncle. what are you talking about?

  9. #22@VCT,whatever that means!my clarification was on the rightfull owner who i mentioned and this person got the van from some chinese investors who were carrying out explorations and was registered in RSA am not in any way supporting this but it’s not good to bring Tetas’ name who is not here to defend himself

  10. I heard that alot of bootleg CD’S or Rubbers have flooded the Zambian scene from China, so people beware. Some of them have also surfaced on the USA black market. They look exactly like originals but they offer no protection. BEWARE.

  11. # 1 you are right Rb looks like the chietainess no wonder they say that in this world there is always a twin brother or sister for everyone(muchalo twaba babili babili).Thats rb,s identical sister i should believe.

  12. tetamashimba was UPND poached by MMD, even in southern Province we dont arrest our comrades cos we know them, but if Katele comes in his benz monze police will cite him for broken benz emblem while using GRZ number plate, the fine is 10 million kwacha or 10 bags of 90 kg roller meal. so leave solwezi justice to solwezi people.

  13. pic #15 is that the vehicle tatamashimba left for his family memebers in solwezi? thats why police just let it go

  14. Condoms and life, lets just be serious, you mean we cant start good behaviour lessons? the only surest way of getting protected is by self respect, control and sobriety.
    how many people have benefited from the condoms and knowing how expensive latex is yet in zambia they are given freely? wake up zedians with your nyele or else minzi iza sila so!

  15. Why are we being subjected to Ambassador Lewanika’s plastic smile day-in-and-day-out?
    Its too much of one person even though we know its a campaign gimmick.
    Please spare us ba LT.

  16. Pic 6 and 12, ci motoka ca ba Tentamashimba is very Prominent here in Solwezi, it actually has only remained with an Engine now, it even moves at Night and all the Solwezi and Mutanda Police do is turn their eyes away from it, the driver are normally filthy kids who I think do not even have Driver’s Licences.
    Nice Pictures though LT, SPIRIT THE KEEP.
