With almost a month to go before the Zambia Open Golf championship, the organizers arehaving to deal with a four-legged foe causing havoc to some sections of the front and back nine’s at the Ndola Golf Club.
Goats belonging to Copperbelt deputy minister Mwansa Mbulakulima are said to be helping themselves to some hearty patches of the greens and fairways on the 80-year-old golf course much to the displeasure of the organizing committee.
On Thursday, Sunshine Tour director Gary Todd, whose South African-based organ sanctions the Zambia Open, was here to inspect works ahead of the Open to be held from August 26-29 was greeted by stray goats inside the Ndola golf club perimeter.
Golfers questioned as to who was the owners of the goats they pointed in the direction of Mbulakulima’s residence.
Mbulakulima’s offical residence is located smack in the middle of the Ndola golf club making the greener grass an irresistible target for his goats and sheep.
Club officials refused to comment on the presence of the goats although off- the-record admitted that the beasts were an irritant and destroying the delicate greens and were a huge headache on keeping the course in shape ahead of the big tee-off next month.
Only in Zambia can you have goats mowing the lawn at a Golf course. Donald Trump needs to learn this technic for his new golf courses.
He should buy a farm, how can he keep goats and sheep in that area, no wonder our towns and cities are so dirty, he reminds of Ba Muzungu, he was my neighbour in Longacres, he also had goats, so you can just imagine what we had to endure.
Um am trying to figure out which house it is now ,am bit familier with that area.
The problem is that we have too many primitive leaders like Mbulakulima and Muzungu who cannot follow the or laws or by-laws they themselves formulate.
That shows the ineptness of the council who are there to ensure that by-laws are strictly adhered to by residents regardless of one’s status.

#6JEFF MWANZA – That is not the way things work in Zambia. A minister can sleep with another man’s wife and get away with it.These are our gods and we dare not challenge them even when we see their wrongs.
I need to be schooled on this one; how are goats, sheep, pigs, rabbits, ducks, fowls, turkeys, chickens and the likes, categorized with regard to keeping? There are a lot of these around town, especially in high density areaz.
You chap Mbulakulima see off your gots. Do not use your power.
Awe bane this is typical example of going back to the land while living in the city. Thumbs up Mbulakulima for leading by example. The goats also provide manure for the greens. Recycling is the term used for such an arrangement. Hahahahahah, if we meet patujilijili dont linch me!
Mwansa Mbulwamano chilishani. Take your goats to a farm. What a nonsense.
kill all of them….
