ZAWA fails to capture two stray lions terrorising villagers

Share

Chibombo District Commissioner ( DC ) Colonel Philip Chabakale has expressed his dissapointment at the Zambia wildlife authority ( ZAWA )’s officers failure to capture two stray lions that in the recent past terrorised Chiyuni area.

Col. Chibakale said he was concerned that ZAWA officers who were in the area to capture the dangerous beasts had not succeeded in their mission.

He said this had left lives of people and their domestic animals at the mercy of the marauding lions. The beasts recently killed two cows in the area.

The DC has since appealed to the ZAWA management to redeploy its officers to control the situation.

The beasts are suspected to have come from Kafue national park and Kaindu area in Mumbwa district have so far slain 3 cows in the area since they were spotted.

And the presence of the lions in the area has delayed the re-opening of schools in the area.

One of the schools is Kalebuka Basic school. The school head teacher Belington kunda says the lions were spotted by several local residents in the area around 04:00 hrs this morning.

Mr Kunda says the lives of innocent children trailing to school every morning are at stake because of the lions which are looming around in the area.

He further appealed to local authorities to move in to curb the situation as the lions pose a serious security risk in the area.

  1. Are there no mobile phones and landcruisers to use? Sport the lions call the Zawa gys who can easily cruise and boooom booooom!

    send there personel to find and kill these beasts before more human lives are lost.I appeal to you
    coz you represent all those people in those areas.Makani njenayo twalumba.   

  3. by the way workers are on strike in itezhi-tezhi this includes teachers, health workers, zawa, agriculture, social welfare. the issue is over government failure to pay rural hardship as promised . more to come

  4. HERE KITTY KITTY….QUICK COME WE CAN SAVE YOU FROM THE SAVAGES WHO DON’T UNDERSTAND ALL ARE EQUAL IN LIFE.

    KILL AN ANIMAL FOR NO LEGITIMATE REASON AND KARMA WILL GET YOU.

  5. Why can’t my mbuyes organise themselves and sort these lions out. Get one ernegetic young man who can run faster than a suntwe. He gets closer to the lions, throws a few stones at them and he sets off for the other villagers who by now with their spears have made two files. as he passes through the two files with the lions giving chase the villagers then turn their javelines at the lions and within a short time the lions will be gone. This is how we the Makomas finished the lions in Liuwa National Park. Need help?

  6. hahahaha. Puchukwe, u have made my day. You have watched a lot of ‘THERE IS A ZULU ON MY STOEP’ …kekekekeekek
