An elderly man of Chief Chinyaku’s area of Chipata District has died after issuing disparaging remarks against the Head of State.

Engine Ngoma of Lufu village died last Thursday after hanging himself on a mango tree for alleged insulting the President.

Makangila Ward Councilor Daniel Mwanza confirmed the death yesterday and said the deceased was found hanging in his field.

Mr Mwanza said upon being searched, he was found with a letter in which he indicated that he decided to terminate his life following the insults on the Head of State.

The councilor said the body of the decease had since been buried.

“This man was insulting the President and he decided to commit suicide,”he said.

When reached for a comment Eastern Province Police Commissioner Grace Chipalila said she had not yet received the report on the matter but Mr Mwanza said it was the police who picked up the body.

  1. Wonders shall never cease to happen. Surely was it necessary. You insult somebody who didnt even hear you insulting him and then you take your life. Or was it just foul play here?

    • It could be our own LT’s ZP (Zabwino Palibe), he wrote us that he plan to end his life if Sata’s PF lost or won elections in Mansa. Despite our plea to him that, Sata is not life factor, he is just a

    • @cindy
      iwe cindy,,understand that ba late ba mudala beze kundya mbwino kuli ba RB,, until fork tongued cobra come and hunger arrived too

    • Kate. You right, very foolish man indeed. He should have quietly repented and continue with his life. Any way some things happen for a reason. MHSRIP

  2. Its just had to accept that Sata can be a president of country. Many such cases will follow. I nearly committed suicide as well.

    • When are commiting sucide as well?You promised.atleast your friend was courageous.People like you cant not live to their own words.You are disgrace to your children and family.You made alot of noise and declared that you will commit sucide should PF win.

  3. These are matters that need further investigations than making simple conclusion from a simple letter found with the deceased. The man could have been killed then hanged.

  4. The demon that made him insult the President killed him. Many mo will follow him. Especially this demon calling itself Zp nd oders like Enka,Wanselu,Ndobo.LT why don’t u go beyond wat u write ? Dig deeper.Ba machine,ist ba tractor or bachigayo? BYE !

  5. The bottom line is that noone should insult the head of state. The president is the symbol of nationhood. A democratically elected leader must be given due respect. But the action taken by Engine Ngoma to terminate his life after insulting the president is inhuman. If his reason for killing himself was to escape the law, he hasn’t solved anything.

  6. If the President didn’t notice nor the Police ,why did he have to Hang?

    Could it be the Panga Family(PF) Cadres Hanged him & put a false letter in his Pocket ?
    *I smell a RAT !

    Or Mr Engine just nocked ?

  8. He he he !! @i HENRY SOSALA…
    Why is Mr President troubling you? Did u forge your Royal membership like Un honourable Masumba ?

  9. Every one has problems but don’t hide that he had insulted the head of state,he had nothing to give his family…shame ba engine.

  10. Strange things happen. It would not be surprising if futher investigations revealed that the man had financial, health or family-related issues.

    It reminds me of an Asian quote I once read which goes something like: when its your time to go, even a leaf falling on your head will break your neck.

  11. LT,
    The story is not complete and leaves a lot of question marks. What insulting words did the man utter? What some people may take as insults may not be as such in real sense. How can one be covinced that the deceased commited suicide just because he was ‘found’ hanging. He could have been attacked and hanged by some assailants.

    In cases like this you need investigative reporters who establish some truth based on what they have been able to gather. When you are not sure of what exactly happened you should have said a man has allegedly commited suicide after allegedly insulting the president. The word allegedly makes a big difference.

  12. Tangileniko mudala ifwetuleshansha naco icalo, infact fwebabemba tutila icalo lifupa kukolokota kofye wacisha. I am disappointed by the RB’s family why not apologizing than terminating life and go with bad record kuliba Jesus.

  13. What type of insults were made to have him searched by Office of the President (OP) chaps? Lets have the verbatim of these insults to evaluate them really.
    How vulnerable is Sata to be insulted harshly that triggers OP to please their master leading to innocent Zambian taking his own life. Hope its not rituals since PF people are known for this habit.

  14. BA DIESEL Engine mwebo, mwingalipaila pamatuka chabe!!! Nemo, am so disappointed. Pambi yali NI AIR LOCK Bamfumu tatungeshiba fwebo mamaeeeee!!!!

  15. I MISS THE MENTALIST, BONES OR CSI, i don’t buy the suicide story. why burry so soon without the police knowing. because engine looks like a class C citizen, i daught if any investigation will be carried out at all to properly establish the real cause of his death.

  16. It is not insults that led that man to terminate his life. Am sure it is something else. May be Diesel Engine was engulfed in financial or health problems so the only way out was to give that false story which Am sure no one can testify that Engine insulted the president. Why insult the president as if he has a case with you!! Low thinking of a Chipata chap!!!!

  17. Hey,hey,wait. The truth is, one who utters insults is courageous especially one like comrade Engine who can publicly insult the president,he must have been a very very courageous man indeed, and to be told that he hanged himself sparks more questions. No! he was hanged by you know who.

  18. My cousins also. Ati Engine Ngoma ka! The other one ati Rupiya Banda! I think I should marry a Ngoni woman and call our son Telephone Chikwanda! Anyway RIP Mr Engine.

  19. There are different types of health insurance covering all
    parts of society like individual, family, employees yet others.
    If by venting you mean screaming, yelling, ranting or raving
    about your problems, feelings and emotions with anger, then no, venting is not good.
