  1. Eba Paparazzi ba pa Zed aba? Also give us pictures or videos like that of Vedanta Chairman. We want to know people raping Zambia

    • ala mwandini, nabatunyenga ba mwisa aba. kwashala panono, ndebwelela ku zed. ala bafwa ba mwisa, enjoy before i get home. mwalachimona soon.

    • While the PF govt may have its own shortcomings just like any govt around the world, these pics show that there is a lot going on especially in infrastructure development around the country.

      opening up the rural areas like the PF govt is doing is the best way of developing the country

      Keep moving and yes we want to see more work done

    • What those Catholic women are doing is what other Christians ought to emulate, not taking tithe from poor people!

  2. Pic 17. Commissioning a K2,400 classroom? This must be a mega project!! Keep it up PF.

  3. I laughed as though it was nice. The caption on the Fuso accident reads driver is in police custody. I was just thinking to myself why arrest the driver? For allowing the tire to burst? Someone explain to me please.

    • For causing death by the truck he was driving. By law driver should first be locked up even if he was stationary.

    • In a civilised country like where you are now.,The tread of the tires and the pressures have to meet certain specisifcations. If you drive a car with less than 2 mm tread in the UK for example you get charged. So I hope you now understand why he was arrested.

  4. They should get those jobless hooligans shown in picture 1 to do the jobs in pictures 38 and 39.
    That way they can get some work experience.

  5. I salute the Dorchester mothers. Cleanness and maintenance lacks in Zambia. Pics 41& 42, tyre burst should not cause deaths. The driver was over speeding. Sad for the deceased. Mazabuka radio station lacks cleaness and maintenance too. I could go on for other photos too.

  6. Moving the elephant to some other place, they should have slaughtered the animal and allowed the villagers to feast on it. The elephant population is too much.

    • Ah chap your drunk go home, that elephant can provide business through tourism while eating it will only feel there stomachs for one day.

      Thanks LT it’s good to see what’s going on back home

  7. Picture 1&2
    …is there a police service or is it a police force or police command in Zed….?? How do u allow such a situation…??

    UPND or MMD cadres attending Kabimba’s court case…..how and why apart from creating a volatile situation..??

  8. The PF government obviously has some governance issues to sort out but when it comes to infrastructure development, they are doing a very good job in just two and half years. I recently had the opportunity to travel through the provinces and what I saw is amazing. Construction and rehabilitation of roads, schools, hospitals, universities, stadia, Air ports etc are all over the country. I think PF given another term would change the face of Zambia.

  9. I think the picture on the pillars of the bridge are sad. Why couldn’t the Engineers put up stronger pillars on that bridge? Even as a layman I can see that the pillars were not well designed for such a big bridge.

    • so true…..the sad reality of our country. No one cares….this issue of ‘ukulyamo’ and maximising on the profits. the construction company as long as he has put up a face of a building even if it does not meet the standards, to them its ok…and our politicians don’t care since nabalyamo.

  10. Suspected PF cadre or PF supporters.
    They are singing the PF songs. What proof do you want, they are supporters mwe bantu.
    The picture in the weekend profile is missing.
