  1. Good to see clean streets in Choma. But mu Zambia we now have two extremes of some women like old mama Kankasa using jft ambi to the extremes while some are getting darker because of the sun.what is the answer to the two extremes? LT what is this mama Kankasa health voucher?

  2. People reacived blankets and pots so vote for PF . Mr back Parker president is ever were on holiday , has he got a office to work ?

  3. Mwema Engineers twebeniko. Bushe Chinshi chilya pa chimbayambaya? What does it do in the mines? And also Couldn’t we have made it in Zed? Is making it in SA and bringing it all the way here the most economical procedure? Sancho

    • Very funny. Tell me a company that’s makes needles or INNYELTI MU ZAMBIA than you want to ask about making Crane Parts. Mu Pepa Bwino Dobo!! LOL

  4. that abnormal load should not be on the road during the day, plus its killing our roads cant wait for toll boths to go up so the can charge those guys for road maintence

  5. Poverty is a serious thing. We have to leave it and jump out of the death spiral because we are a blessed nation and rich beyond measure.

    If we can teach our people basic knowledge and skills, they can prevent things such as firestorms and don’t have to rely on hand outs. If we can set up large-scale industrial plants within the country, we can manufacture almost everything and do not require the importation of heavy equipment on abnormal trucks via neighbouring countries.

  6. PIX btwn 1 and 7 surely takwaliko ama blankets ayasuma? PIX btwn 14 and 19, I like this Kasolo guy. I think he is a very progressive mind and very modern. PIX btwn 35 and 37, THIS IS JUST NOT WHAT WE WANT IN ZAMBIA. ZAMBIA IS A PEACEFUL COUNTRY AND BAD EGGS MUST BE HANGED OR LOCKED UP. THIS LOSS OF INNOCENT LIVES ARE UNCALLED FOR AND MUST BE CONDEMNED BY ALL AND STOPPED. THE 3 WHO WERE MURDERED DID NOT REALLY DESERVE IT. NEITHER DID THOSE WHO WERE BRUTALLY INJURED. MY HUMBLE APPEAL TO THOSE WHO CAN AFFORD IS THAT THEY SHOULD INSTALL CCTV IN THEIR OFFICES AND RESIDENCES TO HELP POLICE TRACE THESE BAD EGGS AND DETER MORE MURDER INCIDENTS AIMED AT RICH PEOPLE.

  7. …that looks like an overhead crane girder….we definitely have the workshops and the capacity to fabricate such…..Meltcast former Techpro workshop….Copperbelt steel in Kitwe have the capacity and the expertise to fabricate da same…..if only we had a political will to discourage such imports….denying us jobs and undue stress on our tarred roads….

    • does it mean the rail line in zambia is none functioning,such abnormal equipment is suppose to be ferried using rail system.

    • But the Scrutinizer is right………The first ladies observations using her hand is irrelevant to say the list, bushe ukumono mulelwe kulakasana pamibili. It was the late first lady yes, it was going to make sence because she was a medical doctor herself, not aba bana maliketi pa Nakadoli Market ku Kitwe.

  8. Planzo you are another important and intelligent contributor on this forum, asking intelligent and helpful questions. It’s why Zambia need people like you, who can ask those questions. No one will develop Zambia but ourselves and this includes all political leaders and every Zambian irrespective of status in society. Take a leaf from Rwanda and ask ourselves. It’s a collective failure as Zambians and not unip ,mmd, pf or any other party but all of us. Don’t be to good at talking only, offer solutions then you will be counted. People want to know where they are going, before they trust you.

  9. Nice to see Sister Jato head teacher at Ibenga on pictures 33, 2nd from left kneeling and 34, standing on the far left. Met her a number of times when my little princess was at Ibenga. Very good school

  10. Good journalism should have stated what this “abnormal load” was and what it was going to become on the Copperbelt.

  11. @ATASE…THIS IS WEEKEND IN PICTURES. JUST PICTURES IWE WITH FEW COMMENTS. YASHANI IMWE BA ZED…RESEARCH…
