Police pick up 11 suspects linked to ritual murders as Xenophobic attacks intensify
Eleven suspects have been detained by Police in connection with ritual murders that have rocked Lusaka city.

About six people have been killed and their bodies dumped in various locations in Lusaka with missing body parts in what many believe are ritual killers.

And the riots that erupted yesterday targeted at Rwandese owned businesses have intensified with many more shops in other compounds being looted.

Home Affairs Minister Davies Mwila who toured some of the compounds affected this morning told Journalists that police are currently holding eleven suspects in connection with the spate of ritual murders.

Mr Mwila could however not confirm where some of the suspects are foreign nationals.
“What is important is that these are suspects, whether Zambians or foreigners and they are helping with investigations,” Mr Mwila said.

He also disclosed that about 254 residents are also in police custody for allegedly participating in riotous behaviour.

Mr Mwila said the suspects were picked up from Kanyama, Chawama, George and Zingalume townships.

“As government, we have continued appealing to our people to remain calm and allow the police to investigate these murders thoroughly, we don’t want our people to take the law into their own hands,” he said.

And more compounds in Lusaka this morning joined the Xenophobic attacks on Rwandese owned shops.

Residents of Bauleni, 10 Miles and Chainda started rioting early in the morning and looted shops belonging to Rwanda nationals resident in Zambia accusing them of being behind the ritual murders.

Some of the rioting residents interviewed vowed to continue with their riots until the Rwandese are flushed out of Zambia.

They also claimed that Rwandese nationals should leave the country because they have apparently taken over all the business opportunities in their areas.

The residents also blamed Government for allowing the Rwandese to open shops at every corner in most of the compounds depriving Zambians of the needed business opportunities.

  1. did anybody bar Zambians from opening shops? lets be realistic bane. loot the Chinese as well while you are at it

    • This is scaring.

      How can President Lungu continue campaigning when the country is on Fire. Lusaka is aflame, and the Head of state has not issued any statement. What exactly is he thinking?

      Does he think that that shallow address by Davis Mwila is sufficient in face of the gravity of this issue?
      Zambia, Zambia. My Zambia I cry

    • This cannot be tolerated!! Total nonsense. Just open your own shops on every corner if you have what it takes. This is barbaric and shameful and no amount of justification will make it acceptable. The police must lock up and charge all these looters. Since when did we become this wicked? And some people still think Zambia is a Christian Nation! This violence did not start now. It has been around for sometime now, its just changing faces. These thugs have been tolerated for a long time. Now even the little investor confidence we have been receiving will be tarnished because a few criminals. The Government has had many opportunities to end this violence being practiced by both PF and the opposition, especially the ruling party.

    • What is a passport for?

      It is a representative of a person representing Zambian.

      If not, a Reg will do.

      People my point, is you do not care about Zambia if you are not a patriot.

      The problem is and always has been that we are too soft, we allow persons of foreign to come and rule Zambia
      Zambia is for Zambians.

      Unless a foreigner can prove to show what they are doing, they MUST leave

      We don’t want passengers.

      I can’t come in your house to share a house with you without you challenging me WHEN I will leave and what on earth IAM DOING to start with.

      Unless you are 100% Zambian, you MIGHT be the cause of this- PLEASE GO BACK UNLESS you tell me what on earth you are doing in my country

      Thanks

    • Not long ago everybody was condemning South Africans for their Xenophobic behaviour!! What can we say now that the “peaceful” Zambians are doing the exact thing they were condemning others of doing? Believe it or not, things are not fine spiritually in Zambia. Dont even go to the economy. We have just shot ourselves in the foot. The consequences of just barbaric actions are worse than we think. Zambia is already under a lot of judgement for injustices being practiced by citizens; inequality, tribalism, corruption, violence and now Xenophobia!! You can call it global but call it a curse. I feel ashamed that our people are behaving like animals. This is how nations get judged.

    • Then you find shameless people like MUSHOTA and Mr KUDOS with their twisted possessed minds always taking serious things like a joke. These should even be blocked on LT. To them, everything is a joke or a blame game. Mr Kudos’ pathetic comments are as ugly as his foolish skull on his profile photo.. I dont know how such people manage to sleep at night with such demented minds!!

To them, everything is a joke or a blame game. Mr Kudos’ pathetic comments are as ugly as his foolish skull on his profile photo.. I dont know how such people manage to sleep at night with such demented minds!!….

    • This Criminal Sociopath that is ka mushota, started off as a joke. Now the joke has truly worn thin, & this useless “Mb0lolik0 is truly showing its Dangerous side by its rantings. I never ever commented on this attention seekers brainless rantings, but finally it has to be done, as this “mushota thing” is proving to be a cancerous growth in our midst.
      I only hope Zambians’ can see through this regarded sociopath.
      Mushota, please do normal peace loving Zambians’ a favour – stop breathing, as all you are is an oxygen thief who’ rant’s Xenophobic tripe, whilst squatting in a foreign country.

    • At Mushota, you are such a retard pu$$y…even your fukn PhD you claim aint real, you hole!! Get to the brothel azz!

    • @ Mushota, you are such a retard pu$$y…even your fukn PhD you claim aint real, you hole!! Get to the brothel azz!

    • since when did africans become persona non grata on the african continent. As a pan africanist, this goes deep against the modern history founding fathers of africa like Garvey, Nkhrumah, Kaunda. Our enemies are the people of the ice and the sand. Whatever grievances we have with our so called rwandese brothers and sisters can be solved in a much better way.

    • LT, STOP blocking us.. The people you should be blocking are such pathetic and foolish comments from MUSHOTA and MR KUDOS. You must even strip Mushota of her/his Best Blogger Award. She/he doesnt deserve if. There is zero logic in all her comments. She/he is probably the biggest joke among LT bloggers. Her and KUDOS dont deserve space on this platform.

    • Mushota, don’t mind these good for nothing critics of yours they are actually all foreigners , let’s flush them out they are just looting our wealth. And who says looting is barbaric?

    • Telltale signs of what is to come. I think there`s misapplication of the phrase “Xenophobic attacks”. There are not. They`re being looted because they`re suspected of ritual murders, and not because they`re Rwandese. Most of the foreigners have lived peacefully in those communities for decades.

    • Embarrassing that Zambians have reduced themselves to behave like South Africans. its a shame.. All these must be PF cadres because they believe they own the country..

    • Zambians are lazy and envious. Even when they open a small shop, they want 200% abnormal profit on every item…because they are always in a hurry to make fast money thus they do not go far in their business as in the end they fail and wind up. Where as Asians and other foreigners are patient and content with marginal profit….awee, Zambians ni ifintu nibwangu!

      This is what happens even in companies-all people want to do is steal from their employers, they are not content with their salary as they want to build a mansion and drive a big car-showing off!

      I remember an international company I worked for pa Zed. They had a problem with finding a reliable Cashier as the job involved collecting both foreign and local revenue and doing bank reconciliations. The manpower turnover in…

    • this section was so higher as who ever they employed, man or woman connived with foreigners to do money laundering when it came to forex account. Our Financial Controller had to step in and compelled me as a Revenue accountant to take on board Cashiering duties too-had to do these additional duties for over 5 yrs until I left because the Asian boss couldn’t trust anybody else. As i speak the Cashier who took over from me has already been fired-long fingers, ifintu nibwangu!! So even these kaponyas rioting, its just a culture of laziness embedded in us Zambians wanting to reap where you have not sown!!

  2. This is shameful.

    How can President Lungu continue campaigning when the country is on Fire. Lusaka is aflame, and the Head of state has not issued any statement. What exactly is he thinking?

    Does he think that that shallow address by Davis Mwila is sufficient in face of the gravity of this issue?

    Zambia, Zambia. My Zambia I cry

  3. Lazy Zambians with no financial discipline blaming others for their failures. No foreigner has tied the Zambians hands preventing them from opening stores.

    • This is where GRZ comes in, they are supposed to have schemes to mentor and encourage zambians on running different businesses, the illiterate zambians are left to the mercy of very competitive foreigners and stand no chance of competing.

    • Its the culture of dependency, laziness and hopelessness among Zambians cultivated under Lungu that has caused all this

  4. A someone who was appalled at the behaviour South Africans when they attacked foreigners in their townships I feel deeply troubled and ashamed as a Zambian as what is now happening in Lusaka. I am one of those who said South Africans are just lazy and how can they claim that foreigners are able to run their businesses more successfully. Now Zambians are making the same ridiculous claim. You don’t need government to intervene and stop foreigners from setting up business. How do you fail to compete in your own country? Worse still…these people you are calling Rwandese are now Zambian by naturalisation. They have lived in Zambia for twenty years now and have made it their home, contributed to the economy and our society. This rot should be stopped once and for all

    • These forigners you see, the chinese, indians, nigerians and rwandese come from very high population countries where it is dog eat dog. the very sparsely populated Zambians stand no chance when competing with these pipo.

      Our citizens need coaching schemes on entrepreneurship or else all bushinesses will be owned by foreigners with all monies leaving the country.

      gentelmen it is what it is….zambians can not compete with these pipo without a helping hand.

  5. Well done the Police to bring all criminals to book. These criminals including rioters attacking sections of the community should be dealt with sternly. Law should take its course to manifest the true ideals which Zambia has ever stood for including spearheading & sacrificing for liberation struggle for Africa by accommodating our brothers & sisters from different countries including Rwanda Nationals who have found themselves in Zambia on similar ideology. “Do not mistreat or oppress a foreigner, for you were foreigners in Egypt., says The LORD. Exodus 22:21; Leviticus 19:33

  6. Is this riotious behaviour about the ritual killings or a lack of opportunities and Jobs.
    A hungry man is an angry man.
    Are the police detaining the real murderers or they just need to pacify the public that someone is in custody?
    Bring in Scotland Yard otherwise there is going to be lots of witch hunting an false allegations like the jobless and idle youths in South Africa recently during the Xenophobic attacks on foreigners.

  7. It’s just anarchy. People are being incited to act in this way. The ritual killings have set the opposite effect intended out by the perpetrators who mean’t to frighten and intimidate citizens. Turning on Rwandans of all nationalities is an unnatural reaction. Think the people behind all this knew this will ring alarm bells internationally.

    But citizens must seek out the perpetrators instead. Proper investigation is required. Something is happening in Zambia and we need yo flush these people out.

  8. Am impressed…..i see no hate speech…..i see calls against attacking foreigners….calls for zambians stop blaming others…zambians are impressive..truly a christian nation…..a few *****s will not ruin this place am sure.

    At the heart of all this is really poverty…sadly….not zambians being xenophobic..

  9. Am sure this is what PF says when they say Lungu is a god chosen president. The man can’t even address the nation.

  10. These are just hungry thugs. Who stopped these thugs from openings shops? These foreign nationals used their initiative to open some shops in residential areas when you lazy thugs thought one could only operate a shop from Kamwala. These thugs must be arrested and caged for life. It’s time MPs and Councillors in these affected areas visited their people and calm them down

  11. These people who are involved in these xenophobic attacks on foreign nationals are just lazy to work or do their own businesses hence they are taking advantage of the situation so that they can loot other peoples shops. For starters no one has ever stopped them from opening shops and for me it is stupidity at its best t claim that the Rwandese are taking over their businesses. The police have said they have arrested people in connection with the ritual murders but have not indicated if at all any of those arrested are foreign nationals so why should these people take the law into their own hands? I hope those 254 Zambians arrested will be dealt with severely so that everyone can learn from them

  12. Land, Land , Land. Don’t sell land to foreigners. Ndola has been taken over by Somalians and Congolose.

    Council is refusing to sell land to locals. Only foreingners can buy land in Ndola.

    Mark my words. Xenophobia will come to Ndola very soon.

    • Changanya Zimstyle

      That is very true. Africans are too friendly. Lebanese really, they are broke and at war in their own motherland.

  13. This is njala rioting! ECL eve ali busy campaigning na Siliti when there is a serious issue at hand,busy na Mpezeni flashing meaningless fists when people are starving.When does the guy report for work kansi? Even a ka quick written speech to the Nation nako kulibe.Zambians get serious with whom you elect as “leaders”

  14. Only people at the wrong end of the economic spectrum will do such things. Zambians need some fear instilled in them again. Please shoot just four looters for an example. I hate looters.

  15. This is the kind of thing that cadres of a renowned party celebrates. Chaos, mayhem, bloodshed and now even the alien and obnoxious xenophobia is pleasure to them as they see such sad events as the path to publicity and State House for one, just one individual. They failed during the retrenchments on the Copperbelt, the riots at the two universities, and now they see opportunities again, never mind human suffering. They are no different from the ritual murderers themselves, for how else can you describe anyone celebrating these sad events? Sorry YOU WILL FAIL AGAIN AND AGAIN AND AGAIN etc etc.

  16. These foreigners you see, the chinese, indians, nigerians and rwandese come from very high population countries where it is dog eat dog. the very sparsely populated Zambians stand no chance when competing with these pipo.

    Our citizens need coaching schemes on entrepreneurship or else all bushinesses will be owned by foreigners with all monies leaving the country as is happening now.

    gentelmen it is what it is….zambians can not compete with these pipo without a helping hand.

  17. A Lungu muli ndwiii! Chalo chapya and all you are worried about is your campaign?!? Where is your Christian country where there is supposed to be peace, love and contentment?!? Love thy brethren and such?!? Aren’t you supposed to lead by example?!? You have forgotten?!? And it’s not even a year since October 18?!?
    They do say a fish starts smelling from the head………………

  18. Xenophobic definition, unreasonably fearful of or hating anyone or anything foreign or strange.
    lets learn to use terms as they are supposed to.

  19. President PAUL KAGAME of Rwanda is behind this chaos. He sent money tothosecriminals tocause chaos and so Zambians can root shops owned by Rwandan refugees. PAULKAGAME must be arrested as he is a criminalbehind this

  20. I want to comend the men in uniform who are working day and night to calm down the situation, however iam appealing to all Rwandese living in Zambia to leave immediately back to their country. There is no war in Rwanda so why are they here? Please let them leave at once,we are tired of them.

    • You are *****!! you are ignorant!Rwandan willnever quit Zambia. They cannot go to RWANDA as KAGAME as a killer.All these are hutus,innocent people and they caused noharm tozambians. KAGAME PAUL has sent money to terrorise these people but all will be known. Stop your ignorance!

    • People don’t leave a country because there is a war.Human beings are naturally adventurous and entrepreneurial unless they are dumb like you. People in the present day recognise the world is a global village so they can’t be confined to a so called country

    • Have you ever head Zambians react like this B4? I am not protecting this bad action taken by these very peaceful and sober people, but mistakes which were made by the Police & the Politicians who spilt the information.
      The information ‘rumor’ which ended up with the frustrated public for their consumption is that
      “suspects pointed the foreigners as owners of the items (sets of organs) which they were told to collect, and these were to be removed before the owner dies” What an evil thing.
      However, we thank God for the quick Police action to correct the situation.
      But please not all who were picked were criminals. Thugs ended up joining the protesters for other intentions.

    • if you that is your opinion I tik there is is no difference between you and the people destroying the Rwandese stores. I wonder how the Zambian mind works today you are complaining that there are no jobs. when investors come in you are the first people to say accuse them with bad habbits and reckless behaviour. SHAME on you and those in support with your comment. infact this is the act of hunger not anger so don’t blame anger on your unwise behaviour.

  21. Kill all those Rwandese people. these are killers and genocidaires hutus.Kill them.PaulKagame need them back home

  22. PAULKAGAME OF RWANDA need allthese genocidaires hutus: send them back home. KAGAME will use allmeans toget them.Continue rioting and flush them out

    • You stupid.d Rwandans can you take your genocide rantings off this Zambian site, we ate peacefull pipo and will do our own investigations.

      LT can you block these forigne pipo trying to ferment genocide in Zambia through LT.

    • LT stop sponsoring genocide.delete stoopid posts. How do you allow people to urge others to kill on your site?

  23. @ kamaku, you are the one who is ignorant, who told u that Kagame is a killer? Kagame is the one who stoped the genoside in Rwanda which was perpetuated by Hutus. Those Hutus who dont want to go back to Rwanda are the ones who participated in the genoside. They are the ones who mudered one million inoccent Tusis. Thats why they are scared to go and face justice in Rwanda.

    • yoooo!! KAGAME stoped genocide? it shows how ignorant you are! you memorise the propaganda and say? if you ever went to UNI,do your research and you will find what happened in RWANDA. nohutus commited genocide there. KAGAME started it in order to grab power,and there were killings. Tusti killed 3 millions of hutus and hutus killed about 300000 Tutsi.. you get me? who committed genocide? in CONGO,about 6millions have been killed by THE KAGAME JUNTA,do you know that? You are a total ignorant.You may have been to school BUT YOUR IGNORANT AND UNINFORMED!

    • you are useless and you know nothing about RWANDA except memorising THE PROPAGANDA like KAGAME STOPED GENOCIDE. This man Kagame is a realcriminal: he comes from Tutsi tribe with 10% of population as 90% are hutus. In order to grab power,USA,UK ..helpedhim tokillabout 300000 Tutsi during civilwar.AND these killings were put on hutus .Why? it was geopolitics as USA,UK needed to go to Congo.who is genocidaire then

  24. Every politician in the ruling party is now referring to his/her compatriots as “our people”. I am sure GBM would ask them, ” Imwe ba f…la do you own Zambians?”

  25. Xenophobia is like a decease, it is like cancer. What is happening now is as a result of joblessness, poverty and lack of opportunities for the citizens by the government. Poverty breeds crime and crime distabilises the community. When you have people who have brains like ostriches who burry their heads in sand as leaders, the result is what we are seeing now. Why hasn’t the so called president come out to condemn the violence or does he want it to escalate so that he could imposed a curfew? If Lungu thinks this is right, this is what will happen if he thinks of rigging the elections. State house will burn. People are hungry and angry.

  26. PAULKAGAME is teaching ZAMBIANS How to kill. Kagame is teaching Zambians how tocommit genocide to hutus refugees. The tall is already high. Go,go KAGAME teach those lazy Zambians how to commit genocide as you did in RWANDA. Viva KAGAME and genocide in ZAMBIA

  27. Good !!!ZAMBIANS ARE killing hutus refugees and root!! PAULKAGAME has already given them enough money. Viva kagame and genocide in ZAMBIA

  28. As PAUL KAGAME killed 6millions people in CONGO,now he is teaching ZAMBIANS TOWIPEOUT HUTUS who fled this criminal KAGAME. viva good killer Zambians and go for it as KAGAME HAS INSTRUCTED YOU TO DO

    • Can some one do something to block this hutu genocidal extremist from trying to introduce etheric violence in Zambia?
      HE/she keeps posting rubbish using different names.
      Panyo pa nyko.
      Get off this site, we are not intrested in your genocide

  29. its sad to have such a situation of killing which has resulted in shop looting and xenophobic attack of foreigners…….what do u think the rwandese will do to our brothers and sisters out there…..zambian u claim to be christian nation….behave let the law enforcers do their job……

  30. President PAULKAGAME OF RWANDA who killed 3million hutus in RWANDA ,whokilled 6millions Congolese, has instructed us ZMBIANS to kill these hutus fugitives. We must kill these hutus from RWANDA then own their shops. Then PAUL KAGAME of RWANDA will congratulate us as he is a good man. LET US KILL ALL THESE HUTUS AS SOON AS POSSIBLE.The more we kill them ;the more money we get from PAUL KAGAME

  31. @Marley! you are ignorant!! PaulKAGAME never developed RWANDA. Rwanda is very poor and people are very poor.ONLY 2% of Tutsi living in KIGALI RWANDA are rich as thtat is where KAGAME HAS DEVELOPED. I s this what you call development or growth? you know nothing about RWANDA just PROPAGANDA

    • Zambians are not killers. We might have our own sibling PF v MMD v UPND v FDD democratic ideal struggles but never do we butcher each other let alone our guests.

      Rwandans (Hutu and Tutsi) are free to live and work in Zambia. Zambia is a land of love and peace!

  32. Police do a good job and bring these culprits to book. The nation is counting on you. The ones committing these brazenly evil acts will be identified and justice will prevail.

    PRESIDENT Edgar Lungu says he will not feel ashamed to campaign in churches and ask for support from Christians.

    And President Lungu has charged that the ritual killings in the country are being sponsored by those who are seeking political power, adding that soon, such people will be exposed following the arrest of four people with human ribs in Lusaka.

    Meanwhile, President Lungu says he is not going to allow Eastern Province to become the bedroom of conmen and directed the police to investigate the Ikulile Enterprise scam…

  34. ZAMBIA IS NOT AN ISLAND FOR YOUR OWN INFORMATION THERE A LOT OF ZAMBIANS DOING BUSINESS IN RWANDA AND BURUNDI. THE PROBLEM LIES WITH SOME OF YOU, BECAUSE YOU WERE BORN IN ZAMBIA, BROUGHT UP IN ZAMBIA , WENT TO HALF SCHOOL IN ZAMBIA MARRIED IN ZAMBIA , MIGHT GO TO PRISON IN ZAMBIA, AND WILL DIE IN ZAMBIA . LEARN TO TRAVEL AND SEE OR EXPERIENCE HOW ZAMBIANS ARE TREATED AND RESPECTED OUTSIDE FOR A LONGTIME. JUST TO BE DAMAGED AND DESTROY THE GOOD IMAGE CREATED BY OUR FOUNDING FATHERS. PERSONALLY. IAM ASHAMED TO BE A ZAMBIAN DUE TO ACTION OF PEOPLE LIKE YOU. I DO NOT SUPPORT NO CONDONE THE BARBARIC KILLING OF MY FELLOW COUNTRYMEN AND WOMEN BUT TWO WRONGS CANNOT MAKE A RIGHT .WE ARE SUPPOSE TO LET THE POLICE DO THEIR WORK. JUST PUT YOURSELVES IN THE SAME BOOTS. I THINK YOU WOULD FIND THE…

  35. This type of behavior is barbaric and should be condemned. I for one have no problem with foreigners coming into a country as long as they are legal and they are of stellar character. What we have in Zambia sometimes is the dubious class of person. This also include the Chinese. Immigration needs to be more serious when letting people in. Problem is the brown envelope.

  36. There is no justification for attacking foreigners.. Am surprised that even those of us who are in living outside Zed can find words to condem foreigners…shame!!!!!!!
    There is no other formulae than working hard once again shame on all those lazy Zambian involved including those supporting this rubbish behavior.

  37. Very shameful behaviour from Zambians. This news is tarnishing the image of a said to be peaceful country. Perhaps, South Africans should continue butchering your kin. It’s free for all – open season!

  38. Paul kagame is a hero here, he wants all hutus living in zambia to go back and face justice in rwanda for killing 1million tusis during the genoside. Those who dont want to go back are cowards.

    • @Real Namwanga, you are imbecile and you know nothing about KAGAME.KAGAME is a serial killer who killed 3millions hutus and killed 10million Congolese. You are utter ignorant.HAVE YOU EVER BEEN TO SCHOOL?

    • Wait until they kick your ass where you are. Just because a few characters misbehave you want to label the whole country useless? Please have your self checked, not even where you are residing things are perfect!

  39. I see a real Hutu v Tutsi-Kagame matter in these supposed zambian xenophobic attacks.

    Our Zambia Intelligence Service (OP) must swiftly move in.

    • the situation in ZAMBIA has been penetrated by KAGAMR SPY AND CRIMINALS to finance the killings of hutus: that is why ZAMBIANS MUST OPEN THEIR EYES as soon as possible. Embassy of RWANDA IN LUSAKA has paid $67milion to some corrupt politicians to create chaos and mayhem

  40. The bloggers are missing the point here. The thing is not opening the shops but the Ritual Killings are being accused of.

  41. May Take This Oppotunity To Addres E C Z Akufuna And Mr Isacs Do U See Now What Happens When Pipo A Talking Thease Zambians Hav Bean Telling Police To Arrest Ritual Kilers Long Time Ago But Grz An Police Took It Litly But Becose Pipo Are Now Sirious Today Police Hav Arrest 11suspects akufuna mr isacs pipo ar saying things wil not be good if u giv dubai to print balot pepas but u a not listerning Zambians Ar Just Humans Too They React Dont Say U Wea Not Told Ine Nalanda Epompelele

  42. Lazy Zedians. Waiting for others to open up businesses then loot from them??? With ready food in front of them, Zedians will want somebody else to take a spoon and put the food in their mouths.Lazy indeed…

  43. Telltale signs of what is to come. I think there`s misapplication of the phrase “Xenophobic attacks”. There are not. They`re being looted because they`re suspected of ritual murders, and not because they`re Rwandese. Most of the foreigners have lived peacefully in those communities for decades..

  44. you kill me ,I kill you. we will kill Zambians for having looted our shops. JUST WAIT AND SEE,you lazy bastards!

  45. Comment: All along they were conducting their business quite alright, what has changed you lazy Zambians? And some bloggers can go a mile to politicise this issue even educated ones are doing it.

  46. There is no African alien on the African continent, period. The stupidity manifested by the likes of Mushota, one descended from Mwata Yamvo, a Katangese, stinks! We are all Africans regardless of where we live in the world. Next thing you will here is that Ngonis and Lozis must return down south and Bembas to Katanga! This nonsense must stop and Chagwa must for once in his life show some spunk!

  47. Southern Africans are naturally accommodating and
    peace loving people… thats why ours is the only peaceful
    region on the continent. But, unfortunately for us,
    people from war torn countries see our good nature as a
    weakness that should be exploited to max. Hence, all these former child soldiers we’ve been accomodating for years have zero respect of us as their hosts and disregard the laws governing our nations with impunity.

    As a region we have to decide to either safeguard our borders and preserve of region for future generations or remain docile and watch as these former child soldiers take over every inch of our ancestoral lands and render us homeless.

    And when it comes to immigration; our moronic leaders should learn a thing or ten from Saudi Arabians… not only do the…

  48. I want to join Hevvi Niinga (1.18) in saying that Zambians are by and large a lazy people. They always want to reap where they did not sow. The Rwandese people rose from the ashes of war and genocide to master a collapsed economy and grow it to its current 7% growth in 2015 and 2016. Zambians, despite being able bodied and having favourable conditions for personal growth, want to nest in their laziness and expect the government to spoon feed them like a bird feeds its chicks. Why don’t they learn from the Rwandese thy are harassing?

  49. Have you ever head Zambians react like this B4? I am not protecting this bad action token by these very peaceful and sober people, but mistakes which were made by the Police & the Politicians who spilt the information.
    The information ‘rumor’ which ended up with the frustrated public for their consumption is that
    “suspects pointed the foreigners as owners of the items (sets of organs) which they were told to collect, and these were to be removed before the owner dies” What an evil thing.
    Thank God for the quick Police action to collect the situation.
    But please not all who were picked were criminals. Thugs ended up joining the protesters for other intentions.

  50. Zambians are gud just like bees they can provide everything peave,food,space,time,look foolis etc but if u a fool take advantage and u gonna be shocked afterwards.
    ANGOLAN STAYED IN ZED FOR YEARS NO PROBLEM AND WE STILL CRY FOR THEM BCOS OF THERE HARDWORK IN AGRIC BUT IF U FOLLOW MOST OF THESE OTHERS THEY GOT CAPITAL BY KILLING,ROBBING, DIRTY METHODS.
    ME I CANT SUPPORT THIEVES. POLICE SHUD BALANCE THE WAY U HANDLE ZAMBIANS NOT JUST TO IMPRESS THE WORLD FOR COMMUNITY TO ACT LIKE THAT THEY MUST BE INFORMATION SO GET IT AND USE IT

  51. How stupid do you have to be to say “if you are not 100% zambian” you should leave. How many pure Zambian are there? The majority of “zambians” are mixed and have ties to other countries. Zambia is a massive mix of all colours, cultures and backgrounds. Something we should be proud of and embrace!

  52. The day your relative or son/daughter will be a victim is the the day you will understand why these people went all crazy. tell me something, how many more people do you think would have been killed by now if these people had not taken action? its because of these people that the military are now patrolling. sometimes it is wise to think before blaming someone. and these rwandese have no official documents from immigration, even if the police doesnt want to disclose they did find human body parts in some of their shops. we cant let these people continue killing us otherwise you could be next.
