Drunkmaster targetting any strong voice against him. After reading what Obvious said to The Post yesterday, I am not surprised he has been arrested
That’s not chisala in picture. That’s Obvious Mwaliteta. I think Lungu dislike name Obvious.
Why do we have a picture of Obvious Mwalitela?? What desperation to try and tarnish the squeaky clean image of our hard working member!
Obvious?, Obvious who? Obviously the picture used is for Obvious Mwaliteta and not Chisala.
Why?
Not immediately obvious…
Wrong picture, is it deliberate?
Kaili Mwaliteta is next
OBVIOUS CHISALA AND OBVIOUS MWALITETA ARE DIFFERENT PERSONS. ITS WUITR OBVIOUS OUR JOURNALISTS SPEND VERY LITTLE TIME OR NONE AT ALL TO RESEARCH. THE USUAL POOR READING CULTURE.
They should also inform people that obvious Chisala is a PF member who is standing as an independent.
They should be sued thats when they will learn to be accurate.
Ba LT mulebako serious, why use an innocent person’s picture? Any way ako kene ka Chisala bekete kalitumpa, they blindly supported mouse tooth and now they are just paying for their irredeemable sins.
LT might want to quickly remove the picture and apologise. Alternatively, they could slack and be sued and ridiculed.
