    • Though such crimes have sadly become common in Zambia in all races, truth be told that most of these half-casts with genes of their South African Boer Grandees are violent, useless, lazy, uncultured and evil unworthy of dating or marrying.They are a legion of disaster but gold diggers. I’m yet to know of any half-cast who is aunthetic, straight and grateful.

    • Nubian, who has hurt you my sister? you seem to be against men so much. careful ka. this is what leads women to lesbianism

    • @ reasonable let me quote from 2020 “@unreasonable its obvious you have issues with halfcastes maybe a rejection in the past from a lady or a thumping received from a golfa chap who knows but truth be told coloureds are hard workers – Lubinda, Harrington (Lozi Coloureds), Mwale (Eastern Coloured), Evans (Southern Coloured), late Kriticles Mwansa even the Sorianos aka Katumbi and co (Luapula Coloureds) and so on. In business you have the Finleys, Hickey who pioneered Radio Phonix. Why the hate mudala? Halfcastes are just as anyone else – a Bemba coloured is Bemba, a Lozi Coloured is Lozi – One Zambia one Nation!”

  1. This case is getting more coverage than the one of the 22 year old young man who murdered his girlfriend and the son. Is it because there is too much money in the Reeves case and some how some where people are getting rich out of the case or there are interests involved. Come on cover fairly and investigate fairly . The police have show too much interest in Reeves case unlike the other. Shame

  2. It will be adjournment after adjournment. Case won’t be concluded within 5 yrs, and if she is well connected she will be released after sentencing at one of Lungu’s prerogative of mercy occasions.

  3. Desperation and frustration for people to survive under this diabolical leadership of pf rats led to these people committing murder. People are emotionally and physically drained in Zambia . I cry for my country

    • You are always lost NED. you don’t even know what people are talking about any more because of your hatred towards ECL and PF, you are temporary incense.

  4. @unreasonable its obvious you have issues with halfcastes maybe a rejection in the past from a lady or a thumping received from a golfa chap who knows but truth be told coloureds are hard workers – Lubinda, Harrington (Lozi Coloureds), Mwale (Eastern Coloured), Evans (Southern Coloured), late Kriticles Mwansa even the Sorianos aka Katumbi and co (Luapula Coloureds) and so on.

    • @2020vision – Well said. Incredible that in this day and age you have people spewing such nonsense which is unsupported by facts; maybe it is a case of ‘alternative’ facts

    • @2020vision & @Just Saying, friends education and exposure is important.

      In the end you find yourself like as the name suits @’un’reasonable talking smack for the whole world to see. It comes to Africa you have people who talk this way but show them J-Lo, Kristina Millian, Alicia Keys ati “awe Baja nibantu”. Sad indeed..
      Fwe ba bemba tu tila ati “Kolwe a seka umunakwe icipato” (A baboon will be laughing at its friends butt but yet they share the same features) eh apa! How someone can gather themselves to sit and blog such hate awe its beyond me

    • you wouldnt even understand even if i told you. Do you know what white priveledge is. how racism, the system, works. Maybe this might be simpler for you two to understand. If you Black,stay Back,if you brown then stick around, if you yellow you mellow. if you white then you alright. with this, i have tried to show you how the tone of your skin in this white supremacist world determines you social and economic status. we saw this in zambia.Blacks lived in chilenje, coloreds in thornpark and then whites in kabulonga. A system of segregation created by the so called white people. the same thing you found in namibia,botswana,zimbabwe,south africa.Dont forget your history gentlemen. this thing is still alive and it plays out even today.dont be foled that the world has changed ati 21st century.

  5. @Bwafya and Bemba man, you guys have never heard of an accomplice? What is the brother held him down while she stabbed him? Two people can kill one person. Even is the actual act of killingnis done by one person.

    • Nabs our point is that this case has gotten more attention than that of the young man aged 22 who killed his girlfriend and son the same day. In shot police have given more attention to Reeves death because there more to it than just murder. Too much money involved.

    • @ bemba man: Daa, its because readers are more interested in this case than the other one, media cover what has following.

  6. @2020 u missed the point. check the colored u mentioned and tell me how many of them r rotten. u can’t kid nobody. there certain character traits in colored that r dysfunctional. let’s start with identity crisis……..

    • @gargolye I served in the Zambian Army for 11 years and had a hard working honourable certain Lt Colonel as my superior, he was mixed (a quarter Portuguese) by definition he was a halfcaste really- no one can convince me that coloureds are different from anyone.
      Elo so many Mazabuka and Kalomo Tongas in truth are coloureds with their ancestors being the first early British settlers that came into Zambia almost 2 centuries ago. So are you going to write off those as well? Be fair. As a Senior Blogger I know what I’m saying. Are all Tongas backward? Are all Bembas thieves? Are all Lozis flithy? Are all Easterners lazy and liars? Are all Lambas incestous? Of course not!

  7. Bigotry and Racism is so rife on this blog and by extension Zambia as a whole. So we should not white when white supremacists label us

  8. Those of us who have had dealt with Reeves in most of the deals know or knew him as a greedy person ,
    Reeves always wanted the lion’s share despite all people participating equally in all deals ,
    Yes it was wrong to have stabbed him to death but the guy was too greedy and some how it costed him , am only being Frank , I don’t know the circumstances that led to the fight but the guy was Bad news in all aspects concerning money

  9. What kind of law to we have in Zambia ??? So if am fighting with my boyfriend and he eventually dies in the company of my sister then it means tumwipeye babili or its the police who are dull or lufyengo fye ?
    So if a wife is killed by her husband in presence of there siblings and a mother in law to the deceased then it means the in-law is also part of the crime ,.
    Am not a lawyer , judge nor a jury but this is strange ,
    So if it means to fight or stab each other we just have to be two of us and no witness ,
    Can someone educate our dull policemen , OLO nichekeleko syndrome

    • The were charged after preliminary investigations. Did you conduct your own investigations to the effect that you can’t understand why the brother is co-accused? It’s not ulufyengo, nor police dullness that the brother is charged as well. It is the investigations done so far which have brought in the bro.

    • You’re right just because they are getting free money from this case they are so much interested in one case when there is a young poor man aged 22 who killed his girlfriend and son and cops and media have not taken any interest . Boring money lovers
