  most pictures are super good, except Mpezeni. How can ichinyau be in a Chrysler and not on a horse or humble donkey?

  YOU ARE SPOT-ON MUSHOTA, THE CAPTIONING OF THESE PICTURES IS RUBBISH AS EVER BEFORE. THE THING IS JOURNALISIM IN ZAMBIA HAS SIMPLY, “GONE TO DOGS”, OR VICE VERSA. THERE USED TO BE JOURNALISM OF INTERNATIONAL STANDARDS WITH PROPER GRAMMAR IN ZAMBIA. ALAS! THAT IS ALL HISTORY. ZAMBIA DAILY MAIL DOESN’T EVEN CAPTION AND THEIR IMAGES DON’T EVEN EXPAND. MAYBE THEY DON’T EVEN KNOW IMPORTANCE OF EXPANDABLE AND CAPTIONED IMAGES. WITH THE TIMES OF ZAMBIA- ONE CAN’T EVEN READ THE HEADLINES. THEY ARE INCOMPLETE. IT’S SAD HOW JOURNALISM IN ZAMBIA IS GONE TO DOGS AND IS NOW MOVING TO PIGS.

  Mushota I feel sorry whoever the brain dead de.generate married you. You are the most negative homo sapient I have ever come across. You must have a very unhappy marriage that is why you spend all you time on Lusaka Times because he doesn’t touch you.

Balling with Mpezeni!

Kabwe is very polluted. Why even bother with a Mall. The town should be quarantined.

  A police officer with skiing groves guarding Mpezeni. I think growing up in Chipata is a sin.

  The mall is near Mulungushi Textiles. Kabwe deserves to be declared a city too

Mpezeni is too old for that car.

Maamba collieries you bring investors who give the technical jobs to their own people…really laughable.

“The proposed site is situated in the Zambezi river.” I am glad it is situated IN the Zambezi River!!!!

The toll plaza looks good but is tiny and dangerous in the long run. They should have constructed a dual carriage way of three kilometers on either side and terminating in about three to four lanes to provide safety to workers as well as motorists. It is all that simple. A booth can never just start at a “Short range!” Travel and you will see and learn! The only goodness is that Hazaluza Hagain!

Kitwe needs a new KMB Station and Market too!

Yabaa dancing for young footballers? Why honestly…. old style still living…

Mushota…spot on!!! We need a detailed account of these photos taken especially the toll plaza in chisamba, etc what it means for the economy of zambia…

NRFA has been collecting a lot of money from the operational Toll Plazas. But the roads are actually deteriorating. What is going on NRFA and your partner RDA?
bla bla February 25, 2017 At 11:46 am

While the toll plaza is still of low standard it is definitely better than the nonsense that is currently in Kapiri.
I hope those chinese operating the Maambo thermal power plant are their only during this inception phase and will hand over to Zambians to operate and manage the facility sooner than later. I guess it all depends on what was agreed upfront.
Mpezeni’s procession…I am always disappointed that there is no planning, protocol or pomp and splendour in Zambia when it come to public events and processions…be it a traditional ceremony, event involving the President or sports men. Look at the disorderliness in Mpezeni’s procession? Look at the arrival of the Senegales football team….those traditional dances had no place being there. What is it with those roses? Same…
Meki Banda February 28, 2017 At 1:51 am

The power plant looks great, I cant wait to see the dam. Mpezeni looks great too its nice to see zambians keeping their traditions makes me proud to be african.
