  1. If these boys want to be cursed then they can meet that failure of a rat. Why is Lusaka times or any other government newspaper reporting on kaiser zulus thuggish behaviour that son of beech. You see this is reason lungu wants post closed because he can hide all the pf negativity that way.

    • I am none Partisan but what you are doing is immoral insulting the office of the Presidency muleimweneshamo and who voted you the best blogger as all you spit on this blog is rubbish, what if HH is destined to be the President of Zambia one day how would you want people to treat him in that office. Stop this nonsense and grow up these kind of politicking norms you are teaching our children luck wisdom and direction, think of the future and start creating a good precedence. If you want respect respect others. I will can not vote for you the best blogger you are a crap blogger even House fly akwatapo amano you mean the Zambian President is a rat even you are a rat because rats cannot stand in an election with a human being, then you are saying HH is a rat also THINK FOOL!!!!

    • The level of midiocracy in Zambia is scary!
      This is also reflected in a way by the idiocy of some bloggers on this site.
      To think nez and mushota can be voted best whatever is beyond comprehension.
      Mostvof their postings lack objectivity.
      But again that is what you get in Zambia.
      To quote and paraphrase one MC Sata a nation full of feaces!

    • That Indian assistant to Beston Chambeshi should not attend, he may be mistaken for a CAF official and get assaulted by abena Kaiser.
      It is a risk expose those boys to violent thugs.

    • You need to be lectured for being disrespectful to the president and fellow human being. You speak as if you are comming from a differnt planet, lets hope you are on earth otherwise check your thinking.

  2. Why duplicate stories…? Mast has already reported about Kaizer and you want it also to appear in the daily or times… Does mast report what appears in the daily or times of Zambia? Answer me you dull chap!!

  3. We are talking about U20 here you bring politics… You will die of depression and jealousy!!! Move on man…

  4. These boys are AWESOME. Keep up the faith and trust in God. FOOTBALL IS A CAREER, make sure you strive to win and play well at all times. Not after this win, you relax like the SENIOR CHIPOLOPOLO did. Look at the Western (EUROPEAN FOOTBALL PLAYERS) they get paid huge sums of money per week, but they dont relax after purchasing classy cars, buying mansions and practically having the most beautiful wives or women in the world. DISCIPLINE AND KNOWING WHY YOU HAVE CHOSEN FOOTBALL AS A CAREER IS THE KEY. BRAVO ZAMBIAN UNDER 20 FOOTBALL TEAM ,YOU INDEED MADE THE NATION , YOURSELVES,YOUR PARENTS AND YOUR COACH PROUD.

    • NEZ IS ILLITERATE, IGNORANT IN SHORT HE IS AN IMBECILE COZ HE CANT BE EXPOSING HIS ILLITERACY IN PUBLIC. NEZ YOU SOUND NONSENSE, U DONT EVEN DESERVE TO LIVE COZ YOUR CONTRIBUTION TO THE PUBLIC IS TRASH.

  5. Lungu should discipline Kaiser Zulu for misbehaving at the CAF Prize Giving Ceremony. Since Kaiser Zulu rigged the 2016 Election for him & he is therefore untouchable. Lungu is afraid of Kaiser Zulu so he cant fire him. Instead of entertaining these U20 Soccer Youths Lungu should be thinking of his own political future now that the Petition is finally being heard in Court and Lungu’s political career is being determined in the High Court tumoro and on Friday 17 th March 2017 SADC will read the Riot Act to Lungu in Swaziland. The Honeymoon is over for Lungu and he has to answer tough questions such as: Why did Lungu swear himself illegally without a declaration from Concourt? Why did Lungu refuse to handover power to the Speaker of Parliament to allow the Hearing of the Petition without…

    • I think the President should seriously talk to Kaizar.He must know his boundaries.Kaizar is a political advisor to the President. There were no politics at Heroes last Sunday. It was only soccer and only soccer rules applied. Everywhere Kaizar goes he wants to show who he is, even where he’s not needed.

  6. Here is another opportunity to do what Lungu does best, drinking and dancing. But he should something about the stup!d punk who is tarnishing the image of the office of the president.

  7. The boys derseve it becoz they even won Cosafa infact they shold be given their money for winning both Cosafa and Afcon.Coming to Keizar Zulu i shld say he’s a disgrace.

  8. The CAF delegation got perplexed when they heard him complain about black magic, they didn’t even respond to his rubbish, but just thanked Zambia for hosting the tournament successfully.

  9. The young lads did us proud. Well done boys. Kerp it up and always hold you heads up high. But Lungu should publically appologise to CAF for the unrully behavior of his senior Aide Kaizer if he wants them to take him seriously. Otherwise it makes us look like a banana republic; a country of time-wasting jokers.

  10. Lets put politics out of this achievement, i didn’t vote for PF but this is Good move by the president to invite the guys to state house. Look at OBAMA who invited the Cleveland Cavaliers last year when the won the NBA finals and everyone was happy.
    Football unites people if you cant put politics off your head you’ll will die a monga. lets support one another and lets put credit where its due.
    GOD BLESS ZAMBIA ARMY, GOD BLESS SIKAZWETHEGREAT & GOD BLESS ZAMBIA

  11. Useless Chagwa, he better allocate funds to pay these heroes and quit taking flights to foreign countries unneccessarily. Also I hope he does not infect our young boys with his AIDS. Useless Iligitimate President wanna be. HH is useless too before all you !d!0ts starts to think I am a HH cadre.

  12. Well done boys!! This is now over and burred, now we want the government to work with Lusaka Water and Sewerage Company to bring water to Chelston. This is a middle class area and people should not be bathing in buckets. Come on guys do something good for once. People need water more than the street light you are putting. Remember water is life and other countries are even investing resources trying to find water on other planets yet we can’t provide this essential commodity to citizens when we have rivers flowing down into the oceans. Water Engineers, please wake up and show us what your value.
