Arrest them …. no one from eastern, muchinga ,luapula and northern…..
Arrest Mushota and munone, terrible, Richard sakala and his brother….
Even Tasila Lungu… I forget…. she is building flats along Kalomo road
What is K12,459 euros? Kikiki pf journalism, just checking the mwaliteta court case in progress , the usual state fimofimo incompetence.
But why the cases are so old, including Chituwo in 2012, that’s why everything is between dates unknown.
ACC is worse than courts…. Too slow, like singing Zambia national anthem.
I am not seeing anyone from GBMS Engineering …. corruption is a two way
I thought they were arrested for presenting wrong information about the weather
It beats me how people are using analogue methods to try to hide their tracks in a digital age
Kikiki, even deadNBC is still analog, when others have gone HD. the Zambia vs mocabique game on deadNBC was looking so grayish more less like black and white, but on Supersport it was marvelously HD.
too bad for my friend Dr. Kanyanga
I thought that they were arrested for giving the country too little or too much rain or for the extreme cold weather experienced this year.
Quick to arrest but what about doras case it has died a natural death
If you steal tribe has nothing to do with it
My word, I have never seen K12, 459 Euros… Can someone tell me the existence of this composite currency.
@The Binomial Expander
Only in Zambia can this currency exist. I wonder what the exchange rate would be.
corruptly solicited for K 12, 459 Euros cash each

Incompetence as usual.. 2015?? Where was the ACC this whole time? Gathering evidence? Really?
If you must steal, make sure you are PF or the arm will reach for you!
Only wondering how people in different places could be arrested at one together!
Three of them were on contract just to steal….and make life hard for hardworking staff who are not in good books with….
