  1. #2 Spaka. It’s been confirmed that these vandals were ” revenging” against Kanganja. The Provincial ZP chief is just being diplomatic in his statement. Remember the Upnd chairman said Mwinilunga has now been liberated. This part of the liberation. Don’t gloss over this, just condemn.

  2. @Spaka you really miss Kaizar Zulu…he’s a funny guy…brotherly fights…but he’s a very nice guy to hang out with..I don’t know much about Tarino Orange and De Javu or Tikki
