Kafikepo mayo, we will surely miss you.
Rest in peace, Rosario. Your husband Caleb, your children, family and friends will dearly miss u.The PF backbench will never be the same.
Hooo I thought she was Caleb’s brother. Truely when couple live together for many years, they start looking alike.
this woman has left a mansion, money,cars mention it. while some you have never seen zebras,antelopes and kudus, she had them all right at her residence!
just thinking how life is vanity of vanities! we accumulate all the wealth in the world,we become greedy and mean and envious…and yet we leave with nothing!! go well Rosaria!
HH shouldn’t risk to go campaign in Chilubi island. Was in Chishi, Mbabala and Chilubi islands on Lake Bangweulu.. very dangerous journey. Either by air or boat, it’s high risk. I will never go there again!!
Let Ba Edgar go campaign… I challenge you PF, gather all those cadres you take to Kaoma, go to Chilubi for campaign.
MYSRIP
They worked hard for what they have, they didn’t steal like some people.
Go well Mrs Rosario Chailunga Fundanga. A great and good friend you were. You will be missed. May the comforting and strengthening hand of the Almighty be upon your husband, children and entire family. MYSRIEP
REST IN PEACE MAMA,JUST SURPRISED THAT YOUR PARTY PRESIDENT WON’T ATTEND BECAUSE IN THE ZAMBIAN CULTURE MR.EDGAR CHAGWA LUNGU WAS SUPPOSED TO BE AMONG THE MOURNERS.IS OUR PRESIDENT A TRUE CHRISTIAN BELIEVER ?
For the first time this Lungu has attended the funeral home oh I forgot he is flying out for a pointless working visit to the middle-east so will not attend the burial but I know for sure that in the next few weeks he will be flying to Chilubi for countless working visits.
Rest in peace Mrs Rosario Chailunga Fundanga. Thanks for your contribution to humanity through the communities you worked with.
