A Kalabo woman gives birth on her way to sell vegetables

A twenty year old woman from Liuwa constituency in Kalabo has given birth to a bouncy baby girl behind some stalls and restaurants at Kalabo Boma harbour.

Namushi Mutoiwa of Salunda Village in Chief Kaongolo’s area in Kalabo district gave birth to a female baby at around 10 50 hours yesterday.

Namushi gave birth immediately after crossing the Luanginga River at Kalabo Boma harbour while in a team of three other women as they were on their way to Kalabo Boma’s Kashitu main market to sell some vegetables.

A source in the team told ZANIS that Namushi started complaining of labour pain as they were approaching the Luanginga River and gave birth at the harbour immediately after crossing the river.

Namushi was rushed to Kalabo district hospital for medical attention soon after she delivered.

  1. You see why we need mobile hospitals??? Viva RB Viva. Dont worry this wont happen again. We are sending you a mobile hospital in Kalabo.

  2. so ati news, well let me also report that a man fell of a bicycle at a market in chadiza district and scratched his toes,

  3. Poverty levels are too high in Zambia where even pregnant women are forced to go and sell vegetables. Some twits are busy bragging about the unseen development they claim to have brought.
    VOTE SATA IN 2011.

  4. Mmake Mpundu you are so right. Is this news? This happens everyday. Are media so lazy they cant do stories they give people anything?

  5. MOBILE HOSPITALS WAS A WAY OF STEALING FROM US……RB HAS FAILED TERRIBLY AFTER 47 YRS OF INDEPENDENCE SOME ONE CANT BE GIVING BIRTH UNDER A TREE…..WHICH DEVELOPMENT AR THY TALKIN ABT…..

  6. I wonder whether it is right for LT to write female baby. This is not acceptable in modern society where respect is the chore of good relationship.

  7. unless one is so blind that he cant even touch his own belly, development is there you f.o.o.l.s

  8. Congratulations sister. But please don’t let them send your pictures to George Kunda and his headman R.Banda, they will misinterpret it.

  9. It has to b someone else’s fault that the poor young lady didnt know she was about to pop.
