The Zambia Police Service has arrested five people in Kanyama in connection with the confusion that reigned in the area today.
Police Spokesperson Ndandula Siamana said the five were arrested after some unnamed people stoned and set ablaze two vehicles following speculations that there were some pre-marked ballot boxes in one of the vehicles.
Ms. Siamana told ZANIS in a telephone interview in Lusaka today that five have since been charged with conduct likely to cause breach of peace and malicious damage.
The Police Spokesperson said there was also minor confusion in Kabwe which was also caused by delayed opening of voting resulting in the smashing of the vehicle belonging to the Electoral Commission of Zambia (ECZ).
Meanwhile, peace has returned to some parts of Lusaka and Kabwe were confusion reigned due to delayed opening of the electoral process at selected poling centres in Lilanda, of Matero constituency, and Kalingalinga in Munali constituency.
Ms. Ndandula said peace and order was restored and voting had continued to go on normally.
She said police was on the ground and will continue to keep eye on the situation and warned all trouble makers of stern action.
Ms. Ndandula said the police will continue to undertake patrols across the country during this period as the public awaits election results.
She also advised the public against taking the law in their hands but follow laid down procedure as stipulated in the law.
She further warned that police will not entertain any lawlessness from members of the public during this period.
A riot erupted in Kanyama after some people claimed they found a man carrying pre-marked ballot papers for national elections.
Late opening of voting is said to have caused confusion in Lilanda and Kalingalinga compounds in Matero and Munali constituencies respectively.

SATA527 (five two seven), RB97 (nine seven) Misamfu poling station kasama
Zambians never keep time
Good work madam keep it up with the GOOD work
Cage them for a year, Zambia is for all of us. I voted too
Now all the work has been done. Let’s wait for the results.
Thanks for caging these paranoid PF neanderthals! They are alarming the nation without cause and I pray you make them ‘chosa nsapato’ and beat the living daylights out of them. By end of tomorrow, we’ll have a winner and the rest will be wailing.
Lock them for years without trail so that they can rot.
Tiye bazakambila kusogolo!
More police officers re-deployed to Mansa!!! Was there a threat for violence there also?
chanzelu walai’s cousin AND Big Pipe….Thats not the way to go. Zambia is for all including some of us who do not support either MMD or PF…lets learn to be civil about national issues but since you have chosen to be otherwise..i have a message for you..
**** **** *******!!!!!!!!!!
ka Ndandula nako kasuma mwe. she makes ZP look good.Â
You must have a very ugly wife/girlfriend or mother. That nose? If my son brought me that thing,I would ask him to go and look again.
Very interesting encounter on znbc between mr sata and edward mumbi. mr sata: mwalimunako umuntu ati am former sg for pf, he cannot  find another job. mumbi: you are claiming that you built the bridges when they were done by government. mr sata; which govt? which govt?  mumbi; the kaunda govt! mr sata; the council built the bridges.mr sata; you *****. mumbi; you see can you be a president behaving like that. mr sata: you are just an *****. balekuponona pofye pano. these same pipo. mumbi: you are jst bringing confusion in this country
I’M happy we thwarted that school in KANYAMA by letting the thugs do their own damage. OUR clever intelligence wings made the illiterate homos burn their own materials ba fikala amafi mwitoloshi
The violence that you are witnessing is just a piecemeal,let it be seen that sata is loosing and you will see.red berets were suppose to have been deployed in savage areas like kanyama,mandevu and matero.our cops are useless they can’t manage to contain full scale violence.if they can not control hooliganism at a football match what more violence initiated by sata.
Shocked to see PF leader MCSata almost beating his former SG Mumbi. I now understand why Sata can’t be a president of even the smallest country in Africa.
 #6 follow the news ubututu tebu,, we have peaceful election. So far all the cases I have heard its PF members who are reporting them,, what can you say ba MMD? Ms. Ndandula,, you look serious. Thats cool where is Brenda?
Awe sure ka ndandula ni Ziii!!!! Kasuma sana!!
TIME IS TIME. WHY THE DELAY, WITH ALL THE PREPARATIONS THAT WAS ASSURED. WHEN WILL THIS ECZ LEARN. THIS IS 21ST CENTURY BANE. WE ARE NOW PREPARED FOR THE RESULTS, WELCOME, MR PRESIDENT.:)>-
BUT I HAVE LIKES HER BEAUTY…..
cane them
Next time ba LT don`t put on that foto. some of fwebashimbe we are admiring kamayo aka,, Ulimusuma mayo or sorry mbwana
BA ZAMBIA, WE ARE ENTERING A NEW ERA. Â THIS IS EXCITING!!! I PRAY THAT WILL CONTINUE TO PREVAIL
#16, 18, 20…honest comments…beautiful Tonga girl!
fellow bloggers honestly you cant expect people to be calm when the same gvt was boasting of having put everything in place,the ecz assured the whole nation that all was well,why should most of the polling stations not have ballot boxes and papers?it is a shame to ecz its the worst we have had.
the incidents happened in compounds where people are angry and hungry so ecz should be aware of such things,in avondale chainda people started at 9hrs frm 6hrs and people waited,ecz should be ashamed for having huge salaries for doing shody work.
@ #11 Pompwe. Your name is just about right. MMD obviously.
You must have a very ugly wife/girlfriend or mother. That nose? If my son brought me that thing, I would ask him to go and look again.
Yak!
Chakukalipa sana. is yo mama and wife so urgly that u cant bear to see good looking pipo. chimbwi i
#22 Why is tribe always mentioned. A Zambian is a Zambian regardless of their tribe! We have inter-tribal marriages in Zambia. One day al;l Zambians will just be known as Zambians and wich tribe they come from. An intelligent man like HH will be elected as Zambias president. We will not look which tribe he comes from and Zambia will prosper. We will stop electing old presidents. That is the future.
ECZ ARE PART OF THE RIGGING SYSTEM. THIS ISSUE OF DELAYING HAS ALWAYS BEEN WITH THEM SINCE 1996.THE GUYS PLAY A BAD BALL IN THEIR OWN PEOPLE FORGETTING THAT THEY HAVE RELATIVE WHO WILL NEVER HAVE ACCESS TO THE MONEY THEY BEEN GIVEN BY MMD.LESA TALALA IYO. YOU CAN HIDE, TRY TO CHEAT BUT GOD’S FINGURE IS ALWAYS POINTING AT YOU.
The madam for once she is beautifully made, she is cute I wonder why she is not married? please if somebody knows any of her contact, send it to me I wish to know Ms Siamana more, she looks really good
The woman has a very big nose.
NDANDULA, SO CUTE. YOU ARE MORE BEAUTIFUL THAT DORA,
#29, all the more to smell your stinky b.a.l.l.s with. Why are complaining, makaka?
#31. Ba nocall e tall lay ukufota.
Lusaka Times may you please update us…… which polling stations closed after 18hrs, which is being counted now etc…
good Job ZP trouble makers should be arrested and let the winner win this is democracy period.
#29 am sorry. I meant uyo shimabwansa at # 30.
Why not arresting Willian Nthele Yankhondo Thekere Banda.?News is circulating that he is a brother to this man named BWEZANI nzelu zakale zandewo Mbandiyo
Do you LT have a space to strem on some election results?
Election violence will only go out of Zambia after the Cobra is gone from the scene. He is the architect of violence. Lock the rooters for a year.
Ha ha ha ha ha. William Banda is shooting at people. Arrest the Bastard. Ba MMD nabebila ichani.
WHY SAME OLD PHOTO OF THIS LADY………..?
Very very sorry fellow bloggers I know u are discussing a very serious issue but as u know love is also a very serious issue. # 11 Pompwe plse ur advice is sought, is this lady Ndandula married, oh she is so pretty I would like to have her for myself until death do us part.
