    • Ba Kaseba take that 13 year old girl back to school,Maureen did it.Your role ba mayo is to look after the vulnerable in society not globe trotting.Chi vera was the best when it came to such issues.Any one remember Hope Foundation?,she gave hope to the hopeless.

    • Kaseba is a modern day Zambian version of Marie Antoinette. She’s a self serving leech who is in it for herself! What exactly has she achieved with her taxpayer paid for air miles? She should go back to UTH and heal the sick!

    • But Ba muka Yama Kaseba is XXXL, and someone even advice her to carry a blacket, she taking all space everywhere she goes.

    • Playing chess on a trash bin so where will people put their trash? And Suvia is letting them do it. Please educate those Tongas on the use of a trash bin. Its not a table to start with.

  1. Pic 1-2 awe ba Emmanuel Mwamba is brave talking with amashilu sure teti bakuma ? Pic 6 has moved me.Becoming a mother at 13 years old.I wonder how old the father of the child is.Looks like defilement has been given a blind eye in the rural areas.Ba stella libongani inchito uko yamoneka.

    • @mo taim
      mwamba has no option but to do, its his duty…. what happened to masebo??,,, she does not look flashly this time around,,she also look like a chinyau,,( makishi in luvale)

      But first lady nizee!!!!! even if am in opposition,,, first lady nchito ilipo! awe naleka… you can sin mwe,,,

    • Ignorance is bliss! Not every mental patient is violent. Violent patients are usually held in isolation.

    • Mo Taim – not all mental patients are violent and vice versa. No need to be afraid. Alot of those men are just depressed about the perils of living in Zambia with no job.

  2. Pic #7 tells a shocking story. She is 13 carrying her 1 year old child. She got pregnant aged 11 or 12 years. Shocker indeed. What a happy face though. All the best Rachel.

    • Why? I haven’t seen anything untold in those pictures? If its patients sleeping on the floor , try UTH! Or is it the Likishi dancing in that open square….. Well I think Luvales also need to show us their culture. Or is it the Chilombo Basic school….
      Well I wish all rural areas had access to clean water like in that photo. I hope Barotseland will continue to maintain its clean environment. Don’t make it dirty!

  3. PIC 6 – Beautiful children. I am shocked that there’s a mother among them. None of them even have boobs! Outrageous!

    Psychiatry ward is making patients crazier!

    Suvia Masebo is Ms. Zambia.

  4. If only the chief never stopped the government and other people from outside to freely move in the province and build as they wished, Western Province would not have been the way it is. One Zambia One Nation has not been embraced by people who smoke indobo there.

    • @FU, Which Chief stopped the government and the so called other people to freely move in the province? How is this even possible? What powers has that particular chief got that he can stop the government from freely moving in the province? Repeating some myth over and over wont make it true. Just cut the crap! Give you tribalism some rest!

  5. Pictures 1 and 2,even if it’s physiatrist hospital,those mattresses panshi napo..sigh!
    Picture 6,13 years and a mother!!uluse

  6. Pic 6. Surely Gentlemen how can that small girl be a mother? I’m perplexed!!!! Yai wachepesha mwana. Wayambila patali vigororo.

  7. What a bunch of hypocrites in Zambia – Christian nation with 13 year old proud mothers. Sickening!

  8. Pic 5 and 6, how do our politicians and leaders sleep at night with so much poverty in a country with abundant resources?

  9. Pic 10 and 11 are not just residents playing chess, they are Livingstone’s own “Bureau de Change”, just saying.

  10. What proof does the photographer has that the baby in Pic # 6 is the biological mother to the baby on her back.? Give us more information. This is a serious matter

  11. Zed,a disorganized,trashy place where few rules are observed ,personal hygeine is taken for granted and politicians are not servants but overlords.Its not rocket science to notice that all the rich nations are the ones that are very organized,take cleanliness seriously and politicians are taken to task by institutional checks.Why is this simple prescription for success avoided in zambia?

  12. Sad really at 13 she is carrying a year old baby! the girl should be taken back to school. She looks cute. Arrest who ever did it.
