A ten year old girl of Barton Compound in Livingstone yesterday drowned in the Maramba River after experiencing an epileptic attack.
Leonard Mwiya the grandfather of the girl said his grand daughter suffered from epilepsy for a long time and each time she had an attack of seizures, she rushed to Maramba River in a bid to drown herself but relatives were always on hand to restrain her, but that yesterday no one saw her rush to the river.
Southern Province Police Commanding Officer Lemmy Kajoba confirmed the drowning and death of the girl to ZANIS in Livingstone, adding that the bad news happened around 17:00 hours yesterday.
Mr. Kajoba said the body of the deceased was fished out of the river and that the police did not suspect any foul play. Meanwhile, a 26 year old woman of Dambwa Site and Service in Livingstone suspected of attempting to abort, was last Friday found dead in her bedroom by relatives.
Relatives to the deceased woman alleged that she drank a concoction prescribed by a witchdoctor to terminate her pregnancy but things went wrong and she died in her bedroom.
A check by police at the scene found the swollen body of the deceased, with her tongue turned black and foam at the mouth.
Mr. Kajoba confirmed the death of the woman and that poisoning was suspected although the results for the postmortem which was conducted were not yet available.
He said samples had already been sent to Lusaka for further investigation to determine the cause of the woman’s death.
A man identified as Ronald Sipikili of the same area was yesterday rushed to Livingstone General Hospital after he allegedly drank a concoction prescribed by a witchdoctor to help him enhance his manhood.
Sipikili sourced the concoction in Linda Compound within the tourist capital but upon drinking it, he complained of severe headache and dizziness and was later rushed to the hospital for treatment.
Police confirmed the development, adding that the witch doctor concerned was picked up to help the police with investigations into the matter. Mr. Kajoba warned people to avoid taking concoctions as they posed a danger to their lives.
In September this year, two Livingstone-based men aged 34 and 35 respectively, died after taking similar concoctions which they wanted to help enhance the erection of their manhoods.

My condolences to the bereaved family,to my dear girl may yourest in peace,and may our good Lord receive your soul with gladness.
This makes sad reading. Witch doctor should be thrown into Munkobeko.

How did the young damsel, with a seizure manange to run such a distance. I thot once seized you are rendered immobile. The explanation doesnt fit well here.
What’s wrong with men these days?…Seems there’s a lot of pressure to ‘enhance’ their ‘bedroom’ performance, huh?
My cousin was epileptic, the seizures came without warning anytime any place. She was killed by people who cut off her privates and other body parts for “muti rituals” in kitwe. Bush doctors must be banned, they are no different to false prophets, their only interest is money.
Yangu tata!
some epileptic patients have warning before the seizure.The know when they are about to have one.its called an aura.
Awe shashupe indoshi ba vikara. Fwe bantu we need to stop consulting witchdoctors. Start using modern medicine
Let them start using viagra but again their is 7 hours ku soweto.
There are serious problems in livingstone
she was just tired from having sex
#5, the problem of men taking concoctions is becoming common for two main reasons:
1 To much beer and hence failure to perfom (listen to general
kanene lates album)
2 Women are too much into using vibrators and changing men hence
always complining of not being satisfied by some bobojans
Is this what the locals call ‘Ingulu’?
Too bad for these people more especially the young girl. It was not her choice to a victim of epilepsy.
I don’t really understand why people go seaking for help from witch doctors.These “doctors” even go miles giving guidelines and “MUSAMU” on how to get rich, when themseves are actually poorer than people approaching them.It’s high time we learn that these Bush doctors are just after money,nothimg else.Lets learn to live with what God has given us.If your manhood is not good enough to meet your expectation,then you are not worth living as you are not proud of yourself,which just amounts to not being proud of your creator.STOP GOING TO BUSH DOCTORS,OR YOU WILL ALWAYS SUFFER THE CONSIQUENCES AS THE GUYS IN LIVINGSTON!
May the immediate family to the deceased recieve my deapest simpathy.
Advice to L/Stone pipo. Try Bemba concoctions and you will never regret. But you risk disappearing in thin air. Katele Kalumba style. But it,s worth it you know because you reappear after a few days.
#5,I hope you are being truthfull to yourself,women nowadays are changing men like clothes hence losing the grip,so for a man to satisify such a one concoctions,bosters and other enhencements are introduced.Men would not have been using such things if the ladies,women had kept themselves well.It is because men are trying hard to fill this enlarged circumference and keep this lady to himself or else she will start sneaking men in the house(in this case doms)to find satisfaction (The solution ladies to this isue is “Virgin Pride,Virgin Power”.
#17, Major, To be specific, women nowadays days change men more than they change their underwear.
May her soul rest in peace
Thatis the payment for wanting to shine. even wen you know that a woman changes men more than a pants you also want to plung in there. stay in doors and stick to your women guys otherwise ni hospital case.
Oh no! Men have started perishing as they endeavour to satisfy their unfaithful partners. Meanwhile women continue to jump from one man to the other who in turn go for concoctions and then die. End result will be a world without men and then extinct. Warning to all men. We are an endangered species.
ILyashi lyakukusha ubwamba lyashupa
I wonder if these bush doctors are Zambian citizens. How does one plan to harm his fellow citizen like that for the sake of money? Let them be investigated
Demons as recordeed in the bible sometimes also use epileptic seizures, however, science also states a brain disorganised state of handling signals.
For the girl to want to drown herself is purely a spiritual related problem. We need to reclaim our posittion as christains and start removing imipashi iyakowela.
For manhood enhancement, its a world wide problem in men woh are very consciuos of their perfomance in bed. I believe its just knowing yourself and how well you perform that matters. Wheter enhanced or not, orgasm still takes the same time hence same pleasure for the man.
If a woman is unfaithful, its not because you fail to satify her in bed, no …..think twice before you
What happened to being confinded. Know your women ask them what they want. Otherwise vukavuka will kill us all.
Nabakoswe bayamba ukulya abana.
Men are just difficult pipo to handle. Even when they know
they are not strong enough to manage one woman, they will
go for another one. Your wives keep a lot of secrets for you. Mwakulafwa because ka gelo kalilanda ati she was not satisfied meanwhile your wife keeps it to herself.
The poor girls story makes sad reading. MHSRIP.
However, the other who was found dead is silly if she was trying to abort. The wages of sin is death.
For my collegue who took the concoction, Sex is an art. You can please and satisfy a woman without taking any stuff. Believe me, i know. Mukafwapo fye.
the explanation for the epileptic girl does’nt make sense. when a seizure takes place, the victim is’nt even aware of it and is likely to fall unconscience immediatelly afterwards. so how cud she have rushed to the river? i have dealt with ‘special’ people before.
Children of nowadays, sex at 10yrs?? oh oh oh oh! men muleubwelamo.Practice natu babies
Ala abaume katwishi echo bafwaya. They want to sleep every girl they see. Black, white, coloured,chocholi,indians etc. slim, fat, thin, rubish!
Iwe Mia, wabwela futi. Siumvela iwe. You mean you honestly dont know what we want? are you sure or what? Discuss the issue at hand, not men. Cant you see that your friend died trying to abort?
#31
I know. You only think of sex.sex sex sex
Mia,i luv yo construtive debates and contributions.Admirer.
Thats not what i said. The problem is you too bitter with men. Ever castigating men. You are always moving away from even political issues and talk about sex. What really happened to you kanshi? Did you go through a bad relationship or what. Banzako are complaining of poor performance from us. Iwe you are castigating men. Thats why am saying Siumvela iwe Mia. We need to have a serious chat.
there many different types of epilepsy but most epileptics tend to feel depressed and down after an attack, because they feel helpless this is one of the normal things but for a young girl that age to kill herself…its really sad because this normally happens in older individuals
#33 Brown
Thanx.
the witch doctor is a criminal esp if all the cases mentioned point to him as the source of the medicines.he knows his clients die and deliberately continues to prescribe the same concoctions.let him go to chimbokaila or mukobeko,and his fimofimo shud be measured to see if he is big enough.shame indded.
Somebody help me,
“How do you look at a married couple discussing their sex life ?Don’t you think this is the best solution to problems being faced by some men who opt to using concoctions?”
If women could remain virgins until they “KNOW” only theiir husbands,they would not have sex disatisfactions which I presume originate from comparrisons of the sexual experiences they’ve had with different men.
Somebody respond to me
MHSRIP
# 38!! What makes you think only women should keep their virginity
till they get married. Why not keep yours as well. Do unto others as you wish them do unto you. After all its men who like tasting different dishes. Even when you know the girl’s boy/man firend you stil want to taste. Echo mulefwila.
Nkhani ya tasting is what is killing us #40. Yativuta bad. Nkhani ya tasting. We need to be disciplined.
linvingsto people the like sex,why?every time dambwa died linda is were you find a w/doctcr. livingstone how main man and woman are going to reman to read livingstone. the problem is to much of driking bear (chibuku) the chipest bear.

Ba Monze, please vonse its the same, so don’t be cheated. Just stick to the one you know and used to to avoid these unnecessary deaths. Or else tiza shika manje manje..
#38 – Same goes for men.
#42 LOVERMAN you sound like a grade 3, please check your comment.
#43, Si same vinthu ivi ka? Visiyana depending on fimofimo. as for me, i only have one and i use a condom. You never know, probably she is doing concoctions too. I will inspect.
ati its men who like tasting?tasting what pipo use correct words,do we have taste bads kuli maujeni? tasting is to mouth as ….is to ujeni.donnot use such words,plz why not such phrases as-diff experiences blablabla!anyway those in the habit of flirting will behave like that regardless of whether they are male or female.
My white MaBurus friends want some African stuff to increase the size of their machines and somebody tells them the men from the north of the Limopopo posses real machines, so gents help I will be in sweat ZED in 2 weeks time
That stuff you get from witch doctors dont work..Its not how big your guns are, its how you use em..Think before you shoot, try aiming at the impala, make sure its in the right spot before you kill. Its more like you have all the ingredients but can prepare a meal..
Thats Very Sad And I Hope She Rests In Peace.
Stop saying all those derogatory words about women, there is a big problem, as men and women of zambia we need to change our way of life.Life is not about how powerful one is in bed there is more to life than that.Lets try and focus our lives on things that will build us. And not destroy us.
keep your child with you every single minute now that girl is in heaven with god if you cant look after your child god will
