The Nigerian government has given Zambia $250,000 for mitigating the effects of floods that hit the country early this year.

Nigeria has also donated mealie meal, cooking oil and blankets to flood victims, worth more than K200 million.

That country’s minister of State for Foreign Affairs, Bagudu Hirse, says his country is concerned with the frequent occurrence of floods in Zambia.

Speaking when he presented the donation to Vice President, George Kunda, in Lusaka Mr. Hirse observed that the floods have had devastating impact on infrastructure, crops and people.

He said natural disasters are a set back as scarce resources are directed at addressing effects of the

calamities.

And Mr. Kunda paid tribute to Nigeria for supporting Zambia in various fields.

Mr. KUNDA said it is gratifying that Nigeria is concerned with the challenges facing Zambia.

Meanwhile, hunger is looming in Makungwa Ward in Kasenengwa Constituency.

Makungwa Ward Chairperson, Luckson Zulu, said people in the area were now surviving on mangoes and are wondering what else they will be eating when mangoes become off season.

Mr. Zulu called on government to immediately send relief food to the area, adding that, during the previous farming season, most of the farmers did not do well because of the late delivery of farming inputs.

He further appealed to government to sink boreholes in the area. Mr. Zulu said out of 180 villages in Chief Madzimawe’s area, 115 did not have safe and clean drinking water as they lacked boreholes.

He said being a leader in the Ward, people were looking to him as a mouth piece to speak on their behalf to government about the problems they were facing.

Mr. Zulu said the Ward Councilor, Festus Miti, does not know the problems people in Makungwa Ward are facing because he lives far away in Mchini Compound in Chipata and did not often visit his Ward.

And the Office of the Vice President has dispatched a team of officers to assess the hunger situation in areas hit by floods during the last rainy season.

This will enable government ascertain the amount of relief food required for people in the affected areas.

Deputy Minister in the Office of the Vice President, Guston Sichilima, says the officials have also been tasked to assess the damage caused by the recent rains.

He told journalists in Lusaka that the officials left for their assignment over the weekend while others left on Monday morning.

Floods destroyed crops and infrastructure in a various parts of the country during the last rainy season.

Over the weekend, some members of parliament told ZNBC news that their areas are facing food shortages.

They appealed to government to send relief food to the affected constituencies to prevent loss of lives.

  1. Zambia forward, in tune with the Nation!

    Thank you LT for providing only sensible animations:
    :)>- UNIP, MMD l-), UPND =; others :-@

    Thank you very much Nigeria and Nigerians. We need all help we get get from everywhere.

  2. Even Nigeria is making donations to Zambia. Iliko bad!

    By the way, how much does the Merc that George Kunda is shown alighting from cost? ^:)^

  4. This is serious hypocrisy, nigerians are seriously fighting hunger and they choose to donate to zambia and not its own pipo, well african politicians always misplace priorities.

  7. Let’s all be very careful what we say. Remember that it is more blessed to give than to receive, so the Nigerians have got the blessing, no matter what you say.

  8. Ya am embarassed really we even now taking donations from our poor fellow Africans. Awe mwe..no comment by the way I think I have found the PF symbol PF= =))

  12. I smell a rat. Donation, my foot. Are they not people starving in Nigeria? I mean masses of people. Fighting within their country men fleeing everyday. Zambia, please.

    Am actually more concerned about what we have to PAY in return for their “US$250,000” INVESTMENT. l[-x

  15. >-)The donation is genuine because it is coming from a fellow African country. I always doubt donations from Europe and America. Thanks Nigeria for showing that we can help each other as African countries. >:)

  18. chineke ! wats occuring ? something fishy indeed . they need to donate those nigerian outfits to Tamara . since when have we had help from Nigeria i dont like the sound of it . watch this space fellow zambians we must be heading for disaster ! :((

  21. Nine Chale how are you bro.wankopela boyi,that is the same scripture that was in my mind as well.Okay I will use another one.God blesses a cheerful giver.So Nigeria is blessed,lets us also give something to our friends zimbabwe so that we can also be blessed.

  23. Zambia must forget about having back the cream out here with this kind of leadership. I must say that we have exalted politicians up high and yet they are servants of the people who put them in the office. What has Shang’ombo, Chinyingi, Malole and other remote places have benefited since MMD came into power? I personally will not apply for the new passport and will rather remain an exel like Chungu — sorry Chungu decided to go back home at his own accord

  24. I strongly believe that zimbabwe will get over her situation,pick up and pregress far much better than zambia,we will be crossing to zim for buttercup again.we seem to be going backwards.

  25. #21 Matworld, I’m cool bro. just getting ready to hit the sack now. Nigerians have a good thing going on and we need to unite with them. If only Africans knew how much the world fears a strong, united black continent, we would never even waste time playing the jealous game.

  27. Ba Chale that’s are you one of the advisors to the chancelor of German or may be you are one of those intallectuals that Obama uses for econonic consultations? mwalanda bwino ze biggy in your last comment kwati ni stateman.

  30. Make sure it’s not black dollar!lol

    On a serous note, those donations should have gone to Zimbabwe where our brothers and sisters are suffering.

  31. Wow! End of civilisation now, Zed has just gone to the dogs even Nigeria? Look at the people of the Delta region in Nigeria, well Zimbabwe sounds more reasonable, forget about this Mugabe and even this so called Tsvagirai* and focus on the plight of our brothers in Zimbabwe who are having this man-made economic, health and food Tsunami. Contrast this with RBanda dancing and laughing in every single picture he is taking now as though he is on honeymoon or advertising for Colgate. Where are the promises of fuel cut, mealie meal, farming inputs, even free Sugar he was promising? Well indeed to the dogs.

  39. RB went to Nigeria a week ago, knashi he went to beg ka? 419 scams are on the way to Zed. Never give your bank details to Nai-Nai bruvs. They will sweep your bank accounts clean….

  40. I wonder what would happen if there was to be war in Zambia.God forbid i cant happen,but its just that i fail to understand situations where people are eating mangoes now in eastern province. In southern province people are eating poisonous fruits. And 1 of the deputy ministers says there is nothng wrong with eating poisonous fruits, as long as people get some energy. What an insult to the people suffering.Anywa let me sleep because some 1 here can express his hatred for Sata and i might respond badly. Gudnite people!

  41. DONATION FROM NIGERIA????????????N.I.G.E.R.I.A?????????? YOU MUST BE JOKING. DO YOU KNOW WHO YOU ARE DEALING WITH????????PLEASE DO NOT SELL OUR ZAMBIA. NAPAPATA PLEASE 😕

  43. The truth is Nigerians need this food more than Zambians.I don’t understand the motive behind the donation. RB is so blind about Nigerians. I understand they have opened a bank in Zambia. Tukalila one day. BOZ, please monitor that bank closely.
    In the UK, police have admitted that Nigerians are giving them a hard time. They are involved in all sorts of activities and crimes. so careful Zambia.

  45. #43, I agree with you entirely. When does a sweetener become a bribe. These Nigerians are very advanced crooks and if we are not careful, we shall have half our country taken before we realise it. I would take anything from Nigerians with a pinch of salt. They may one day demand a ransom we may never afford as a country. Watchout and remember how many of us lost money in the defiunct BCC (Bank of Crooks and Criminals) of course not its real name but that is what it was ultimately.

  49. I GREATLY ADMIRE TSWANA POLITICIANS. THEIR HEADS ARE FULL OF GREY MATTER. WHILE ZAMBIA’S POLITICIANS’ HEADS ARE FULL OF HUMAN SH!T. HOW CAN A COUNTRY WITH FERTILE SOIL, PLENTY OF WATER, (AND MINERALS) HAVE THIN COWS WHILE A COUNTRY THAT IS ENTIRELY A DESERT HAVE FAT COWS, 7/24 POWER, 7/24 TAP WATER, WELL FED PEOPLE? ZAMBIANS DESERVE BETTER LEADERS. WE ARE SUPPOSED TO BE DONATING, NOT DONATED-TO.

  51. Whatever the motive is for donating to Zambia, Lets think of what help to give Zimbabwe.Our neighbours are in dire need of help. :”>

  53. ~48, does the world bank or IMF donate to anyone or they lend? You need to know what you are talking about before exposing your ignorance.

  54. the car George Kunda is coming out of is a VIP S63 mercedes, over $150k, why didnt he just sell the car and get a 504,,,, better than selling the country

  56. I am sure they mean well. Their foreign minister (Bagudu Arse) seems like a nice man. You just don’t want an influx of naijas in zed.

  61. Nigeria opens bank in Zambia as the only bank to offer credit cards. Nigeria sent a huge representation for Mwanawasa funeral. Nigeria were among the first to congratualte RB for getting to plot 1. Nigeria was the first country RB visited on official bilateral terms. All this happened when RB was either acting or working president of Zambia. Watchout this RBNigeriamania thing, dont say we never saw it coming!

  62. As much as it seems anoying receiving this donation from Nigeria, remember that in 2000 Zambia donated medicines and money to Mozambique government to those victimised by flood in the same year except that ths has become a habit to Zambia.

  63. To you all. What is wrong with getting help from your neighbor if he/she is in a position to give it. Someone does not need to solve all their problems before they give help. Tell me which is the poorer of thge two, Nigeria or Cuba? I think Cuba is and yet when Cuba donates none of you raises objections. Seems any help from within Africa is not help. People are so intoxicated by western or whiteman’s help even when we all know how such help has led us to where we are today.

  64. OOOOO What is it now? Chineke eee, God forbido, Nigeria! what a mess we got ourselves into, next time will have Nigerians trying to sell oil on katondo street.Be very careful fellow Zedians.

  65. Ba Rogue Trader you can think mudala. The man is happily alighting from a Benz but his fellow country men are dying of food. One wonders where we are going with such greedy leaders. Nigeria donating to Zed, this just show how a mockery we are at continent level

  66. You see him smiling?, that smile is on his face because that $250 000 we at least help him fill up his foreign account

  73. What the hic! Donations from Nigeria!Wat were they thinking….who trades with nigerians.?..u have to be a real genius to outwit there behaviour..or should l say a real crook!

  74. What’s wrong with Nigeria donating to Zambia? They have the resources and can afford it! When the west(US and allies) donates, nobody says anything but come Nigeria, you all make noise!! A beg make una go sidon o jare!!

  75. # 31 KAMBA KAMBA, i don’t need to comment because i agree with you 100%. What in the world, did they decide that without my knowledge. Scammers are on their way to Zed.

  76. irony, isnt it. Today they increase their salaries before they even start working and then the following they go begging. There is no serious contry which can trust nigerians. i really mis LPM. :((

  77. Trust me, there is something Nigeria needs from Zambia. It will not be long before we find out. By the way, they will be done by then. Don’t you guys recall what Senegal did to usin the 80s? So we need to be asking ourselves what these guys are up to.

  78. #63 SHULL&BONES. WHO DESERVES HELP? ZAMBIA OR ZIMBABWE? THE MOST HONOURABLE THING THE WHOLE AFRICA CAN DO IS TO BAILOUT ZIMBABWE IN ANYWAY POSSIBLE. ZAMBIA DOES NOT NEED SUCH HELP. BUT, CONGO AND ZIMBABWE. BY THE WAY #61 THERE ARE NO ATMs IN NIGERIA. ATMs CANT SURVIVE THERE. THEY CAN JUST BE UPROOTED. NIGERIANS ARE CLEVER. THEY KNOW THAT ZAMBIANS ARE DOMICILE (AS THEY CALL US) AND EXTREMELY POOR. SO A CREDIT CARD WILL BE ABUSED BY ZAMBIANS MUCH TO THEIR (NIGERIANS) PLEISURE. DONT THINK U CAN EAT THEIR MONEY AND NOT PAY BACK. THEY WILL EMPLOY CHAPS TO KILL U 1 BY 1. BE WARNED. BREAD IS THEIR MIDDLE NAME. FOWLS OF IDENTICLE PLUMMAGE CO-EXIST WITH RB.

  79. YOU ZAMBIAN MINISTERS. SURELY THE PEOPLE WHO VOTED FOR YOU BAKUNYA MADZI IMWE MUGULA MA MERC YA US$150,000. AND YOU ARE FEELING VERY COMFORTABLE. YOU HAVE ABSOLUTELY NO MORAL PRINCIPLES. YOU ARE SIMPLY A BUNCH OF CROOKS. YOU HAVE EVEN INCREASED YOUR PERKS WITHOUT EVEN HAVING DONE ANYTHING. SHAME ON YOU CHAPS. BUT, I AM MISTAKEN-NO F@@L GETS ASHAMED.

  81. Zambia always receiving,even from countries like Nigeria now. I God help ooo,chineke now. RB goz to Nigeria, and now we are receiving donations.Maybe he went to berg.I hate poverty!

  82. You know what? I have no problem with Nigeria donating to Zambia, but I think Nigeria has a far much bigger agenda they are seeking to accomplish in Zambia. But For us to allow them to use Mealie meal and a 250K dollar to advance that agenda is what is appalling. We even send the second most powerful man in Zambia to receive mealie meal donation. My foot. This mealie will be gone in less than a month and would would have been the point. I would have sent a Kabwata ward councilor to go and receive this donation. If you donate a football stadium, a tared road to our major farm land, yes we shall send the VP to receive the donation. Not this maize nonsense. This is just Nigerian showmaship.

  83. #79 Peter Zambians will tell you they deserve it. How many times have we seen a British prime minister using a Vauxhall? Oh sorry we can not even make a blade! Tony and Gordon are promoting their own industries.

  85. And yesterday…we said that the quick trip to Nigeria will come to light…First it was the bankers at State House, the trip to Nigeria and now donations….Any one heard of any Nigerian donation to Zimbabwe with the worser chlorea situ??….
    “Oga” Hahahaha#82 it is that Agenda that we are worried about. Donations are not the solution. The Nigerians want to buy our confidence and then start playing their games in Zed. Where is your pride. Would you give your daughter for the night to someone because of Kaloba? Look beyond the bags of Mealie meal Zambians have a decent record and should be wearier of “de mon who love to chop em kweke!!!”

  86. There is a say in tonga “uta lumbi mubwa” literaly translated as, he who does not appreciate a gift is a dog. Thumbs up Nigerians, may God bless you.

  87. i agrree with # 70 there is surely something fishy about this donation,all of a sudden Nigeria is constantly on the lips of our government leaders,mind you Nigeria tops the list of the most corrupt nation pa world.   [-x**==

  88. Morning Anonymous (brit flag) # 83. The lack of Nationalism is at the heart of all this. Any proud person would work hard to avoid a situation such as this. I am just wondering that this draught or food we are recieving donations for and yet during the campaign RB was using state funds to donate food in the Eastern province. The Time in turn reports of a “Need to release maize from the strategic reserve” and we were selling maize to Zimbabwe earlier in the year. Is this another Matrix? Or Carlington II?

  90. #86 You embrass your brothers!! Dont use proverbs to justify nonsense.LMP with your brother Costain helped bring Zed from a Maize shortage to surplus. It is barely a couple of months and Zambia is back to the same song? This is just not acceptable…. [-x

  91. You know what guys.Its not that i just like condeming the mmd government. But these are some of the things which make me feel bad.Look at Angola today there was war for a long time there. But they are not beggers like the Country which has never had war,it has plenty of copper and other minerals,plenty of water and vast land.Its because of bad leaders that we have.Dont say Angola has oil,we also have copper and other minerals.

  93. #88 VW Spot on. What really we lack is planning as you have said. What is even more worrying is people like #86 who going by his flag is exposed but still excited that we have been given a “donation” by Nigerian!

    What have you been up to the last few days VW?

  97. Happy holidays to all you bloggers. You reap where you sow. Nigeria is sowing and time will come for them to reap……

  99. Guys anyone interested to go to Zimbabwe. Tu kafumyepo chi Mugabe pa chipuna.People any volunteers please. Hahaha epouli na undertaker naiwe anonymous.Any more people please,people are suffering in Zimbabwe.

  100. Somebody change the song please! Received donation, received donation every week.

    Can I suggest to the almighty RB that he makes me MINISTER of DONATIONS. At the rate we are going, we really need one. And, please do not call them donations, we have been here before. Remember Chiluba and all his donations he was receiving? Now we are being told how the task force has recovered money.

    You people in Zed were complaining about choncolilos, wait until they come-Nigerians! Guys hung on to your wives:d

    Why don`t Africans change?

  105. this is indeed zero option , we are now accepting food from poor countries.What happened to our pride? only two years ago we had a surplus of maize now we are begging from the Nigerians. I hope the maize donated is real maize. or did they use the donation as a ploy to smuggle drugs.

  106. I smell a rat!!! Nigeria has enough of it’s own people living in poverty. why donate to a fellow struggling country when their own people have problems? very dubious stuff.

  107. :d/[-(:)>-:x:x:d/ Mwanawasa your soul rest in peace. If you could cum back and redeem ZED anyway the worst thing NYAMASO YA has done is to increase their salayies and yet the economy is in mess. See the they are smiling cos their pockets are full. Luanshya back to what Chiluba left it only security guys will be working. Chambeshi metals also only security guys are working. No where are people are being recruited axcept joining prostitution. Watch out this space. If CB can be reduced to nothing what do you think it will be other towns. :-\”:d/

  108. We are so used to receiving handouts from former colonial masters that when it comes from within africa we get surprised.

  110. THE PRESIDENT WENT TO NIGERIA WAS IT TO BEG FPR FOOD OR WHAT. THE DONATIONS SHOULD HAVE GONE TO ZIM. WE ARE NOW BEGGERS. INSTEAD OF SOLVING THE SITUATION AT HOME. THIS DONATION IS TOWARDS MITIGATING THE FLOODS THAT HIT THE COUNTRY EARLY THIS YEAR WHY GIVE US THE DONATION TOWARDS THE END OF THE YEAR.

    [-(

    CAN THE GRZ TELL US WHAT THEY WILL DO ABOUT THE PRICE OF M/MEAL.

  111. #90 and #93, gentlemen or ladies, you can write what you want, i dont blame you ” small minds, the flag on my posting has nothing to do with the topic at hand”. The fact still remains, the country is in a mess right now and poor villagers are living on Mangos everyday and if they are given a bag of mealie meal who are we not say thank you to whoever is donating.

  112. Blessed is the hand that giveth. So any one can give wheather is poor or reach but becaful , Something for nothing doesnt make freinds. SO what are we going to give in return lets hope it will not cost our mother ZED. And just a corncern even if it was Sata was elected as ZED Presideso it would have been the same. Goodness they stalo his votes and now they have to pay it by what the country is going through. Where are MMD promises not even one and everything are going against their wihes. If i was RB i could step down. Morever people never voted for you. Thats the badness of stealing. Next week Mugabe is donating Brankets and mealing and 1000 prostitutes. WATCH BONGO/[email protected]

  113. It’s more blessed to give than to receive. This
    is my challenge to our leaders. Special thanks to
    to the Nigerian Govt for donation.

  114. icho icho icho, chisokone bane!
    chasokona chasokona chasokona,
    ushasokone mwana wandonshi.

    UNIP’s power, s’power, s’power.

    Rupiah Banda is bringing us Ngerians,
    Next thing, your Bs will be gone,
    They know how to steal people’s Bs ulelolesha so!

  115. BLOGGERS LOOK AT THIS CLOSELY,FIRST A NIGERIAN BANK OPENS SHOP IN ZED,THEN THEY DONATE…:-W,STRANGE HUH..BUT ZED SHUWA ..AND KUNDA ALIGHTS FROM A + $65,000 VEHICLE,TO RECIEVE A DONATION,WHAT HYPOCRICY,NOT TO MENTION THE BOMA HAS LOADS MORE OF THESE IN THE FLEET,I ALWAYS GO BY THE SAYING THERE IS NOTHING FOR NOTHING,WONDER WHAT NIGERIA IS UP TO…

  116. #111 Small minds? Good heavens! Well atleast my small mind has not forgotten that we had donations when it was election time.

    You are on the net mate. Go and read about Nigeria come back to me later. Much as I appreciate there are people suffering in Zed, Nigeria has more than treble the number suffering.

    Open your eyes, wake up and smell the coffee.

  117. Zambia now should begin to send both relief food and medicines to our neighbouring Zimbabwe. The concept of giving does not require that you have excess, unwanted resource in order to give but it simply demands that you something your neighbour is in need of; share it.

  118. oops you see now who told you that receiving all the time is good now,when is Zambia going to donate to Zimbabwe all the time handouts what is Rupiah doing kashi is he doing his job or what?

  119. Zambians when are you going to wake up learn to appreciate u just wanna find faults.you can not compare nigeria to zambia.does zambia have any company outside? or a bank.wake up and travel chiluba taught us to travel around and do some business other than condeming.thank u Nigeria.

  120. One wonders why Nigeria is donating to Zambia, when infact they have so many of thier people living in poverty and starving. Government must be carefull with this country. They are quite crooked. We dont want them to be chokablok in our country. We already have enough problems as it is.

  121. #117 Giving f)o)o)l)i)s)h)l)y is againtst the teachings of the bible though.

    I do not think Nigeria has given f)o)o)l)i)s)h)l)y here though.

    They are clever people mind you!

  123. I smell something and it stinks so bad it cud poison your system… uuumm
    Now we are trusting Nigerians… Tata tugwasye, elo lwanya nomba

  129. #124 Aha! They have managed to get to Zed. Now that is clever. By the way, we went and invited them in. That speaks volumes I think. Before you realise they will have made more than they have “donated”. Wait and see. We must be the only country to officially invite them in.

  130. Access Bank , Eco – Bank , Dangote. These are confirmed and setting up or setup already. when they do come they’ll come with their sisters and brothers. The type that you find in S.A drug dealing or pimps who run brothels and organised crime. Lets act and speak out before we are in trouble
    When you open up to Nigerians you open a can full of worms, a fukll package of investiment on one hand and stinkin crime on the other. watch out ba RB and Kunda

  131. #116, ok mate,sorry for using the term small minds, you have made your point, I know a lot about the nigerians and their manouvers, For example, there was one incidence in Uk when our nigerian friend made a call to his country without paying a single kwid. Ok, on a serious note, imagine your kids are dying of hunger “God forbid” and your crooked neighbour offers to help, what can you do?

  134. #131 Disgruntled Zedian

    You are scared of the Nigerians because of a free call made by a Nigerian? That is classic!

    Rather fear the British and All those western countries that can make you volunteer your souls to them. Many of our brothers are saving time in the west voluntarily.

    Nigerians are some of the dumbest guys on earth.

  135. #131 Cheers mate. A cerating Bemba saying goes like:

    “Shiwaililwa onta ubuta bwakwe”. But the funny thing is we have created this mess ourselves. If we keep going like this it will be impossible to come out of it.

    We do not need donations my brother. We need long term solutions not hand outs with strings attached!

  139. THIS IS A BRIBE. The Nigerians are paving way for their ‘invejstments’. First it was access bank, there are enough banks waiting for licenses to start operations in zambia but they have been blocked so that the Nigerian access bank can establish itself without the competiion from other new banks. Then we have the new cement factory that Dangote will be putting up. There is nothing for nothing. There will be a price to pay. Zambia is also a prime location for money laudering. Watch this space.

  140. How dumb is this? Nigeria does not consider its people as important, and here they are donating to Zambia. Someone thinks that by so doing you are selling your country? How embarrasing to refuse a donation from your village relative who thinks that his gift is so precious.

  141. i know a nigerian whom i told that their country was opening a bank in zed-this person told me to open an a/c with any naija bank ever

  143. All i know is those that depend on handouts never put their hands to the plough. We have to look within if we are going to make it colleagues. And we should not celebrate getting assistance

  144. Nigeria attempted to make a car. The car could only move at 15km per hour and you say I should be scared of them? Remain in your box, not me.

  147. Some people on this blog give me the impression that you could be bribe with a candy, a mere sweet.

    Nigerian chiefs were in the forefront of selling their kinsmen to Europe and America as slaves. That is not in my blood.

  148. 44 years of Kaunda independence with nothing to show the world except hunger and a smiling vice president George Kunda who seems to be very happy with what we have achieved or failed to achieve.

    Nigeria feels for the poor in Zambia whilst its leaders keep increasing their salaries. Happy George Kunda!!! And Happy Rupiah Bwezani Banda Mphunoikulu!!! Long live your happiness.

  149. If Zambia does not design its own life to progress as a nation, chances are that someone else will definatetly be doing the planning for Zambia, mind you who ever does the planning on your behalf will definately has to benefit from their input. These can be IMF, World Bank, African Banking Corporation and the Nigerian Government. So stop being hypocrites and learn to know what you want!!!

  150. NIGERIA NO GOOD FOR ZAMBIA. GUYS OPEN YOUR EYES, BANDA WAKE UP? AM FROM EASTERN PROVINCE, BANDA MAKE ME PROUD. SO FAR NO GOOD. NO TO NIGERIAN INVESTMENT. PLEASE, PLEASE

  151. Nigerians are coming in , Xavier returns, Chiluba starts speaking of his experience as thought hey were in the past.VJ returns to govt, Teta and Mulongoti become the influential ones.. papers missing durig press brief :-\”
    thats the rule of RB colleagues.

  152. I am shocked with you guys who are skeptic about nigerians but you get overjoyed by the westerners when they come to you and either do some investment on their terms or give you loans with harsh conditionalities. Earlier on, I said that we are used to receiving handouts from our former colonial masters. Our minds have been trained to think that they are ‘gods’ and we are ‘nothing’, and so when we get help from our fellow ‘nothing’ we get shocked. This is a mindset that needs freedom and deliverance. Colonial mentality has been passed on to everyone even those born now. While ‘History’ may be a good course for our children, measures need to be taken to avoid damaging their self esteem.

  154. You are talking about a car? What about the satellite that they had in space and it went missing 2-3 weeks in space?

    I will will give them kudos as they are trying to buy the New castle premier European club fetching for almost 500 M quids

  155. IQ wise, an average Zambian is much better off than an average Nigerian. That is the world official position. Please, let us for once think well about ourselves.

  159. ACCESS Bank?, Dangote Cement?, Visits to State house, Felix staying behind in Nigeria. Something fishy. RB went to negotaite for the foods?. Incredible!. I dont want my sons to pay loans I am not aware of (result of enriching themsleves). Bwana VP is that the Benz you came with to church (mary immaculate) on 23rd Novemeber?

  162. No matter what the intention behind the Nigerian donation, Zambians are too sharp to be hoodwinked. Whoever that Zambian could be.

  163. #161
    How about asking that question to Koffi Olomide or Suke Chile they may know better than me coz I am way far away from Kantanga River.

  164. Careful we may just end up with “chiefs and igwees” in our own country, worse still “shrines” please dont sell our country to very deep rooted watchcraft. God have mercy on us! Sad 🙁

  165. #130 THANKS FOR THAT…A NIGERIAN BANK,A NIGERIAN CEMENT PLANT IN ZAMBIA,MY GUESS IS A GOOD AS YOURS,TO THOSE WHO ARE SAYING HELP IS GOOD..BE CAREFUL THE COST WHICH COMES WITH SOME OF THIS HELP….

  166. Guyz sure, they can even hold the function for such a little donation. come on yes i understand Zambia is poor but we cant be talking of $250,000. I think you can do better. ^:)^

  167. Somebody is not telling the truth here o. There fellow people are sufering and they donate, what do they want from us o. 😕

  168. There is nothing bad with any African country donating to its fellow African Nation. Westerners shouldn’t be considered to be our Saviours with their hard terms and conditions attached.

    But in this case of Nigeria donating to flood victims almost a year after the incident and the recent visit by our president raises a lot of questions.Let Nigerians do the same to our neighbours in this collapsing kingdom (Zimbabwe)and other nations otherwise we will conclude that its a strategy to gain investment favour.I hope our President never went to ask for mealie meal after their scandal with FRA by exporting all the maize.

  169. thinkimg nagerian for hilping as but is a bad thing we are all power intend of helping zimbambwen now it zambia i think thire is something als.

  170. The help from a fellow African Country is well come, though I would have appreciated in it was received by the Permanent Secretary in the Office of the Vice President. My I suggest to our Leaders Please next time if we need to receive a donation please please please please let the Deputy PS or a PS himself do the work. PLEASE, sometimes its very shameful the whole lost of RB, VP doing this, Please. Hon VP learn to deligate some of these duties.

  171. Is there any blodspot for nigerians based in nigeria like lusaka times? i want to hear what the nigerians are saying . Does anybody know.

  175. Fine 152
    You cant tell us that U.S.A, Germany or even the U.K are on the same level as Nigeria Economiclly.off course that also not to say we that we should encourage handouts but these countries are stinking rich, they have have good social welfare for the unemployeed compared to us, They have good medical facilities etc. They have a lot money to spare unlike African Governments who are always busy steaing from the poorest of the poor. So yes!!! when a country which is suposed to be one of the richest countries in the world because of its oil reserves but its people are living in poverty decieds to donate to another country, you begin to wonder what is the catch???

  176. Some people were born to be servants, others are born to be masters. Be them educated or not, the choice is yours.

  177. This money should have been well spent on the Nigerian people instead in improving their living conditions. There is just too much polution caused oil spillage on farming/residential land or better still on my brothers and sisters in Zimbabwe being ruled by a dictator (No better than Dada, Field Marshall, IDI Amin).

  178. #175. mama Jinx,
    So at what point should African countries begin to donate to other countries, when all their problems are over?

  179. No. 175 mama Jinx so you have being convinced to think that the countries you have mentioned are stinking rich, well let me tell you that these some countries depend heavly on your resources to sustain there so called development. So its up to you and I to open up our eyes brother.

  180. U see these tukadolis that Lusaka Times has introduced are psychological kadolis.There are times when debates on the blog are very heated and can cause anarchy on certain sensitive topics so when you insert a smiley it kind of waters down your contribution. So LT is smart.

  183. This is a grand scam, you see that picture with the Nigerian and Kunda standing in front of what looks like bags of maize meal is not real. The contents of those so called maize meal bags are nothing but papers, don’t trust Nigerians especially the Politicians. The only thing that is real is Kunda’s merc. If Kunda cares for the poor, he should auction his merc and use the money to help the poor! >:d<

  184. Ati Chani…Small minds? Badala Disgruntled Zedian…is a lost soul in China and may have sampled some of that tainted milk and as such soicalistic donations are a way of life. Maybe even the statistics he is using are from Chairman Mao’s era. Here are some wise words Badala Disgruntled Zedian #111. “Give a man fish and he shall eat for one day Teach a man to fish and he shall eat for the rest of his life.”
    Nigeria is just hood winking RB and You are embrassing tongas with short sighted wise words. I would suggest you use the internet to gain knowledge and some exposure.

  185. wo unto hom who puts in his trust in the sons of men for tomorrow they perish and so their thoughts and plans…..if you guys are thinking that your leaders think about you and the poor, then you have got it wrong. RB and his collegues only think of their best interests not yours sorry!!!!

  186. Disgruntled Zedian #131. Since you love traditional addages…In the society that I was brought up. If I had such a crooked neighbour the other good neighbour would have asked the misfit to change of be lynched. “Uyo Kawala” Or is it the necklace in RSA. Nigerian are not bad people per say. But their bad ways have become acceptable in their society and a way of life. As they say if you eat groundnuts and one is bad? You will spit out all of them. It seems that RB has brought what folks questioned about why he was fired by KK (over Namboard) at our door step. Poor St. Kunda is being used since the DMU is under the VP office but all can see where the smell is coming from.

  187. cont…Please cousin of Mo Ndate Mubukwanu..The Post/The Times of Zambia/Zambia daily mail and now Executive issues are online…belengako…maybe I should say Kobala ma pepa kwali a internet Mwanabama!

  188. E=MC^2 #185 are you redefining leadership? Look if you want to define in the context of Africa and Non Africa. Of course it is about them. But Zambia like most African countries has a mixture of both and leader that runs these countries is not led by chiefs so leadership is defined by the mode of government adopted. Hence even the value set should be same.

  189. that $250000 and whatever else donation nigeria has made,can go a long way in alleviating the suffering of the its own pipo in the niger delta.these pipo have been fighting the govt and the oil companies there for ages now.their condition has been far more disastrous than that of zambians.my guess is they are probably even more than the entire zambian population,so wats the catch NIGERIA? 8-|

  190. Oga Anonymous #139. De fine bra…de fine. How far now? Since RB wants us to be Nija o! You de ask bout weekend now? Weekend fine O..I went to my brada house and he wife kook fufu and I de chop fine now! ‘ow ’bout you mate ”ow was your weekend? Betch watched a load of football with a pint o guiness? spot on mate!!!

  193. awe kwena bane mwati bupe fwe, we ought to be carefull, its not like Nigeria is doing fine than zed economically. this must be something 🙂

  194. Receiving a donation is not a crime but the intention behind it is what matters.Even leaders/chiefs receive donationsor gifts from their subjects. The govt is therefore requested to put to good use of the public resources.let it offset defits somewhere in identified areas.

  197. Te kutila babi ba RB buti ifitu balechita kwati Abena Zed baiche!! Zed ni 44 noba ba felwe ba teka na mano. Ukuteka ni bantu bane!!! :x:d/

  198. when zambian politicians beg for donations and get them, it is maximum points for them, and when they secure a loan, that means they are good at their job , they even show off for this archivement.
    Non of the above is an archivement, build a uni then show off

  200. With these c.n.p’s we have leading the way,what can we say, they will not even see trouble cumin their way.The maize mael mos def has a hidden agenda, we do not need maize meal coz we can grow our own maize en we have beautiful land on which it can grow,what we need are farming skills ,inputs at the rite time en innovative leaders not sleepy/blind ones who cannot read between the lines. Shame….

  203. NIGERIA giving us aid? Personally, I received such gestures with maximum suspicion. Not only is Nigeria over-populated but its one African with very visible signs of poverty. The aid is in exchange for 1000 work permits for Nigerian crooks and fraudsters that will be dumped in our beloved country soon. The Nigerian government is now finding ways and means of de-congesting their country. The Nigerian economy is shrinking compared to its population.

  204. If RB wants advice on how he can manage the oil resources,why cant he ask Saudi Arabia instead on Nigeria?.Saud Arabia or Libya is richer and much more reliable than the crooks from Nigeria.

  208. What sort of leaders do we have? The World is in recession yet we are venturing in activities that are doubling our expenditure such as the useless NCC and salary increments for public office holders. How sad and shameful for those who call themselves leaders. Anyway, what more can frail and sickly characters like George Kunda and VJ ask for, other than fattening their bank accounts before they are called to meet their creator? Zambia is a sorry country and it saddens me how a country like Botswana which is almost entirely a dessert and with the population of goats outdoing that of humans do better than us with vast land, waters and a thriving population-Manpower.

  209. it’s either Zed has gone to the dogs or the dogs have come to Zed.Yaba insoni !!!!!!!!! remember the speech by RB at his inaguration ceremony i remember he talked about Zed not moving with a begging bowl but hardly two months he travels to Nigeria with a begging bowl and now see what we have been given in the begging bowl. :d

  211. Elyo lwanya, that donation best suit the zimbabweans. Why donate now when there are no floods. There is something fishy going on here.Baletwika pamenso….

  212. #208 point of correction mon ami, it’s actually the number of donkeys out numbering the human population. You even see them on the streets sleeping

  213. hey guyz this is not even a donation after all,im told RB used far much more than the $250000 to/fro and even moving around NIGERIA.

  215. Fine,Blackmans Child
    Am not saying that African countries should not donate. Im simply saying that how do they try and solve other peoples propblems when they have huge problems of thier own & yes it is a known fact that most of these developed countreis are rich because of our resourses, but have you ever asked your self the question…if we have so much resourses why cant we develop as well.Obviously they have come a long way to be so developed but they had to start from somwhere!!And that was with themselves!!

  221. Veep describes Nigeria as Zambia’s closest Ally.

    Vice president, George Kunda has described Nigeria as Zambia’s closest Ally.
    Mr. Kunda says Zambia and Nigeria have enjoyed cordial relations over a period of time.
    He was speaking in Lusaka today when the Nigerian government presented various food stuffs to the disaster management unit.

    >:d< And the Nigerian counterpart says his country works tirelessly towards relief efforts. >-)

    muvitv.com

  224. $250 000 Thats nothing as far as it’s on national basis, These guys(the nigerians) are very craft, they have already seen a weakness in some one, they will make sure that they act as good as they can until they get(archieve) what they want [-(8-> keep an open eye on they i personally don’t trust them.l-)

  225. The Nigerians are coming. I dont think i’d reacting like most pipo on the blog if it was kenya , Egypt, Botswana, S.A, or even Ghana…

    But i have an issue with Nigerians. Some of them are decent but the bad ones are really bad and its not an issue of them being smart or anything. The thing is will have lots of ilegal citizens not productive but stealing from our meagure resources. that is my issue.

  227. NIGERIA with a population of 160 million donating to Zambia with a population of 10 million in the same continent of AERICA? shame to the begger who always complain.when it rain well he beggs in the name of flood and when it rain moderately he begs in the name of drought.Zambia behaves like a begger he always has a story to tell and celebrate when he is not suppose to.SHAME BA ZAMBIA SHAME.

  228. Awe ine i don’t trust Nigerians, they are CROOKS. I don’t trust this donation elo why Zambia? why not Zimbabwe????? Why not provide for cholera patients in Zimbabwe?

  230. 156 Lisa, which school did you go to? “Nigeria feels for the poor in Zambia” Chizungu tatyolela pati? Personification of a country sinikutyola chizungu e.g. “Nigeria donates to Zambia” is also personification or embodiment of countries. Tatyola still?

    Chizungu nichovuta Lisa, osa tabila to critisise others before you check with Chambers kapena Concise Oxford dictionary. Tinaphuzila kale ife kuba phunzisi a Ellias Chipimo naba John Mwanakatwe, ask them, they are still very alert.

    LT bloggers, what do you say to Lisa?

  232. Credit to RB for Making a trip to Nigeria. We Got somethin in return $250,000. Especially that this money is coming from what we sholud consider nothing. God bless Nigeria. We should also donat something to Zimbabwe. Lest look at selling the Merk George Kunda is driving and donate the proceeds to ZIM our freinds are dying we watch. Shame to RB

  235. Hey, Nigerians do not give anything for free. It is corruption in your eyes. They will ask for something from Zambian Government, and will not be able to refuse. There are alot of Nigerians suffering, hunger, street kids, drugs, corruption. They know what they are after. By the time Zambians realise, they are gone. Nigerian Government is the most corrupt in the world.

    ZAMBIANS, WAKE UP. THIS IS TOO GOOD TO BE TRUE!!!

  236. I don’t trust this donation. O boy you de cough hard tru yo ass, in order to pay back somehow. Don’t be cheated.You’ll believe me one day.

  237. Zambians, remember the SENEGALIS!! It is not too long to forget. Zambians woke up when the Senegalis had left Zambia with our semi precious stones.

    NIGERIANS ARE AFTER SOMETHING IN ZAMBIA.

  238. this is serious 9ja giving for free kai…this is some major thing that the baba lawo asked the minister to do o…coz 9ja guys esp egbo fire they no go give for free o…major 419 yahooze

  241. Make thunder fire all of una mama.. Since when did Zambians too start ridiculing Nigerians… ignorant buffoons. No worries, in a matter of months we’d be feeding your starving nation. HIV/AIDS ridden mugus. Calling Nigerians crooks, do you know how many of us (Zambians) are rotting in Western prisons. I am a Zambian, lived in Nigeria, and those people get the brunt of all the crimes committed in Africa… I am ashamed to read such nonsense from so called educated Zambians…. Bloody cock suckers 😉

  242. I can say, ignorance is a disease[-( By the way Nigerian slangs and words are freely used here (like Chineke! and so on)I can tell that you all watch a lot of Naija movies:d/ Just remember, they are just movies.
    I agree with folks here.Nigeria have its own problems. Yes, as a Nigerian, we need to fix them. Biggest problem facing us, the Nigerdelta. I’m glad, the delta issue is being tackled.I can say that with all confidence. Expect a massive infrastructural investment within the region, soon. Nigerian biz interests in Zambia are with all sincerity just like our biz contributions to countries like Ghana, Ivory coast and most of W.Africa.
    why not compete within the rest of the continent

  243. lets thank the nigerians even though i smell some thing fish about this donation.As Zambians abroad its a sign to us that lets work very hard and invest in our country Zambia.Lets not allow outsiders to take our responsibilities,we can not be receiving donations from our fellow poor its a shame to us zambians abroad.Stop passing bad comments because you are selfish and you can not work hard to invest in your own country.
    :((

  244. Shocking comments from fellow Africans, and some of you claim to be educated. I cannot make a blanket statement on Zambians based on CNN, Newspapers or hearsay, because I have educated myself to believe that people are individuals. There are some individuals here who exercise their intellect..Its healthy to have some suspicion as to the reason for the donation, but it is shockingly embarrasing for some other educated Africans to display such intellectual disability and laziness by branding fellow Africans that they may not have intereacted with in their lives as fraudsters..

    Im ashamed!!!

  245. i have never seen a group of people with a bigger inferiority complex than alot of the people posting here.

    dont you realise that $250 000 isnt alot of money. it wont even buy a house in central london. thats what Babangida cleaned his behind with every morning. the money is a show of solidarity , a show of unity. but for some strange reason people seem to think nigerians have horns sticking out of their heads.

    the last time a checked which was a while a go.. one in 6 african is nigerian and one in 2 west african is nigerian.. so if you catch anyone doing anything bad it is most likly be a nigerian..half the ghana boys i know, are into 419.

  246. Why should I be bothered that some lowly Africans with an inferiority complex surpassed only by that of the legendary Johnny wayward do not know the difference between an email in their inbox telling them they won the British lottery and an invstment opportunity brought to their impoverished nation by a man the calibre of Mallam Aliko Dangote?

    Na naija I blame wey dey donate scarce resources to try help a fellow african.:-\”

  247. at the end of the day africans need to stick together.. something bad happens in the 3rd world.. and people are collecting money in the west to donate, they talk about it and they do something.. then you will be screaming the great white hope is here with your colonial mentalities…if only western countries donated people would ask africans why they are not doing enough.. then your african brother chips in .. and you want to spit the help back in their faces

    like i said in inferiority complex

  248. to all the people that talk about no strings attached and nigeria wanting something back

    do you think western donations dont have strings attached. look at pakistan and the amount of aid they get, then look how they are being used by america. look at the way rain forests are being destroyed in south america by oil companies.. look at the gold mines in ghana and the people living next to them, dirt poor and in filth, the gold mines have made it 10 times worse.Im sure all it took was some no strings donation from a western company for some one to look the other way

  249. For Nigerian banks to ship business to Lusaka means the banking industry there is non existent, but instead of all this Zambian mugus to be grateful that we are bringing them out of the dark ages and creating jobs for their lazy asses they are here blaspheming..I have never seen such jealousy.

  250. useless unappreciative zambians…it is not Nigerias fault that ur sorry ass country cannot prevent a flood nor take care of its citizens that nigeria gotta send u guys $250k peanut money to help bail out unappreciative bastards.

  251. once again.. for the 3rd time.. white middle calss males make alot more money through VAT fraud in the UK….. it was has been deleted 3 times.. it seems this board has no problem with people insulting nigerians but when i make a factual comment about white colar crime.. it gets deleted…

    go on delete it again
    hypocrites

  252. I read some of the comments and I am full of disgust. You guys are very ungrateful. What is wrong with one african nation helping another? Yaradua should’ve stayed home while you guys suffer from hunger and start eating each other soon, Hiss! Hungry moucheches!

  253. Pathethic Zambians…thats why God only gave y’all copper as a main resource…who the hell still buys copper anyways?? buhahahhaa….u guys cannot play football cannot do anything….go outside Africa, and nobody knows what Zambia is…useless country with citizens alike….boffons.

  255. People are ungrateful, not all Nigerians take part in 419, many Nigerians are also victims of 419. So I think it is rather ungrateful and shallow minded to catergorize all NIgerians as such.
    Nigeria, did not have to give anything, after all, they have their own problems, but they did. Which is more than I can say for other countries. Instead of being ungrateful be appreciative, instead of complaining be thankful. Every government and country has its challenges. Nigeria is no different.

  256. infact from the comments on here i think i would be safer in 1950s
    missisipi.. than living in zambia.. people think that if you are the same colour… that u can not be prejudice or racist

  257. I have come to the painful conclusion that you Zambians are only but a bunch of cowards…now we Nigerians have come out to face up to your arrant nonsense and we can’t find any of you to react?

  258. I see some uneducate peiople making silly comments because Nigeria donated to Zambia. You would rather get donations from China, USA or India. Your mentality is, Africa is poor so Africans cannot help Africans.
    Some also seem to suggest Nigeria is after something Zambia owns.
    Africans should try and help Africa. You might think Nigeria is poor but as it stands at the moment, Nigeria has more foreign reserves than the UK. I’m sure if they offered to help, you’ll jump at it. The fact of the matter is nothing Zambia has that would remotely interest Nigeria, maybe some of your women:d
    Let’s just be glad we are able to help one another.

  261. Naija Chief, please take it easy. A handful of people on this site make silly comments about Nigeria, based on the actions of few. No need to do the same.

    Africa for Africans – YES WE CAN
    Pajimoh – 100%Naija

  262. Only thing Naija stands to benefit from donating to Zambia is those women with huge bakassi.. Thats it. You imbeciles should learn to be grateful. Big Brother (Naija) is here to help out with the alarming starvation problem in Zambia. Anyway, too each his own.. Thats the thanks we get.. noise from half fed imbeciles. Wishing all my Zambian brothers and sisters peace and love for the holidays. <> :d I like Zambian women a lot! :d

  263. It’s so amazing, the guys making much noise about Nigeria’s donation all live in the UK. They are cut off from the real suffering back home. I’m sure they can’t even send a penny home from their cleaning jobs.
    Please let’s all unite and help Africa. Nigeria has it’s own issues but if we are waiting to be trouble free before we help someone else, then we’ve so much missed it.
    Nigeria military personnel are helping keep peace in various parts of Africa, yes we have our own problems at home.

  265. On reading the comments here I feel so ashamed of African people. Not just the type of comments but the number of them indicate that we have far to go.

    Nigeria’s biggest trading partners are USA, China, UK and EU. No doubt Zambia’s biggest trading partners will be USA, China, UK, EU and South Africa. They are all happy making money out of us, but try and promote trade between African countries and you run into a wall of hate.

    I am so ashamed because it is obvious that the effects of divide and rule did not leave our continent with the Europeans. In the affairs of nations $250,000 is only a token of our sympathy for the victims of a natural disaster. Even though we have freed ourselve

  268. Chinese, American’s, Europeans will happily come to Nigeria (and Zambia) for business. But Zambian’s don’t want to take a small gift from Nigerians.

    I am so ashamed because it is obvious that the effects of divide and rule did not leave our continent with the Europeans.

  272. By the way, HOTCHICK.. this Nigerian wants to holla at you. Of all the Zambos, you made the most sense. This is your opportunity to enjoy grade a certified mandingo *clears throat*… i’m here for you honey.. holla back boo :d

  273. Ol’boy, mandingo is an african blessing not a Nigerian blessing:D…I think I stand a better chance with HOTCHiCK, I am young boy, U are an old boy:d

  274. How can a half fed Zambian man have mandingo skills? Why do you think we donated 250k, 2 bags of garri, stock fish and a bucket of fresh water? Come on now. As for toasting my beauriful lady “hotchick” she wants a man with experience, that can feed her. A man that can treat her right. I am your hotchick. just give me a buzz sweet heart. I have plenty of food in my cupboard. :-w

Waiting for you to make a move. just give me a buzz sweet heart. Say the word and i’ll be there in a flash. PS. I have plenty of food in my cupboard.

  277. :d :d :d . Young man, I am so far advanced that I use the liquified viagra. Just a few drops into your eyes and you are good to go. Firing on all cylinders. Been doing this since 1991 (before you guys even heard of viagra pills) Hotchick will receive some serious loving and a proper meal (3 times a day). Infact, i might even suggest Nigeria donates another 250k just to sweeten the pot for her fellow Zambians; who are reading and hiding behind their desktops.

    You guys better convince her to take this once in a life time opportunity.

  278. LMAO! It’s a stampede. Awon da? These Zambians are a bunch of sad pathetic unappreciative mofos. I’m sure the true victims of the disaster are not on here whining about 419 schemes. Instead of you guys to show your gratitude, you’re busy running lip. Smh. Ebi lo ma pa yin. :d

  279. Quite sad that an African country steps up to help a fellow African and this is what they get back in return. A slap in the face.

    For your information Nigeria has been a charitable nation for a long time. We contributed a LOT to the independence struggles of South African countries and at some point we heavily funded the ANC in South Africa and Zimbabwe before they gained independence from racist whites.

    Nigeria has also been engaged in a lot of peace keeping missions where we have spent billions and lost many Nigerian lives just for the sake of helping fellow Africans where other African countries have turned the other way. Shame on all of you 🙁

  280. Ebi lo ma pa gbogbo eyin alai nironu, alainitiju…eyin elebi buruku:

    May death kill all u Zambians without Shame, and thoughtfulness….Hungry people. Instead of you to order bags of cassava and rice, and start a party or something. $250k in zambian currency…isnt that your GDP? You are lucky i am not the Nigerian President, i would have sent the whole zambian nation $10 and a bag of rice. Smelly, Hungry people 🙂

  282. Jeez cant believe we let the Zambians bring us down to their level. I understand the frustration guys but hmmmm two wrongs dont make a right.

    Who is this Hotchick? Can i get a piece of that Zambian tail? 🙂

  285. Ok we have made our point…I am sure Kalusha and his people won’t try this BS again. By the way Zambia, can we have our 250K back, we are not even asking for interest.

  286. What a pity that an African country deems it fit to to talk rubbish about another African country that is trying to help them out. When is this colomentality ever going to stop? Seriously Zambians you should go and hide your head in shame.

  288. Damn, whats with all the tension on this forum. I’m here to spread some love. Hotchick drop these zeros and get with a winner. This is Lil’Scrappy – heard daily consumption of food is a problem in Zambia, Africa.. Guess what? That’d be a distant memory. Cuz ive got money in the back. shorty what you drank? 😡

  289. 250K and people are going crazy? Are you kidding me? My house is worth more than that. And I mean my house in Nigeria and it is no mansion. If Nigeria wanted to bribe your government, you would be hearing about millions of dollars. Just be thankful and stop spitting senseless crap. Just because you have a computer with internet access you think you have the right to come and condemn an entire country. Shame on you all. I am sure you would have been more comfortable if the US or UK gave you that money. When in fact you should be more scared of the white man.

  294. This Zambians are cowards. Where are they now? Are they afraid to post all those childish stuff again? F*ing gossipers. We are waiting for you guys.

  295. Where are those punks? They’ve all ran away with there tails between their legs. A very good advise to you all ungratefull nonentities from Zambia, do not touch the tiger’s/lion’s tail whether it is dead or alive!

  297. Amazing. Please, can anybody tell me where the Zambians are? Anyway, I think Chinua Achebe was the one who wrote that cowards die many times before their death. Hahahahahaha.

  298. I am shocked at the level of hatred being spewed out by ZAMBIANS against Nigerians. It just goes to show that a lot of work will need to be done on laundering the image of Nigeria if this is how most people feel about our nation and people. Very sad.

  299. With the Xnephobia that led to the maiming of countless Africans in South Africa earlier this year, and the hatred displayed here by the ZAMBIANS, it is getting increasingly clear that the AFRICAN UNION (AU) is simply a UNITED FRONT for AFRICAN looters disguising as leaders. There is no scintilla of UNITY among the people of AFRICA.

  300. I thot I had seen everything but now this takes the cake. I ask Zambians where is the proof of your accusations against Nigeria. A nation of 120m is being defined by the actions of a few thousands. I knew a Zambian girl who before she gave her life to Christ slept around – Do i define all Zambians by her? No I dont – why because everybody answers to themselves – everybody is personally responsible for themselves. I cant bring myself to enter the gutter or plumb the low levels some Zambians and south africans (not surprised) have fallen to. All I can say is your reasons for hating Nigerians are false, your media and the western media has hoodwinked you. Truth is power – Find it! One love! :)>-

  301. Poor Zambians…reading the 1st few comments left me shaking my head…the Average IQ of a Zambian following ur logic and from what av seen in here should be in the Low 20’s.

  304. Nigerians being the crooks that they are, I think they rank # 1 where crooking and all is concerned, I’d be very very worried about that $250 grand. With all the turmoil that goes on there, I hope they dont rub it off on our peace full nation Zambia. Peeps are starving all over Africa- in Nigeria too, very sad

  305. You have the brains of a cockroach, Anonymous Zambian… “Your peaceful nation Zambia?” As Malcolm X once said some people suffer but don’t know they are suffering so they suffer peacefully. Nigerians have very little contact with Zambians…..how come you all feel you are experts on Nigeria???… One more word from your parasitic mouth and I will withdraw my 250000 from your country. Silly starving man!! ELEBI…..

  306. Nigeria and Zambia are not comparable in any way. On TV in London, Europe, Australia etc. you constantly have World Vision or some Aid organisation talking about donations for the Starving people of Zambia, Kenya etc. “Come sponsor a child” does that sound Familiar to anyone???? No matter what nonsense you Zambians may wanna talk fact is Nigeria accepts no Aid from nobody…and also nobody sponsors Nigerian kids. Nigeria may be messed up and corrupt but we are not freaking starving. There is food Galore…. in Nigeria……yes poverty exists and people may be hungry cos they cant afford things at times but that is hunger, as opposed to starving. the kind of thing we see on World Vision.

  307. Nigerians are themselves going thru,hell why should they donate food?”GET THE LOG OUT OF YOUR EYE BEFORE YOU REMOVE THE SPECK FROM MINE NIGERIA”

  308. Hey Naija bobo.iam zambian let me educate you about Zambia ANC HQ Lusaka,SWAPO hq Lusaka,Frelimo we were the bastion of freedom fighters in this region we are happy that the region is free and we can drive freely,i tried driving from Seme border with Benin to Lagos my god every one drop Naira no Kobo eh Naija?Talk now too much whala for Naija foe us to even talk sha.i am Zambian and i know your ways i have lived among you there is good among you so please display that which is good in you. i am zambian and will never be Nigerian simple.

  309. what a Load of Hogwash you may have watched a few Nigerian movies and may be able to throw around a few Naija words but that doesnt mean anything. Zambia is also extremely corrupt. Transparency International rates Zambia on almost the same level of corruption as Nigeria so get off your high horse. Wow so you were the host for freedom fighters in your region and you can now drive freely (In zambia I guess) 😮 what a glorious achievement. Just a bit of a shame that you cant drive freely in south Africa without getting lynched by xenophobic Mobs

  310. No 309.Jelili,i have been to your country,remember when you frog-marched Ghanaians out of your country?recall when radio djs in lagos plead with Police to remove certain humans on roads?besides who wants to go to a place where you need an extra page in your passport?$,stay in your corner thank you.let politicians screw each other up, common man , i’ve been to Suru-lere,Sand-grouse,all the areas and my advice to fellow Southern Africans go to Benin,Togo etc but Nigeria at your own risk.People need escorts from the airport,what the hell’s wrong,kenya airways hijacked on the friggin runway at Murtala Int’l LMFBAO!!!!!!!!!!!nawaaaaaaaaaaa Nijaaaaa **==**==**==**==

  312. ARAB ON-LOOKER.
    As far as I am concerned nobody can cheet you punks unless you yourselfs are cheats, and also remember the west for whom you have so much respect how have they treated you so far, who cares if Zambia dissappears from the map of the world, nobody except yourselfs and your friends (in this case Nigeria).
    I tell you what invite the chinese to help develop your country or take the IMF and you would learn who is the real devil.
    You punks should be gratefull for any help recieved and be smart look further than the propaganda on the internet.

  313. As the saying goes charity begins at home. I remind you that Nigeria is still the Giant of Africa, poors folks from Zambia & other sister countries are granted solace as refugees and issued freely with Nigerian passports if they request,(Nigerians are always Kind to poor africans especially in the North), today, they are the ones committing all the atrocities and dainting the countries image.

    Shame on all you senseless and poor Zambians, read about the history of Nigeria past to present, Read about the caliber of education brilliant minds, Engineers, doctors e.t.c Nigeria contributes to the world and then think again and see if you can actually challenge us in any field.

  314. Amazing barrage of cheap talk by loud, foul, self opinionated, self esteemed, good for nothing pranks from Naija. These self exalting thugs can imagine themselves to be what they are not, creating impressions of utter fantancy about themselves regardless of realities on the ground. What madness, what ignorance. Look you Nigerians, clean up your mess which is evident for all to see before you start dreaming about being donors. I accept your donation only because it would utterly embarrasss my good gesture and brotherliness towards my fellow african. The whole country is a confused mess of ignoble and altered excretement and here they are pretending to leave in mansions. Well your cont’d

  315. mansions may be but these are planted in confused and unbelievably chaotic surroundings. Your loud mouths manage to self inflict illusions on your self centred, self praising damn heads. YOU KILL yourselves with no mercy like brute beasts that have unrestrained desire for blood. Blood baths are a common thing in Nigeria just as the wizard culture. Nigerains however have alot of humble and good people amongst them who unfortunately are crouded and dwarfed by the loud speakers. Unnecessarily proud lot, count your poor and then think of donating to others!

  316. Here is wise advise to you Nigerians, ‘Be careful not to listen to all that your servant says in the dark for in so doing you will hear him curse you’ the good book says. You simply eavedropped on this Zambian blog and came too late to understand ( probably never understand the context of discussion from your peoples reaction) the arena of discussion. For all intents and purposes, your loud spokenness is very evident from your postings and please self examine your self and through that perhaps unwind yourselves from the madness that apparently seems to characterise you.

  317. I like the description you Nigerians have given us ‘half starving’ We are a small population and our instints to survive are not as sharpened as your instincts. How do you scrounge in a 50 Million + army of starving, half naked goons.

    You Nigerians must own up and admit that you are a confused lot. You call yourselves a Power house! Leave that to others for sanity sake, but offcourse you are natuarally a self praising lot, full of self importance, self deluded importance. Give us a break, dont shout out on the blog, let others praise you. May the God of grace and love find room in you to forgive me for these postings about Nigerians. Forgive your erring son great men of our fathers.

  320. From this cheap talk, you could imagine that Lagos is better structured and better developed than London. But the reality on the ground is shocking, na mandevu wa mako.

  321. I must say the comments of some Zambians here over a simple gesture are quite laughable. Thankfully, some of those comments which apparently have jealousy and inferiority complex written all over them have been addressed.My Naija people, una do well, there’s no need to say much anymore, Naija for Life!

  322. I have yet to meet a zambian in the developed world. For these landlocked, unexposed fools to degrade other africans is beyond me. History has a funny way of catching up with arrogant people. just remember, every dog has his day. The beggers of today shall be the providers of tomorrow. The world is not standing still my friends. Even the mighty USA is borrowing from China today.

  323. i pity these muder****ers….you guys will die of hunger. Nigeria is arguably the richest country in Africa..please we need the dollars. thank you
