Bar could be operating as a brothel-Chiwama residents

Share

A named Bar in Lusaka’s Chawama compounded is allegedly operating as a brothel. This is according to some concerned residents who spoke on condition of anonymity. They told ZANIS in Lusaka today that Katete Bar situated near KUKU market, has been turned into a brothel by the owner who has allegedly engaged some foreign women as sex workers.

They alleged that the Bar owner has entered into an agreement with some Zimbabwean women working as sex workers at the bar.
They said the Zimbabwean women are charging between K10, 000 and K50, 000 for each sexual encounter and are mainly targeting those who patronize the bar and some residents in the area.

The residents have since called on the Lusaka City Council and the area councilor to quickly move in and stop the act before it gets out of hand. They said they are worried because the continued operation of the business poses a danger of high risk of disease transition in the area.

“The council and other relevant bodies should come in and close this business because we are at risk of contracting diseases, it is also inconveniencing because the women will even approach you when you go for drinking,” one of the residents said.

And when contacted, Lusaka City Council (LCC) Public Relation Manager, Chanda Makanta said the council is not aware of the situation but admitted that there have been complaints from residents around the city on the mushrooming of brothels.

Mrs. Makanta has meanwhile described the incident as most unfortunate especially that foreigners are involved.

She said the business is an act of public nuisance and a crime according to the Zambian law adding that the council will involve the police and others to investigate the matter thoroughly.

She said the council had previously done investigations after similar reports and some business premises had been closed and some have taken to court.

Mrs. Makanta has also called on the immigrations department to also investigate the matter especially that it borders on foreigners who could have been cleared by the department.

She has further called on the public to continue tipping the council with vital information in order for authority to effectively act.

  1. Legalise prostitution dont bury your head in the sand whilst u are slaughtering them at Parliament Hotel.
    Most of the problems Africa faces will never be solved without pragmatic leadership.You will hear some bloggers going on about Christian Nation.What nonsense just as Pule has a right to slaughter his flock allow others also to run their own lives.

  2. Don Paulo
    You are missing the point be specific.I would agree that flouting immigration laws is serious but prostitution is a very simple matter.You cant police pipo s lives.For you hypocritical Christians i have one word for you.If the God you clim to serve is your role model be like him he allows his children to make their own choices

  3. Thats a good development. at least they are keeping it real! The policies of the MMD government are working. Somebody post the bar name so that i can hope there after work tomorrow. i wanna have me some big a…Zimbabwe ndebele woman for dinner. this sh#t should be encouraged to remove these women from the streets. i bet business is booming at this particular bar. Viva The Hour!!!!,

  4. Necessity is the mother of invention (or is it innovation!). Every normal adult man needs a woman. The duty of leaders is to ensure this need is fulfilled in the most decent civilized way. Don’t ask me to get a whole cow when all I need is milk.

  5. It is the sister company to”Zimbabwe”in chawama and “kwa Mukupa” in Soweto market area. These woman are cheaper than a bottle of Redds/Savanah. They even have tu ma rooms for bathing. So pretty clean harlots 🙂 For them business hours start from as early as 10 am. And they also offer better “services” than our locals here in ZED.

  6. I hope it is not just the zambian prostitutes whom have brown the whistle after being kicked out of bussiness by the Mugabe pedigrees.Anyway there so many such places in lusaka and mutendele township is one of them.

  8. Marlon I shall address your words and not attack, for fear of being accused of my new learnt word Ad-hominem! Yes as Christians we do not tolerate vile practices even when we too are sinners that repent daily, but the situation is prevention of family dilapidation and social diseases. All nations in the world have laws against prostitution, even the flimsy governments. If the Zambian family falls our nation falls aswell, this is historical it happened to Greece, Rome and all other filandering civilisations in history. If you are Zambian then youshould know that moral fibre is the backbone of any nation, money rich developed or third world sitting on resources broke and hungry.

  9. I agree with number 2 and 3,Marlon.These guys should just find an alternatie way of making those guys and mean the prostitutes to operate in a most conducive way possible.There is nothing more exciting in a mans life than a woman by the side who will whisper into your ears, telling you those sweet nothings,changing the tone of her voice and touching you in all the vital places giving you the joy that only exist in movies like the titanic.It is weird but hey life life is crazy not all travel on the same road in life and just because you are using the main road doesnt mean the others are lost.

  10. Just make the business legal how many men do the pickups everyday dispite the deases killing us people are still touing everyday ba donsa. Those crying out load are just afraid of compitation in Germany there is even a street where only that kind of business done and only men allowed to entere. if it’s made legal then it will be much more safe

  11. Yaba keep talking while I confirm my flight to Chawama. I have a lot about the ndebele women and how delish they are Chawama here I come. I think no need for magnum.

  12. Mrs Makanta what is there to investigate, just walk in that bar, see if they are any back rooms and beds, spent a couple of hours there and you will see if it is a brothel or not. Dont be a politicain and give us that will investigate crap. this whole thing can be wrapped up in a day.

  14. Don naiwe you are reasoning like you are not Zambian investigate what. Prostitution has always been a problem in Zambia just that this guy has a different business model and nothing can beat alcohol and sex all he needs is to add a food outlet and business will continue booming.

  15. Imwe bantu, all so called guest houses in Lusaka are used for vigololo except that the women are not resident. Ukanyamula from anywhere in Lusaka, you just go to these so called guest houses. Sometimes you sleep overnight, but mostly it is during the day. We have been there, we know these things. Some of us used to go as far afield as Chongwe. Diaspora yalituputula amolu, LOL.

  16. Kwandangla, so ku diaspora takwaba? nangu fyalidula? Tell me your town, i will tell you which road is the red light, usungepo atleast £10 nalaisa nkusende.

  17. The owner of bar should just apply for the brothels licence so that pipo don’t trouble his buisness, you know mo monie mo *****? Thats the only way bachelors,widowers,divorcees relieve themselves.Hate or Luv….mula speaks..

  18. I guess men blogger are so excited with this issue, hahahaha! Anyway its a break from Zambian Politics.
    BBC says – Having a big bum, hips and thighs ‘is healthy
    Carrying extra weight on your hips, bum and thighs is good for your health, protecting against heart and metabolic problems, UK experts have said.

  19. # 18 and # 19 you live in country where that kind of business is well known, ma girls bu Ukraina baliko bad Munzanga ama donsa bauko

  20. Walyako, ine nili ku UK, ba LT always screw my flag. But olo kuno kudonsa ni same-same.Ati bwanji pa Poland?
    Nanga ba Tracy, #21 ni kuti uko?

  21. This is sick ppl and there is no sense in supporting this. No wonder we may all eventually die out from HIV-Aids or be terribly decimated in the space of a few decades … To those who think BROTHELS as they are known to be in the West can be achieved in Zambia at this time, there in Chawama, Kalingalinga and other “komboni”, or in numerous other similar places offering no amenities for modern hygiene (such as clean water, public health basics, personal hygiene / of those sl*ts etc), I say get a life!

  22. Ala ama brothel namu nshita ya Mfumu Yesu kristu eko yali…nanombaline Mu jelusalem emoyali…Just legalize prostitution…but just hike the price 10 pin is too affordable…

  23. Ala ama brothel namu nshiku ya Mfumu Yesu kristu eko yali…nanombaline Mu jelusalem emoyali…Just legalize prostitution…but just hike the price 10 pin is too affordable…The problem ba Sambia we pretenda lot to be holy…with the christian nation thing, Sambia mukya is more dirty than Sodoma and Gomora put together…

  24. # 24 Kaya

    I thought you are Eukrain coz the flag Poland is freezing but they are keeping us warm. Here we actully run away from them girls from that country meaning the flag you have ma girls balinayo talent ya kwelana and they are very cheap if you are from africa you can even get free of charge coz we are known to be bulls

  25. #5 Katete bar is different from Bulawayo bar, thhough both are in Chawama. There are many more in the same area rthat operate as brothels. To help the so called investgators I will name a few.On cahawama road from Makeni there is Blue water motel, pa chilufya . jc , then furter down the road there is pa miti and polepole. If you stop pa kanzelu pena lizanda. The whole Chawama is a brothel.

  26. Good morning. I like the pretence being exhibited here. Investigate what? Funny enough, we are not being told if an effort was made to contact the owner of the ‘brothel’ for a comment. Sounds like heresay to me, or worse still, ma jealousy chabe. Fi twenu has always been there. Just legalize the trade, chapwa! For your own information, even Intercontinental is used as a brothel, so finshi mulelanda? The author of this story is most likely female who caught her partner frequenting the place. Elatubepa, ala!

  27. Ba Moze if they legalize it, expect the number of AIDS patients to be higher than the current one. Although its being done in some places, its better not to legalize it coz it will be a shame to the society. We cannot turn our country into Bangkok, we have morals and traditions that has been passed from one generation to other. All those men that have too much appetite will be encourage to continue and we will have so many Tiger Woods with broken homes which will have bad effects on children.

  28. it is rather embarrassing to those who don’t have sex with women,but for some of us who do it is quit a development,i wouldn’t say a very nice one as i like having sex with a person i know a bit atleast,but if i were a sex crazy guy with an appetite that is mearnt for horses i would ligalize it…..sex is really something huh

  29. women are the cousers of all this sh**t,ngabaleshowingako skill mu bed natatuya kuli ba mama baluse,because penagu imavuta bwana joni but stoga teti ndabe
