Chief government spokesperson Lieutenant General Ronnie Shikapwasha says government will direct the ministry of local government and housing to investigate and arrest individuals behind the installation of bill boards in Lusaka alerting the public that the world is coming to an end on 21st May, 2011.
General Shikapwasha says government will not condone people who want to cause chaos in the country.
He wonders how the bill boards were put up when they were not authorized by the local council.
And General Shikapwasha has appealed to the general public not to be bothered by the bill boards by Family Radio with a message reading in part, “we are almost there”.
Bill boards have been placed at Manda Hill and along Makishi road, warning the public that the world is coming to an end on 21st May, 2011.
And Former Roman Catholic Archbishop Emmanuel Milingo has cautioned citizens to be wary of false prophets as prophesied in the Bible.
Archbishop Milingo has urged the public to remain faithful and stay cautious of many more false prophesies to come.

Ronnie, the world is coming to an end for you and Lupiya. Prepare yourselves.
Haha! .. I wouldn’t bother too much about such things Mr Shikas . We shld focus on more important things. Looks like you are itching to arrest pipo nowadays.
Zambians are very dull indeed, the most confounding thing about these prophets is that they have many followers,especially among the illiterates.How a sane person believe these lies defies the commonest of senses, such trash is popular especially amongst women(am not a sexist).And the most annoying thing is that,more often than not ,these prophets are foreigners.They just steal money people taking advantage of the slumberness of zambians .Infact deport them.Ati the world is coming to an end…
They are warning themselves. How hilarious is this?
But why even put up billboards for such nonses, the bible is clear on this one.
prophets of doom why worry anyway, after the said dates we can use the bill boards for somthong more useful.
@ 3. That kind of news came to Zambia just recently. In the US its been there for some yrs now. The Family Radio ( an American Radio, in America) has been telling people the same information, Almost every day, there is a live phone-in program where people ask concerning the ending of the world on such a given date.
The problem with the MMD is that staying in power is an issue of life and death. So, they want to react to anything that seems to threaten their continued stay in power. How can governement be threatened by a bill claiming the end of the world? I wonder what these guys talk about in cabinet meetings!!!!
Can the Ministry of Local Government and Housing arrest anybody?
” investigate and arrest ”
Investigate and arrest? Someone is getting desperate. How about all those apocalyptic christian churches? Are they going to be arrested too? :)
mwayamba kufunta manje pa Zed
No. 3 Rat race,
Your are an i.d.i.o.t. How can you call own people dull. The reason you left Zambia is becuase you are too dull to make it. Yes am not there too. I ran a business but it never flourished. Am making kings and queens here at www dot delgadgets dot com. Yes am now better experienced to handle a business back home and deal with extra pressures like deceit, theft and dishonesty. But all these things are there because of lack of employment. We all need to go back and resettle home at one time or another with better skills than we left with. I will not call Zambians Dull. You must apologise.
have a nice day.
Idle Soldier mentality. Why arrest someone for such when the council should just charge the rent/rates plus penalties for putting up a billboard without authority.
This world will not end in our life times so why should the government be worried about this non sense.
I remember the Jehova’s Witnesses telling the world that there will be Armageddon and the world would come to an end in 1974 but that past and Kenneth Kaunda did not arrest anybody.
It is not for the Ministry of Works and Supply to investigate any criminal activities, it is for the police!! that is why we get things wrong in Zed!!!
Shika just go for these guys and put them behind bars if not deport them. In-fact such bill boards should not even be given a chance to be displayed to begin with. After all MMD wants to be in power forever and here comes a f.o.o.l who wants to stop MMD from enjoying the fruits of the nation!
@ RAT RACE hahahahaha that is funny but sadly true. Zambian women, some of them that is think that any foreign male organ is a treasure. Surprise surprise when the get to the west and realize these men don’t even no how to be husbands let alone men( undercover gays). Then when the marry our sisters the want to insert their Zwambos into our sisters spintchter valves sorry for the graphic biology there but let the truth be told. I had to console a sister from one of our African states because her husband wanted to have unnatural things done to her. So brothers when you see a sister abroad anywhere and the are new to tue west educate them on these crazy happenings.
This is one occasion I am supporting shikas, government has to protect it’s people from these money grabbing demonic instigators. Like people above have stated they are not even Zambians starting these falsenesses.
Long nose learn to solve issues amicably not threatening with arrests on everything. Unneccessary arrests bring war try to arrest PVT advocate and see what will follow. Wanya wanya tateka ichalo.
This creature has been asleep of late. Who woke him up? Can someone knock him on the head again?
Isn’t this freedom of expression and religious liberty on the part of advertisers? Shikapwasha please just concentrate on more serious issues and please stop issuing stupi.d threats at anything that moves. This guy is taking a piss, does he think all Zambians are that daft to accept everything. This big fo.ol is now insulting our intelligence.
It’s coming to an end for MMD.
Chi General mwandi chilitolokoshi, ni follow, follow the leader even if that leader has no clue where he/she is going. Time is up, start preparing your katundu.
Shikapwasha, what kind of general are you? Ala mwandi wabwelapofye. Let me break it down for you dull general.
This is a coded message aimed at your govt that kuyabebele. Its not about the whole world but MMD world only..
You cant decode that simple message dull soldier?
Funny, both Milingo and Shikapwasha are the leading contenders for title of Zambian prophet of doom. Therefore we don’t need to look that far. Arrest them both immediately!!
Start by arresting shikapwasha himself for being a not only a prophet of doom, but a FALSE prophet. Heere is a reverend who does not practice what he preaches but instead chooses to lie through both sides of his big mouth and nose; all for a few pieces of silver! Those billboards are about you and your fellow thieves that your time is up. But yoyu are so think even that basic simple messages passes right by you and you dont have a clue!!
I think shikapwapwa is slowly running out of ideas now.Firstly,I find that he does not know wats behind those billboard message and thinks the are talking about mmds coming to an end thus talking about them.If they start removing those billboards,where is council going to generate revenue? Knowin that already that govt has already stripped two third of their income? Those billboards earn the council 3,6m money the contribute to service provision pa last you ll start talkin at the council cant even provide service kanshi bafi ka la ninshi yu re busy striping revenue from them.
shack the ants even more ,it’s not the board that will tell not even shikapwasha to dispute but time wil tel
Why waste precious time on making such statements Ronnie. There are more serious things to be tackled in the country.
It just goes to say that LCC has weak by-laws.
#29(He wonders how the bill boards were put up when they were not authorized by the local council.)- The Council is afraid that may be MMD supports these people. On Ronnie- is scared of the end of the world. I thought that as Reverend he would very much welcome this event.
People have been predicting the end of the world for thousands of years….. this is nothing new. Me? I just plan to keep on breathing.
Ba General, it seems you are looking for people to arrest! I must have seen similar bill boards in Ndola… Go catch them, General! …. Do you really think Zambians are dimwits to believe this nonsense, aye?!
Shika. the Disgraced General who hid in Munali Hills during the capt Solo uprising is at it again. Who woke him up from the slumber, the moment his eyes popped out / openned he shouted ARREST them.
They are just cheating themselves. The world will never end but each person living on this earth will end one day. Possibly these false prophets know they are sick “elo kaleya kalelepuka- ifi fyakulya ubushiku!! Even after the looming third world war those who will remain, will go ahead and re-build the world and maybe even make it more modernized than it is today.
#1, kwena you’re so funny. Thus why you’re number 1.
I am not religious but I think the billboard is ironically right, if indeed it is put up by false prophets. Do you all get it? The bible is clear on this one – “in the last days….false prophets shall rise.” Be they right or wrong, the message may very well be true.
Dishwasher is being sponsored by “Family Radio” to hype their advertising billboard.
It’s plain to see how easy Zambians jump at gimmicks.
Did you all panic at the movie 2012?
All of you religious nut cases jumped as if this was a go at your idol.
CAN ANYTHING GOOD PROCEED OUT OF SHIKAPWASHA’S MOUTH? I DOULT….. RONNIE , LIFE IS NOT ABOUT ISSUING THREATS… YOU NEED TO DISCUSS ANYWAY CANT BLAME YOU CAUSE YOU ARE DULL AND CAN’T REASON
@23 GOOD ANALYSIS …CHEBENIKO CHI DISGRACED GENERAL…………….CIFWILE CHALEPONA SANA KU PRIMARY SCHOOL I WONDER IF HE EVEN PASSED STANDARD 4 MASHINDANO…..
come to think of it, shikapono is right, these pipo talking about the end of the world are going to scare people into doing shit they re possed to do
Massive Earthquake of 8.4 magnitude/Tsunami has hit Japan, what does this tell you General Shika? These are signs……. REPENT than clinging on to power!
#3 Rat Race
You must be the biggest fool indeed! Calling a whole country dull. Your balls will rot and fall off
SI SAME STORY WITH HOW SDA CHURCH WAS STARTED. FIRST PREDICT THE DAY OF THE END OF THE WORLD THERE AFTER START A NEW POWERFUL CHURCH. BA SHIKAPWASHA DONT WORRY WITH THIS ONE AS WELL SOMETHING GOOD WILL COME AFTER THAT which WILL HELP UPHOLD THE GOOD MORALS OF OUR PEOPLE.
“ELLEN G. WHITE STRATEGY REVISED IN THE MORDERN TIME KA”
There you go again not being serious. If you can not forgive the people putting these things and want them arrested, you are behaving the same way romans did to people of God long time ago. I expected you to say find these people and preach the truth to them instead of arresting them. Please you should know better when it comes to spiritual things and not outlightly judge. Dont you think some of those brothers and sisters doing that may be lost souls which need your help to understand the bible teachings?
@42 ,ZEUS,am above that nonsene you have written ,so i wont pull myself down,sorry.CAT POWERr# 12,its not my fought that your thing is of a senile muppet,i thought i insinuated in my statement that those who believe such lies are dull.So its not my fault that you reasoning is pathetic.No apology from me my brother,sorry.Enjoy your days.
@ 45 meant its not my fault.
I meant ‘who need you help’ in 44
ba milingo how is maria chanx sui youg is she pregnant now or you have divorced her.bakaamba mwanwako diamond blue yena ilabomba sana elyo nakalini akabishi mwapwilapo .awe ni lekako
people people, maybe the world is coming to an end at the stated date on those billboards. see what’s happening in Japan right now.
BA REV DONT BE THREATENED U R A MAN OF GOD JUST TRUST IN YAWEH AND PRAY
#12:
I appreciate people like you. You are honest and straight to the point. #3; You are still a Zambian – so that your statement means you are also DULL – if not morethan those in Zambia like me. Am not dull and will never be; but does that stop a false prophet from putting up a billboard – NO! Come back to Zed and make a living if you are “strong” – hahahahaha. I make money – good money in Zambia and have been all over the world; but home is home for me.
Here i can do all I need to make this country better than ukulamekela mufyabene! Kwana bene; tekwakumekela – one day, you will come to the roots!
