  1. Another high profile case with endless adjournments. Steal a pig or goat and you have a cell number even before you taste the meat. Its a rough world!

  2. Ati ABBZ 4325 te ABZ fye mwachilafwaya ukulemba. As if that is not enough, ati ‘he and his brother were arrested on November 30 this year’. Are u sure?

    • It may sometimes be difficult to ascertain one’s precise level of consciousness from other situations but definitely not so difficult from this wrong quote “November 30 this year”

    • Nyonse ‘bmx’ & ‘Zambian’ muleke ku hweba lubanje! Muleke ukupepa ibange! Muleke ku bema mbanje! Mu tuhele kuzuba matokwani! ‘Zambian’ why add error on your bmx friend’s already myopic perception. ‘Zambian’ where did you pick the ‘n’ in ‘mwachilafwaNya’ when your cohort ‘bmx’ reasonably wrote ‘mwachilafyaya.’ DEC i bet you pretty have a statistic right here!

  3. Jazzman and Maradona! What some spicy names? I wonder what the father was thinking when christening those names! Chikwakwa means slasher by the way.

    • Hahaha! Some parents behave like politicians; they suddenly have the power to do the ridiculous… just look at some government leaders behaving like depraved relatives of a rich man.
