Farewell Jomwa!! What a worthy way of bidding farewell by his colleagues!

Any idea how some of our prominent personalities must be mourned?

Guess who the owner of the limosine is, any idea how he/she managed? MMD dancers in pic 6 should join zambia national dance troupe.

I have been a fan of Zambia Radio drama and Zambia one comedy. Joemwa Mtsinje Mwale! what a great entertainer! I feel so sad and touched, he is one person who brought humor to Zambians despite the poverty and hardships people are going through….go well my brother, your life was a worthwhile journey. Condolenses to the family.

Yes Shoprite are worst employers and they deserve the industrial action by unionised staff. What is wrong with this investor. Keep the pressure until you achieve what you are owed. Retail outlet of Shoprites type they have made clossal loses due to their bad employments policies. Let them Pack the bags and go others will come and fill the gap.
fiasob March 30, 2011 At 5:14 pm

No 13 you must be frustrated in life and a looser. At least I know one of the men in pic #25 met him in london at the zambian embassy some 15 years ago, he is a career diplomat and a dedicated civil servant not you looser.
THE ONLY LIVING JAY March 30, 2011 At 5:15 pm

The passing of Joemwa Msinje Mwale iz very sad. In the Zambia Radio Drama every Monday evening on ZNBC Radio 2, Joemwa waz such marvel and I waz ever glued to the radio.
Very interesting, Siulapwa haz a “National Secretariat”!
Nubian Princess March 30, 2011 At 5:33 pm

#19 Fiasob –

I repeat pic#25 RBs Chamber Maids. They spend their days kneeling for RB, picking up after him and covering his incompetencies. There are no diplomats worth respecting in the Zambian government. Look at the way embassies are run.

Very sad to learn of the passing of Joemwa Msinje Mwale – he was a great natural talent – the last of the “5 star comedy generals”

@ Canadian Zambian was he on Sowero? May Joemwa Msinje Mwale’s soul rest in peace. Let’s pray for his family, friends and relatives for the good Lord to give the solace and rest in distress; Lord Jesus provide for them in all their life’s needs. Salvation aswell, Amen.

# 17-Norwegian despite having money don`t believe in showing it off through material possesions.Dudes with limos like that will leave their cars packed and instead take public transportation, no wonder it is difficulty to know who has money here.Hence your kumushi is contextual my friend.

Malonje kwainu nonse mwapedza mpata otimba mmadzulo ano. Okubweletserani sowero ndine Jomwa Msinje Mwale. Sowero was something not to miss from the days of Home service to radio 2. Those were great days. Pitani bwino a Mwale, muzimu wanu uutse ndi mtendere.

Pict #25 I recognise one face there. I didnt know the gentleman was a shushushu. I will mind what I say next time we meet as these people know no friendship.

How do you expect our police officers not to be corrupt when they operate in such squallor?

Awe #31 Mushota. What exactly are you trying to say. That you are swirling? Mocha and Milk?

Personally, pic#6 is just folk having fun with dance. They are not naked so whats the big deal?

The limousine is probably a business investment and is hired out to people to use on wedding and the like. No sane person will buy a limo to use just to get around in Zambia

Picture 23 please pa Zed…ni police office honestly so??? Nkawzi please do something…even if you are about to leave office lol!

Looks like I came in late for the mid-week pics and most of my thoughts have already been uttered by other bloggers, but anyway…

RIP to the deceased entertainer.Zambia has lost a lot of great talents in the arts.

Pic #6,7 reminds me of a song we used to sing when I was young – ati “Ba Kaunda bali leshya uku shana Bump Dance…” This time nobody sees anything wrong with a little bump dance. Lol!

#25. Americans have the money and are loud and proud about it. Who cares about what those Nords do? Leave the Zambian dude alone.
Dr. XYZ March 31, 2011 At 2:02 am

I am suprised how people on this blog can think a Limo cannot be found in Zambia. Please you people abroad, come to Zambia and see how it has developed. You find all your friends owning mansions and driving Limos and hammers as you languish and work like a slave abroad. Mukabwele fye tukesa mipokelela.
Nubian Princess March 31, 2011 At 4:43 am

#38 Dr. XYZ – That is hater talk. Zambia is developed, where? Weren’t we just mourning the death of Ruggers who were killed needlessly because of lack of emergency responders?

FYI – Hummers are no longer manufactured because in the real developed world there is no demand for them anymore. If you are smart you will know why.

Many Zambians thrive and live well abroad and are citizens of the respective countries they migrated to. So bakabwela kwisa kunsala uko ku Zambia where you cant even get basic health care unless you can afford a private hospital.

Did you see the picture of the police post above? Open your eyes my dear. Problem with Zambians is you get content with peanuts. You see a limo in Lusaka and you think it is development.
so shut your lazy self up and go limo…

# 39 things are not as bad you perceive, my mum was ill recently and she was treated at UTH for almost nothing. Dont think that becoming an American citizen is something, you can be one but you cannot even afford to visit your relatives in Zambia who are not American citizens, come on lets face facts, if one works hard in Zambia the sky is the limit. Zambia is our motherland nor matter what we may become, lets pray for our leaders who are letting us down that they make selfless decisons for the benefit of all of us. Iam proud to be Zambian and I can afford a ticket to the USA.
Chitapankwa April 15, 2011 At 8:31 am

These pictures are really nice and sharp ba LT! Is that woman (pic 23) a police woman? Let’s be serious. She cannot chase and arrest anybody. The police station itself is a joke. If you get locked up in there, you are bound not to come out alive.
