POLICE in Mansa on Monday arrested a conman who had been going round purporting to be President Michael Sata’s son and swindling unsuspecting organisations and members of the public out of huge sums of money.
The man was arrested along with his accomplice, a Kitwe resident who was posing as a police officer.
The two had been going round swindling companies and individuals out of money and gifts using the name of the president.
‘Michael Mpanga Sata’, 30, was arrested together with his partner in crime, Paul Chileshe, who acted as his bodyguard and carrying a non-existent police rank of inspector colonel.
The two had been going to different parts of the country where they presented themselves as Mr Sata’s son and a police officer assigned to protect the president’s son, respectively.
The fraudulent activities came to a dead end when some alert members of the public in Mansa reported them to the police who immediately instituted investigations and discovered that they were just imposters.
Luapula Province Deputy Commissioner of Police, Aaron Mushanga, said yesterday that the two were charged with impersonation.

Ba Junta naimwe,What do you mean by punctuation,What is the role of an apostrophe in the sentence or to a word.So what kodoja English are you talking about.The headline is misleading.It can only be justified by saying that the writer wanted to fulfill the principle of attracting the attention of readers.Not that ‘Kudoja’ you are talking with your punctuations justification.

‘Sata’s’ and Sata’s are different in press English. The former means not the actual Sata’s son. So the heading is correct. Press English te ya fikopo.

It is of no consequence. If its his brother’s son – is he not his son in our African tradition! So why the fussy!

Correct headline! Correct punctuation! Thus, the story remains legible, and sensible. The fact that some readers had preconceived ideas about the story does not remove credence to the story istelf!

It’s amezing when I sit back in this country and look at how media feed people with wrong information just to make money (what makes you different from your accusations? you’re making money over lies), in other countries they have jounalists who go underground to investigate the real stories but us, we hear a story in a bar and quickly publish. And without realizing that you can be sued for defamation!!!! I wonder when we will be at par with Sky,BBC…etc…so sad. I love my country but sometimes I feel like being in Zambia is a waste of time. I may not know these guys but I know the truth and everything am seeing in media is totally rubish…THE END!!!
