Chingola ‘Miner’ Buried Alive
A 34-YEAR-OLD illegal miner died instantly after he was buried alive at the Konkola Copper Mine Nchanga open pit mine in Chingola.
Copperbelt commissioner of police Mary Tembo, who confirmed the development in an interview yesterday, said the accident happened around 01:00 hours yesterday.
Ms Tembo named the deceased as Davison Yungana of house number 36, Bangweulu Street in Chingola’s Chiwempala township.
“Mr Yungana was buried alive at a place called the Bench sample cop, popularly known as Moolmans. The body has been retrieved and it is in the Nchanga Hospital mortuary,” she said.

1. May the soul of this man rest in peace and condolences to his family
2. This is what failure to provide quality employment opprtunities to citizens can lead to
3. This is what happens when people want to reap where they did not sow.
4. This is the reason one should study Mining Engineering studies before venturing into actual mining.

Iwe na Mpundu learn to read & understand the article before u comment! So u wanted to put the burden on our govt over an illegal miner?The problem in Zambia is that pipo love money a lot hence, enganging themselves in illigal activities & this is the result.

@Bana Mpundu, what should govt compensate the guy when he was illegally mining? The govt didn’t send him to go and illegally go mining. Its unfortunate that his life is lost but that was purely his fault

Ba Mwenya Mwaume you are not realistic. How do you know it was the love of money that made him do those illegal activities? We all need to eat and mind you not everyone is employed or has capital to start a business.

Very sorry indeed,his family have lost a breadwinner who was trying to put food on the table but unfortunately life has been lost .
This satanist TB Joshua will surely finish us if his not being stopped. what is he going to say now about his so called predictions ?
Honestly, do we have pastors in zambia who can pray for this satanic demon which is finishing our people ?
Let him have Mercy on us,zim is not very far where Robert is about to die you just go and finish him .

So sad for this great brother, he did it for his family trying to have something to eat. We shall carry on your legacy brother man, the guy never stole for innocent people, we shall all finish because our govt cannot provide us with decent jobs. One wonders what negotiations our govt makes with investors when the come to invest in our mother Zambia. You are a hero, REST IN PEACE.
