Snake Bites Mupulungu DEBS In His Office
Mpulungu district education Board secretary Douglas Samukange Yesterday wept uncontrollably after he was bitten by a snake in his office.
Samukange was bitten by a Gabon viper and rushed to Mpulungu rural health center for medical attention.
Samukange is reported to have been bitten on his ankle during working hours.
Sources said samukange at first thought he was bitten by red ants but was horrified when he discovered the snake under one of his office chairs.
The snake was killed but there is mounting suspicion on ‘who had sent it’
Sources further said that Samukange drank close to two litres of water and wept uncontrollably after finding out that a viper had bitten him.
The viper is an extremely venomous but docile ground-dwelling snake found in tropical forests of western and central Africa.

Sad news to hear Mr. Samukage my friend from Isoka, kaputa and is now in mpulungu. it seems your office assistant does not clean that office regularly. Never mind boi you be ok. “Samukange at first thought he was bitten by red ants but was horrified when he discovered the snake under one of his office chairs.” why cry instead of rushing to the hospital man. I am hoping that the condition is okay by now.

Was he bare footed in the office, may be why he was bitten on his ankle. In remote office please secure good “our own bata” shoe each time you think going to the office. This remaind me of my great-grand father, who was urinated by a female monkey as he was addressing a church council at quot-yard of his house. tachaweme, check your premised each time you want to conduct business

Vipers almost never get to be found in smooth and open places like houses and offices. there can only be one reason to find such a serpent in the office….RATS. Otherwise i find it really interesting to investigate what lead it there.
