Sad indeed. We drivers have been warned several times not to driver under the influence of alcohol but all in vein. See now what he has caused. He must be punnished.

Aaaah, another PF engineered “sacrifice” no doubt, since nothing seems to happen in Zambia without some sort of PF complicity.

The people to blame are the so-called Leaders like this Hakainde Hichilema who are in the habit of buying these youths beer (opaque beer in the case of HH). If these youths were sober, this accident could have been avoided certainly!!!

Too bad for that accident. But what seems good is that the government has come in to meet all funeral the expenses.

I agree!! BUT WHAT TROUBLES ME IS THE REASON WHY POLITICAL PARTIES LIKE UPND HAVE TO CONTINUE IMPORTING POLITICAL CADRES FROM DIFFERENT PLACES!! THIS IS PRIMITIVE AND MUST STOP. IF UPND HAD NOT DECIDED TO BUS THOSE PEOPLE FROM WHERE THEY LIVE, THEY COULD HAVE STILL BEEN ALIVE TODAY.

Insansa shinya ubulanda, lets us avoid what is an avoidable drinking and driving is dangerous. Loosing peoples’s lives speciously where can be avoided is very sad. Stop accusing innocent people, death is a natural disaster
