The High Commission of Zambia in South Africa would like to advise Zambians travelling to Durban to exercise caution at this time due to the high threat of attack on foreign nationals.
Although the pattern so far shows that shops owned by foreigners are being targeted, we would, however, wish to advise that you pay close attention to your personal security at all times and monitor the media for information about possible new safety or security risks.
The Mission is engaging all relevant South African Government wings to ensure the safety of all our citizens in South Africa.
Zambian citizens who travel to or reside in South Africa are urged to register with the High Commission to make it easier for the Mission to contact them in case of emergency.
Online registration is available via www.zambiapretoria.net. Zambians without internet access may enroll directly with the Zambian Mission in Pretoria.
The Mission is located at 570, Ziervogel Street (Off Hamilton Street), Arcadia, Pretoria, South Africa; telephone (+27) (012) 326-1847/97; fax (+27) (012) 326-2140.

Kiki this is when you want to talk about registration. Foolish ineffective advise by the commissioner. What people need are practical advice on specific areas to avoid and how to go about their daily life under caution. How will making an online registration help us when the commissioner should already have information on its citzens who are there? You only want to concern yourselves with zambians when thigns have hit the fan? The PF does not care for you zambians. ALl they care about is fattening themselves abroad.
Kwena ulicisushi iwe….
kwena uli bolo iwe. Peoples lives are at risk ule bwata bwata kwati ubwali wapa northmead maliket. iwe chita get out. Please only comment on my well thought out comments if you have something sensibe to say. You must be still drunk from that chibukuk celebratory drink
Iwe chikala,do you do any other thing apart from blogging?We are fed up with your useless comments.Find something to keep you busy.
NEZ, UPND has to overhaul and that overhaul should begin from the Top otherwise we’ll keep having the same results election after election.
What is happening in South Africa is the worst kind of barbarism in history of Africa since the Slave trade. Burning a Human Being alive like a rat, God forbids sisters and brothers.
South Africans should be chased from all African Countries. They are the worst barbaric people in history.
I cant even compare them to Edgar Lungu, Chishimba Kambwili, Emmanuel Mwamba and Brian Haapunda. These four guys are equally barbaric but for God’s sake, their barbarism is no match to the ruthless South Africans.South Africa should face regional sanctions.
South Africans are cursing themselves just like Zimbabweans did when their country was paradise. Who thought Zimbabweans could be refugees in Zambia when they were day in day out in Victoria Falls Towns mocking Zambians our poverty. God is greater than this small country of RSA. He can bring it down and allow them to massacre each other to zero while we are gone. this xenophobia wont end with blacks. after blacks are gone they will realise that things are not any better and will go for whites. After whites things will degenerate to where they will slaughter each other and burn this country down completely, after all there is already tribalism here among them.
Every African should stand up and be counted. Africa lost a lot of blood during independence struggle and God forbids that blood should again continue being shade now by fellow Africans. South Africa will be the worst hated country in the world and risks becoming a failed state like Somalia and other Arab Countries which have heavily invested in violence.

Hildah Malama watch yo tongue!
South Africans ubututu and laziness,they want everything free.
edu morning,so as usual I was reading your comments and you think the commissioner should have a list of people living in SA, wow that’s strange,some how you picture Zambians in SA yo be at least 20 or less,no one really knows how many Zambians are there mwana all they can do is show them where to meet,neither do we know how many we are in Zambia,yes we can approximate through census but no we can’t know ecactly how many we are
Very dull boy. Unless you zambians are there illegally it is possible to ascertain every one who is there.
and so the commissioner should be seated on the computer receiving phone calls ati 20 Zambians have reached by bus another 20 by plane,though 15 more have registered to travel back and 7 are already on the bus,mmmm sure edu that’s how you think,awe boi,you see no Zambian has been killed so far and what they are doing is preventing any from dying,so if anyone wants to travel back or needs shelter there they provide for them
How do you know non have died when you have no record of who is there?Do Not be foolish iwe. Am sure you need formal acceptance to be in that country which means every legal zambian should be on record. Now it is the zambian commissioner job to grow a brain and network with sa authority to have such info. Since pf is too incompetent to do this from the exit port in Zambia. Foolish pf
edu anger anger dude,cool off,it must have been the by election,let it go dude adapt and move on,OK now your question of how do I know no Zambian has died,be because all the people who have died have been identified my guy,if a body was recorded dead with any identity then we would worry,soon the families who have failed to be in touch with their loved ones would come out,then we would want the family to see the corps for I’d sake, wamona ka?
So this fool makes the assumption that every person in South Africaffrom zambia will have relatives. Also another dull assumption is that the only deaths happening in a country like south Africa is due to xenophobic attacks. Now look in mirror and close windows in your house and whisper “ndine chipuba”
of course you need a formal acceptance man,but your thinking is limited,other Zambians travel to maybe Congo,buy stones then travel to SA from Congo,others go from SA and export goods to Malawi,others go from SA to UK,others from UK to SA, it doesn’t mean that if you are in another country you can’t travel to another country unless you return to Zambia,get registered then travel,awe boi you can’t keep all records up to date
Kiki pf way of thinking. In other words we can’t manage he says. Meanwhile most countries are doing this especially with terror threats and what not. We not sayin keep records of transit travellers. Important to keep those of long term residents in South African. Ubututu
By the way pf stop asking me to rejoin your party. There is a reason i left that clueless party fill of incompetent scatter brains like kambwili. Please i shall remain upnd. I know am a threat and a very influential blogger
as a team7500 secretary,we cant sink so low to ask u to join our great mighty PF,we have vibrant people like JOBREAKER,JJB and many others who mean well to this great nation.
u are just an empty UPND tin who is a danger to the society,a rapist and tonga bull very dangerous to the childrens.
PF as a part cant allow people with small brains like u chikala,sorry in PF we are principled and very much matured,on top of that PF is a party for well meaning zambians who can contribute to the economic development of this country.
chinyo chanoko waunfwa? waba umusula kwati chinyo chambwa.
Kiki you sound upset. Please read through all articles and see your fellow buffoons asking me to rejoin. Team 7500 my foot. 7500 illiterate bigots more like. Stay strong am upnd for life bane. Why would I join pf which is MMD reloaded. Same old thieves
@NEZ shut up and sit down young man,all the position are not vacant,i can only advice u to go back the village in southern province becoz thats were u belong.ifisush fyangombe fyalimishindaula sana
ati Ndine chipuba,lmao hahahaha,awe MWe,laughter is medicine my guy,OK check edu,if you have no relatives,then you should have friends right? if no friends at least workmates who know you right? if not my friend no one will know u,he he he,so whose the real chipuba
edu naiwe we have not failed,we have told all Zambians who by the way have all survived to call those numbers up there,then from their they will be told what to do and where to go,am I the only one seeing those numbers or what? I know you just care edu for the Zambians souls,do not worry they are safe OK?
pillar it seems talking to this guy edu is like talking to a stone,he never listens,even if u beat the stone it just breaks into smaller pieces but still remains a stone
UPND MULIVIPUBA ZANA 2016U ARE IN PROBLEMS
Hildah Malama
You talked wel on south africa,but dot insult our leaders,as its sam as insulting your parents.
Wait for 2016,that is if you have a voters card.
South africans are fools and not hard working,poor thinking they are.
Life is funny,they will one day be refgees in zambia and be ashamed.
May God punish them all
The trush is that ,only SA criminals are doing such mecy. Even SA goverment has condemed the incidency,the only way is get back home . kupusa batii….
The High Commissioner should have investigated more, its not only shop owners I have a bunch of actual 6 videos people being burnt including kids, one woman was being hacked with machetes while her kid is on her back.
Please read pillars comment above that attributes to you and the party you belong to
Zambians in South Africa are alot some went there during Kaunda era, Chiluba, Mwanawasa, Banda and I am pretty sure the will continue doing so this has got nothing to do with what government is in power, even advanced countries in economies and technology have their citizens all over the globe, politicizing Zambians in SA is just being foolish.
judge Joe I think you should have said EDU politicizing Zambia is just foolish,because edu believes you are talking to someone else and not him
In a telephone interview from Pretoria yesterday, Mr Chikonde allayed fears that some Zambians resident in South Africa have been affected by the xenophobic attacks.
Mr Chikonde said the mission is engaging all relevant South African government wings to ensure the safety of all Zambians.
Most of Zambians live in areas far from the settlements affected by xenophobia.
The mission has put in place measures to protect Zambians in that country.
“We have also dispatched a team to Durban to assess the situation and secure the lives of Zambians,” he said.
The mission is taking the situation with precaution even though Zambians are not affected in the attacks.
And Chief Government Spokesperson Chishimba Kambwili says Zambians working in South Africa have not been affected by the ongoing Xenophobic attacks in that country.
Mr Kambwili also says government has not received reports of any affected Zambian.
He has since condemned the attacks in South Africa.
Mr Kambwili says the world is a global village and people need to coexist.
The Minister said this in an interview with ZNBC News in Lusaka.
Does Kambwili really knows whats going on? I doubt Malawi is the only country in the region that has officially ordered its citizen to move out of SA, South Africans arent asking which country you from s’long as you are a foreigner you are burnt alive – the necklace style (burning tyre around your neck)
Guys stop wasting your Energy with these Lunatics who need a Rocket scientists to tell the that when in a foreign country we are advised to move with passports at all TIMES,in case of anything,Ambassador is simply sending a word of advice. To traveling and residents in that country. who has the time to start carrying out Census in a foreign land,No wonder why opposition in this country has sunk so low because of such idiots who are clueless and take time to Analyze simpler issues as this one.
And when Guy Scott called S/Africans backward HH & his blind followers condemned him. What do you call this foolish way of doing things? They forget there are S.Africans living in other countries too!
