💔 DOUBLE TRAGEDY -CHILANGWA LOSES FATHER WEEKS AFTER BURYING WIFE
…………. A story soaked in sorrow, and tears too heavy to hold back
In a devastating twist of fate, political prisoner Nickson Chilangwa has been struck by yet another unbearable loss of his beloved father, Mr. John Chilangwa, has passed away just three weeks after Nickson laid his wife to rest.
Mr. Chilangwa, who had been admitted to Mansa General Hospital, took his final breath on Wednesday evening, his heart failing under the crushing weight of grief and helplessness.
According to sources at the hospital, the elderly man had been visibly shaken after watching his son bound by political chains silently endure the anguish of burying the love of his life without the comfort of freedom or justice. Those close to the family say Mr. Chilangwa died of a broken heart, having suffered a heart attack triggered by overwhelming sorrow and emotional distress.
This is not just the death of a man. It is the death of peace in a family that has known only pain in recent days. First, a wife. Now, a father. All while a son sits behind bars, carrying a grief no man should have to bear alone.
He was not only mourning a daughter-in-law but he was watching his son wither under the weight of political persecution and personal loss, powerless to protect him, unable to lift the pain.
This is more than tragedy; it is heartbreak in its rawest form.
As Zambia watches, a family crumbles under the silence of the system, and a son weeps behind walls that will never echo his pain.
May Mr. John Chilangwa rest in eternal peace.
And may this nation pause to feel the pain before turning the page.
More details to follow.

Does this mean all the judges we have in our courts don’t pass right judgement and all the convicts in our prison are wrongly prisoned.
Exactly my question, how is it that it was right for Nixon Chilangwa to commit all the nonsense he did and he must be free because his family is in the limelight? There are many families who are grieving silently from the bruises that were caused by bena Chilangwa in their time of terror. Let’s allow Chilangwa to learn and teach others directly and indirectly. We need a better Zambia like the one some of us found when we were young.
Rather inflamatory article laced with biased prejudice.
“after watching his son bound by political chains silently endure the anguish of burying the love of his life without the comfort of freedom or justice.”
So Nickson Chilangwa didnt commit a crime?
This is making a mockery of the courts. I think the writer should rethink what they learnt as a trade. This is not journalism.
