BURYING LUNGU IN SA ALSO AN OPTION – FAMILY
… It’s not the family to conform to govt’s desires but viceversa
The late former president Edgar Lungu’s family says burying his remains in South Africa is an option if the government sustains its disrespect for his wish to have his body repatriated to Zambia by the family.
Speaking with Daily Revelation on information that the government was insisting on forcing its will to transport the former president’s remains, even with threats of closing the airspace to any private flight that would be arranged by the family, family spokesperson

Good idea. Me as a Zambian South African welcome it. Put your house in order gents.
That’s the advice from the uncultured corrupt crooks. We know that the grieved family in the time of mourning can say and suggest alot. But genuine friends come in to give counsel and guidance so that some comfort, peace and right processions are carried out. But with the political bafoons, the canning snakes, ……., they have hijacked and are using the funeral to simplify their political fight against HH. Yes, they have taken advantage of the funeral to disgrace HH, vigorously, with their propaganda IDs. But how much they will do, that the they will not convince the knowledgeable citizens to believe their foolish statements. HH is a great wise and focused leader. The angels are watching, listening and understanding all what is coming from their big mouthi
A true African and initiated in Zambian norms/traditional principles and practices cannot act in the way the acting president, GIVEN lubinda is taking things during this trying moment of a special funeral. Please let us preserve our culture. Let’s not allow it to be contaminated.
This funeral has been turned into a political wrestling between the uncultured PF bafoons and the state, and the Lungu family is caught in between. A tragedy upon a tragedy.
People, let this sensitive issue come to an end. These adults are embarrassing the country. Please decide what needs to be done, the nation moves on . Their are alot of things to do. Some cases need to be disposed of timely back home.
Let the family allow state to take over and stop
This delay in burial.Already seven days passed
But still no break through.Zambians want to pay
Their last respect and would be happy to do it
In their country.
Politics aside. Mukafilwa ukuba no mutende when back in your own country once you decide to have a grave of your greatest family member not built in your own country.
What will you tell family future generation.
You have to think twice of that idea. Ask us who are in Diaspora.
Lungu being President for Zambia was a great achievement for the family. Honor his presidency. You are who you are because of his sacrifice for you guyz.
If they choose to bury in South Africa, that’s their business. Burials in South Africa are expensive. It follows they’re not short of money. Even the insistence that the body is transported privately back to Zambia speaks to the no-money problem.
If the likes of Makebi Zulu, the then lawyer of late former president of Zambia, Lungu now a close family member and spokesperson together with his daughter Tasila and her step mothet Esther Nyawali Tembo lungu decide to burry in South Africa well and good. They can bury him at a very good but expensive imanda ( grave there) where the elite in South Africa are burried though Makebi the Lungu lawyer even in death he is still giving legal concil to Lungu though this time, him Lungu can’t see him/ them or talk to him/them. During the Church service in Siuth Africa for Lungu, Makebi Zulu said that the very smelling kasaka kandalama rich late Lungu struggled to pay for his medical bills but will now manage to pay for his expensive burrial site in SA. Not only this, but managing to pay for accommodation, meals and logistics in SA. Very crazy indeed.
But it will be good to respect the wishes and family decision to o bury him in a foreign land who knows may be he was not originally from Zambia, just thinking because of the drama – they know and want him burried outside Zambia where even his supporters, the violent PF thugs will travel and be travelling in numbers and will continue travelling to see where their former PF leader will be burried. They used to burn money- Zambian kwacha’s mumbabulaz because they had too much of millions of kwachaz and dollars with them, it will be easy now to use the remaining bulk monies in their custudy to be travellingto South Africa, visiting his final resting place.
Chiluba died in the close otherwise presence of Emmanueli who was later given an Ambassodor position to Malaysia he protested to Lungu because he knew the big job he did though Lungu also didn’t want him near him, he was then sent to South Africa and later to Ethiopia at AU but he was eventually back in the Country before the 2021 elections and after the loss in 2021 he was unable to go back. He was one of the pf presidential hopefuls who even paid the K200,000.00 for PF presidency but later Lungu surfaced evedy one ws dumped and their ma K200,000.00 gone. Emmanueli was this time very close to Lungu, i remember seeing him at the high court telling the POLICE at ba boss balefwaya ukwenda, ka POKOLA naena amukanina ati what’s your problem yiwe Mwambaai. These vultures, Emmanueli, Nakachinda, Makebi, Lubinda (infact Zayelo is just being used very soon he will be termed and dumped, the problem with ZAYELO he forgets easily even when he was beated, slapped by his notorious PF cadres (thugs) the case even went to court now with the death of Lungu, respect for him will diminish and these KAMUGODI thugs are still with them, where to land will be very shameful and disastrous after they start insulting him and for him, it will be very easy – abena Ngwiraa ) Seon Tembo, the poisonous tribalist Mmembe and Kazuman Chrisstopher naka ketty and others.
These are very dangerous individuals to be very close with or to.
But since even the Lungu funeral is now even dying off because of what majority Zambians have been subjected to, (let alone the mushanina nsala hungry cadres,) they have started going on with their daily lives, because of the way this funeral has been subjected too. Very sad indeed. Lungu was a very sarcastic leader and at the same time very dangerous person, we used to listern to his sentiments, the gassing happened during his reign in government, the brutal and caderism happened under his government. The highly calculated corruption, deaths of the Mapenzi, Nsama Nsama, Joseph Kaunda, Lawrence Banda, to name but a few. Lawrence Banda who was killed by his own barber man and hid him in state house by then, regionalism, sidelined some provinces in tems of development and government appointments. This was Lungu at it. These were his very bad plans and side of him but at the same time, he helped many of his people and did other good things for the country, this again was another good side of him. This is how he will be reflecting in the Country in the minds of different citizens, no doubt about it. So with this crazy confusion being created by these vultures certainly the bad side and picture of him will be coming and people will start making comparisons and marry certain behaviours with his character and will definitely conclude. Already this is what is happening. Because even that heaviness that we feel when a high profile citizen dies, like at a time it was head, of his fineral – passing on, is slowly being going down otherwise being forgotten slowly and the value diminishing. So let him be burried where there as they wish, the same way the funeral is not at his residence but for the government and respected individuals and foreigner dignitaries at the government lodge ( where even the funeral for the late former president Fredrick Chiluba washeld ) while for the thugs and PF violent family at their party secretariat so will it be even the grave. At Presidential burial site it will be, like some kind of a museum ( it will be empty for years but it will have and tell a story ) while in SA his final resting place, chapwa. Finshi fimbi futi ifyakubwatabwata, awee mukwai – Chanshi kumuntu.
I feel sorry for the Family of the late president because of the way they are being manipulated by those that are using the body of the former president to fight their own wars.
Yesterday I saw a clip where a group of shameless elderly men made a small circle to pray for Tasila Lungu, these shameless men do not know what they are doing to the surviving family by systematically isolating the first former first lady and behaving as though Tasila is the only one in the family that is gravelly affected.
To those people, I say posterity will judge you.
The thinking of burying of the late 6th President of Zambia in South Africa is un wise.President Lungu was not a South Africa national but Zambian and a former President and Commander in Chief of the Armed forces.The Military will have to carry out their last respect and can only be done on the soils of our Land Zambia.The late former Head of State must be given an hounarable send of that befits a former Head of State.This can only be done on our Land Zambia.It is truly a Zambian tradition.That can not be compromised please.Let us stand proud and free to do that with our Zambian flag on.
The resting place for our former President is getting prepared and almost ready what will happen to the prepared place if Mr Lungu’s body is taken some where else? Traditionally you can’t open a grave and leave it open like that it is not normal.Let us do the right thing.This mob psychology that is holding us is disrespectful of our values and culture as well as morals.We must not allow lawlessness to prevail.To some this is a good political game.We must realize that Zambia is mourning, this is a funeral.
