My proposal to President Hakainde Hichilema

 End national mourning and only declare it on the day of burial (if body comes) or memorial (if body doesn’t come)

 State funeral proceedings and gun salute can go on with or without the body

Suppose he had died in a bomb, plane crash or eaten by an animal where remains become unobtainable, then the monument at Embassy Park would be a burial site (if body comes) or memorial site (if body doesn’t come) so that we move on.

 If the family doesn’t repatriate the body back to Zambia, we leave them to do whatever they want with it that’s all路

=========

I agree 

This has become exhausting. The government has only two options

Either…

 Take draconian measures and institute the powers it has to commandeer the entire process, with or without the Lungu family consent

Or

 Let them do as they please.

We wait once again 

  1. The family are playing games with the body of dead man.
    No wonder us a foreigners see African as backward and primative.

  2. Point made. I agree. There are lives to take care of in the nation. The nation cannot be bogged down by the whims and wishes of one family.

  3. Tbis is an evil family there is sinister motive behind the scenes to make me believe it only leans to the occult and ill will for Zambia and its people! On cultural norms as a “Zambian” ECL was a subject of a chiefdom that can preside where family fails to adhere to the appropriate rules! As a national leader seorn to the Constitution of the land ECL was government issue and the administrat kook n can choose to be high handed and bury him then let family dig him up before being arrested!

  4. Tasila lungu will now need a work permit and visa to enter Zambian soil as they have clearly demonstrated that they are foreigners. Immigration officers please investigate more on this issue instead of the government forcing them to bury when in actual fact lungu was a foreigner. After they have buried their beloved father I urge the authorities not to allow them to enter Zambia without valid permits. All these happening is not a surprise, the family knows their decent its not funny, how come the so called chiefs are quiet . It’s because no chiefs neither village head men know them or else they would have intervened

  5. The grave must not remain open for long if it is not getting occupied by the owner.Traditionally it is not advisable.
