MORNING DEVOTION SUNDAY

“Let my teaching fall on you like rain; let my speech settle like dew. Let my words fall like rain on tender grass, like gentle showers on young plants,” Deuteronomy 32:2 .

WHEN dew comes, it permeates everything and there's nothing it doesn't touch.

Wouldn't it be neat if we allow God's words to do the same in our lives? If we allowed it to permeate all areas of our lives, where would you see God working in you? Maybe it's facing your fear of failure, reconnecting with your estranged brother, or treating your girlfriend with respect.

In any case, invite God to shower you with His teachings and be courageous enough to take them to heart and make a change.

Happy Sunday!

Ritualistic Chongwe man pleads not guilty to attempted murder of wife

A RITUALISTIC and insecure Chongwe man, David Tembo who maimed his wife on suspicion of infidelity and for refusing to accompany him to the grave for rituals has appeared before the Lusaka High Court facing charges of attempted murder among other charges.

Tembo is charged with attempted murder, two counts of unlawful wounding, and aggravated assault with intent to steal.

It is alleged in the first count that the accused on November 19, 2022 attempted to murder his wife Olipa Nyirenda.

In the second and third counts Tembo is on the same date alleged to have unlawfully wounded Emeldah Ngulube and Rebecca Ngulube

In the fourth count it is alleged that Tembo on November 19, 2022 with intent to steal and armed with a machete assualted David Shilimani.

It was reported that the 35-year old Tembo woke up from his sleep on the material day with a get-rich scheme, superseding Judas Iscariot’s greed for money when he traded the Jesus Christ for 30 pieces of silver.

Tembo tried to romantically lure his wife, Olipa into performing a money-making ritual at one of the graves in Chongwe.

However, Tembo did not succeed at persuading his wife Olipa as she wanted nothing to do with blood money.

Olipa took to her heels and went to her aunty’s home in Lusoke village, in chieftainess Nkomeshya's area, to seek haven.

Around 21:00 hours Tembo who was charged like a wounded Buffalo went in search of his missing rib at his in-laws' premises.

The angry Tembo who was suspecting his wife of having extra-marital affairs assumed the role of a chief butcher and attempted to slice his wife into pieces but ended up wounding her on both hands with a machete.

The violence tricked down to the family members as Tembo equally hacked Rabecca who sustained a deep cut on the forehead and later wounded his step daughter aged seven who sustained a deep cut on the left leg and attempted to flee the scene.

Before he could escape the crime scene, Tembo encountered a Burundian identified as David Shimilinani, 29, on his way and he continued his criminal behaviour which left Shimilinani with a deep cut on the face, after failed attempts at robbing him of his belongings.

Tembo denied the charges leveled up against him before judge Mwaka Mikalile.

Judge Mikalile adjourned the matter to November 13, 2023.

The Speaker of National Assembly in Kenya Mr. Moses Francis Masika Wetangula has outrightly suspended 10 Members of Parliament belonging to the ruling party, Kenya Kwanza.

Mr. Wetangula delivered his ruling today following a complaint by the opposition Azimio La Umoja MPs against the 10 MPs belonging to the ruling Kenya Kwanza.

The Kenyan Speaker censured the 10 suspended Kenya Kwanza MPs that Parliament is not a place to champion hate speech, falsehood and divisions as well as tribalism.

This comes after some Kenya Kwanza MPs said former President Uhuru Kenyatta is a thief who should be tried in the courts for stealing from people of Kenya. And another MP belonging to the ruling party said she is not worried by what appears to be tribal appointments because Uhuru Kenyatta was also appointing people from his village. Meanwhile, another Kenya Kwanza MP called the leader of the opposition Raila Odinga a ruthless thug who should be allowed to rule Kenya.

But Speaker Mr. Wetangula noted in his ruling as he suspended MPs from the ruling party that he will not entertain MPs calling out leaders of the opposition and accusing them of things they can't defend themselves from Parliament.

The Kenyan Speaker also said it was unacceptable to call former president Uhuru Kenyatta a thief when he has not been convicted by any court.

"I known am making this decision against MPs of a party that sponsored me to be Speaker but, my job here is not partisan. I am here to be impartial and discharge the mandate fairly and equitably. So learn lessons here. I serve the people as per Constitution and those aggrieved against this one week suspension can take necessary steps to appeal against this. I believe am serving this country to the best of my abilities and in line with the Constitution"

PASTOR ATTEMPTS SU!C!DE WHILE IN CHURCH

By Nonhlanhla Phuti

A Pastor of Pentecost Assemblies of God Church in Luanshya district on the Copperbelt Province has attempted to commit su!c!de by taking poisonous substance while at church.

Copperbelt Province Police Commanding Officer Peacewell Mweemba says the incident occurred yesterday, Sunday November 5th 2023 at around 09:00 hours at Pentecost Assemblies of God Church in Luanshya.

He says facts of the matter are that on Saturday at around 22:00 hours Pastor Anthony Mambeu of Kamirenda area informed his wife that he wanted to resign as a Pastor and later left home giving instructions that the gate be locked as he will not be returning home.

Mr. Mweemba explains that on Sunday, Mambeu’s wife tried calling him but his phone went unanswered until at around 08:00 hours when the victim called back his wife informing her that he was at Church.

He says it was at this point that the pastor’s wife called Mr. George Lungu of the same Church to take the keys to her husband but that upon his arrival, found the Church already open.

Mr. Mweemba says when Mr. Lungu entered the Church, he found the Pastor lying unconscious at the pulpit with foam coming out from his mouth while a polyethene rope was also found at the scene, a bottle of mineral water, a bottle of the poisonous substance and medication for his ulcers.

Mr Mweemba says a su!c!de note was also found in which the Pastor thanked some people and apologized to the Church for dying in such a manner and further stated in the note that his wife had been mistreating him for 25 years.

The Copperbelt Police Chief says Pastor Mambeu was rushed to Thompson District Hospital for medical attention where he is currently admitted, in an unstable condition.

Lusaka woman loses marriage for blocking sidechick on hubby's phone

A WOMAN of Lusaka West is the on the verge of losing her 14-year old marriage for simply getting her husband's phone and blocking his beloved sidechick.

Despite having five children together, Lameck Chirwa, a 39-year old bricklayer says he wants nothing more to do with Dina Namukwanya aged 29, especially that her insulting abilities surpass even those of Nkana Football Club supporters.

Chirwa told the Matero Local Court that him and his wife, have, for some time been at loggerheads and their marriage is more acrimonious than that of the two PF factions of Edgar Lungu and Miles Sampa.

He said while he withstood all the insults she had been showering on him and his mother, he would not forgive her for getting his phone and blocking his girlfriend.

Chirwa complained that his wife had on several occasions told him that he was not the father of the her children because he had malfunctioning manhood.

Further, Chirwa narrated that his wife was also in the habit of going to his mother’s house to insult her and and even went on to advise him to sleep with his mother if at all he was desperate for children.

All this, and since 2007, Chirwa tolerated. It was until his wife, touched his source of happiness that he lost it all and decided to divorce her. She had blocked his potential second wife on his phone.

After finding out, he rushed to report her to her Aunt for her unforgivable act, and before the two could even be sat down or reconciled, he had already summoned her for divorce in the Matero local court.

However, Namukwanya said she loved her husband and did not want the court to divorce them adding that she only blocked his girlfriend because he spent most his time with her.

Namukwanya said her husband sepnt most of his time at his girlfriend’s place but only time he appeared back home recently when he had come to present her the divorce summon.

Namukwanya also admitted to insulting Chirwa and his mother but blamed it on her short temper.

“Yes I insult him and his mother, but that’s only because I am short tempered and I get frustrated at the fact that my husband goes to his girlfriend in presence of work for months, leaving the children and myself hungry, he even went ahead to sell our plot without my knowledge. Just now, he just came back after disappearing for two months. He was talking to a woman on phone at night I got hurt, and I blocked the ladies number,” said Namukwanya.

Testifying in the matter, Namukwanya's aunt said the couple was mostly happy but things only change whenever Chirwa has a girlfriend which causes her niece to insult.

“Otherwise they are good children, just now my son-in-law only came to report to me that she had blocked his girlfriend on his phone. Before I could even seat them fpen to discuss, he left in anger and the next day, I heard he sued for divorce something I think should not happen,” she said.

Magistrate Harriet Mulenga adjourned the matter to November 10, 2023, for submission, judgment and possible reconciliation.

[Lighthouse Foundation Bemoans Continuous Poisoning of Water and Environmental Damage at Mining Plants on the Copperbelt]

[Copperbelt, Zambia] - The Lighthouse Foundation founder, Emily Nalwamba , has expressed her deep concern over the continuous poisoning of water and environmental damage at some mining plants located on Copperbelt, Zambia. The absence of government intervention has resulted in an increasing number of environmental catastrophes that threaten the livelihoods of many communities in the region.

Recently, the Zambia Land Alliance made a distressing discovery on Friday of dead fish, contaminated water, and dying vegetation as a result of mining activity. This is the fourth time this year alone that this occurrence has been reported. Such environmental damage has the potential to deeply impact the health and well-being of the people who depend upon these resources, as well as the long-term viability of the land and the ecological systems that rely on them.
Nalwamba contends that regulatory bodies like the Zambia Environmental Management Agency-ZEMA and the Water Resources Management Authority-WARMA have been ineffective in preventing the unlawful release of harmful compounds into rivers and the environment. "The government must take necessary actions against mining companies that are endangering aquatic life and the livelihoods of those who depend on these resources," she said.

The Lighthouse Foundation is committed to ensuring that such environmental destruction is stopped and the affected communities have access to sustainable and healthy living conditions. The Foundation calls on all governmental regulatory bodies to take appropriate and immediate actions to protect the environment and to enforce all the laws and regulations that govern mining operations in Zambia.

Nigerian man files for divorce two days after wedding.

The man is said to have called it quit over his wife's rude behaviour towards his mother.

According to reports, the wife got into a physical fight with her mother-in-law at their wedding reception.

It happened that a couple from the groom's mother's side attended the occasion at a time food had finished.

A portion of food the bride left for her parents was the only available option.

So the mother-in-law had approached her daughter-in-law and whispered to her that she'll like to take some of the food to give the couple who came from a far distance.

The new bride vehemently refused, saying the food was meant for only her parents.

Mother-in-law who looked frustrated already, went ahead to scoop some food herself but the bride took it from her and poured it back into the cooler.

Angrily, the mother-in-law slapped her son's wife and she slapped the mother inlaw back.

The husband learnt of what happened, decided to be patient for the wedding reception to be over. After two days,he filed for a divorce.

Woman nabbed for stabbing hubby where it ‘hurts most’

POLICE in Kitwe have arrested a 20-year-old woman for allegedly stabbing her husband on his manhood while he was asleep. Copperbelt police commanding officer Peacewell Mweemba said Chola, 20, of an unmarked plot in Mindolo North, stabbed her husband, Mushimbwe, 24, around midnight last Friday. Mr Mweemba said Mr Mushimbwe sustained a deep cut on his manhood and was rushed to Kitwe Teaching Hospital, where the wound was sutured with 18 stitches.
According to the report before the police, Mr Mushimbwe knocked off from Apex Nightclub on Thursday and gave his wife some money to go and buy food.
However, when the complainant noticed that his wife had taken long, he followed her to the market and noticed from a distance that she was standing with a man.
When Chola noticed her husband’s presence, she walked towards him while the man she was allegedly with disappeared.
“Together, the couple went home and the husband kept quiet since his wife disputed knowing the man she was allegedly with at the market,” Mr Mweemba said.
But around midnight while the couple was asleep, the wife started shouting at her husband, and the next thing was an assault on his manhood with a sharp instrument which led to blood oozing out.
Mr Mushimbwe managed to go to his mother’s home and thereafter his brother-in-law rushed him to the police, where
the matter was reported and a medical report issued for him to be taken to the hospital.
Police opened a docket of unlawful wounding and arrested the suspect....https://enews.daily-mail.co.zm/welcome/home

Prayer for Comfort
The LORD is my shepherd. I lack nothing. He lets me rest in grassy meadows; he leads me to restful waters; he keeps me alive. He guides me in proper paths for the sake of his good name. Even when I walk through the darkest valley, I fear no danger because you are with me. Your rod and your staff — they protect me. You set a table for me right in front of my enemies. You bathe my head in oil; my cup is so full it spills over! Yes, goodness and faithful love will pursue me all the days of my life, and I will live in the LORD’s house as long as I live. — Psalms 23: 1-6

Understanding The Mind Of A Man

Ladies allow me to tell you the real mind of a man. Men are different from women, they get attracted to physical beauty. To them it is what they see that melts their heart.

Don't focus so much on your inner beauty neglecting the outward beauty. Your outward beauty catches attention while your inner beauty keeps the person on hook.

It is the outward beauty that we always see and if you noticed some men who cheat on their married wife, the woman will be attractive and appealing. Don't wait all day to bath in the evening. Keep up your hygiene.

Remember, Jacob was attracted to Rachel by her outward beauty. Never get tired of looking good. Who has ever slept with inner beauty? Learn to balance and maintain both your inner beauty and outward beauty in good shape.

To your continuous growth and wellness.

UPPZ President Charles Chanda CALLS FOR REBRANDING OF ZAMBIA NATIONAL SERVICE AND REMOVAL OF GRADE 12 CERTIFICATE CLAUSE FOR YOUNG PEOPLE

November 4, 2023 - KITWE, Zambia: United Prosperous And Peaceful Zambia (UPPZ) Leader, Charles Chanda, is calling for the rebranding of the Zambia National Service and the removal of the Grade 12 certificate clause when young people are applying. Chanda is urging the UPND government to think in lines of empowering youths under skills development through ZNS training, which will make these youths self-reliant and sustainable.

Chanda believes that the Zambia National Service can play a significant role in empowering young people with the necessary skills and knowledge to thrive in today's economy. By removing the Grade 12 certificate clause, we open doors for young people who have not had the opportunity to complete their education but have the aptitude and desire to learn valuable skills that can make them productive members of society.

"Times have changed. We must not continue to hold young people back simply because they do not have a Grade 12 certificate. We must provide an opportunity for them to learn the skills they need to be successful," Chanda stated.

The rebranding of the Zambia National Service would help to shed the negative images associated with the organization and create a more positive perception of the services provided. Furthermore, the training provided can be refocused to better meet the current needs of the economy, providing young people with skills such as ICT, agriculture, and renewable energy.

"By investing in our young people, we can make them self-sufficient, independent, and empower them to take charge of their lives," Chanda added.

By creating a more positive perception of the Zambia National Service and providing opportunities for young people to learn valuable skills, the government can help young people to become more self-reliant and sustainable, leading to a brighter future for all Zambians. The government must realize that this investment in our youth will have a long-term positive impact upon our country.

Charles Chanda calls on the government to take a proactive and inclusive approach to skills development and the youth, investing in the future of our country. Now is the time to remove the barriers preventing young people from accessing the resources they need to thrive.
