By: Evelyn Ngoma

A shocking murder case has been reported in Lusaka's Chelstone Extension, leaving residents stunned. The incident came to light on January 14, 2025, when Emmanuel Kalaba, 55, filed a report at Garden Police Post.

According to Police Public Relations Officer Rae Hamoonga, Kalaba reported that his brother, George Kalaba, had been allegedly held captive by his wife, Sylvia Kalaba, 51. Sylvia had refused to allow family members to visit George, sparking Kalaba's concerns.

When Kalaba visited the residence, he found it locked with Sylvia and her children inside. A tenant revealed that George had not been seen for two years, and Sylvia had prevented anyone from visiting him.

Police officers rushed to the scene and made a gruesome discovery: George's skeletal remains were found on a bed, indicating he had been dead for a significant period.

Sylvia Kalaba and her children - Natasha, 19, Sandra, 22, Wendi, 27, and a 15-year-old juvenile - were apprehended and are in custody to assist with investigations.

The remains have been taken to the University Teaching Hospital Mortuary for a postmortem to determine the cause of death. Police have opened a docket and are investigating the circumstances surrounding George's death.

The community is reeling from the shocking discovery, with many calling for justice to be served.

Pope Francis has been promoting inclusivity towards LGBTQ+ people since 2013, despite conservative cardinals' disdain. Soon after becoming pope, he said in response to a question about gay priests, “Who am I to judge?”

By: Evelyn Ngoma

The National Association for Marketeers, Disabled Traders, and Vendors of Zambia is appealing to the Zambia Revenue Authority (ZRA) to waive credit for marketeers who have registered with the Patents and Companies Registration Agency (PACRA).

In an interview with HYPE FM News, the association's Vice President, Aston Sakala, explained that the appeal is due to the challenging business environment caused by load shedding and climate change effects.

Mr. Sakala stated that most marketeers have not made enough money to pay their credits because business has been difficult, and therefore, urged the ZRA to consider waiving credit for these registered marketeers to provide them with much-needed relief and support during these tough economic times.

By Evelyn Ngoma

Enonomist Kelvin Chisanga has called on The Bank of Zambia (BOZ) to take swift action to address the issue of soiled and torn banknotes in circulation. The current state of lower-denomination notes, particularly the K20, K10, K5, and K2 bills.

In an interview with HYPE FM news Mr Chisanga said It's concerning to see the poor quality of money notes in circulation, and there's a pressing need to replace them therefore The systems of money supply and circulation need to work in tandem with regulatory frameworks to ensure better money quality.

He said that Zambia hasn't printed new banknotes in over two and a half years, which might contribute to challenges in money supply and monetary policy effectiveness and The scarcity of small notes is affecting businesses, including supermarkets and chain stores, where these notes are crucial for facilitating transactions.

Mr Chisanga added that the BOZ should prioritize replacing soiled and torn banknotes, especially smaller denominations, to improve the quality of money transactions and maintain public confidence in the national currency.
