UNDERSTANDING THE BEMBA-NGONI CHIMBUYA
By Gumbi Kaziguda Jele
A photo of King Gabriel Chinombo Msenga, the King behind the genesis of the so called Chimbuya between Ngonis and Bembas. He was the 34th Chitimukulu. His birth united two warring African Nations.

He was the son of Princess Chandamukulu Chimba-bantu Chilobelobe. Princess Chandamukulu was the daughter of the Bemba leader, Mukukamfumu Kasonde, who was killed in combat by the Ngonis. After killing him, the Ngonis captured his daughter who was by then still a teenager. ChandaMukulu ended up being part of the Ngoni nation after her capture, as they went with her when they left Bemba territory.

Chitimukulu Musenga was born in 1888 in Ngoniland, in the Msekera area, but he returned to bembaland after the defeat of the Mphezeni Ngonis, he returned together with his mother. His mother died in 1937. His mother after her capture had her ears cut in between that one could even put a finger inside. This is an ancient nguni tradition called iziqhaza.

King Msenga spent a great deal of time on the Mwamba throne, he was coronated in 1926 and reigned upto 1965. In 1944, his claim to the Chitimukulu throne was shot down by the Bemba royal council due to his paternal links to the Ngonis.

But more than two decades later, he managed to ascend in 1967 even if by then he was in the evenings of his life. He only reigned for two years and died in 1969. He reign was not supported much by the Bembas who knew his history.

General Ozzy musical journey....

Zambia's music legend General Ozzy rose to prominence in 2002 with his hit "Backstabber."

He later joined the renowned Sling Beats Music camp in 2003, marking his debut album "The General," which included the chart-topper "Osalila." While collaborating extensively with Chali Bravo and the Sling Beats production team from then until 2010, he also co-founded Brotherhood Music alongside his exceptionally talented brother, Roberto.

Throughout his illustrious career, Ozzy captivated fans with tracks such as "Take My Heart," "Nandi," "Kobili," "Chimutengo," and "Potential," among numerous other unforgettable hits.

As he advanced, Ozzy's journey transcended all expectations. He stands as one of the select few artists who warrant boasting rights, consistently proving himself as one of the finest. Undoubtedly, he has weathered every facet of the industry and emerged triumphant.

Let us extend a resounding round of applause to The General as he gracefully retires, celebrating a remarkable two-decade journey. This moment prompts us to reflect on his extraordinary legacy as the 'FIVE STAR GENERAL.'

While his absence on the Zambian stage will be felt by all his devoted fans, they can forever cherish his magnificent discography and relive his greatness, as his artistic imprint is eternal.

On behalf of Sling Beats, words cannot adequately express our sentiments beyond this... But we can say

General Ozzy

I RESIGNED NOT FIRED-MWIZU

Mwizukanji wrote;

Greetings.

In response to the ongoing speculations.

It was a pleasure to work with Jelumu Zambia for almost 3 years as brand ambassador and later as head of corporate sales and marketing.

We however parted ways amicably in March 2023 when i tendered my resignation.

I must assume the purpose of the announcement today was to help valued clients as well as would be clients to know that inquiries and any Jelumu related issues were to be directed to the appropriate offices.

Growth comes with new opportunities that I have chosen to embrace and pursue.

God has brought us thus far and I believe the future is bright for all of us.

Best Regards.

REHABILITATION OF FEEDER ROADS COMMENCES IN LUMEZI, EASTERN PROVINCE.

Lumezi Town Council has commenced the rehabilitation of feeder roads that have been in a deplorable state in the District.

This follows the procuring of a motor grader at a total cost of K2, O3O, and 000=00 using Constituency Development Funds-CDF.

Council Chairperson, Oliver Mwale, says the road works have been necessitated by the enhanced allocation of CDF from K1.6 million to K28.3 million.

Mr. Mwale observed that rehabilitation of feeder roads would ease movements of farming inputs and crops for farmers.

He noted that the works would also reduce travelling time to access social services by the people in the plateau and valley areas of the District.

The Zambia News and Information Services-ZANIS-reports that the Council Chairperson was speaking when he flagged –off rehabilitation works on the 1.7 Kilometer stretch from Lundazi-Chipata road to Nkhanyu Primary School in Diwa ward.

Mr Mwale indicated that due to the vastness of the district, the local authority should execute the works in phases, adding that roads in the plateau would be worked during phase one while valley roads would be rehabilitated in phase two.

Mr Mwale mentioned that other shortlisted roads in phase one are the rehabilitation of the six kilometer stretch from Chipata-Lundazi road to Kapasa Community School and the 600 meter stretch from Lundazi Chipata road leading to the newly constructed Mwasemphangwe Mini-Hospital.

Meanwhile, Ringtone Phiri from Chief Mwasemphangwe`s area, expressed gratitude to the government for rolling out development in the Chiefdom.

Mr Phiri who is also headman magalasi thanked the New Dawn government for disbursing adequate resources for rehabilitation of roads through CDF.

He told Zanis in an interview that the shortlisted roads were not only used by the farming community to transport their produce but also assist people to access health and education services.

Miles Sampa deserts PF commader

Matero Constituency PF member of parliament Miles Sampa has withdrawn as a surety of troubled former Intercity Bus Terminus Commander Francis Muchemwa who is facing corruption related charges.

Muchemwa has since been remanded and will remain behind bars until he secures the trust of another surety.

Last September, the Anti-Corruption Commission arrested the once-feared commander for possession of suspicious property worth over K12 million.

He was charged with five counts of possession of property suspected to be proceeds of crime which included a house in Silverest valued at K2.5 million
and apartments valued at K4.5 million in the same area which were all acquired between the period of 2015 to 2022.

Muchemwa is also being prosecuted for pocketing worth more than K1. 4 million as his gross earnings from June 2015 to August 31, 2021 as a Security Sergeant at Zesco Limited with the state arguing that he never worked for there.
