One man has died and another is critically ill after they were stung by bees at a burial site in Chishiko village in Chongwe District.
ZNBC’s Effie Mphande reports that Headman Chishiko has been rushed to Levy Mwanawasa Hospital for Intensive care services.
Chongwe District Hospital Medical Officer In-charge Dr. Job Mwanza confirmed the incident to ZNBC news in an interview on Monday.
Dr. Mwanza says two victims are admitted to Chongwe District Hospital while six have been treated and discharged.
He has explained that one of the victims had bees inside her ears.
And speaking from her hospital bed Ellen Phiri says they were asked to lie down after bees came but were stung the second time they attempted to bury their loved one.
The mourners fled the graveyard abandoning the coffin.
Are the two photos above from the burial site scene or mere depiction! Pliz caption the photos lest we assume the deadman is the one surrounded by bees.
Very sad development. I hope this was just a natural cause. Some of these villagers are very skilful in extraordinary activities if instructions during burial are not strikly followed. Edgar Lungu can hire them to chase some of UPND and Rainbow party coward MPs who have failed him in the Panga Family or else we will use on him and PF if again he attempts to steal elections from HH and UPND.
Pliz zambian we should not politise this,whn a person dies,who knows,don’t talk like your president who laughed the pipo who died on raod accident that they are died living him thinking that they were all tongas and lozis who are his enermies,they way he thinks,if that accident happened in eastern or copperbelt,he was not going utter such comment.so pliz lets fill it us the are our relatives.
The leader of a known opposition party has started sacrificing people so that he can win elections.
