This is insane! As this is the third president that Zambia has lost (two of them while in office), all within a span of 6 years. Mwanawasa in 2008, Chiluba in 2011 and now Sata in 2014, and all due to health complications, while the very first president of Zambia Kenneth Kaunda is still alive at 90.

Funny website...


Do you mean this statement? "... as the president expired at 2100 hours ..."


@maka, that is the polite way of saying someone has died. Similar to Kiswahili when we say 'amefariki' not 'amekufa'!!

Zambia has lost two sitting presidents and on ex president since 2008.Neighboring Malawi has lost one during that period.

If Obama, born and bred in the US, can be president, why not VP Dr Guy Scott in Zambia and he was born and raised in Zambia? Seems Africans are very racist.
