Is it that a Bemba and/or the two Chipatas reported in the news below by Zambiareports are too dull to learn Tonga language or what? Come on Bembas and Njanyas not all of u are of this crass misrepresentation of reality in Zambia and you who are sane need to condemn this article and its write in the strongest possible terms with the contempt it deserves. This You know why Tongas are said to be tribalists? Because you will find that you can be 5 friends. You are walking, 2 are Tongas. 2 are from Chipata. And 1 is a Bemba. All of you can know Nyanja or Bemba. But you will find the 2 Tongas speaking Tonga. Instead of using the language that they all understand. Is that not being selfish? I have experienced it and I have seen it happening with almost all Tongas. A Tonga party president dies, replaced by a fellow Tonga. Other parties, first it was Bemba, second it was Lenje and third of a Ngoni. -- zambiareports/2014/11/10/letter-tribalism-dominating-zambian-politics/ My comment is: I have not heard of any sick message than this in my whole entire life on tribalism issues? Firstly, this who article projects or propagates a lie. Secondly, y shouldnt the 2 from Chipata and 1 Bemba fail to learn Tonga Language and then use it to converse with the other three? Y should it be the 2 Tonga people in the example to talk in Nyanja or Bemba? As long as Zambia continues having sick in the mind people like Peter M who wrote the above, we will have problems in working as a united country. If you go to any town in Southern Province, even as far as Livingstone, you will find Tonga people struggling to speak broken Bemba Language and cool Nyanja language just to accommodate characters, especially Kaponyas who speak Bemba Language, who claim they cant speak or understand Tonga because they sau it is too difficult. I was once in a bus from Livingstone to Mazabuka in which a Bemba man joined us at Pemba or Chisekese and sat next to me. I greeted the man in Tonga and he was quick to say I dont understand. And then I greeted him in english and we continued to discuss. He was going to Monze. he grew up in Monze where his father had been a police office for about 7 years and yet he couldnt respond to a simple greeting Kamwaamba? [How are you?] Imagine 7 yrs in Monze of Southern Province and a Bemba man who went to school/s there can not/never reply Kabotu [Fine] or Kabotu, kamwaammba or mwapona buti? [Fine and how are u? I was really surprised and today some shamefless characters comes with nonsense written above by zambiareports though i thank them for publishing it to the whole world.
