Last Friday, the Pretoria High Court ordered that Lungu’s body be repatriated to Zambia for a state funeral and burial at Embassy Park.Zambia travel packages
The judgement turned the South African Court into a pool of ear perforating Nkana Stadium insults coming from Lungu’s elder sister, Bertha, who opposed the decision.
