I was having breakfast in my hotel today when an American asked me about Zambia🇿🇲.
I explained that we have 10 provinces compared to their 50 states:
Lusaka = a mix of New York + the Washington metropolitan area (DMV). Government, finance, embassies, deal-making, networking and everyone acting “busy.”
Southern = Texas + California. Cattle, farming, big land, quiet money, business-minded people, and Victoria Falls & Lake Kariba carrying the tourism economy.
Copperbelt = Michigan + Pennsylvania. Industrial backbone. Mining towns. Old money. Union vibes. People who remember when the economy was “serious.”
North-Western = Alaska. Rich in natural resources, sparsely populated, and everyone believes the future is there.
Western = Louisiana. Strong cultural identity, flood plains, proud traditions, and its own rhythm entirely.
Eastern = Iowa + Kansas.
Agriculture, hardworking people, and quietly influential politically.
Central = Ohio.
Right in the middle of everything. Farms, transport links, mining, logistics. The “swing province” energy.
Northern = Washington.
Rain, greenery, lakes, waterfalls and underrated natural beauty.
Muchinga = Colorado.
Mountains, scenery, adventure, wilderness and people forgetting how beautiful it actually is.
Luapula = Minnesota + a little Florida fishing-town energy. Water everywhere. Fish economy. Relaxed pace of life. Hidden tourism potential.
Zambia is basically America compressed into 10 provinces… just with better weather, less stress, nshima, fewer lights and highways. 🇿🇲
I saw her story yesterday guys do we have anyone in Lusaka who can follow-up this if she was doing it out of love ❤️ we really need to help her out

ZIMBABWE 🇿🇼:The Mujuru family is mourning six relatives — Lillian Maranda Mujuru (40) and her five children — killed in a head-on collision along the Harare-Masvingo Road.
Condolences to the father Ronald Mujuru 🕊️
Our brother, Savious Nyaguwa (28), has been in serious pain for the past 9 months. He has been forced to lie on his stomach the whole time because of his injuries. He is currently admitted at Mtendere Mission Hospital in Zambia, waiting for the help he urgently needs.
On 19 June 2025, Savious was a passenger in a truck travelling from Chikuti along the Harare–Chirundu Road. About 10 km before Makuti, the truck was involved in a terrible accident. The driver died on the spot, and another passenger was badly injured.
Savious was trapped in the truck for almost an hour. During that time, hot oil from the truck kept burning him. He suffered severe burns on his back, buttocks, and legs. He also has a fractured hip.
He now needs a hip replacement surgery that costs about US$4,000 (around K75,000). This operation could give him a second chance at life.
So far, with help from Saint TV, some money has been raised. But there is still US$2,432 needed to reach the target.

Today has was cleaning my ka room,I found these sources of my school fees from S1 to S6 😭.
It was in 2016 after the death of dad 😭,My mum was suggesting that I should join a garage since she had no money to push my education which I refused and ..
I’m completely stranded at Moscow airport… alone, helpless, and running out of hope.
No one from @makemytripcare or @etihad is answering my desperate messages.
Russia doesn’t accept Visa or Mastercard anymore.
I have ZERO cash left. Not even for food or water.
The Etihad ground staff is avoiding me more than my ex ever did — literally turning their faces away and telling me “just call customer care”… which has been busy for hours. I’m standing here like a beggar in my own nightmare.
I don’t know how I’m going to get home. I’m scared. I feel abandoned by the very companies I trusted with my journey. My family is waiting and I can’t even tell them I’m safe.
Please… if anyone from Etihad, MakeMyTrip, or even the Indian embassy sees this — HELP ME.
And if you’re reading this, just one RT could save me. I’m begging.

Tracking Lake Mweru's shore line from Chiengi to Nchelenge reveals its scenic beauty albeit the bad road made the journey torturous. Lake Mweru is the gateway to the Congo River. Most of Zambia's northern rivers all drain into Lake Mweru via the Luapula and Kalungwishi rivers.
