Davies Nyirongo: Sad and it's wrong for investors to humiliate indigenous people and subject them to embarrassment of such a manner, why not the person to the police and latter to court to be judged through.
Mervis Chunsu: Mmmmmh awe mwebantu, but why doing that. Does it mean we are nolonger our brother's keepers? This is inhuman and really uncalled for. Soap fye?and what happens to her reputation mu society? How are the children going to cop with the teasing and name calling from their friends.we acknowledge that she was wrong but the punishment was too sensitive. Let love lead
