Zambians on social media are flooding n the page of American singer Rotimi mocking him of stealing a man-made eagle which was placed on the country’s first republican president Kenneth Kaunda grave.
Last week, reports indicated that unknown people ransacked the Lake Kaunda’s graveyard and went away with the eagle and iron sheets.
No one has been arrested in connection with the robbery.
On the same week Kaunda’s grave was ransacked, the American singer was in the country performing after being booked by one of Zambia’s entertainment gurus.
After posting a picture of himself on Facebook with caption “Smooth Criminal” Zambians confirmed their suspicion on the singer accusing him of stealing the eagle.
Below are some of the comments by Zambians on Rotimi’s Facebook post.
Alex Rhema Jere said; “You stole the Eagle. I said it, this guy can’t be trusted. Ask Ghost about him.”
Jessy Mwale commented; “We are sending our very own yo maps the commando to get our eagle back taseka ichimbuya ena,ohh sorry his wedding is on the 23th he will come on the 25rd get ready.”
Çlãrã Trãçy Mwãñzã; “Was it necessary going with our eagle.”
Nfumukazi K’lovu said; “Ala you came in the name of concert kanshi it was a cover up to steal our eagle, that’s why you never posted on your feeds that you performed in Zambia. Please bring back our eagle things are becoming bad here.”
However, other Zambians expressed their dissatisfaction with how their fellow country men are embarrasing themselves on the page of the singer.
