Chaos in the Mine Township: Inspired by True Events
Who really looted the Chimanga Changa Milling Truck? A prosperous Anglo-American Mining Corporation established township, Chamboli, has now, in December 1986, changed to a riotous hub of the Copperbelt region. Lumba has a new friend, Mwila, and they are trapped escaping paramilitary police chasing looters. In the house they hid, Hector is accused of looting the Chimanga Changa Milling truck. To everyone, the reasons for riots were more important than the looting of the mealie-meal vehicle. A few days later, in the church hall, Micky calls for the township to rise against the mining company. Outside, paramilitary police surround the churchyard, and Mwila tells Lumba, “if the police enter the parish, put your hands as if in prayer.” It was a sign to evade arrest, and at that moment, everything changed for Lumba. While the police search for the looters, Mwila draws Lumba into a plot to save Chamboli Township from the company that set it up. As Lumba courts Mwila, he comes to know her as a beautiful girl troubled by the mining company. Gradually, Lumba confronts the ebbing prosperity of the compound, the looting and the inexcusable ugly truth of the mining company. Sulphur dioxide locally called Senta.
