A SIXTY-four year old grandmother who uses her free time to compose insults and distribute them amongst deserving neighbors in the sprawling compound of Chazanga in Lusaka has been ordered by the Boma Local Court to compensate one of her victims.
 
With her insulting abilities rated notches above Nkana Football Club supporters and PF cadres put together, no one in her neighborhood wants to cross paths with granny Elina Chibale.
 
Unfortunately, Chibale’s neighbor, Atteless Zulu aged 32 put herself and family in the line of fire after they reported the old woman’s prized 16-year-old grandson to the police for defiling her daughter aged nine.
 
According to reports, Chibale’s grandson and his 14-year old friend decided to misuse their urinating tools on an underaged girl.
 
But when police only arrested Chibale’s grandson leaving his accomplice, it angered the old lady, who tightened her chitenge wrapper and without anything on her feet jogged to her neighbor’s house to give them a piece of her mind.
 
With her hands cluctched to her waist, Chibale started to broadcast first grade insults on Zulu mentioning her husband’s manhood and all its functions much to shock of other neighbors and passersby alike.
 
The old lady demanded that her grandson be released from police custody immediately or she would be back with more insults.
 
Traumatized by the abuse, Zulu sued Chibale in the Lusaka Boma Local Court demanding to be compensated.
 
Appearing before Senior Local Court Magistrate George Kaoma, Chibale meekly denied being the insulting champion saying all she did was humbly ask Zulu to have her grandson released from detention.
 
“My only complaint when I went there was that my grandson is too young to be put in police custody, and that is why I questioned the reason they left his 14-year old friend free, who also participated in the act,” the old lady testified.
 
But after weighing her demeanor and the testimonies presented before court,
Magistrate Kaoma found Chibale guilty and ordered her to compensate Zulu with K1,000 to be paid in monthly installments of K250.
The court also advised Chibale to stop protecting her grandson because he could not have committed offences against the state if he was as young she believed him to be.
