Drama as coffin refuses to enter church in Zambia, forcing military intervention

A strange coffin was reported to have refused to be buried according to the Christian burial rites.

The incident reportedly happened in the Chilombo area of Kaoma District in Mangango constituency in Zambia according to the Zambia Observer.

To be frank, the report seems to be confliting. First, it said the said “coffin was reported to have refused to be buried in a traditional practice known to the Kaonde people as ‘Kikondo’.

Then adds that “drama started when the body arrived at the local New Apostolic Church for service in the morning.”

Not sure what exactly happened and we’re reproducing the rest of the report below.

The coffin is said to have refused to enter the church building upon being removed from the canter and instead led its bearers to a house and plunged it through the window breaking glass panes and lodged inside the house.

It took police to fire tear gas canisters to control the irate mob.

According to Kaoma District Commissioner, Kennedy Liale Mubanga, it took the reinforcement of soldiers who were led by the Battalion Commander from the 5ZR army barracks who went to retrieve the coffin and a forced burial was ordered by the DC in the afternoon.

The deceased is named Lilian Kanunga, female aged 47, unmarried of Kalyangu village in the same area.

This is according to a press statement made available to Radio Cheke FM News by Kaoma District Commissioner, Kennedy Liale Mubanga today.
