By A Correspondent| ZimEye on Monday investigates reports of truck drivers being injected with an unknown substance on Monday.

The reports submitted on the afternoon of the 6th April 2020 had two videos of men complaining mainly in the Shona that they do not want to be injected.

While it could not be immediately ascertained when the incidents happened, a source told ZimEye their sibling were witnesses of a similar incident which happened on Monday afternoon. They alleged that the incidents are happening at Kazungula border.

One of the videos begins with the following narration: this is how it is here at the University of Zambia. This crowd you are seeing here all of them are truck drivers, we were at Kazungula border. We were kept there for some days. Some of us entered on the 30th of March, others entered earlier than us.

“After leaving Kazungula, we were told to come down here to Lusaka because some of the drivers their papers are still with the customs officials and the police so they were told to come  down here to Lusaka to get their papers but upon coming here we were told to leave our trucks, park our trucks and come here to the University of Zambia.

“We came here to the University of Zambia yesterday last night. We were told to sleep and this morning there is nothing that has happened we are just waiting for the officials to come and address us…

“I think there is one official here who is addressing; I want to see exactly what is going on here but we are being guarded like we are criminals you can see there is a lot of police.

“To our surprise it is only one border which is being targeted because our friends who are using Chirundu they are moving freely. It is only those using Kazungula and Vic Falls coming from South Africa who are the ones brought here to Lusaka. Actually the main reason for bringing us here we don’t know.

“We are yet to find out what’s the reason for bringing us here.”

In another video which is not clear where it was shot there are men dressed as doctors or nurses seen surrounding a group of drivers and a woman screaming, “aaaah, deport to our country it is better to deport us. ”

Soon after that another woman then screams in the Shona language saying “these are the chemicals that are killing people. These chemicals will cause reactions in people’s bodies.”

Efforts to get a comment from the Zambian police at the time of writing were fruitless. ZimEye was in the process of making several telephone calls to to different government offices.
