"UPND Media 'Guru' Busted in Grand Scam – Former TV Man Turns Receipts into Magic Beans!"

Lusaka – In a plot twist straight out of a low-budget soap opera, a self-proclaimed media genius from the UPND media team, Kelvin Chifokolo, has finally been caught in the act—not creating content this time, but allegedly creating fake receipts!
The police in Lusaka have arrested the former Prime TV employee-turned-political media “strategist” for Theft, Impersonation, and Tampering with Official Documents. Yes, folks, this media man reportedly swapped microphones for mischief!
Sources say Chifokolo allegedly hoodwinked a God-fearing church out of a whopping K116,000, claiming it was for adverts on Prime TV. But alas, he only delivered K60,000 to Prime TV’s marketing manager, Charity Banda—the rest must have been raptured.
Even Banda was dragged into the interrogation room, shocked to learn there was a whole other K56,000 floating somewhere in the spirit realm.
And if that wasn’t enough, Chifokolo is said to have pulled a classic trick: altering old Prime TV receipts, changing dates like it was Photoshop practice day, and using them to convince the church that everything was “paid in full.” Hallelujah… for fraud?
Police Assistant Public Relations Officer, Godfrey Chilabi, has confirmed the arrest, stating the media man is now in custody, awaiting his red carpet moment in court.
From Prime TV to prime suspect—Kelvin Chifokolo’s fall from grace is not just a headline. It’s a lesson: not all media men wear press tags—some carry forged receipts.
