1 | Zambia's Ex-First Lady's Facebook Page Faked for Alleged Scholarship Scam | Pejy Facebook Hosoka Amin'ny Anaran'ny Vadin'ny Filoham-pirenena Zambiana teo Aloha Nanaovana Fisolokiana Aminà Resaka Vatsim-pianarana |
2 | A person who created a fake Facebook account in the name of Zambia's former first lady Maureen Mwanawasa recently appeared in court for fraud. | Niakatra fitsarana vao haingana noho ny hosoka ilay olona nanangana kaonty Facebook hosoka amin'ny anaran'ny vadin'ny filoham-pirenena Zambiana teo aloha, Maureen Mwanawasa. |
3 | Mwanawasa, the wife of Zambia's third president, the late Levy Patrick Mwanawasa, who ruled for seven years until his death in 2008, runs a non-government organisation called the Maureen Mwanawasa Community Initiative (MMCI), which helps underprivileged people in society. | Mitantana fikambanana tsy miankina amin'ny fanjakana antsoina hoe Maureen Mwanawasa Community Initiative (fisantaran'andraikitra eo anivon'ny fiarahamonina) (MMCI), izay mitondra fanampiana ho an'ireo vahoaka sahirana ao amin'ny fiarahamonina i Mwanawasa, vadin'ny filoham-pirenena fahatelo tao Zambia, Patrick Mwanawasa izay efa nodimandry, ary nitondra ny firenena nandritra ny fito taona mandra-pahafatiny tamin'ny taona 2008. |
4 | The NGO was very active when her husband was in power and received support from a number of organisations and individuals. | Navitrika aok'izany ity fikambanana ity nandritra ny nahateo amin'ny fitondrana ny vadiny ary nahazo fanohanana avy amin'ireo fikambanana sasantsasany sy avy amin'ireo olo-tsotra. |
5 | It has since scaled down its operations and it is only active in one or two areas, notably Kapiri Mposhi where it runs a school for underprivileged children. | Niha-nihena hatrany anefa ny asa soa nataony ka faritra iray na roa fotsiny sisa no iandraiketany, indrindra ao Kapiri Mposhi izay misy sekoly tantaniny ho an'ireo ankizy mahantra. |
6 | Details about the case are scant, but Mwanawasa, a lawyer herself, appeared in court and tweeted her reasons for her attendence in response to questions from Twitter users: | Tsy hita loatra ny antsipirihan'ity raharaha ity, saingy tonga nanatrika ny fotoam-pitsarana i Mwanawasa, fa mpisolovava ihany koa ny tenany, ary nisioka ny antony nanatrehany ny fotoana ho valin'ireo fanontaniana avy amin'ireo mpisera Twitter: |

10 | The Zambian Watchdog reported a potential scam in January 2012, but it is not clear if it is related to the present court case. | Nitatitra ny Zambian Watchdog fa efa nisy tranga fisolokiana tamin'ny Janoary 2012, saingy tsy fantatra raha misy ifandraisany amin'ity raharaham-pitsarana ankehitriny ity izany. |
11 | Quoting whistleblower Laston Nyirenda, the website reported: | Tamin'ny filazan'ilay mpanao ampamoaka (whisteblower) Laston Nyirenda no nitateran'ny habaka: |
12 | I am friends [on Facebook] with the said person and they started sending me messages purporting to be Mrs Mwanawasa and started asking me to lend them $2000 and send it to the person named Florence Lucky who they said is based in Madrid, Spain and want me to send the money using western union. | Naman' [ao amin'ny Facebook] ity olona voalaza ity aho ary nandefan'izy ireo hafatra milaza fa avy amin-dRamatoa Mwanawasa ny hafatra ka nangatahany mba hampindrana azy ireo vola mitentina 2000 dolara ary handefa izany any amin'ilay olona antsoina hoe Florence Lucky izay monina ao Madrid, Espaina ary nasain'izy ireo alefa amin'ny western union ny vola. |
13 | They even provided me a Zambian phone number I can call stating that it is for the former first lady if I want to confirm and when I called the number, the person who answered is based in [the city of] Kitwe and it is not even Mrs Mwanawasa. | Nomen'izy ireo laharana finday Zambiana mihitsy aho mba hahafahako miantso sy manamarina raha hoan'ny vadin'ny filoham-pirenena teo aloha marina tokoa izany, rehefa nantsoiko anefa ilay laharana, olona monina ao [an-tanandehibe] ao Kitwe no namaly ahy fa tsy Ramatoa Mwanawasa velively. |
14 | After Mwanawasa made it known on Twitter that she was in court, one user asked the former first lady how it felt to be cross-examined: | Rehefa nampahafantarin'i Mwanawasa tao amin'ny Twitter fa ao amin'ny fitsarana izy, nanontany an'ity vadin'ny filoham-pirenena teo aloha ity ny mpisera iray ny amin'ny fahatsapana an'izany hoe atao famotorana izany: |
15 | @mwanachilembo how did it feel to be on the other side? probably recieving end of a X examination? - Eric (@EricKamocha) October 2, 2013 | @mwanachilembo ahoana ny fahatsapana an'izany hoe ery amin'ny andaniny? angamba mahazo ny fiafaran'ny famotorana X? |
16 | She responded: | Hoy izy namaly: |
17 | @EricKamocha naturally it felt strange but it was a good experience | |
18 | - Maureen K Mwanawasa (@mwanachilembo) October 3, 2013 | @EricKamocha nahatsapa ho hafahafa tokoa aho saingy nahazoana traikefa tsara |
19 | Mwanawasa's tweets did not give a lot of details about the case such as the name of the culprit and where she is based. | Tsy nanome ny antsipirihan'ny raharaha ireo siokan'i Mwanawasa, tahaka ny anaran'ilay voampanga sy ny toerana onenany. |
20 | The former first lady, however, is not the first high profile Zambian who has had her profile faked. | Na dia izany aza, tsy ity vadin'ny filoham-pirenena teo aloha ity ihany no olona ambony niharan'ny kaonty hosoka. |
21 | Recently, a Facebook page in the name of the country's Vice President Dr. Guy Scott, cropped up sending “friend requests” to people who usually comment on political issues on the social networking site. | Vao haingana, nipoitra tampoka ihany koa ny pejy Facebook amin'ny anaran'ny filoham-pirenena lefitra Dr Guy Scott, ary mandefa fangataha-namana amin'ireo olona maneho hevitra matetika momba ny olana ara-politika ao amin'ny tambajotra sosialy. |
22 | When the Facebook page purported to belong to Dr. Scott emerged, citizen media website Zambian Eye reported about it, although there were questions on its authenticity: | Raha niparitaka fa Dr Scott no tompon'ilay pejy Facebook, nitatitra momba izany ny habaka fampahalalam-baovao an-olo-otsotra “Zambiana Eye”, na dia nisy aza ireo ahiahy momba ny mampitombina azy: |
23 | The all (whole lot) of Guy Scott to be sending friendship requests to every Jim and Jack on Facebook. | Izay rehetra (maro be) Guy Scott mandefa fangataha-namana ho an'izay Jim sy Jack rehetra ao amin'ny Facebook. |
24 | Doesn't take you to be a genius to figure out this[these] are accounts operated by the PF fake generals [ruling Patriotic Front supporters who call themselves by that name] on Facebook that want to use it to collect data. | Aza mihevitra ny tenanao ho matsilosaina ka hoe karakarain'ny antoko PF [antoko mpanohana ny fitondrana] sandoka ireo kaonty amin'ny Facebook ireo ka nokasaina hanangonana tahiry (data). |
25 | Wake up people. | Mifohaza ianareo ry vahoaka. |
26 | Dr Scott was latter quoted by the Zambia Intelligence News, saying: | Dr Scott no farany nolazain'ny “Zambia Intelligence News” izay nanambara hoe: |
27 | I opened an account in 2011 for campaign purposes and I have not opened any account since then. | Nanokatra kaonty aho tamin'ny taona 2011 mba hanaovana fanentanana ary tsy nanokatra kaonty intsony aho taorian'izany. |
28 | I have not used it since then so everything else that is propping up now is fake. | Tsy nampiasaiko intsony izany kaonty izany, ka izay zavatra hafa mitady fanohanana ankehitriny dia sandoka. |
29 | The whole thing is a fraud. | Hosoka avokoa ny rehetra. |
30 | It is basically fraudulent. | Mamitaka tanteraka. |
