Unprecedented flooding has overwhelmed Mass Media residents forcing many to abandon their homes.
Diamond Media has visited the area where authorities have been pumping out water and among the worst hit are three houses and a lodge.
Many residents fear flooding may result in waterborne diseases due to the fact that most water sources have likely been contaminated with deadly bacteria.
Besides rural areas badly hit by floods, Lusaka is one of the most affected urban centers and the problem has exposed poor city planning by the council.
Lack of drainage and systematic construction of concrete fences has turned some residences into pools of water in life-threatening amounts.
