Several Zambians and her close friends expressed their anger and surprise at the claims that were made by a woman calling herself Keisha Fisher. From the comments sections of the same story that was published, several readers expressed their disgust and challenged Keisha to tell the truth of what happened as opposed to demonizing the country to cover up her misdeeds.
Nalwamba Kay is one of the readers that consistently disagreed with Keisha’s story and had given her up to Monday to retract the falsehoods. Nalwamba and her sister Womba hosted Keisha in their Olympia home at the time she was in Zambia and below is her story of Keisha Fisher.
Hi, Here is what i know about Keisha….
Keisha came to Zambia on an outreach programme under Youth With A Mission, Perth Australia (YWAM, Perth), this is an inter-denominational, non-profit christian missionary organisation. My sister Womba, was under the same organisation at that time and that is how she knew Keisha.
When on outreach, YWAM students are always required to stay together in group and move as a team for safety and security reasons, but Keisha never wanted that, she said she wanted her freedom and that is how we resolved to accommodate her at our family home.
However, we noticed that she seemed to like to go out to Garden compound or Mandevu and spend time with men and on many of these occasions she would get back home late, around midnight or after midnight (At these times, ‘”Men”would drop her off at home) and at times she would go for 2-3 days without coming back home. Once she even left our house to go and leave in Mandevu for about a week.
She told us that this was not her first time in Zambia but that some years ago she lived in Kitwe and during her stay there, she fell pregnant but had a miscarriage.
She said she was relocating to Tazania because she had interest in a particular man she met whilst there on an outreach programme.
I was therefore surprised to read of her in the papers with a different surname because we know her as Keisha S Garber. It was shocking to learn that she said she was afraid that the so called rapist could be stoned to death if she had him reported.
To me, her story does not add up. Ask her how she came up with that “Munana”surname for her baby. Could it be that she knows the man who raped her? Was the man her boyfriend and refused responsibility?
Most messages she wrote to me on Facebook have been blocked, i think she changed the privacy settings because she knew that i would use those messages against her.
However i have attached screen shorts of some messages that am able to retrieve, notice that she has also changed her user name on Facebook, she is now using BabygAndme as her user name.
From the messages, she speaks without any indication that something was wrong with her pregnancy. If she was raped, the tone and style of writing would have been different, just like it was with her story in the SUN newspaper
