They said that Chibelenga, who was in a company of his friend was herding cattle on February 26, 2013 around 09.00 hours when he decided to take a bath in the clear waters along the lake. 

 

His friend who remained on the banks discovered that his friend had taken long  as he never resurfaced after diving into the lake.
