African market and truck stop

are truck driver stuck here to fuel up the truck they brought a diesel out in 5 gallon cans it took about 45 minutes to fill up your truck. they have regular gas stations and that's where we filled up for pickup. it wasn't too long before the truck started losing power and they waited until just about the very to pull the fuel filters and try to clean them, they were just filthy I don't know where the fuel came from that it was definitely contaminated. we left lussaka a at 4 o'clock in the afternoon on what should have been an 8 hour drive. we arrive 16 hours later on what was a really miserable drive. I think this road has more potholes per square inch than any other road in the world. And any one of them can take your truch out for good. we went through at least 6 police check stations and we're fine at 2 of them fines are negotiable depending on how good a talker.
