Kambwili confronts referee after Nkana win

Share

Sports Minister Chishimba Kambwili on Saturday physcally confronted Ethiopian referee Bamlak Weyesa minutes after Nkana beat Tunisian club Etoile du Sahel 4-3 in a CAF Confederation Cup Group B match in Kitwe.

Weyesa awarded two controversial penalties to Etoile in this seven-goal thriller at Nkana Stadium in Wusakile.

Immediately after the final whistle, Kambwili rushed on to the pitch where he accused the ref of poor officiating.

Kambwili was later whisked away from the pitch as police escorted the ref to the dressing room.

    • Where is Ndobo???? Did you hear that Kambwili was about ukuponona lefu? Kabimba will have a long weekend, scared of meeting the fuming Kambwili in Cabinet meeting on monday.

    • @Nostradamus
      yes indeed i heard,,,,,, i now hear that kambwili dosent like all kabimba`s friends from north africa,,,, and kabimba is very unhappy,,,,, and i tell you what,,, on medical dctors`s orders kabimba is banned from exchaging ama kofi with anyone,,,,, thats why he keeps a safe distance from kambwili

  1. ALA CHANSONI SANA. Ba Minister in everything nikuzichindika. After all Zambia won. Our leaders should avoid always trying to be controversial.

  2. Ba Kambwili, don’t see yourself as a leopard, your name means ulukasu in the East.

    But seriously, that is the job for FAZ officials, not politicians. You are not known by FIFA in the same way FAZ officials are.

    So, lay off and apologise to the Referee and all Match Officials.

  3. I hope the referee does not report Kambwili for government interference to FIFA. I agree that Kambwili is not recognized by FIFA, he should have left that to the FAZ officials.

  4. Ni ignorance nangu ninshi ba minister sure. There is no reason for him to behave in this manner even if the referee was wrong. God help us with these PF minister. Power is in our hand come 2016, tanaka na behaviour yamusabanya.

  5. Kambwili is a sanguine. These are people driven by emotions rather than reason. they are indiscipline, bossy, bubbly and seems to bounce through life. They always seek recognition & their voices are high pitched. The problem of sanguines they dont notice it themselves becoz they are full of fun and energy usually oblivious to anything other than having a good time. They can’t think through their actions of past five minutes and would never be apologetic. As for the penalty Munthali had a slight had touch and loped the ball over. but nice game Nkana you ve earned respect fromnArab teams us of now.

  6. Forget about FIFA. Kambwili was acting and behaving as a Nkana-die-hard supporter, not as a PF usual thug. Government had nothing to do with his behavior, ask government spokesman or sports minister.
    Wait a minute, is Kambwili not the sports minister?? Hooooo lord, its allover 3 points to Etoile, plus a fine to be slammed on Nkana anf FAZ.

    • It’s pure thuggery period, die hard supporters have respect for structures other people. what happened with roan united at Kafubu stadium? They were punished. Where the fans not “die hard”. Faz should punish kambwili.

  7. Once a thug, always a thug!!!
    Shameful performance from a Member of Parliament and Minister for sport and culture. But then, culture, what culture?

  8. Ha Ha Ha Haaaaaaaaaa………., that’s your minister PF, don’t pretend Kambwili is embarrassing your government, this has been part of your PF character and shambolic governing legacy Zambia will remember PF for. Well done Kambwili for being true to your self representing madness of PF govt.

  9. Ba Kambwili, please you’re now a minister, stop behaving like a cadre. Don’t you know that FIFA can have us disciplined for that. FIFA doesn’t like GOV’T interference in football.

  10. It just goes to show that ichi chi minister chisushi and he is serving in a free for all cabinet without a president.imagine if he displayed this silliness in mwanawasa’s time even ka ka chiluba.the bustard would have been former minister by now.this is a scam and mind you kambwili is no ordinary fan,he is a goverment minister mind you and in whatever he does he goes with that tag.so here fifa will step in to protect its own.thats why i pray that fifa deducts points from nkana to teach this iddiot that buffoonery comes with grave consquencies

  11. This fool should be arrested and charged with treatening violency and abusing an official. Certainly, he is not Ministerial material, not fit to be even an ordinary MP. Period. ACC please save us. What is still happening to his corruption case?

  12. Here in the UK Kambwili would have been sacked for misconduct but fortunately for him in Zambia he is likely to be commended and promoted for a job well done.

  13. Typical PF behaviour. Such lumpens are littered all over zambia’s landscape in the name of “PF WORKING.” Gullible zambians, this is the rubbish you voted for in 2011!

  14. Not Ba Minister Please…….? fimo ifintu ulekalako ama cadres……senseless soccer fans. spare us the embarrasment and possible sanctions from CAF.
