  1. So, what was the basis of disqualifying Fred Mwila and Emmy Musonda? Why not allow people who have played the game and coached at international level take an active role in football administration. They understand the game and can shape a better future for the game. Look at Abedi Pele and Ghana, Michel Platini and France, and there are many more. Lesa wandi eeee!

    And we want Zambia Nationbal team to do better???

  2. I wonder what the requirements for the march 29 polls are. LT give us more infor, you can do better than this.

  3. # 2, Did you read that Fred & Emmy were disqualified? Where did you see that?

  4. I wouldn’t love to see Kalu heading FAZ,besides he already has enough to do!Ba Mulonga aswell I think his time is up now.

  5. Papa,it does not make sense.fred mwila disqualified fo wat?somebody explain.teddy bear’s time is over.jst choose btwn kalu and adams.

  6. Bangwele imwe mulepanga fye ichongo. Kalusha Bwalya deserves the FAZ Presidency,take it or leave it you got to love the boy, jealous uko panse bangwere imwe.. Viva Kalu

  7. kalu go go. Mulonga is out dated now,enough is enough Teddy you squandered our money so you can rest.

  8. For better football administration in this country, it only has to be Adams for that position.

  9. What tribe is Mwamelo? Otherwise his CV is very rich for treasurer’s position ………….
    Go Kalusha Go!!!!

  10. Kalu and Adams can do great for the so called Faz.Check what agwan with SA,they are busy organising upcomming friendlies with big teams.What has the current Faz curent officials done since they came into office?

  11. or maybe Kalu and Emmanuel can bring us back to our old glorious days of football.
