We are no concerned about Gabon benefit friendly says Joyce Chabala

Share

Late Zambia goalkeeper Efford Chabala’s widow Joyce says she is not concerned with the arrangements FAZ was making ahead of Sunday’s 20th Anniversary for the 1993 Gabon Air Disaster.

FAZ has organised a friendly with Zimbabwe as part of the air disaster memorial.

According to FAZ, proceeds from the Zimbabwe friendly which is expected to be played at Nkoloma Stadium in Lusaka will be donated to the families of the disaster victims.

But Chabala suggested that the bereaved families will go ahead with their usual memorial of visiting the fallen heros’ burial site at Independence Stadium without focusing on what FAZ was doing.

” We no longer deal with those (FAZ), we don’t mind whether they come (for the memorial) or not,” she said.

“We will just go ahead with the same programme as families. It seems it’s our own thing,” Chabala added.
