Sports Minister Chishimba Kambwili has congratulated Joe Malanji on his recent election as African Golf Confederation president.
Malanji was elected AGC president on Wednesday after beating the incumbent Alfred Dunn during a meeting held Swaziland.
He was the confederation vice-president prior to this week’s AGC election.
“On behalf of the President Michael Sata and the PF Government let me congratulate Ambassador Malanji on his election as Africa Golf Confederation President,” Kambwili said.
“This is not a mean achievement and I encourage him to work more hard and put Zambia on the World map,” he said.
Kambwili added:”We are extremely excited with the news, it clearly shows that Zambian sports administrators are being recognised World-wide. I intend to invite him to my office next week so that we can officially congratulate him.”
Malanji once served as Zambia Golf Union president.
It looks like Sports has put Kambwili on the limelight and or Kamwbili has put Sports in the limelight. Ever since he took over things seem to favor him. I mean everything starting from boxing to soccer seem to conspire to give Kambwili a huge favor. He is simply on top of things – in the way he acknowledges things under his ministry..Continue inspiring more people under your jurisdiction.
Now can the people of Luanshya have their Golf Course back!
Loooool!!!! For real 🙂
Was Expecting statement like *by and large he has done Zambia proud and whoever is doubting there is no debate about it. its final and if you not happy with it go to hell*
@twede……that’s a good sense of humour…
LT there are no such things as ‘african golf’ where is your editor.
Mr Malanji.Forget politics and just stick to golf.
Congratulations mudala!!
Congratulation Mr Malanji! Remember, charity begins at home. Bring back the glory of golf in Zambia. Your achievement is great for Zambia. Make sure the golf facilities are up to date as African tournaments will start coming to Zambia too. Work well with Kambwili. Kambwili is a performer though he speaks with PF type of arrogance. The good thing about him is that when he sees sense from his critics, he concedes and hides his pride. Example is the Gabon Disaster Stadium issue. Good luck!
Congratration Mr Malanji , the Chilabombwe product ,Kakoso to be specific , you are a great man , wishing you all the best in your new position as president for Africa Golf Confederation.Chililabombwe golf club be proud .

The continent has spoken, and all has come to pass! Zambia can only begin reaping the fruits of having her own son at the helm of such an auspicious entity as the AGC. Congratualtions, Amabassodor.
