Chilumba backs Lwipa to shine at Power

Power Dynamos coach Tenant Chilumba says ex-Zambia striker Ignatius Lwipa has the potential to rediscover his form that made him one of the best players in the FAZ Super League.

Lwipa, who joined Power from Zanaco in January, on Wednesday made his debut for the Kitwe side with a goal in the 3-1 win over Indeni in Ndola.

The ex-Zanaco and Afrisport forward replaced Jimmy Ndhlovu fifteen minutes after the restart and found the back of the net on 75 minutes.

Chilumba said Power have given Lwipa a good opportunity to revive his career.

“We thought of giving Lwipa a chance to play and I think he put up a good game,” he said.

“We will keep on encouraging the boy so that he can get his good form back,” Chilumba added.

Injury had sidelined Lwipa for over year before his switch to Arthur Davies.

He was a member of the home-based Zambia squad that minted bronze at the inaugural CHAN in 2009.

  1. Mwaiche kontolola panono. I personally know you as a good player from Zanaco. You may have been sidelined at Zanaco because zanaco usually has too many good players due to their capacity to pay so you fight for the position. You will soon be called for National duties. Viva Power Viva Lwipa!!!!
