The Zambia Air Force (ZAF) has fired Red Arrows chairman Kathavia Banda.
ZAF Public Relations Director Mwaka Simasiku said in a statement on Wednesday that Banda has been replaced with Nolasco Chilando.
Struggling Arrows have lost their last seven FAZ Super League matches in a row.
“ZAF wish to inform the general public that Col Nolasco Chilando has been appointed as Chairman of the Red Arrows Football Club to replace Lt Col Kathavia Banda,” Simusaki stated.
Arrows are 12th on the Super League table with 17 points after 17 matches played and in their last match they lost 3-1 to Kabwe Warriors at home.
After this loss, some Arrows supporters protested against Banda and called for his removal from the club.
“Command is grateful to Lt Col Banda for his immense contribution to the running of the club during his tenure of office and congratulates the new Chairman on his appointment.”
Simasiku added:”ZAF also wish to thank all Arrows supporters for their unwavering support to the club.”
