  1. Zambia will never win any international competition until the will of the people via the ballot is respected. Watch this space

  2. These big guys must learn from the Junior Chipolppolo, who are very consistent with their excellent performance. Wake up Senior Chipolopolo from your deep slumber and begin to excel as well. God bless Zambia!

  3. AS LONG AS HH IS KEPT BEHIND BARS , THE COUNTRY SHALL CONTINUE RECORDING MAJOR SUCCESESS IN ECONOMY SOCIAL AND OVERALL PEOPLE ARE VERY HAPPY AND AT PEACE, MY NEIGHBOUR ALWAYS FRIES MEAT AFTER HH WAS ARRESTED

  4. What a use.less team it is. Very poor selection of players. This wedson is a disappointment. Thats why Kalu would always opt for muzungu coaches. How do u pic this Malunga goal keeper who plays on the bench at Nkana against Toaster Nsabata or Zesco goal keeper?? You pick finished players like Sakuwaha and Luipa??? Rubbish of a coach. Just time waster. I wud rather we use the under 20 as our main team not these rubbish from wedson. Corruption yeka yeka in player selection

  5. Indeed Nsabata is supposed to be there as second 2 Mweene. JONAS &LWIPA SHOULD BE REMOVED FORTHWITH. it’s not progressive otherwise ninshi 2012 lads need to be there.
