A survivor of the 2017 road accident that killed three Kitwe United supporters is excited to see the team compete in the FAZ Super League this year.

Martin Mwaba, 25, survived the 6th May mishap in Chambishi as Kitwe supporters were traveling to Chingola for a Division One match against Chingola Police.

On Sunday, Mwaba watched Chingalika lose 1-0 to Forest Rangers at Garden Park on the 1st anniversary of the accident.

“My life is okay after the accident. I had head injuries but I have recovered. It is important and exciting that we won promotion and I am here watching the team in the Super Division after that accident,” Mwaba said.

He is looking forward to seeing Chingalika stay in the top league.

“We just need to work hard and ensure that we remain in the Super Division. I am encouraging our players to put in more efforts so that we can pick more points,” Mwaba said.

The Buchi Boys are the best performers of the four promoted teams in the league this season.

Eleventh placed Kitwe have 13 points from 10 matches played.
