  1. ba LT, this article is so crap! My 7 year old can really put a better version of yours! Check article and correct the misdeeds!

  2. even myself who grew up in compunds in luanshya,without any formal education can tell the english is wrong,who actualy owns this bloody lusaka times?cos they seem to get news from times of zambia and try to rewrite i,and doing that they write in poor english

  3. Imwe Ba LT! Musonka Kasonka?? Hey, that man was my father’s headmaster! Dont mess around with his name! He was Musa Kasonka but like Section 24 above is telling you, correct your article or employ some of us as proof-readers. All you could do is send us stories we proof-read for you and hand it back for publication. Check my copy above? No spelling mistakes you see??

  4. Can some one clear the air if KalushaBwalya’s bid for FIFA/CAF position has any backing from GRZ or its just personal initative and using connections. His house at FAZ is not in order and his team has failed us at National level. What sucess is he going to score at international level. The guy is going to far. Jordan is the right man for the job.He delivered the World Cup in South Africa in terms of manegerial aorganisations.Zambia’s rankings on FIFA has gone the lowest ever. Is that not sign enough of failure. In two years Zambia failed to advance further at the East Africa senior Challenge Cup. We lost to Zanzibar and again to Ethiopia. There is something wrong with Kalu he admin is no long eyes on the ball but eyes on the purse.

  5. #6 luckily voters at FIFA/CAF are not as blind and as backward as Zambian voters. They are going to take everything into consideration analyzing Kalu and at the moment he has Galu written all over him.
    LT, we can help do pro-reading for u for free. For now just activate spell check on the computers u use.
    On the sad part I am not watching Zed football until after the AGM.

  6. Just noticed that the same mistake on Masheke has been copied from the Times of Zambia website. Somebody is doing a cut and paste without acknowledging the source of the information [ plagiarism ].

  7. chipolopolo regulars need a lot of practice together to start winning matches avoid the continuing slump on the fifa rankings..despite the libya upset which might in the long run cost us a place at next year’s africa cup finals, these players need to start building zambia’s lost glory no wonder we cannot find friendly matches with stronger opposition. am shocked how we are now behind to teams like botswana, uganda, mozambique and even libya. i thought zambia was the highest ranked team in that group when the qualifiers started. we urgently need to up how game..:-?x(#:-s:-t
