Preparations for the reconvened AGM of 2011 have progressed extremely well. Members and affiliates have continued to confirm their attendance of the AGM which will be successfully executed at the Mulungushi University on Saturday 30 April.

Guidance on who chairs the FAZ AGM is well categorized and what happens at the Annual General Meeting. The chairmanship of the meeting as per FAZ constitution is the FAZ President and that is well clarified both by FAZ and various FIFA correspondences.

Further the AGM will follow the full agenda as circulated under FIFA guidance.

Added to that, we are under no illusion to subject ourselves to scrutiny regarding the delegates list. We won’t go through again.

Going into the AGM, Football House would like to remind the general football community that a significant number of Member Associations and Member Clubs have already received their 2011 Annual General Meeting documents either at the Mubende Country Lodge in Luanshya or from the FAZ Secretariat at Football House. These clubs have signed for the documents and a record is kept by the Secretariat. This serves to remind all Member Associations and Member Clubs that have received and signed for their 2011 Annual General Meeting documents to ensure that they take these documents to the reconvened meeting in Kabwe. No extra AGM documents will be available and only those Member Associations and Member Clubs that have not received their documents will get them at this month-end’s reconvened AGM.

Further FAZ wishes to commend the membership of their wonderful support and commitment to serving the game and ensuring that we continue on our path of development and success.

The football community has exhibited great responsibility, leadership and unity in this period during which we have continued to witness attacks on our football from individuals that have no regard for the game. The football community is fully aware of these individuals’ failed machinations, their illegitimacy and redundancy and futile attempts to mislead the football community and nation. For a long time, they attempted to thrive on propaganda of lies, deceit and manipulation. But by their ‘works’ – their words and deeds – they are known and have been roundly rejected.

To an individual who has taken to propagating lies and shamelessly exhibit her ignorance of football and its administration, the Association shall waste no time to respond to her and any such persons or groups of individuals she may speak for or represent.

We reserve our energy to football excellence.

A very good statement from people who are running the game of football not those holigans calling themselves interim…. For Simata and company you can fool some people some time but you cant fool all the people all the time. The agenda for the AGM was well circulated and FIFA clarified the issue on who chairs the meeting. In addittion the FAZ constitution clearly stipulates the Agenda and the chair for AGM meeting. Congrats FAZ for keeping quite as the holigans make noise.

ba FAZ interim, why are you cry babies? now you dont want the REAL faz president to chair the AGM, why are you full of excuses? or maybe you want to have excuses in advance when your foolish motion is thrown out that had it not been for Kalu to chair the AGM we could have managed to pass the motion! GROW UP…. SImataa, some of us know you to be full of confusions and its only f o o ls that follow you!!!

FINANCE BANK FIRES COUNSEL OVER SIMATAA LETTER
FIRST ON WEB BLOGS
Finance Bank Zambia has fired it Legal counsel Alfred Roberts over the FAZ Simataa Simataa letter to the Bank. In December 2010, Simataa wrote a letter to Finance Bank instructing them to freeze FAZ accounts until Football House wrangle were resolved. Finance Bank reacted to Simataa’s letter and froze the FAZ accounts for about 2 days.
FAZ has since taken the bank to court for compensation of their actions during those 2 days. It since emerged within the Bank that the decision to obey Simataa’s letter had the blessing of the Bank’s lawyer Alfred Roberts. Apparently when the Branch manager received the letter from Simataa, it was sent to Roberts who ordered that the accounts be frozen.
The Bank’s new management fro South…

#8: This is interesting. But how can an interim / caretaker management fire a senior official. It appears these South Africans have already been offered the bank. Its a shame that they have continued to make drastic changes to the bank as if they have already been offered the FBZ by BOZ. Even the Director of HR has been fired and replaced by their own who probably doesn’t even understand Zambia’s labour laws.No wonder BOZ have refused to publish the list of the bidders to date.

there is no interime/caretaker.Faz executive duly elected is there and kalusha bwalya is its president.So this rubish of saying the caretaker interim committee is shit.People must learn to wait for their time than frustrating those that want to develop our soccer.Kalusha is a god,but human and people simata and kamanga should learn to appreciate others than this hate they have shown us.

If there is anything that has come out of the FAZ wrangles is the need for someone to instil discipline in the way the media reports issues. The case in point is the referring to a group of people as an interim FAZ committee. There is only one FAZ committee!! I ask for careful reporting because this careless reporting may lead, one day, to some people calling themselves an interim CABINET of ZAMBIA. Democracy demands that all wait for their turn to get a chance to govern through the ballot box. Being over enthusiastic, without gaining legitimacy through the ballot, can only bring chaos. Be warned! Democrats are patient and respect the ballot, win or lose!

Simataa and co claim they do not have to give reasons as to why a vote of no confidence should be passed ! This is exactly as it sounds “THEY ARE ASKING PEOPLE TO PASS A VOTE OF NO CONFIDENCE WITHOUT KNOWING WHY ! ” I Find that amazing !
My thinking is that Kalu and co must be given a chance to oppose that motion and logically that can only happen if the reasons are given . Otherwise it will just be mob justice at play !
