A great and true Christian. MHSRIP.
MHSRIP. Great and accomplished referee in Zambia. I sat under his lecture on match officiating. he made realise we need to learn more on match officiating since most of us are self acclaimed match officials and thinks we know more than the match officials themselves.
Condolences to the family. I was just reading his article in the sunday times.
