State House has refuted media perception that it had endorsed Kalusha Bwalya executive ahead of the crucial Football Association of Zambia (FAZ) Annual General Meeting AGM set for 26th March. Below is a full statement issued by the special Assistant to the President,Press and Public Relations, Mr Dickson Jere
Ba LT I SINCERELY REQUEST YOU TO DO AN ARTICLE ON THE ZAMBIAN EMBASSY IN BEIJING. I HAVE HEARD OF A FEW PROBLEMS IN ZAMBIAN EMBASSIES AROUND THE WORLD WHICH WHEN I TRAVELLED TO THOSE COUNTRIES I NEVER ENCOUNTERED AND SIMPLY WROTE THEM OFF AS EXAGGERATIONS. I FULLY UNDERSTAND THE WORK OF AN EMBASSY WHICH OF COURSE IS TO PROMOTE AND SAFEGUARD ZAMBIAN INTERESTS. BUT AS FOR THE EMBASSY IN BEIJING, THEY MAY BE DOING A GOOD JOB IN APPEASING THE TWO GOVERNMENTS CONCERNED BUT THEY ARE FAR BEHIND WHEN IT COMES TO ATTENDING TO ZAMBIAN CITIZENS. EVEN WHEN YOUR SITUATION IS DETERIORATING TO THAT OF A DESTITUTE THEY WILL NOT EVEN ASSIST YOU. I WONDER REALLY IF THESE PEOPLE AS ZAMBIANS EVEN HAVE HEARTS
THOSE PEOPLE THEIR DO NOT EVEN APPEAR QUALIFIED, THE LEVEL OF DIPLOMACYIU IS EXTREMELY LOW, THE ATTITUDE YOU RECEIVE FROM THEM IS VERY UPSETTING AND YOU WONDERINK WHY THEY WILL TREAT FELLOW ZAMBIANS LIKE BEGGING DOG. AN AMBASSY SHOULD BE THE PLACE WE CAN LOOK FOR HELP AND ASSYLUM FROM OUR FELLOW ZAMBIANS. HOW CAN A DIPLOMAT GIVE YOU A RESPONSE SUCH THINGS DONT JUST HAPPEN THE WAY YOU THINK ABOUT THEM WHEN YOU REQUEST INFORMATION? IN A DESPERATE SITUATION REALLY THESE ARE THE PEOPLE TASKED ASSIST US LAWFUL EMERGENCIES AND THEY SAY TO YOU WE CANT ACT WITHOUT PERMISSION FROM LUSAKA WHICH CAN TAKE WEEKS
FAZ problems are worrying because football gobles corossal sums of taxpayers money. Soccer has to improve in the country not #100 on the world ranking.
State House endorses the abuse of women
State House endorses imperialists to torture Zambian employees
so whats the big deal with FAZ?
Kalu ya luka manje wa ona!
On “State House has refuted media perception that it had endorsed Kalusha Bwalya executive ahead of the crucial Football Association of Zambia (FAZ) Annual General Meeting AGM set for 26th March” what else can one expect from a tribalist who is probably supporting his fellow Easterner to be FAZ boss using tribalism.
Anyway, Im ask ing the Bemba by tribe (if Im not mistaken) Kalusha BWALYA to stop or ensure that his suppirters stop behaving like PF mediocre-kaponyas and/or cadres who who rush to the PRESS to release important documents that are confidential in nature or for personal use.
Be blest all and vote for the mighty UPND Team to form GRZ Administration this 2011 elections.

Kalusha is perfectly okay to behave as he is right now. There is nothing wrong he has done because for his level of education that is the best we should expect. I blame you chaps who keep elevating him to levels he can’t handle. This hallucination going on around in Zambia where people seem to think that education is not relevant for one to be a leader is costing Zambia a lot. I wonder what sort of people we are. I don’t want to hear anybody complaining about Kalusha. You are the ones who put him there, HE WAS ELECTED!!. ARE YOU SO DAFT THAT YOU COULD NOT TELL THE END RESULT WITH HIM??? DIDN’T WE LEARN ENOUGH FROM CHILUBA? In-fact I wish Kalusha wins the vote in Kitwe so that Zambian football remains f.u.c.k.e.d for another year – maybe then we will have learnt something. ViIVA KALU!
Now they say it!!!
iwe chitole no 7 do u know who kalu is? r u telling me me that u need degrees for you to succeed. no. kalu has exelled wih his level of education. even you chitole chobe you cant be compared to him. Ask the pipo u always praise like Linoel mess, C Ronaldo, Pele, M Platin abena Becheniber how far they ve gone wth education.Balitupela ama talents aya pusana pusana but it depends on how you use your them. Dont think sducation eikakulengesha ukucita execell. We ve seen Drs fail in some other disciplines.
RB u ve my vote in this tripartite elections. So bashikulu bakumawa ili ilyashi mwalanda lyawama sana, shows u a leader with the interest of the masses at heart viva RB
That is what you get when you elect a Grade 12 failure to lead FAZ. Learn from PF, the man has two degrees.
Too bad for the Kalusha led FAZ, they thought the disclosure/misrepresentation of RB’s letter was a plus for them. Looks like a BIG MINUS. Why do people want to cling to “power” so badly, and it is not only in politics !
Iwe number 6 how can you sink so low as to attach a tribal sentiment to Kalusha’s outright failure? Do you understand how big football is in Zambia? ALL political formations and religiuos faith groups, tribes, provinces and traditional leaders support believe in soccer. For this reason I would rate FAZ president more popular than state president, so how can you occupy such a position of huge responsibility and influence and run its affairs while living outside Zambia? How can something so plain be tribal????
Apatebeta lesa… ,mukalanda mukanaka.,., we will sing again after AGM.
#9 LAZA LAZA CUBA – Do you w.a.n.k over Kalusha? Does Kalusha turn you on? Go to school man! You are too ignorant. Moron.
Muntu anakiliya chabe chibemba (zambian language) pa G.12, y do pipo keep asking for toooo much from a brother with only Bembalish on his G.12 transcript?(no certificate by the way, just transcript!)
Jere should be fired by RB immediately, FAZ’s article was exactly about congratulating Kalusha for achievement. Why can’t Jere realism that FAZ is endorsing RB as republican president by publishing that he is supporting citizens on their achievements? Why should Kalusha & FAZ treat that a confidential thing?
@ laza laza cuba You are contradicting your yourself by stating this: “Balitupela ama talents aya pusana pusana but it depends on how you use your them. Dont think sducation eikakulengesha ukucita execell. We ve seen Drs fail in some other disciplines. ”
It is clear that God blessed Kalu with football skills on the field and money generation, running an organisation is not is MO.
I am now worried with Simata Simata’s attitude towards Kalusha’s Bwalya’s group after the 26/03/2011 AGM election. Why Simata is questioning FIFA’s directive that Kalusha Bwalya’s group goes up to mid April 2011, no one no knows apart from this Simata Siamat whom Zambians have much faith in the running of Football in Zambia.
Ifper adventure Kalusha’s group leave Football administration immediately after the 26 March 2011, then Kamanga and Simata Simata’s group wont have a proper handover and there will be total chaos like the way Chiluba ended up mismanaging Zambia because he shunned proper handed over from Kaunda.
Mukalanda mukanaka. What have all our degrees done for zambia with all this poverty. Tel me, is bcoz kalusha has no degree that we have poverty,zamtel & napsa scams? Anyway, enjoy your hatred while the man keeps quiet & moving up. Agm you have already lost to him by the way. You cant get 2/3 you dreamers. Ask jordaan.
At the agm, we wil ask how many clubs have chairmen who have degrees so that they vote for dickson jere’s kamanga. Our former players led teams will be with their fellow non degree holder kalusha. You think footbal is organised in the lecture theatre or parliament, brace yourselves for another defeat. Footbal is kulima tower, town centre, city market e.t.c
No 14 na no 17 namona tamwakwata amano. ine naliya ku school bwino bwino but kalu ninshimbi nalimupela respect. Ndaulefwaya tuma ama pepala yobe ku mail account yandi naine inkutumine. wilamona kwat ngatwamupela fi respect ninshi tatwasambilila
@ laza laza cuba no# 21 I was not saying that, merely stating facts that kalu is a great money organiser and footballer, running faz is not his strong point though.
@22 mwanawakwitu – wht has done to deserve all the rubish you r writing about him?
Ba GALU we told u. Donchi Kubeba. Jere has spoken well. Mr.Kalusha Bwalya stop bringing the name of the president in your confusion
Which of these 2 presidents has more issues? Which of these 2 presidents got minority votes last time they stood for polls ?
kalu uletusebana *********Why force the president to support u? FIFA has rejected u, RB has rejected u, more than 2/3 of counsellors have rejected u! No one will save u this time!
guys be serious. Kau is a geneious. many of you hate him because of his achievement. the man is so qualified that your government was paying him 50 million kwacha a month as chipolpolo coach. how much are being beeng paid by your boss? if you are ignorant, he is also one of the first zambians to obtain a degree in computer sciences.
Lets not joke. Kalu has achieved playing football and has made us proud but not in administration. He has failed. Even when he was coach he failed. Please excuse us, Zambia need to move forward
I do not think Kalu took advantage of RB’s letter,its just that RB’s nephew misinterpreted Kalu’s appreciation of RB’s letter .Kalu released his personal letter to the press to share his success with his friends and funs just like every one of us do when we achieve something like a degree,promotion etc.All this stinks of jealousy by RB’s nephew. VIVA KALU.COME MARCH 26 BALE CHIMONA!!!!
#26 no insults pleeeease!!! No rational soccer administrator has rejected Kalu my friend that is why u find that only small corrupted clubs from the rural areas filed in the motion of no confidence.we all know that this fracas is personal and we are just waiting for March 26. Where were the big teams in lusaka when teams from Pemba and Mazabuka were tabling the motion u should ask?DONCHI KUBEBA!!!
LET THE FOOLS HANG THEMSELVES!!!
an insult kalusha pack and go now . u like gadaffi iam tired . uk residents support kamanga and simataa
we are tired of ur level of administrate misses . PLEASE GO NOW OR U FACE UN WARRANTED EVICTION.
CAF DONT PAY MONTHLY THATS WHY U A HANGING ON TO THIS JOB. MOVE OUT CHAP! KALUSHA DONT BE NAIVE PEOPLE DONT LIKE U AND PLEASE HAND OVER UR DIPLOMATIC PASSPORT ANY WAY. U A RUBBISH.
Moss u ar the only one who dont like great kalu. make a survey and you ll be embarrsed
With all due respect to state house, what is the point of releasing this press statement? Kalu’s track record speaks for itself. Before those of you that are tarnishing his name became known, he was making a name for himself and the country at large. This is how you repay him, with all the disrespect and dismissiveness. His work has been recognized globally and that is why many of you are desperate to bring him down. He may not be the best sports administrator but I believe it takes a team to achieve good results, not one person. We must also remember that in his tenure as FAZ chairman, there was a recession and this government failed to host the All Africa games. Nobody has taken responsibility for that. Support your countrymen and that will pay off eventually to the nation.
RB has done well to remain above faz wrangles. it a problem of the football community and let them sort it out. i think at this stage it does not matter what he does not everyone will be happy
# 36 Maria nakutasha sana pafyo walemba
VERY LOW LEVEL THINKERS ON THIS BLOG!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! AM OUT
LETS REMEMBER THAT HIS EXCELLENCY THE BOSS IS ALSO FACING A VOTE SO HE JUST WANTS TO LEVEL HIS PLAYING FIELD – MAKES SENSE TO ME.
Maria
Thanx,unfortunately you represent the minority in our country.The majority are PHD type and that explains lack of development in our country cos working as a team and appreciating each other is not part of the culture.
Iwe laza laza cuba nga walisambilila tulange in that your edu had an impact on the way you argue. There is no need ukutuma amapepa ku mailbox. I agree with mwanawakwitu somehow. Look at our friends in the neighboring countries. Football is not just about organising funds,it requires strategic planning. Take the NFL, NBA, the FA or even SAFA if they can employ somebody with Kalu’s credentials to head such an institution. Wake up Zambia.
