Medical Stars chairman Alex Mambwe has said he will be contesting for the position of Faz executive committee member at next month’s elective Faz annual general meeting.
Mambwe said he felt it was time to do away with petitions and let the vote do the talking as a way of protesting against the Kalusha Bwalya led executive whom he has battled against for the last five years.
“I’m also offering myself as one of the candidates and declaring my interest and stand as a committee member,” Mambwe said.
“We will campaign. There is nothing like quarreling here but going there to work for this country in terms of football.
“The honeymoon is over. For those members who feel they can continue let them show the members that they can work let them not hide behind the Africa Cup success because it will be very unfortunate.”
Mambwe who had raised petitions against Kalusha Bwalya in 2009 and 2010 said he was ready to accept defeat should he lose at the FAZ AGM.
“This is the right thing to do unlike raising petitions. Petitions are not ok from experience but this will be a litmus test for those who are serving in Faz,” Mambwe said.
Mambwe joins fellow football firebrand Keith Mwewa in standing for the Faz executive committee positions while Henschel Chitembeya is vying for the Faz vice president position.
Meanwhile, Kabwe Warriors president Andrew Kamanga has said he will not be challenging Kalusha for the Faz presidency.
Let the AfricaCup of Zambia election Games begin……..
bakakunyankula iwe dimwit, mmd (nachi rb) wich was supporting u is no longer there
The only decent person in the whole setup is Pivoty Simwanza and I would urge Pivoty to go for some position within FAZ and reconcile with Kalusha. Simwanza has a heart for football this can be evidenced by the huge donations he gives to clubs in need. I would love you bloggers to give me your feelings.
Kalusha must resign and become the technical director for soccer development. The shoes of presidency are too big for him.
No.4 U your reasoning is simply terrible…..
Kamanga , watina, bushe ni Ci simaaaataaa cale kutumpika?
History 4 faz elections has it that!No 1 has won a 2nd term at the AGM as president.KALU is going DOWN this election.wait 4 the challenger.Viva Alex Mambwe imwe bakandile!
