Kamanga Bounces Back

Share

Andrew Kamanga has bounced back as FAZ President after beating his only challenger Emmanuel Munaile by 28 votes at the delayed elective annual general meeting held on Saturday in Livingstone.

Kamanga polled 57 votes against Munaile’s 29 to seal a new four-year mandate at the helm of Football House.

Ex-Zesco United Secretary Justin Mumba is the new FAZ Vice President after brushing aside competition from Konkola Mine Police boss Gideon Mwenya.

Mumba amassed 55 votes with Mwenya collecting 31 and little-known Lunga Mandona had zero votes.

Zambia Army officer Priscilla Katoba scooped the position of Women’s representative with a landslide victory.

Katoba won with 67 votes with her closest rival Brenda Kunda getting seven votes.

  1. How do we keep voting for failures to continue in office?

    This man Kamanga has failed in all aspects of football in Zambia.

    I pray this is not a sign of things to come in August this year.

  2. Zambians are regressive. What has Kamanga accomplished? The team is almost eliminated from AFCON. Zambians seem to reward incompetence.

  3. Congratulations the new FAZ Executive. Please allow me to make few comments. 1. We need to check why we have good skills at the junior levels, U20 U17 etc. and not at National team level.
    2. We need to work with ministry of Education and see how we can promote football in Schools. Football is not for grade 7 drop outs only. In olden days Zambia Schools team was constituted of grades 10 to 12.
    3. I think FAZ should arrange for motivational speakers to national team players (subsequently at clubs) As you know an educated mind will have high expectations and the edge to hard.
    4. Without streamlining some of these points we will be cropping in the wilderness.
    5. In long term planning FAZ should consider Sponsoring Zambians with the right education and on merit to go train as National…

  4. There’s something funny with these results. I cannot understand that Lunga Mandona who got zero votes could not have voted for himself??
