A dark cloud hangs over midfielder Rainford Kalaba’s late departure to join the Zambia national team in Yemen after police charge him with causing death by dangerous driving.
Kalaba is due to leave for Yemen to join the team on Wednesday ahead of this weekend’s friendly against that country but has been ordered first to report to police in Ndola.
This follows the death of a Wilfred Sakala of Ndola rural who died on Monday from injuries sustained after his car and Kalaba’s vehicle collided on August 22 near Masangano on the Ndola-Kapiri Mposhi road.
Kalaba returned back in Zambia on Monday after attending trials at TP Mazembe in DR Congo with second choice goalkeeper Kalililo Kakonje.
The midfielder together with Kakonje are two of three regular Zambia players in the 20-man team comprising mostly of 17-home based players called up for the game against Yemen.
The third player, Noah Chivuta has been ruled out after signing a contract on Monday with Free State Stars of South Africa where he will linkup with his compatriot and Zambia first choice goalkeeper Kennedy Mweene.

MHSRP- speeding in our country is another problem, umwangashi is another, cars also are not serviced- SEAT BELTS- must be used too, anyway, MHSRP.
Wecipuba we #1. Walitumpa pamo naba …
No one is above the law. this boy never bothered to visit sakala in hospital.what a shame!
what were his injuries again?
When the Post said this boy was indisciplined and needed to carefully evaluate his actions, a lot of you characters accused them of baring a grudge against him, now look what has happened.
If he was in Egypt, probabably this would not have happened. What a waste talent… That is the major problem in Zambian, we have talented, sportspersons, economist, politicians, and so forth. But, once they just test what it is to have money… hell break loose and this leads to their down fall. AM ALWAYS READY TO FACE THE CONSIQUENCES OF EACH OF MY SINGLE DECISINS!!!
ARE YOU?

@ MUTOMBELA KUCHULU and @ iye, eish gentlrmen please, some of us are not accustomed to insulting and considering this is a public site, please bear with us the public. LT do something bout these comments, kids read this site as well.
insults shows how the capacity of ur brain is…….
wats the point of insulting parents who dont knw anything, lets grow guys, do u need drums 4 u to know that u have gown??????????? learn to grow, lets just discus about the football
#1 should be stopped from blogging,we are not here to insult but to reason on matters affecting Zambians and Zambia as a country ,if he can’t reason let him go to hell.
Kalaba should still be supported in his career and be advised to behave like a Public figure.As for the Accident,it can be caused by any body regardless of the experience in driving and he wakeup to go and cause an accident.
# 1 & 8 you are the same person and that shows how you think, i believe your parents are not even proud of u. what a shame ….
Anyone know what has happened to Mbesuma?
Too bad for young kalaba though i believe accidents can happen to anyone, dont these chaps have advisors?. A warning to current crop on zambian players, learn somethin from your brother ‘wawa’ who neva invested when he was in saudi. he’s spending time hamering shakers and tujilijili.
Comrades lets be modest,insults are not health.# 8 pliz withdraw that statement,mr sata is a very senior citize and even if you dont like him i dont expect you to bring his name into desiripute.i am PF but i cant go to that extent of insulting Mr Rupiah Banda,my grand father.lets post sensible things and if we dont have anything to say lets learn to keep quite.
the issue here is kalaba not mr sata or mr banda.
cheers
Kaponyeni mundende………………………………………..

People forget that anyone can cause an accident. he is only human leave him alone and let the law take its course, ah ah.
