  1. But ka title of the article leaves alot to be desired. Its more of Nyambe to miss AFCON15 than people in an accident. Yes we need him in the AFCON15 team but more a humane title especially that one person is dead is just “Nyambe Mulenga involved in a RTA” Thereafter, you can talk about possibility of him missing AFCON due to his injuries. Wishing him a quick recovery.

  3. Congratulations u20 team for the gold obtained at the cosafa tournament. The future of Zambian soccer seem to be bright again after a long drought wait after the crop of u20 of 2007

  4. My condolences to families who lost loved ones in this accident.

    I must question road safety regulations, do Zambians wear seat belts? The deaths we have in football alone is shocking, i dread to think of the namount outside of football.
