Am i the only one who has observed something wrong with our kit. How on earth can we put on Adidas and our orange socks is Nike. Topical Kamanga! Unless things have changed.
Wesu nandibo, kamanga is a failure every were he goes but some bloggers here can’t see this try to find out the back ground of this man you will be shocked.before you elect someone to be the leader of an organisation, first you need to look at his achievements what has he achieved in that particular field?then you will be able to choose a good leader. the bible says any one who failed to control his house can’t be a leader same with football administration how can you elect someone to be FAZ presdent who failed to lead a club like kabwa warriors the records are there to see when kamanga was a chairman at kabwa warriors the team was performing very bad and there were even demoted to division one and yet you elect such a person to be our FAZ presdent and you expect better things impossible my dear
