FAZ to deal with ‘suspended’ Kazala

FAZ president Andrew Kamanga says Football House will administratively deal with his vice Richard Kazala.

Kazala, who is serving a suspension alongside Blackwell Siwale for the alleged misappropriation of K150,000 meant for match tickets, has formed a WhatsApp group called ‘We Love Football’ where he has added Kamanga and is ridiculing him.

On the group, Kazala has threatened to deal with Kamanga if he does not clear him of the alleged misappropriation of funds charge and has gone on to declare himself the legitimate FAZ president, urging councillors to oust Kamanga at next year’s annual general meeting.

Kamanga has exited the group several times but Kazala has continued to add him.

“Mr Kamanga Ndanga Andrew, this line is paid for by MTN by virtue of your being president, this line belongs to the councillors, it’s not your personal property therefore I am adding you here. Answer questions, don’t run away from reality,” Kazala posted when Kamanga asked him not to add him to the group anymore.
But in an interview, Kamanga said he would not comment on the matter but instead deal with Kazala administratively.

“I don’t want to be drawn into this mud, I have no comment to make. FAZ will deal with him administratively. As far as I am concerned, he is suspended,” said Kamanga.

Earlier in the week Richard Kazala declared himself the ‘legitimate’ president of the association.
Kazala, who was suspended by FAZ president Andrew Kamanga alongside committee member Blackwell Siwale for allegedly misappropriating K150,000 ticket money, has created a WhatsApp group called ‘We love football’ where he has also added Kamanga .
In his postings, Kazala urged FAZ councillors to oust Kamanga at the next annual general meeting, referring to him as a “wrong unlicensed driver”.

“FAZ family, it’s time to raise (sic), it’s not what we promised you when we campaigned, I still maintain to implement my promises during the run up to March 20th, 2015, unfortunately we have a wrong unlicensed driver. Our bus keeps crushing (sic); new driver required, PSV/ DG driver, careful driver accommodating driver Richard Kazala,” reads one of the posts on the group.

“Gentleman. My Friend Ndanga is sleeping so I shall spare him, he has a lot of responses, I hope I find them when I wake up. Goodnite football family, this is your legitimate FAZ president Richard Kazala signing out. Please don’t exit.”

He later added a contact to the group, urging him oust Kamanga at the AGM.

“Brother Elvis. Welcome Airbone, Goodbye Andrew Ndanga Kamanga. Voice out here and be ready to exit him at the coming AGM,” Kazala posted.

Kamanga later asked Kazala to remove him from the group, but Kazala responded: “My brother, look at how you have painted me and Mr Siwale black in the eyes of the public. Resolve this as president or you won’t like the end as now my muscle is pumping. I have cherished your leadership and respected you all along. Enough is enough…My Friend Andrew Ndanga Kamanga FAZ president, I challenge you to Sonta Apo Wabomba 10 months in office. Sela Tubombeko.”

  1. Eish, this man is childish. This doesn’t seem like a sane human being to me. Someone needs to talk some sense into him. Surely as a person who was serving as Vice President, there should be some decorum and letting the investigation occur. How do you come back from this?

  2. Kazala is coward punk, he can show off his wacky guns all he wants, but that does not take away the fact that he is a crook, wish that boy in the photo would accidentally smoke him if that weapon loaded. Nigga is a coward that is why he is trying to intimidate Kamanga with all those gay a$$ photos of guns, that’s what punks do. What a b!tch.

  3. I told some people that they is too much in fighting in FAZ but some people were saying no kamanga is on the right track,before you condemn kazala find out what happen between the two try to look at this issue on both angles instead of talking about the guns that kazala has

  4. Those corruption allegations that you are talking about he was cleared by the anti corruption commission so as far as the zambian law is concern kazala is innocent unless they is something that kamanga wants from him,infact what is that ka 150000 to kazala the man is very Rich he has so many companies infact he can’t steal that money zamfoot why are you not reporting the corrupt malpractice by kamanga you are only reporting the allergations of kazala,kamanga is also under investigations about corruption

  5. @ Undefeated Guru……if K150000 is peanuts to Kazala where is the money being kept and for what purpose? Are u so daft and cant realise the loot was meant to be chewed by committee members, those siding with Kazala?! For the first time FAZ has a President we can trust.

  6. SLIM you should not speak things that you don’t know KAZALA was cleared by the ACC so as far as the zambian law is concern he is innocent the problem with you zambian people you like speaking what you don’t know.if I may ask you a question what has you kamanga achieved in his life as the football administrate?compare the achievement of the two you will able to see that kazala is 100 times better than kamanga

  7. Me in was thinking we have a matured president who will let the law take its course unlike forming a whatsapp group where no justice can be found but embarrassment and ridicule. shame to Zambian football

  8. Ama coloureds awe sure this guy was a cabinet minister at one time and he is a ceo of a very prosperous company but this photo poses mmmmmmmm mufontini samana umu guys

  9. Whistle blower(Kamanga) says, “Money has been embezzled by Kazala and friends.” Naturally the public are expected to say, ” Bring back our money you thief.” NO. The thief(Kazala) says, “Kamanga is a failure and must be ousted and replaced by me.” The Faz committee members in support of the thief(Kazala) say, ” Kamanga did not follow procedure therefore matter is null and void.” ARE they telling us K150000 is not important anymore and the Faz president made a boob to announce to the public!!!

  10. I know Kazala and those people getting money from him especially councillors must be careful. If his attempts to oust Kamanga fails then you will be in hot soup.Ask Chingola people especially Nchanga constituency how he went round demanding the return of his gifts which he gave them,those who failed were stoned using catapults.And he was chased from Nchanga Rugby club bcoz of the same behavior. Then went to Rangers where he terrorised the old officials,and gave himself a name as president not chai

  11. I held Mr kazala in high esteem up until now, little did I know that he is very childish. am also disappointed in those supporting thug mentality in him. the behavior he has portrayed doesn’t suit what he dreams “being an Fa president”
    but I think their is an invisible hand trying to fight kamanga that’s why for the first time I saw the anti corruption doing a quick work on kazala, before we know it they had already declared him innocent and quickly jumps on kamanga. what a shame. how come plot one said they realized the money which never reached the coffers and yet anti corruption says he is innocent????

    • You are right in every way. Edger Lungu and Kalu are that invisible hand you are talking about. Lungu is corrupt and as such anyone that exposes those that are as corrupt as Edger are turned into enemies. As for Kalu, we all know, so no need to talk more. What @The Undefeated Guru is supporting is a typical nonsense that clueless or just corrupt people always do. They hate it when they are exposed of their garbage. Kazala is worhtless and so are those aiding his nonsense. He needs to be kick out of FAZ. Anyone that has access to that nonsense WhatsApp group?

  12. with all the respect in this world i give to kamanga, this battle between kamanga and kazala has brouhgt something out us as football lovers should not ignore , kamanga suspended the duo without following the right procedure he reported them to ACC which found no case against the two gentleman, but why is he still insisting that they exculpate themselves when he reported them to ACC which ended up clearing them of any corrupt allegations, kamanga and his team should iron out these differences before they embarrass the football family

  13. The problem with you people is that you are blindly supporting kamanga without leading between the line.we have the anti corruption commission and the zambian police so if you have evidence against kalu and kazala repoet them.ok if I’m defending corruption why are you quiety.Over kamanga because he is also under investigation of corruption
