This is a second stint for Lwandamina as coached 27-time Tanzania Mainland champions Yanga SC from 2016-2017, helping them win the league tithe before leaving to rejoin Zesco United where he served from 2018 to September 2020.
The move is however a shock one as it comes barely two weeks after Super League side Prison Leopards announced his appointment as technical director.
Lwandamina has also previously coached other Zambia Super League sides like Kabwe Warriors, Grèen Buffaloes, and Red Arrows.
