Rangers disown FAZ constitution amendment proposal

Nchanga Rangers executive committee has stated that there was no consensus from the club to put up a proposal to amend the FAZ constitution with regard to the election of the president.

A statement by club chairman Yoram Kapai states that the club acknowledges that vice chairman Blackwell Siwale floated the proposal but did this without consulting the executive committee.

However, the club has decided not to act on the proposal but to only take internal corrective measures.

FULL STATEMENT FROM NRFC

Proposal to amend the FAZ constitution attributed to Nchanga Rangers
Press Release

CHINGOLA, 26th March, 2015.
Nchanga Rangers Football Club (NRFC) wishes to acknowledge the publication of a statement attributed to its vice chairman Mr Blackwell Siwale in the media recently as regards proposal to amend the Football Association of Zambia (FAZ) constitution.

Notwithstanding that Mr Siwale issued the statement in question, the club would like to clarify that there was no consensus in coming up with such a decision – for NRFC to float the proposal for the amendments to the FAZ constitution.

The club held an emergency executive committee meeting chaired by the Chairman Yoram Kapai with Mr Siwale and Mr Emmanuel Simbeye, the Hon. Secretary, in attendance. Both officials have accepted that they erred to author and sign such a proposal without full approval of the executive committee.

However, for purposes of serenity within the football family, NRFC will leave the proposal to be decided by the FAZ AGM.

Meanwhile, internal corrective measures have been instituted to avoid a repeat of similar situations in future.

  1. This is a classic example of not thinking a process through. The only thing that made them disown this was the reaction this bone headed proposal received. Think before you act!

  2. The Chairman too is dull as the two erring ex coms should have been suspended and was not aware of the happenings ….Nchanga Rangers FC has jockers : Kapai clue less leader about football , Siwale self proclaimed President, Jimmy Chongo African Technologist, ……That’s why the attendance by Fans at Gabitas is so low..typical vote of no confidence…Also someone need to investigate the transfer Bornwell to Ama Zion..

  3. Corruption of clubs will not take FAZ ANYWHERE as they seek to push their evil desires.Zambians are more alert than the CAF WHICH WAS BULLDOZED BY THE CORRUPT CAF LEADERSHIP. SORRY GUYS TRY NEXT DOOR. This suggestion should be shot down with the contempt it deserve.

  4. Ba Positive Thinking-chisungufye nalufyenye otherwise i meant to say exactly what you were saying.

    Bane Zamfoot should be proud to have produced Spaks (overlooking Club Licencing) and now Dinamo (now a Power Dynamos Executive Committee Member-I being a Kalampa, will no longer be looking at Power 90 as rivals but stakeholders). Not forgetting Chairmanizo a FAZ Executive member and overlooking Youth Development and Ba Patrick Mwanza ku Blackpool right?

    With stalwarts like Rok etc this site teaches us something. For me even divergent views fro john, Mulenga Pulu, etc i do respect and always appreciate as that’s what democracy is all about

  5. The sooner that people realise that the Kalusha Bwalya led DISGRACED FAZ executive is a bunch of CRIMINALS the better for everyone. These characters bribed those desperate and disgruntled two officials at Nchanga Rangers. We can not allow this to continue. DICTATOR KALUSHA BWALYA has to be STOPPED. Enough is enough! He have taken our football to the DOGS. Football is this country is DEAD!!!

    • Kay Hummer you are talking sense. Kalusha Bwalya is an idiot period. Just look at this way GRZ had to pay Bonetti or who ever he is and the same FAZ/GRZ zombies failed to organise proper preparation matches for U17/20

      The dogs are not serious period and I for one is just tired, from now onwards nisele chabe, so ba fikala nala banwina lelo. Ba she ma bolo atase. Bushe in Zed we have accept anything well knowing it is crap. IDIOTS

    • Thank you Kay, I have been preach on how corrupt Kalu has been at Faz, but some idiots have attacked me on this site, now everyone realizes that Kalu’s $h!t stinks too! Wake up people, as for Kalu, his arrogance and corruption is about to catch up with him. Time is up.

  6. At the time i said sack Bonetti and i stand by that because he was not going to take us far in the competition. So gvernment now pays off Bonetti and i think it is ok given the mess with Bonetti being chosen in the first place. Yes government can help FAZ in this matter, it was worth it for us to win Afcon. As to why FAZ has no funds of its own at this moment and none to pay Patrice Beaumelle, that is squarly on FAZ! Why Kalu was saying Zambia is not like Zimbabwe and somehow exempt from a ban. he must be crazy, Zambia is no better than Zimbabwe really. Does Kalu have no shame.

    The article on the bbc african football does not read well for Zambia.

  7. He added that he hoped the government would also settle salary arrears owed to Patrice Beaumelle, another former Chipolopolo coach who has been threatening to report the matter to Fifa. That is Kasengele for you saying now my question is , is Tembwe local general secretary who can only give news to our local media and Kasengele gives to medias like BBC? Mother Zambia you have been left naked even an 11 year old boy can see your nakedness , what a shame.
