Atfer being dribbled of the 2013 award bcoz of kalijo,”Sate Sate”proved a genius to win a fourth award in three seasons.
Big up “Sate Sate”.
well said . the young boy was robbed especially last year
Sate Sate winning the footballer of the year award is a huge indictment on Zambian football. It shows that Zambian football is in ICU and in need of resuscitation. It is wonderful for him to be declared king of the small pond that is Zambian football, but the huge sea of Afcon exposed him as an ordinary player. Congratulations to him nevertheless. He needs to improve massively to convince some of us.
Jealous people never appreciate!Sate sate worked hard and he deserves respect.
For me sate is not National team material the lad failed to perform at AFCON .
@Discipline, unfortunately the article is talking about Sate being footballer of the year looking at his performance in the last year. $ awards in three seasons is no mean achievement. Some of us have been working for many years and are yet to receive even an award for employee of the week.
Congrats to Ronald Kampamba also known as Sate Sate,former Nkana striker
