“You all have heard the sad news that has befallen our camp, all I can ask is that you put in your level best and make your friends happy, do what they would have done” Janza said.
Yesterday, three National Soccer Team players were injured in a road accident in Kabwe which left three people dead. Nyambe Mulenga, Changwe Kalale and Satchmo Chakawa were travelling from Ndola to Lusaka when their vehicle collided with a Pajero in Kabwe.

Kalale was this afternoon transferred from Kabwe to Lusaka’s University Tea
ching Hospital where he is expected to undergo further medical examinations.
Green Eagles goalkeeper, Chakawa has remained at Kabwe General Hospital and is said to be doing well, according to Chipolopolo Team Doctor Joseph Kabungo.
