Kalusha Honored In Senegal
Football Association of Zambia President Kalusha Bwalya has been accorded the Pilgrim award by the Island City of Goree in Senegal. The honour was confired to Kalusha yesterday in recognition of his contribution to the game of football in Zambia, Africa and the entire world.
Speaking at a brief ceremony held at the Civic authorities building, Mayor, Augustione Senghor said the Island City has followed with keen interest the illustrious career of Kalusha Bwalya who in 1988 was voted African Footballer of the year.
“We are honoured to have such a distinguished Footballer on our Island. Every soccer loving Senegalese knows about Kalusha and remembers all that you have achieved. On behalf of this city and indeed on my own behalf I honour you with the Highest accolade that this historical Island can offer.You are now our Ambassador and a citizen of Goree” Senhgor concluded.
Other people that have been given this award include current United States of America President Barrack Obama former United States President George Bush and late Pope John Paul the second.
Goree Island also known as the Point of No return was a Slave Trading port from which over twenty millions Slaves were shipped into the Americas. To this date the Island has ancient buildings from which the illegal trade was conducted during one of the darkest periods in human history. UNICEF has since declared the island a world heritage site.
Kalusha is in Senegal as Vice Chairperson of the Organising Committe of CAF U23 championships currently going on in the Senegalese towns of Dakar and M’Bour.

Kalusha has outlived his usefullness. We thank him for his contribution but it is time this man took a backward step and instead mentored the next future footabll leaders. Kalusha has gone on to autocractically remain at the helm of FAZ like it is his personal to order company. It is this pf mentality that he has

I have just said that kalusha has. Can’t you read. Sport is a shortlived career which means that some one of kalusha age should now be mentoring young stars. The same doesn’t apply to politics where hh is still yet to rule. Common sense bane

Walasa “Observer” This new Educated Zambian is just arrogant and has nothing to offer on this forum. Someone said “No matter how much you water concrete, you will never grow a garden.” This UPND cadre will never heed to any wise advise on this forum. (Mumutwe wakwe mwaba ifishololo, walifwasa!)
