We have received quiet a lot of messages from a number of you followers and readers regarding the captaincy of the Zambia National Soccer Team, the Chipolopolo. This follows some write-ups that have done rounds on Facebook.
Unfortunately those individually generated postings alleging there were changes and claiming that Stoppila Sunzu had been appointed captain are false. They are mere fabrications and lies that have no foundation and must be set aside.
The coach Patrice Beaumelle, Team Manager Lusekelo Kamwambi and FAZ communications manager Nkweto Tembwe have all stated that they “do want to waste time” commenting on irrelevant and insignificant rumours. They assert that any changes now or in the future would be communicated accordingly.
The set-up has not changed and remains Chris Katongo as skipper deputised by Kennedy Mweene who has worn the arm-band a number of times. No one has been secretly appointed to be captain in future, Stoppila Sunzu for that matter.
“If there is any change at the national team, we can’t treat it as secret or confide in any one individual or revert to secrecy of sources,” Football House said.

Sunzu is an excellent player. He is however too quiet to make a good captain.

Sunzu can hardly express himself in English, this can be a disaster especially if he was to be interviewed by non zambians. For Christopher katongo he has slightly improved in English but too many mistakes gramatically.

Hey I know this is off topic but I was wondering if you knew of any widgets I could add

I’ve been looking for a plug-in like this for
quite some time and was hoping maybe you would have
some experience with something like this. Please let me know if you run into anything.
I truly enjoy reading your blog and I look forward to your new updates.
