Speaking in an interview with Diamond Sports, Mawoni says the benefits of this project will go towards the implementation of policies by the Ministry of Sport for Youth Development and Empowerment.

He adds that this is the first of many projects ahead, with a possibility of inviting a renowned tennis player next year.

Meanwhile, Chipolopolo Legends Coach Kalusha Bwalya, who was speaking after Tuesday’s training session, is impressed with the standard of players, saying they have been keeping themselves in good shape.

The Match which is expected to draw over 40 million viewers from around the world on various platforms will be held at the National Heroes Stadium in Lusaka, Zambia.[Diamond TV]

  1. Thats our tax payer’s money being used to pay for those tickets! Ehere is opposition to cry “corruption”? So called major opposition is quiet because Kalusha’s wife’s company is the one that will go laughing all the way to the bank and he us from their preferred region. If the owners of the company marketing this event were from Southern or Western the opposition would have been shouting from the mountain top; it would have been the subject of some priest’s sermon .

  2. @Ndine you missed the point. It say 5,000, and NOT K5,000 per your thinking. Students will buy these tickets. Thus putting money into Government coffers
