HEREDITARY HEART CONDITION FORCES Enock Mwepu TO END CAREER

Enock Mwepu has been forced to end his playing career following the diagnosis of a hereditary heart condition.

The condition, which can worsen over time, would put Enock at an extremely high risk of suffering a potentially fatal cardiac event, if he were to continue playing competitive football.

Club chairman Tony Bloom said, “We are all absolutely devastated for Enock. He and his family have had a traumatic few weeks and while we are just thankful he has come through that period, he has seen such a promising career cut short at such a young age.

“As a club we will give him all the love, help and support we possibly can to make a full recovery, and then as he decides on the next steps in his life.”

Head coach Roberto De Zerbi added, “I am so sorry for Enock. Before I arrived I looked at all the squad, and he was a player I was so excited and looking forward to working with. We will do everything we can to help him.”

Head of Medicine and Performance, Adam Brett explained, “It is a terrible blow for Enock, but he has to put his health and his family first and this is the right choice, however difficult it is to quit the game he loves.”

Enock was taken ill while on a flight to join up with Zambia during the international break and after a period in hospital in Mali he returned to Brighton to undergo further cardiac tests and ongoing care.

These tests have concluded that his illness is due to a hereditary cardiac condition, which manifests later in life and was not previously evident on regular cardiac screening. Sadly this can be exacerbated by playing sport so Enock has been advised that the only option, for the sake of his own safety, is for him to stop playing football.

Adam continued, “Of course, given this is Enock’s career and a decision which can’t be taken lightly we have taken our time to be as thorough as possible, completed advanced cardiac investigations and collaborated with clinical experts to gain the best second opinions for Enock.

“We will be helping him make sure the condition is managed with the appropriate treatment for him to otherwise live a long and healthy life.’”

Beeline makes progress to be Zambia’s 4 mobile operator

- Mutati says Government to announce the progress soon

TECHNOLOGY and Science Minister, Felix Mutati has said the Zambia Information and Communications Technology Authority (ZICTA) will soon make an announcement on progress towards operationalization of a 4th mobile operator in the country.

In February last year, ZICTA awarded a 4th mobile licence to Beeline Telecoms Limited.

Beeline Telecoms Limited was to commence operations within six months but asked for an extension to procure and install some equipment.

Beeline Telecoms Limited is the second company to be awarded a license for a 4th mobile operator after U*I Zambia failed to commence operations by March 3, 2019 which was the final deadline issued by the authority notwithstanding two earlier deadline extensions, the first being November 30, 2019 and the second May 30, 2020.

But Mr Mutati in a statement has clarified that ZICTA is not struggling with a 4th mobile operator as he was confident that soon, the authority would make an announcement in terms of progress towards having the first call from the operator awarded a license.

Mr Mutati also clarified that ZICTA's role is regulation, policy and ensuring that any operator complies with the regulations and look at the commitments given by the 4th mobile operator as well as listen to them if they have challenges to meet particular deadlines.

"The role that ZICTA has played is to say, you have applied for a fourth license and these are the boxes that you need to tick. The regulation does provide that ZICTA can look at the commitments that have been given by the 4th mobile operator and listen to them if they have challenges to try and meet particular deadlines and whether those challenges they are facing are reasonable in the opinion of ZICTA and whether they do not violate regulations" Mr Mutati said.

The minister said ZICTA as a regulator can then take appropriate decisions but as it stands, the authority is not struggling as they are just enforcing regulations.

"I'm sure pretty soon they are going to make an announcement in terms of the journey to the first phone call from the 4th mobile operator" he said.

CAF has officially written to the Football Association of Zambia (FAZ) informing them that the country will only have two envoys in the 2022-2023 CAF season instead of four.

https://www.facebook.com/1512708075643372/posts/3192049471042549/?d=n

According to a statement released by FAZ Communications Manager Sydney Mungala,CAF has formally notified its membership on the revised continental slots that will see 12 countries eligible to field four teams comprising two in the CAF Champions League and the same number in Confederation Cup.

This means that Zambia will be represented by Super League champions Red Arrows in the Champions League while Zesco United,who finished second will be the flag carries in the Confederation Cup.

Last season Zambia have four teams in CAF competitions two in each in the CAF champions League and CAF Confederation Cup.

Zesco United and Zanaco were in the Champions League while Kabwe Warriors and Arrows were in the Confederation Cup.

However the dismal performances by Zambian teams in the last few season has costed the country the two slots.

FAZ General secretary Adrian Kasahala described the development as a sad for Zambian football but also a call for Zambian clubs to step up their performances in CAF competitions.

“We wish to inform our football family of the communique from CAF that the inter-club competitions representation has been revised after a four-year cycle. Zambia will have two clubs in CAF competitions for the 2023 season.

“The development is regrettable but also a wake-up call to our clubs to work extra hard to reclaim their respectable status on the continent,” Kashala said.

He said clubs needs to pull up their socks up and ensure that the representatives do better when they win the right to fly the national flag on the continent.

The 12 highest ranked countries that will field four teams include Algeria, Angola, Congo DR, Egypt, Guinea, Libya, Morocco, Nigeria, South Africa, Sudan, Tanzania, and Tunisia.

CAF has set September 9-11 for the preliminary round matches of the 2022 season while return legs will be on September 16-18. The second round will run from October 7-9 for the first legs with return fixtures on October 14-16.
