The football team was a source of pride.
They were known as Cheplo-Polo, which is a copper bullet.
It was a title taken from the Zambia industry and the team’s attacking and aggressive style.
The team had just returned to Morrisso in the Africa Cup of Nations qualifiers.

When Zambia local players moved to the airport outside the capital Lusaka to board the plane, Patrick Kangua, a member of the National Election Commission, met with them.
He has told midfielder Andrew Timbo that they don’t need to travel. They fell from the squad.
pride has suffered and the hot words have been exchanged on the pave.
It was a standard election decision, but on this day, who lives and who will die.
Those who entered the ship faced a terrible journey program. Buffalo had planned to shout down the Republic of Congo, Gabon and the Ivory Coast before reaching Dakar, Senegal.
In reality, he could never be outside Gabon.
The Zambia government has never published the report for what happened to the trip.
In 2003, however, Gabon officials announced that the left hand engine had stopped working almost immediately after its rise from the Liberville capital.
The pilot, who was tired of the team’s flight from Morris a day earlier, mistakenly closed the right-hand engine.
The heavy plane, suddenly without strength and lifting, is several hundred meters away from the Gabone coast, all 30 people on the ship crashed into the sea in the sea.
In the Netherlands, Bolia, forgotten his run, saw the news that he knew he was breaking on television.

In the meantime, Bolia arrived in Lusaka, where the reality sank there.
“We went to take the bodies, and, one by one, they took the coffins out of a plane to move to the stadium,” he said.
“It’s when I realized I didn’t see the team – the team I had arrived with on the same plane a few months ago – again.
On May 2, 1993, more than 100,000 Zambi came to the Independence Stadium, where Zambia was holding a funeral at home.
Most of those on the streets remain on the streets, because the stadium’s ability was only 35,000 people.
After fully monitoring the night and a memorial service, the players are enthusiastically expressed in the graves.
Each grave with a tree in front of a memorable garden called the donkey of the champions, 100 meters north of the stadium.
