Neglected: Solwezi Independence Stadium Sparks Citizen Outrage

Concerned citizens have raised their voices and are seeking answers from the Football Association of Zambia (FAZ) on the reasons for the stadium’s poor condition.

Upon visiting the stadium, it was found that the facility is not being maintained and is in need of significant repair. The citizens of Solwezi are outraged that a FIFA-funded project has been neglected and are demanding that FAZ provide an explanation for the stadium’s current state.
