The government has moved to suspend the initial plan that allowed the return of Zambians to football stadia in November.
Initially, the Zambians had been banned from the stadium due to the emergence of the coronavirus but after broad deliberations between the Ministry of Health and Football Association of Zambia (FAZ), the ban was lifted in November.
But a recent spike of the coronavirus cases has forced the government to set aside the order and ban stadium attendance again.
