Twenty members of the Chipolopolo squad were involved in a tragic plane crash over two decades ago, and the Zambian legend penned a tribute to them
Kalusha Bwalya has paid a moving tribute to the Zambia legends who passed away 27 years ago.
The Chipolopolo team who were heading to honour a Fifa World Cup qualifier against Senegal perished as their aircraft crashed into the Atlantic Ocean shortly after take-off.
None of the 25 passengers and five crew members survived the ill-fated incident on April 27, 1993.
And Bwalya who led the surviving members of the Zambian national team took to social media to pay tribute to his ‘gallant’ teammates.
