Chiyangwa mourns 8 people who died in a stampede before a football match in Malawi

In a condolence message posted on ZIFA’s website, the mother governing body’s president Philip Chiyangwa paid his condolences to Malawi over the loss of 8 people that died as a result of a stampede before the start of a match.

Part of Chiyangwa’s condolence message reads:

It is a saddening incident that cuts deep into our hearts and souls, and the very soul of the game that such a tragedy has claimed so many lives, including those of seven children.
During this difficult period, we wourn with the people of Malawi and pray that they will find comfort in the hands of the Lord. We also pray for a speedy recovery of the injured.
The said irony of it is that what should have been a joyous day of celebration of Uhuru, marking their 53rd Independence Anniversary, ended in tragedy.
