The Football Association of Malawi President Walter Nyamilandu Manda has led the football fraternity in mourning the the passing on of former Super League of Malawi (SULOM) president Henry Chibowa fondly known as “Kaka”.

Chibowa died on Tuesday morning at Mwaiwathu Hospital.

Nyamilandu Manda said : “We have lost a great leader who played a tremendous role in the formation of the Super League to be such a respected and highly entertaining league.

“Further to that, he was also very instrumental in bailing out the Super League by securing sponsorship with TNM when it was on the verge of extinction.

“We can not talk about the glory of the Super League without attributing its success to late Henry Kaka Chibowa.

“I had the privilege of working with such a passionate, committed, and astute leader who had the foresight of transforming Malawi football.

“He will forever remain a legend of Malawi football . May His Soul Rest In Peace,”said Nyamilandu Manda.

The funeral programme will be announced later.
