According to the statement released today by FAM outlined that Considering the sorrowful atmosphere as the result of the tragic passing of the State Vice President, Right Honorable Dr. Saulos Klaus Chilima and eight others and the subsequent 21-day mourning period declared by the government, FAM highly considered it insensitive to proceed with our preparations and subsequent participation in the championship.
