Funeral arrangements remain sketchy. But former SULOM President, Tiya Somba Banda, has described Chibowa’s demise as a loss to Malawian Football.
He says Chibowa will be remembered for his n uncountable contributions to the league.
“Chibowa was the one who brought TNM to Malawi football. So, when you look at the league’s sponsorship, we will always remember him,” adds Banda.
Chibowa is also the brains behind the rebranding of Super League Association of Malawi-SULAM to SULOM.
