Former Malawi Netball Queens star, Emma Mdzagada, has been admitted to Malamulo Hospital in Makwasa, Thyolo District.<\/p>\n
The former MTL Queens player, who was a darling to many at her peak, has been suffering from leg pains since 2009.<\/p>\n
Mdzagada\u2019s sister, Jessica Mtekama, confirmed Tuesday that the former star shooter was hospitalised.<\/p>\n
Comedian Michael Usi, popularly known as Manganya, facilitated Mdzagada\u2019s travel to Malamulo.<\/p>\n
\u201cI do not want to say much but I visited her and her condition forced me to arrange for an ambulance for her. It is not about me but she needs urgent treatment,\u201d Usi said.<\/p>\n
Mtekama said she was thankful to Manganya for the support.<\/p>\n
\u201cMr Usi has made it possible for Emma to come here after she saw her condition,\u201d Mtekama said.<\/p>\n
\u201cAs I have always said, Emma needs urgent medical attention. We would like to thank all those who have come up to help.\u201d<\/p>\n
Minister of Labour, Youth, Sports and Manpower Development, Henry Mussa, and many well-wishers have supported Mdzagada.<\/p>\n
As we went to press Tuesday, Mtekama said Mdzagada was undergoing an operation over a bone infection.<\/p>\n
Some quarters recently hit at the Netball Association of Malawi (Nam) and the government for failing to look into the welfare of players.<\/p>\n
Concerned with players\u2019 welfare, Football Association of Malawi formed the Players Association of Malawi.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
