Southern Region Pool League Chairperson, Dave Mallunga, has resigned, claiming that the sport has been turned into a political arena.<\/p>\n
In his resignation letter dated April 18, 2017, Mallunga hit at Malawi Pool Association (Mapa) for allegedly being biased when dealing with its affiliates.<\/p>\n
\u201cIt is with deep regret that I tender my resignation [letter] as Chairman of the Southern Region Pool League with immediate effect,\u201d he wrote.<\/p>\n
\u201cMapa is a mother body which has to take interests, in its affiliates without bias or personal vendettas.\u201d<\/p>\n
Mallunga did not go into specifics but vowed to spill the beans over Mapa\u2019s alleged poor administration.<\/p>\n
He added that there were issues which he raised with Mapa but the mother body neither acknowledged nor responded.<\/p>\n
\u201cI have done this for the past six months. This is a confirmation that either the issues are not important or your secretariat feels otherwise. I have copies of these [letters]. I wish you all the best as you prepare for elections and new office bearers for the regions,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n
Mapa President, Chikondi Mbewe, confirmed receiving Mallunga\u2019s resignation letter, saying the association will not push him to rescind his decision.<\/p>\n
\u201cThis is a voluntary position and he is free to step down. We thank him for the service he rendered to the sport,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
