Second Vice President Right Honourable Enock Kanzingeni Chihana congratulates the Scorchers:

The Cinderella Story Continues in Rabat

I join His Excellency President Professor Arthur Peter Mutharika and Her Excellency Madame Gertrude Mutharika on congratulating the Scorchers for defying the odds and achieving surprising victories against the women football superpowers such as Nigeria, Egypt , Algeria and others.

What we are witnessing from Rabat is not accidental. It tells the nation one story: That as a nation, we have betrayed these girls for so long, and today they have decided to prove the nation wrong that they deserve topnotch attention in pursuit of their dreams and aspirations.

Girls, your strength lies in your hard work, courage, solidarity and team spirit.

All your games you have played, you have won with panache, beautiful and very important wins against expert teams full of resources at their disposal. Through your talent, courage and ardour in defending the flag of your beloved nation, you have not only thrilled the nation but brought unity and solidarity as well.
