Zambia Premier League side,Nkana Football Club's stadium ban concluded on November 12, culminating with the Kitwe Derby as their final game in exile. The ban resulted from their fans' unruly behavior last season, leading the FAZ Disciplinary Committee to mandate the club to relocate home matches 60 kilometers away from their stadium for three months. Having served their ban, Nkana is set to travel to Ndola next weekend for a match against ZESCO United. Ian Bakala expressed relief that the team's stay in Lusaka has ended, eagerly anticipating the return to Nkana Stadium in Kitwe for their home matches. The prospect of going back home is seen as an advantage, providing Nkana with the comfort of playing on their familiar turf. Despite the upcoming matches being behind closed doors until February, Bakala remains optimistic about the team's performance, expressing confidence that they will pick up momentum on home ground. Bakala highlighted the team's improvement since he assumed leadership, acknowledging the journey of progress despite facing inconsistent results.
