"This is a huge plus for women’s football in Zambia and shows tremendous growth in our game"
Bruce Mwape is a Zambian football coach.
"The accusers have always hidden under the guise of social media and have never identified any victim in this entire episode. I have always been ready to cooperate with any investigations….. I hope once everything is concluded, the allegations will be put to rest"
"It means a lot to me because this will be a back-to-back participation in the Olympics. To me its good and the way we have improved from the time I started coaching this team, we have managed to go to all major tournaments. We have been to the Women’s Africa Cup of Nations, the Olympics and even the World Cup so it is actually a bonus to me that we are going there again in succession"
"As far as Im concerned, we cannot consider ourselves as underdogs"
"Theyve been to the African Cup twice, theyve been to the Olympics. So for me, I think they have the experience required to play in this competition,"
"I am happy that FIFA is investigating the matter because it will provide an opportunity for my name to be cleared of all the allegations"
"I shall cooperate throughout the investigations because I want my name to be cleared and people should know the truth"
