Matilda Mwaba-Lucas, daughter to Ms Mwaba announced the sad development.
Ms Mwaba started her career in the corporate sector, however, after training in martial arts she was elected Chairperson of the Zambia Police Judo Club from 1997-1998.
She was then elected president of the Zambian National Judo Federation and served for 7 years.
Ms. Mwaba also served on the National Olympic Committee of Zambia Board.
She was the first female Judo Association President and later founded and became Chief Executive Director of the National Organisation for Women in Sport, Physical Activity and Recreation (NOWSPAR), a sports NGO.
NOWSPAR’s mission is to advocate for the equal participation of women and girls in sport at all levels, through research, policy analysis, awareness-raising and capacity development of women in sport and organisations to enhance the delivery of sport for the benefit of women.
May Her Soul Rest In Eternal Peace
Our heartfelt condolences to her family and the NOWSPAR team, an NGO she founded.
Go well Mama Judo. [MWEBANTU]
