Some of the members who were expected to raise the country’s flag high are Nicholas Kurima, Terrence Munemo, Isaac Marara and Tafadzwa Muropa.

‘’Everyone is disappointed, but we cannot blame ourselves because we do not have funding. Missing the event is like the Warriors also missing the World Cup,’’ Tangata said.
