The Zambia National Paralympics team will miss the World Para-Athletics Grand Prix to be held in Marrakesh, Morocco from 9th to 12th March, 2023.
National Paralympics Committee of Zambia General Secretary Moses Chishimba says the committee could not raise enough funds for the outing.
He adds that there has not been any help from the Ministry of Sports.
Chishimba has since expressed sadness over the team’s failure to participate at the world showpiece after six months of preparations.
The committee has since shifted their attention to other upcoming Para-athletics events.
The World Para-Athletics Grand Prix will be used as classification and qualification for the 2024 Paris Olympic Games.
