An athletics coach in Zambia is being accused of leaking a private video of sprinter Rhoda Njobvu and another female athlete. Njobvu claims she was in a relationship with her coach, who allegedly requested the video and wanted to participate in a threesome.
The coach confirmed the relationship but denies leaking the video, suggesting another athlete may have accessed his phone. He claims he pursued the relationship because he believes his wife is uncaring.
Njobvu and the other athlete, Sergeant Katundu Lumweka, have been arrested and charged with producing and circulating obscene materials. Both women have since been released on police bond, and they’ve been suspended from national duty.
Njobvu has formally reported the incident to the athletics governing body. Two other athletes have also come forward with similar allegations against the coach. The National Sports Council of Zambia and World Athletics have not yet commented on the situation.
