2012 road accident

On August 4, 2012, twenty three fans of Kabuscorp do Palanca club died and 29 others injured, following a road accident on the road connecting the provinces of Kwanza Norte and Luanda. The accident occurred when a bus carrying the supporters of Palanca club was returning from the town of Calulo, coastal Kwanza sul province, after a football match opposing home side Recreativo do Libolo and Kabuscorp. The match was part of the 20th round of national league's first division, Girabola 2012, which ended with a 2–0 victory for the host team.

2018 penalties

In May, FIFA has instructed the Angolan Football Federation that Kabuscorp should forfeit 6 points in the 2018 league as a result of being in default to their former star player Rivaldo. In a weekly report issued by the Angolan federation, it is further stated that the club may be banned from official competition in case the claimant files a new complaint. [1]

In June, FIFA again ruled that Kabuscorp forfeits an additional 6 points in the league for being in default with DRC's TP Mazembe in the 2014 deal with Trésor Mputu. [2]

2018–19 penalties

Kabuscorp forfeited 9 points, for failing to address payment claims by a total 6 individuals, following a 15-day deadline stipulated by the Angolan Football Federation (FAF). The first case includes former player Adawá Mokanga, the second case includes former staff members Afonso Paxe Filho, Dombasi João, Kutama Shabani and former head-coach Romeu Filemón whereas the third case refers to former club physician Dr. Caetano Maria. [3]

In May, the Angolan Football Federation received a letter from FIFA ordering Kabuscorp to be relegated for failing to meet payment claims by former player Rivaldo. [4] [5] Even though the debt has reportedly been paid in full, Kabuscorp failed to pay within the established deadline. The club faced a second relegation penalty regarding their dispute with TP Mazembe. [6] [7]

Dissolution

On 12 March 2022, the club's president Bento Kangamba announced the club would forfeit from Girabola and would be dissolved, due to the constant penalties applied by the Angolan Football Federation. [8]
