ALLY’S REIGN END IS NIGH!

MBABANE - South African businessman Chief Ally Kgomongwe’s reign as
Highlanders Managing Director (MD) will end in two weeks’ time.
The Times Sports Desk has reliably gathered that Kgomongwe, through his
attorneys PM Tshabalala Incorporates, has informed Mbabane Highlanders Patrons
that this month’s salaries will be the last to be paid by their client (Alfred
Tebello Kgomongwe). The letter written on December 1 was addressed to the
Highlanders Patrons secretary Musa Masuku. The Times Sports Desk has gathered
that the Highlanders Patrons have worsened the impasse on the club’s
registration as a company by not responding to the letter.
“The least they could have done was respond to the letter because Ally raised
issues about some of the names of people they had suggested to be part of the
directors as some of them were there before and when they left, they took
everything including equipment belonging to the club,” a source close to the
matter said. The source further stated that Highlanders Patrons are suggesting
that the club be registered as a public company, which Kgomongwe is not pleased
with. Kgomongwe’s lawyer, Mandla Tshabalala, stated in the letter to the
Patrons that after a meeting held in October, Kgomongwe raised issues he was not
happy with, which had not been addressed over a month later.

Reached for comment, Kgomongwe said he had communicated everything to
Highlanders Patrons through the letter from his lawyer and nothing had changed. 
Patrons Secretary Masuku declined to comment on the issue last night. “I have
no comment on this issue,” he said briefly. Kgomongwe was handed a five-year
contract at Highlanders in May 2019 and won his first trophy, the 2019
EswatiniTelecom Charity Cup, ending the ‘Black Bull’ nine-year wait for a
trophy. He has been spending over E300 000 per month running the country’s
most successful football club with salaries costing E258 000 monthly.
Highlanders are currently placed on the second spot on the MTN log standings
following the demoralising 1-all draw with a rigid Manzini Sea Birds at Mavuso
Sports Centre on Saturday.
