MBABANE – The Manzini Wanderers Council of Elders is concerned about the
safety of the team’s Management Committee (MC) members.
This comes after one of the team’s official was manhandled by supporters after
the 1-0 defeat to Denver Sundowns on Saturday at the Mavuso Sports Centre. The
maroon and white hub giants quickly held a joint meeting with the Managing
Committee (MC) to address the issue yesterday and to find solutions on how to
get the team out of the current situation. The Chairman of the Council of
Elders, Joe Nkumane, confirmed the meeting and he said it was a successful one,
and they came out with the solution, which would be implemented soon. “The
burning issue was that of the official that was manhandled by the supporters and
we couldn’t just relax as the safety of our lives comes first,” Nkumane
said.
He said the current MC has given their all in steering the club thus far, and he
also on behalf the council of elders thanked the Board of Directors and the
Managing Director (MD), Cedric Mathatha for the financial muscle he has provided
to the club. “The supporters are the backbone of our club together with the
players, the latter having endured the heavy impact of all the difficulties as
main actors on the stage,” Nkumane said.
Results
He also said what the team was currently facing was not monetary related, but it
was the issue of not getting the desired results in games. Nkumane further said
the problem areas were identified during the meeting, and solutions were mapped
out. He called for calm and requested all stakeholders to give time to these
initiatives to settle. He finally urged all Wanderers’ loving supporters and
followers to voice out their grievances through the available channels, where
they would be appropriately addressed.
