MBABANE – Eswatini legends are forming a new legends organisation – Football
Legends Trust Fund.
This was the brainchild of an Ewastini football legend in Josiah ‘Diggar’
Dlamini, which he shared with other local football legends. According to
Dlamini, the idea received a great reception from his other counterparts. “It
was my idea which I introduced to other local football legends. This is after I
started hosting a show called Libhola Eswatini broadcast live every Thursday
evening on Eswatini TV. At the show, I invite local legends where they speak
about themselves and the history of local football and it was gradually gaining
viewership,” said Dlamini.
The Mbabane Highlanders legend further explained that through the Football
Legends Trust Fund, they wanted to deliver back to the society and help current
players, assisting in the development of local football as a whole. “We will
be engaging current players and encouraging them, we also plan to help in
communities where the need arises,” said Dlamini.
Further, the legend explained that another main objective of the formation of
the organisation was to promote brotherhood among legends, meaning they wanted
to socialise to know each other.
Dlamini also disclosed that the Eswatini Football Association (EFA) had football
legends such as the President Adam ‘Bomber’ Mthethwa and Vice-President
Peter ‘Samora’ Simelane among others who will also be joining the
organisation in their capacity as local football legends. “We want to be
involved in communities, help tackle challenges,” said Dlamini.
