MBABANE – Development is at stand-still. After the outbreak of the novel
COVID-19 (coronavirus) pandemic, most of the country’s development initiatives
were disrupted and this includes the Premier League of Eswatini’s (PLE) E5
million project.
The project was announced by PLE Executive Member Sicelo Mkhonta during the
organisation’s special general meeting, which was a continuation of their
annual general meeting (AGM) at Sigwaca House.
The gist of the meeting was to deliberate on the organisation’s financial
statements, an item which was left out during the AGM.

After, the meeting, Mkhonta disclosed the proposed project as part of
announcements made to attending Board of Governors (BoGs).
“The executive would like to announce that they are planning on embarking on a
complex project, which is basically an infrastructure worth E5 million,” said
the executive member.
Mkhonta proceeded to explain that they intended to construct a structure that
would house the PLE as it was currently operating under the Eswatini Football
Association (EFA) building.
He further informed the BoGs that the executive was exploring ways through which
the organisation could generate income and the project was aimed at also
achieving this objective.
