MBABANE – A Mobile Money (MoMo) account has been opened to cater for the
collections and contributions by Denver Sundowns supporters.
This is to ensure that all funds made by supporters are accounted for. On top of
the reasons for the account, is also the E25 000 fine to the Premier League of
Eswatini (PLE) after the club was found guilty of misconduct in a league game
against Malanti Chiefs in Pigg’s Peak before games were suspended on March 13
due to COVID-19.
In a press statement by the hub side’s Public Relations Officer (PRO) Muzi
Matsenjwa yesterday, it was confirmed that they had since ‘reached an
agreement with the Premier League sponsors, MTN, to open a Mobile Money account
for supporters’. “The main purpose of the account is the collection and
storage of supporters’ contributions to the team. There have been growing
concerns over the years on the accountability of funds contributed by
supporters,” read the statement in part.
He explained that it was the team’s Management Committee (MC) and National
Supporters Committee’s (NSC) hard work that resulted in the matter being
addressed.
