President Emmerson Mnangagwa has followed up his recent meeting with Highlanders Football Club executive with another against rival Dynamos FC.

Presidential spokesperson George Charamba through his Jamwanda2 Twitter account posted about the meeting saying the meeting was part of Mnangagwa’s support to the most followed sport which has not been active since COVID-19 started.

“This morning His Excellency the President, Cde E.D. Mnangagwa met the Executive of Dynamos Football Club as part of his support for the national sport which has been frozen by COVID-19 pandemic.

“This inactivity has created financial challenges for most Clubs in the country, motivating the President to take a keen interest in their fate and how it can be improved. Football remains the leading sport in the country.

“The Club gave the President its iconic jersey bearing his initials. A few weeks back, His Excellency the President met with the hierarchy of Highlanders Football Club to listen to challenges they face in the wake of COVID-19 pandemic which has stymied contact sporting activities worldwide.

“Two key faces in Dynamos FC are former Minister of Information and Publicity, Hon Webster Shamu, and Cde Marechera, both war veterans. Cde Marechera who appears in the accompanying picture with Dynamos Chairman, participated in historic Zanla attack on Grand Reef Airbase, a mission which was led by late Paradzayi Zimondi, Augustine Chihuri,” said Jamwanda.
