HIGHLANDERS chairman, Johnfat Sibanda, believes he still has a lot to offer at the club and another term will allow him to take the club to another level.
Sibanda will go into the ballot on February 4 against four other contestants for the chairmanship.
He will contest against banker Edison Dube, former chairman Kenneth Mhlophe as well as South Africa-based member, Nodumo Nyathi.
On Wednesday Sibanda was in the capital to engage with the Harare chapter of Bosso fans.
“I think I still have a lot to offer to the club, which is so close to my heart. I have been a Highlanders fan and executive member for several years and I am not looking back and my intention is to see the club grow.
“I am looking forward to being given another chance as three years were not enough to see me transform the club to the old glory days.”
He added:
“Last season we missed out after a perfect start but it’s sport and I am going to make sure that we rectify that if given the opportunity.
“My appeal is that the electorate give me another chance.”
Sibanda believes he has, in his three years, managed to transform the Bulawayo giants into a formidable side while also widening their revenue sources, including securing a mine claim and partnerships with some corporates like Sakunda Holdings.
