The teams have to look smart as they play for a good cause,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n<p>The gesture brought excitement to the team\u2019s officials especially when they realized that the uniforms were bought from their traditional respective suppliers.<\/p>\n<p>Bullets Chief Administration Officer Albert Chigoga and Wanderers Administration Officer Steve Palemeza jointly thanked NBS Bank for the kits while assuring their fans that the two teams are ready for the Blantyre derby away from their home.<\/p>\n<p>FAM Communication and Competitions Director Gomezgani Zakazaka also commended NBS Bank for the support saying with the kits available it means all is set for the encounter on Sunday.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cFrom us as organizers of the match, we are now good to go,\u201d said Zakazaka. This is the second year NBS Bank is bankrolling the FAM Charity Shield which is used as an activity to open the new football season in Malawi.<\/p>\n<p>This year, NBS Bank hiked the sponsorship package to K20 million from K15 million the previous year. Last year\u2019s proceeds were channeled towards Cyclone Ana victims in the lower shire districts of Chikwawa and Nsanje. This year\u2019s plans were to support the education sector before Cyclone Freddy hit thereby forcing a change to assist Cyclone Freddy survivors.<\/p>\n<p><strong>For More News And Analysis About <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/malawi\">Malawi<\/a> Follow <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/\">Africa-Press<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Africa-Press &#8211; Malawi.
