Africa-Press – Namibia. <\/strong><\/span>In an effort to strengthen their fan base, Otjiwarongo-based Namibia Premier Football League club, Life Fighters have appointed Moses Kangumba as the chairperson of their supporters\u2019 club.<\/p>\nTerry Ujamba, the commercial director of Life Fighters, which is affectionately also known as Kahirona, confirmed to New Era that Kangumba\u2019s appointment is effective 13 July 2023.<\/p>\n
\u201cThis noble idea came into play as a community club. Our supporters needed a voice in the team\u2019s affairs, which prompted them to have a supporters\u2019 representative on the board,\u201d Ujamba explained.<\/p>\n
He also added that Kangumba\u2019s appointment will contribute positively to the mandate of the supporters.<\/p>\n
\u201cHe has 30 years\u2019 experience in local football and supporters club administration, and Kahirona will benefit from his vast experience as well,\u201d Ujamba added.<\/p>\n
On the team\u2019s preparations for the next season, the commercial director said training has started and the coaches and players are hard at work. \u201cThe boys are training hard; they showed hunger for the commencement of the league. We are trying hard to keep them in the camp with the little resources we have at our disposal,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n
Ujamba said the team will add two international players from Nigeria and Ghana before the season commences.<\/p>\n
\u201cThis is with the purpose of adding depth to our team for the upcoming Premier League season,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n
Ujamba urged the corporate world to come on board and help the team where they can.<\/p>\n
\u201cThis is a community team, one of the oldest in the Otjozondjupa region, thus it requires the involvement of everyone in the region for the development of the beautiful game of football and job creation efforts for the players as well,\u201d the director said.<\/p>\n
On his part, Kangumba said he is overwhelmed by his new role in the club.<\/p>\n
\u201cI have vast experience in running football from grassroots and have been part and parcel of this club\u2019s successes in various aspects,\u201d Kangumba alluded.<\/p>\n
He said his main aim is to make sure the club\u2019s supporters are issued with membership cards.<\/p>\n
\u201cOf course, we will create a database of our fan base, which will help us to develop the team together and generate revenue and give incentives or special treatment to supporters in terms of membership,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n
Kangumba said he wants Life Fighters club to have its own properties like busses and accommodation facilities, among others.<\/p>\n
\u201cThis will also bring a sense of belonging instead of renting properties all the time. Our year plan has already started, and our prime aim is to win the premier league next season,\u201d he explained.<\/p>\n
Life Fighters football club was formed in 1964, and it is well-known for its purple uniform.<\/p>\n
