The club’s president Mbaraka Hamid told reporters here that the league should restart right from where it was so as to avoid inconveniences of fixture.
He said his club had to suggest that after the president of Zanzibar Football Federation (ZFF), was quoted as saying he was not planning to nullify the league.

He said all players and the technical bench are in good shape and safe from virus infection.
He said they expect to resume training upon getting directives from the government and health experts.

One of the tough contenders for the Isles League title, Mlandege are positioned fourth with 44 points.
KMKM, who the league’s defending champions, are commanding the title race with 46 points.
