Capitalise on 'Asifuni Bumbulu' campaign

"A tree that does not give shade when the sun is hot cannot give shade when it rains." So goes the saying .
That has been a case in point that has been proven by multitudes of arguably the biggest and highly supported football club Highlanders, when they launched a fundraising campaign dubbed "Asifuni Bumbulu" aimed at raising funds in the event Bosso is penalised for the disturbances which occured recently at Babourfields Stadium leading to the abandonment in the 41st minute of the match against perennial rivals Dynamos FC.
As some will say , "Whatever the size of the pot, the lid still exist".
Whatever the problem, there is always a solution.(konke sizokulungisa sisonke). Bosso fans have opened their hearts and extended a lending hand to the club in this time of need.
It is in this regard that I appeal to the Highlanders Executive back home to capitalise on the Asifuni Bumbulu Campaign and plead with Bosso fans worldwide to donate a dollar each to the club so that the money will pull the club out of the financial constraints estimated to be over seven hundred thousand dollars (US700 000) in the official report at the 2017 AGM in January.
With millions of Bosso fans scattered all over the world, it is possible that a million supporters can donate a dollar each and some even more as is the case presently. If handled properly and if the campaign reaches all spheres of the world , enough money can be raised to pay the club's debts and fines hence as a community Highlanders is our team .
I urge the Bosso Executive to use the Asifuni Bumbulu Campaign to pull the club out of the financial doldrums the club is in .Otherwise its now or never.
