FORMER Highlanders Football Club team manager Jerry Sibanda has taken over as acting treasurer following the resignation of Odiel Nkomo last week.
Board secretary Jimmy Ncube confirmed the development to NewsDay Sport yesterday.
"We have confirmed Jerry Sibanda as Highlanders acting treasurer with immediate effect. The appointment was approved by the board in consultation with the executive. He will be in charge until the next annual general meeting. We chose him because he is a former executive member and he is not new to the Highlanders system," he said.
Contacted for comment, Sibanda, a former Gwanda Ramblers and Bosso striker, said he had not yet received the letter of appointment.
He is former manager of the club and is a senior manager at the Bulawayo City Council.
Former Highlanders players are reported to have approached Sibanda earlier in the year not to put his nomination for the post of secretary, which was being contested for by another former Highlanders manager Emmett Ndlovu in January.
