FORMER Highlanders secretary-general Nhlanhla Bahlangene Dube is reportedly set to make an emotional return to the Bulawayo giants' structures as chief executive officer, replacing veteran administrator Ndumiso Gumede, who is set to retire at the end of May.
"If it's an idea it's probably still an in-house issue. I haven't been canvassed," said Dube yesterday.
Sources said Dube, who rose from the supporters' charter leadership to the post of secretary-general, was the target.
"His return to Highlanders is imminent. He is in the constitutional steering committee of the club as we move towards total compliance with the club licensing requirements," said the source.
Dube was defeated by Horace Ndubiwa in his bid to retain his post as secretary-general in 2006, but never ruled out a return to the club's structures.
"Unlike our elections where people canvas for positions, the chief executive officer post is a professional position which the club leadership can either headhunt or advertise. I haven't been canvassed," said Dube.
Highlanders are going through a transformation phase that started with a review of the club's constitution, which will be presented for adoption by members at the mid-year general meeting, after which elections for a new board would be called in early 2017.
The new board will have a chairman and a deputy as well as a minimum of three other members.
The main objectives of club licensing are to promote and improve the quality of all aspects of football in Africa.
It's also aimed at ensuring that clubs have the appropriate infrastructure, knowledge and application in respect of management and organisation, adapting and improving the clubs' sporting infrastructure and improving the economic and financial capacity of the clubs through proper corporate governance and control.
Club licensing is also meant to ensure and guarantee the continuity of the international competitions of clubs during the season and allow the parallel development and comparison amongst clubs by ensuring the necessary compliance in terms of financial, sporting, legal, administrative and infrastructure criteria.
