APM delivers!  Bullets, Wanderers get land for their stadium

April 12, 2019 Green Muheya -Nyasa Times 25 Comments

President Peter Mutharika’s directive that government should construct stadiums for  domestic football powerhouses Nyasa Big Bullets and Be Forward Wanderers is coming to fruition as  two sites have been allocated in Blantyre  where government will build the facilities.

Bullets CEO Haiya shows the design for their stadium at proposed site in Ngumbe

Ministry of Labour, Youth, Sports and Manpower Development on Thursday received two sites from Blantyre City  Council .

Bullets  had earlier proposed Ngumbe near Kameza Roundabout along the Zalewa Road in Blantyre as their possible stadium site while Wanderers earmarked a  piece of land close to Chichiri Secondary School.

The the two Blantyre-based TNM Super League outfits  switched, with Bullets picking land near Moneymen Growth Centre along Chikwawa  Road while Wanderers opted for land near Kanjedza  in Limbe West opposite Blantyre Teachers Training College.

Bullets and Wanderers have existed for over 50 years but do not own stadiums let alone a basic ground.

Meanwhile, Bullets already unveiled the design of their 25 000-seater stadium, which they hope to be constructed on the land.

Bullets chief executive officer Fleetwood Haiya said they already had the design because they were in the process of doing the same within the next five years as part of their commercialisation drive.

He added that they also have plans to construct a 10 000-seater stadium at Kamba ground in Naperi, Blantyre for their reserve and youth teams.

Haiya said they are waiting for the Malawi Housing Corporation (MHC) to give them a go-ahead.

  1. No, i heard the president at the rally, he said ‘i will build you each a stadium (sic)’ and not i will give you plots for your stadia. There’s a huge difference baba, so say again that he has delivered, not to me.

  7. A waste of resources. APM wont even be President after May elections, he should have made such commitments after winning election.

  8. This is personal commitment by APM, I am very sure he will fulfill it whether voted back or not.

  9. Kameza could have been ideal for one stadium being located on m1 road. moreover ter are already other plans to have other stadiums within or near to the proposed areas. Think twice

  10. Utterly rubbish ! Political points ? Malawi needs more than mere stadia. Come on people open your eyes !

  11. If corporate bodies are so happy and very excited with their begging bowls….where does it leave the common citizens

  12. Ngati APM sawina ndiye kuti alibe kwawo. I can see many people developing open bowels during sworn in ceremony for APM

  14. Politics at i’ts best where was DPP in the last 4yrs and some months dziko ili kumvetsa chisoni.Building of stadiums for two so called teams is being provisioning of pro-poor policies?Who will be the sole benefiaries of these two stadiums?Osasitha system ya ku road traffic ,immigration,university loans.Kodi anthu akumuzi mukuwaganizira chani,munthu osaphunzira bwa?There are a lot of policies that needs revising koma 21 may we will make a good or bad decision God knows.Komanso zomanena kuti mulungu wasankha zimandinyasa is it the same God with capital G or small g?.i rest ma case.

      1. We shall shoot down the bill becoz we shall have numbers in parliament! Mark my words, such a bill shall be shot down………………………………. becoz according to priority of priorities we are not missing two stadiums in Malawi and two stadiums in one city alone!
