Minister of Youth, Sports and Culture Francis Phiso  has said the works are estimated to take 104 weeks-  about two years.

“The contracts have already been signed, the contractors are already at the sites. So, we are good to go,” he said.

President Mutharika promised to build the stadia’s for the two giants last year and Treasury allocated K1.6 billion (K800 million) each in the 2019/20 National Budget..

The President will tour both sites—near Moneymen along Chikwawa Road for Bullets and Kanjedza Forest near Blantyre Teachers College for the Nomads.

Both Bullets and Wanderers officials have commended President Mutharika for fulfilling his promise and that they were pleased with the state-of-the art designs of their home grounds.

The People’sTeam chief administration officer Albert Chigoga said the country has reached  reached a stage where “ all doubters realise the fulfillment of the project”

 

Nomads general secretary Victor Maunde said the Lali Lubani Road side is thankful to the President  Mutharika and government for living up to the promise.

 

“The doubting Thomases have been proved wrong,” he said.

 

The two giants will now have a permanent home grounds.

Kamuzu never built Chichiri stadiumIt was built by atsamunda and it was called Langley stadium. Kamuzi was sworn in as prime minister at Langely stadium. That tells you ut was there before he even became prime minister

Za ziiiìiii !!
After winning the elections, you were sleeping, and neva dreamt of constructing the said stadia.
Simply because we’re having FPE , then you think soccer followers will vote for the dpp?
You’re failing to maintain BNS , a structure built by ur bro.
You’re even failing to look after Kamuzu stadium
Shallow minded fools.
