United Democratic Movement president Bantu Holomisa has called on the Motaung family to step down from Kaizer Chiefs management.
The General, who is a big supporter of the club, says the Moutangs should ‘outsource’ the management role.
Chiefs currently have Kaizer Motaung junior operating as sporting director, Bobby as football manager, Jessica as marketing director and Kemiso as head of digital in their managerial structure.
Speaking to Sunday World, Holomisa said the Motaung family should play a role in the board of directors at Kaizer Chiefs and shy away from management.
“We might have to seriously consider, as fans of Kaizer Chiefs, to formalise how do we advise the leadership of the club,” he said.
“The fans of the club are used to [Kaizer] Motaung when he was hands on.
“Maybe the club should be looking at professionalising the management of the club,” Holomisa added.
Holomisa says Kaizer Chiefs must remove the Motaung family
“Kaizer has built that empire for his family and also for the business of South Africa because if Chiefs are coming to the city the hotels are going to be full, the taxis are going to get money, stores and garages are going to make money.
“That product, we must jealously guard as the nation because Chiefs are a ‘national’ squad of some kind. We cannot fold our arms and laugh, saying they are crumbling. Let’s try to professionalise it.”
Holomisa believes Chiefs’ problems started when the chairman Kaizer took a backseat and allowed his children to run the club.
“We might have to seriously consider, as fans of Chiefs, to formalise how we advise the leadership of the club.”
“The fans of the club are used to [Kaizer] Motaung when he was hands on,” Holomisa on issues affecting Chiefs.
“Maybe the club should be looking at professionalising the management of the club.”
