TNM has donated K2 million towards the construction of a basketball court at Civo Stadium in Lilongwe.<\/p>\n
The donation follows a request from Central Zone Basketball League (Cezobal).<\/p>\n
Cezobal has organised a fundraising tournament set for Civo Stadium on July 15 when Vice President Saulos Chilima, is expected to grace the occasion.<\/p>\n
TNM Chief Officer\u2013 Consumer Services, Daniel Makata, said they have supported Cezobal\u2019s initiative to contribute to the revamping of basketball.<\/p>\n
\u201cTNM is passionate about golf. We are into cricket, golf, football and marathons, among others. We want to support different sports codes as much as we can. So, when Cezobal requested us we felt that we should partner them in rebuilding the sport to take it to another level,\u201d he said after making the donation at TNM\u2019s head office in Blantyre.<\/p>\n
Cezobal representative, Tiyese Kaimila, applauded TNM for the support.<\/p>\n
\u201cBasically, we are looking for K16 million for basic court. But the cost will likely increase because of other factors, including setting up stands and floodlights,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n
Before presenting the donation, TNM also conducted Zampira Monthly draw.<\/p>\n
TNM Senior Manager, Enterprise Services and Sponsorships, Limbani Nsapato, said the monthly draw was a success as more entries were registered.<\/p>\n
\u201cFor instance out of 25,122 predictions for the Nomads [Be Forward Wanderers] versus Azam Tigers\u2019 game, 219 got it right. Out of 38,070 predictions for the month 1,051, were correct,\u201d Nsapato said after Wanderers supporters, Patrick Funsani of Mzimba, and another fan emerged winners for the draw.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
