HIGHLANDERS will on Sunday hold their Annual General Meeting (AGM) at the clubhouse.
Among the key points on the meeting’s agenda are the chairman’s report, the treasurer’s report and adoption of the board’s report.

In a notice released in early January, the club said elections for the office bearers will be conducted separately on 6 February at Highlanders Sports Club.
Positions to be contested for are that of the executive vice chairman and executive treasurer.
Nominations for the Bosso elections closed last Saturday with four candidates having submitted their papers, two each for the positions to be contested.

The verification process was done on Monday in the presence of the candidates and their representatives.
Candidates ought to have been Highlanders members for an uninterrupted period of 24 months, have to have got their nomination forms signed by a minimum of 10 Bosso members in good standing and were required to pay a nomination fee of US$100 to qualify as contestants in the elections.
The nomination fee is refundable if a candidate receives at least 10 percent of the total votes cast for the position they are contesting in.
Bar owner and socialite Babongile Sikhonjwa and Zifa Southern Region board member (competitions) Fiso Siziba are both interested in the vice-chairmanship post, while for the treasurer’s position, Busani Mthombeni and Xolisani Moyo have officially declared their interest.
Modern Ngwenya, the outgoing vice-chairman together with Donald Ndebele, the soon to be former treasurer, have both served the mandatory two consecutive terms in their positions and step down in line with the Bosso constitution.
