Businessman Wicknell Chivayo has honoured the pledge that he had made to Highlanders Football Club and paid $4 000 for the club. Highlanders were fined $4000 by the Premier Soccer League after their match against Dynamos at Barbourfields was abandoned due to crowd trouble.
Former Chronicle editor and Highlanders fan, Mduduzi Mathuthu said that Chivayo had, in fact, paid the fine as promised. Writing on Twitter, Mathuthu said:
