Highlanders executive committee chairman Kenneth Mhlophe has reportedly written to the club’s board, led by chairman Luke Mkandla, seeking intervention to resolve internal conflicts within his committee that have created a toxic working environment.
The move follows a fallout involving executive committee members Kindman Ndlovu and secretary-general Morgen “Gazza” Dube, who recently sued club treasurer Nkani Khoza for alleged defamation of character stemming from a financial presentation made at the Annual General Meeting in February.
Ndlovu and Dube are demanding a public apology from Khoza, claiming the presentation contained fabricated information intended to damage their reputation among the Bosso faithful.
Sources say the dispute has caused a serious rift among the trio, with communication breaking down and progress within the club reportedly stalled.
“Mhlophe recently wrote to the board seeking their intervention to restore a conducive working environment, as relations between Ndlovu, Dube, and Khoza have deteriorated,” a source revealed.
The situation comes at an unfortunate time for Highlanders, who are preparing to celebrate their centenary this year.
