Highlanders Football Club treasurer Busani Mthombeni has resigned midway through his three-year term.

Mthombeni quit his post on Tuesday night after presenting the club’s 2023 budget during a joint executive and board meeting.

Bosso board chairman Luke Mnkandla confirmed Mthombeni’s resignation.

“The club treasurer Busani Mthombeni has resigned. He tendered in his resignation last (Tuesday) night. In his letter, Mthombeni cited personal reasons for stepping down as opportunities that demand more of his attention have risen. We wish him well in his future endeavours,” Mnkandla said.

Mthombeni’s resignation comes barely a month after presenting club’s 2022 financial statements, which the auditors issued an adverse report on.

Mthombeni, who is based in South Africa, won the Highlanders treasurer’s post at elections held in February after polling 140 votes against Xolani Moyo’s 112.
