“We followed all the required procedures in line with our Human Resources Manual as well as the Labour Act. We investigated the matter and Mr Mwagomba admitted wrongdoing.

“Consequently, a summary dismissal was effected and we have started the process of hunting for a new accountant. We are doing all this in line with Club Licencing requirements,” Nyirenda said.
