“It’s true that Eethe Khaukanani hasn’t been paid his salary for this month. I don’t blame the chairman of the club here but the problem is that some of the people working for the chairman are wrong people who are not doing things the way they should be done. They owe him a lot of money because his salary was not paid in full the last time. Now the club has threatened to terminate his contract. There should difference between amateur and professional football. Some people don’t respect contracts,” said Mulovhedzi.
