When asked why the change from education to sport, he retorted; “I have served the education sector through my previous employer at the Vaal University of Technology and achieved my 10000 hours of service. Change is constant in our lives. I love sport and Chiefs is close to my heart hence I could not resist the Chairman’s challenge to consider serving the Phefeni Glamour Boys”.

In welcoming a new colleague, Marketing Director; Jessica Motaung said “we are looking forward to receiving Vina into the family. We pledge our support and hope to tap into his expertise to guide our communications”.
