Harare seeks Sakunda talks on Rufaro

Harare City Council has made a surprise u-turn on its decision to cut ties with Sakunda Holdings on the project to renovate Rufaro Stadium.

This comes after the energy giant on Tuesday announced that it was withdrawing its commitment to renovate the Mbare-based facility citing lack of commitment from the City Fathers.

The two parties had earlier this year agreed on a deal that would have seen Sakunda renovating Rufaro Stadium to world class status under a long-term lease agreement on behalf of Dynamos Football Club.
