Sweswe puts behind Chiefs’ past challenges

Newly-appointed Bulawayo Chiefs coach Lizwe Sweswe says he is focused on rebuilding the Ninjas into a force to reckon with after financial challenges last year forced a mass exodus of players.

The club failed to pay players for months and some senior players left the team for greener pastures.

Coach Nilton Terroso did not return to Zimbabwe for the new season, while his assistant Thulani Sibanda also quit the club and has since joined Triangle as head coach.
