At a graduation ceremony in the Mother City last week, the University of Cape Town (UCT) honoured Kaizer Chiefs Executive Chairman and Founder Kaizer Motaung.
The Chiefs Chairman, who was present at the ceremony with his family, received the honorary degree of Doctor of Social Science Honoris Causa from the prestigious university, one of the top tertiary institutions in the world.
The Kaizer Chiefs chairman was recognised by the University of Cape Town for his support of both soccer and social progress in the nation.
The statement reads:
“Kaizer Chiefs congratulate the Chairman for the prestigious title that has been awarded to him, as well as acknowledge his hard work in helping grow the game of football in South Africa and ensuring the upliftment over the past five decades of marginalized and disadvantaged footballers”.
“The Chairman has also been at the forefront of building Kaizer Chiefs into a leading global football club and brand. With the doctorate that has been bestowed on him by UCT the Chiefs Chairman has now earned the title of Doctor Kaizer Motaung.”
The Week 1 fixtures for the 2022/2023 DStv Premiership has just been revealed, and Soweto powerhouses Kaizer Chiefs and Orlando Pirates will face challenging opponents to open their PSL campaigns.
Not only Amakhosi and the Buccaneers, but also the defending champion Mamelodi Sundowns, have had rocky starts to their seasons. The whole fixtures, including dates, times, and locations, is now available here.
In a challenging away match, Kaizer Chiefs will take on Shauwn “MaMkhize” Mkhize’s Royal AM. It will be a significant test for Arthur Zwane and Dillon Sheppard, the Glamour Boys’ new coaching duo, who hope to demonstrate that their remodelled Amakhosi club is a significantly improved outfit this season.
The club recently produced a video displaying the procedures and plans that have been carried out. The Glamour Boys recently reported for duty at the end of June 2022 for their pre-season preparations.
