MaMkhize Becomes New President of eSwatini Football Club
Businesswoman and reality TV star Shauwn Mkhize has reportedly acquired a football club in eSwatini, making headlines once again.
According to multiple online reports, MaMkhize is said to have purchased Mbabane Highlanders, one of the country’s most prominent teams. With the acquisition, she becomes the first female president of the capital city club — a historic move for eSwatini football.
The news broke via popular football platform @UnplayableZA and quickly sparked widespread reaction online. Many fans expressed disbelief given her ongoing legal issues and the controversies that surrounded her previous ownership of Royal AM in South Africa.
While some applauded her bold business decision and applauded the milestone for women in sports leadership, others voiced concern.
“People in eSwatini really overlooked all the red flags,” one user wrote on social media, referencing her track record in football administration.
Despite the mixed reactions, MaMkhize seems undeterred — continuing to expand her brand, wealth, and regional influence.
As of now, neither MaMkhize nor the Mbabane Highlanders have issued an official statement regarding the deal. However, the online buzz suggests a formal announcement may follow soon.
Whether this bold move marks a new chapter of success or a controversial turn remains to be seen, but one thing is clear — MaMkhize is not slowing down anytime soon.
