What
does Maningi mean? A million dollar question!
Dimbiri
reveals, perhaps for the first time, that “Had it not been the
thoughts and memories of my late grandfather, Mr Wadson Dimbiri
(known in the community as Maningi) maybe Maningi FC would not
have been formed. Mr Maningi as he was well known was a man of
character, who went a long way to help the community soccer
projects in Zaka. He used to support and love the sport. May his
soul rest in peace.
It is also
important to note that several people played key roles in the
formation of Maningi Warriors FC. This includes encouragement of
people like K Tavengerwei, L Malianga, L Chiwawa, M Maketo and Z
Chiyangwa. While others were well known, there are those who
toiled tirelessly but remained in the background, yet their
contributions were extremely significant. It is a fact that I am
talking about the Director's wife Sibusisiwe Dimbiri (nee
Malianga) as she played huge roles in terms of the formation and
growth of the team.
