Authorities at the magnificent Bingu National Stadium (BNS) in Lilongwe say a total of 145 seats were damaged during the inaugural K320 million Ibongetse Castel Challenge Cup final involving FCB Nyasa Big Bullets and Silver Strikers last week.
This follows an assessment conducted at the facility after the incident.
Spokesperson for the Ministry of Youth and Sports Macmillan Mwale has also confirmed the development.
“It’s true and really sad that the seats at BNS are decreasing in numbers due to vandalism,” he says.
Mwale has since urged Football Association of Malawi (FAM) to investigate and bring the perpetrators to justice.
Sports analyst, Dan Chemis,expresses disappointment over the development.
“Malawians should protect the property at Bingu National Stadium.This is the only type of facility we have in this country,” Chemis complains.
A similar incident also occurred during the Airtel Top 8 Quarter-Final match between Silver Strikers and Mighty Mukuru Wanderers.
Following the incident, Wanderers were fined K22 million for the damages.
