The charismatic leader and chairman of Chiefs, Motaung said the supporters matter because they are the ones who ensure the club gets things done.

“I must thank you all because it is you who make it happen,” he said in a statement.

“The supporters are the most valuable people in the whole scheme of things.

“I need to thank you all because for this brand to be what it is, it cannot go forward without all of you here.

“So, thank you very much about today and I hope we’ll enjoy the cakes.”
