National Bank of Malawi (NBM) plc Chief Executive Officer Harold Jiya cheered the Scorchers at their Hotel in Rabat, Morocco, ahead of last night’s Women’s Africa Cup of Nations (Wafcon) final against Cameroon.
The bank chief promised them NBM’s continued support.
Jiya, who was accompanied by Football Association of Malawi (Fam) President Fleetwood Haiya, motivated the Scorchers when he promised them that all their dues, in terms of match bonuses, would be paid in full and that they should concentrate on winning the final.
“You have put up a gallant fight and we, as the official sponsors of the Scorchers, are proud that we believed in you from the start when no one gave you a chance. We have walked together along this journey and we are still here to support you and will continue doing so because you have repaid our trust with the excellent results,” Jiya said.

“We have not come this far for nothing; there is one more mission to finish and we must fight until the final whistle. Let’s finish this mission tonight,” Haiya said.
He also hailed NBM plc CEO Jiya for motivating the girls and continued sponsorship of the Scorchers.
