Marumo Gallants president Abram Sello has defended the decision to purchase the topflight status of Moroka Swallows to claw their way back to the DStv Premiership.
Marumo Gallants chairman Abram Sello says the appetite shown by the Mangaung municipality to host their home games this season is the reason Bahlabane Ba Ntwa will play at the Dr Petrus Molemela Stadium.
Shortly after their relegation from the DStv Premiership was confirmed, Marumo Gallants chairman Abram Sello revealed it cost the club up to R18-million to compete in the CAF Confederation Cup this season.
The Department of International Relations and Cooperation (Dirco) hopes to facilitate the swift return of two Marumo Gallants staff members stuck in Libya after they were used as collateral by club chairman Abram Sello.
