'Ba2cada' & Mokotjo forced to sell club

What could have been a successful story of building dreams for Free State youngsters in football ended up as agony for the two co-founders of the most promising ABC Motsepe football club, D’General FC.

The club founded by Lesedi FM’s energetic radio host, Nyakallo “Ba2cada” Leine and former Bafana Bafana midfielder, Kamohelo Mokotjo, faced financial difficulties, and the duo had to give up the club.

The club was put on sale three weeks ago by Ba2cada and Mokotjo. Ba2cada said that JDR Stars, a Pretoria-based outfit, had made an offer to purchase the status of D’General, however, the sale is not yet concluded.

When the team was formed seven years ago, Ba2cada and Mokotjo, who plied his trade in Europe and the US playing for teams such as FC Twente, Brentford and FC Cincinnati, aimed high to produce great footballers in Free State.

However, their attempts to keep the club afloat failed.
