Zimbabwe Warriors supporter, Alvin Zhakata who made the “Cape To Cairo” roadtrip to watch football at the Afcon 2019 tournament is a relieved man after the CAF President Ahmad Ahmad said that the association was going to fund his trip back home.
As a bonus, Aluvah as Zhakata is popularly known, has been offered VIP tickets for the Afcon final to be played between Senegal and Algeria on Friday.
This will comes as a relief for Aluvah, who was now stranded in Egypt and had resorted to begging for funds to return home from well-wishers through a GoFundMe Campaign.
