Mzuzu Cycling Club secures K1.5m from TNM

Mzuzu Cycling Club has secured K1.5 million sponsorship from TNM to buy a cycling kit in South Africa ahead of this year’s 120-kilometre Tour de Dwangwa Cycling Race.

Mzuzu Cycling Club chairperson Portiphar Munthali said the support comes at a time when the club is preparing for the cycling race slated for September 6.

“TNM has sponsored us with K1.5 million for cycling kits. We thank the company for the support,” he said.

Munthali said the kit comprises jerseys, helmets, boots and cycling pads.

Cycling Federation of Malawi president Andrew Mkwezalamba thanked Mzuzu Cycling Club for being resourceful to secure such funding.

TNM head of Northern Region Richard Kwatiwani said it is his company’s wish to promote various sports disciplines in the country.

He said his company has also set aside K2 million in support of the Tour de Dwangwa Cycling Race.
