Comments:Hivi wajameni kwa mtindo huu kweli tutatoka kwenye michezo?Milioni 45 ni kitu gani jamani.mshindi apewe milioni2 mbona masihala hivi Voda?Mimi naamini kwa mtindo huu hatutakuza vipaji vyetu hata siku moja.kuitangazia kampuni ya simu ya mkononi si suala dogo.unawaweka kwenye macho ya wanzania halafu angalia wanachotoa.ndio maana hakuna vipaji .fikiria hiyo milioni 45 hata wangepewa kila kilabu isingetosha.fikiria gharama za kukaa kambini na chakula na matibabu kwa wachezaji na viongozi halafu uangalia kitakachobakia.hebu tuseme inabaki milioni 30 gawanya kwa idadi ya wachezaji(23)jumlisha na idadi ya makocha viongozi na kamati yetu muhimu ya ufundi.yani kwa hesabu za haraka haraka ni kama milioni kila mtu.kwa muda wote huo.lakini viji milioni mbili kwa mshindi mi naona aibu kuviita vijisenti maana hata bilioni moja hazikaribii. Mi naona kuna haja kwa viongozi wa michezo kukataa ofa za namna hii ambazo zinawanyonya wanamichezo na klabu kwa jumla.Inafaa kuangalia upya viwango vya kudhamini vilabu na sio huu uonevu wa kifisadi. Nawaomba JF mlitupie macho hili.yani ligi inawezaje kudhaminiwa kwa Mil 45 katika kipindi hiki ambacho kampuni za simu za mikononi zinavuna faida kila kukicha?
