Simba Club's Media and Communications Manager Ahmed Ali has said that Simba's goal is to qualify for the CAF Confederation Cup (CAF CC) final and now heading into the first leg of the semi-final against Stellenbosch, they are going with the slogan HATUISHII HAPA
Speaking to journalists in Zanzibar at the launch of Hamasa ahead of the game to be played on Sunday, April 20 at the New Amaan Complex, Ahmed has dispelled fears for Simba fans and members while assuring them that what they have been doing at the Benjamin Mkapa Stadium, they will continue to do at the Amaan Stadium
"Moving the stadium has caused some people to become cold-hearted, the saying "No one leaves peaceful at Mkapa" has entered the Simba people, moving to the Amaan Stadium Simba will have the same quality. I am here to dispel fears for Simba fans that the shirt has changed but the sheikh is the same. The beast is the same and our goals are the same to do harm to Stellenbosch FC."
"What we would do to Stellenbosch at Mkapa Stadium is what we will do to Amaan Stadium. Let them come to the stadium to celebrate and leave the rest to us"
"The motto for entering the semi-finals was THIS IS WHAT WE ARE GETTING TOGETHER and we succeeded but towards the final we are coming and WE ARE NOT STOPPING HERE. We are leaving this stage and going to the final. Our goal is to play in the CAF Confederation Cup final," said Ahmed
Ahmed has urged Simba fans in Zanzibar to ensure they fight to take the team to the final
He said the opportunity for the match to be moved to Zanzibar was not a coincidence, as he believes there is a purpose in it
