Benedict Vilakazi and Manqoba Ngwenya are reported to be “stranded” in Botswana, after Notwane FC neglected to pay their salaries. KickOff reported back in August that the two former stars had joined the Botswana Premiership club, both signing three-year deal However, according to a report on BBC Sport the relationship quickly went south. The report claims ‘Tso’ and ‘Shakes’ are owed three months salary by Nontwane, and are “yet to receive their signing-on fees, salaries and allowances”. The pair were also allegedly “thrown out” of their hotel – without their luggage – because of unpaid bills. Botswana Footballers Union (BFU) spokesperson Kgosana Masaseng told BBC Sport that Ngwenya and Vilakazi are being put up at a lodge in Gaborone, while they wait for club owner Gift Mogapi to return from an international trip.  “We want out, we have had enough. If we had accommodation it was going to be better. Now we dont even have anywhere to sleep as even our luggage is held by the hotel,” ‘Tso’ is reported to have said. The pair are said to earn about US$2,400, making them the highest paid players in the Botswana League. Football can be cruel sometimes,from HERO to ZERO I am #wandy_x
