Former First Lady Grace Mugabe is supporting her grandsons Simbanashe and Kaya Chikore who seem ‘passionate’ about becoming footballers with Harare giants CAPS United.
Simbanashe, 8, and Kaya are the sons of Grace’s daughter Bona Mugabe and ex-husband Simba Chikore.
Grace’s support comes after her attendance to a football tournament where Simbanashe and Kaya who play for the CAPS United Academy were participants.
Grace’s brother also has a son, Tafadzwa, who plays for the CAPS United Academy.
The football tournament was held at St Michael’s Primary School in Harare this past weekend.
CAPS United Academy won the under-9 shield.
Bona was also in attendance watching her sons play.
CAPS United legend Alois Bunjira took to his social media platforms to appreciate the support being shown by the “former first family to their boys”.
Bunjira posted pictures captioned: “It was really nice having the former first family coming through to the football tournament, to support their boys as the CAPS United Green Blood Academy won the Under 9 shield, at the St Michael’s Primary School tournament.”
In May, Simbanashe was part of the CAPS United junior team that played a curtain raiser match when the seniors clashed against city rivals Dynamos in the Harare Derby at Rufaro Stadium.
