Football is a predominantly male dominated sport, and having a woman as a second in command of an Association that runs the most popular, the most talked about, the most followed, and at times the most controversy riddled sport in the country and indeed in the world, is a most welcome development.
Women need to be involved to show that they can also do it. I have all the confidence that Akoonyatse will show her mettle and will be no push-over. With her will power, I know she will not just be there to add numbers and she will indeed make a marked contribution to Botswana football.
