Dewji reaffirmed the club’s ambition to secure continental silverware, stressing that this can only be achieved through unity and shared determination.

“Qualifying for the CAF Confederation Cup quarter-finals is a crucial step toward our dream of bringing the African title home. As I’ve said before, a dream seems impossible until it is achieved. We have big dreams and we are fighting to realise them,” Dewji declared.

He also took the opportunity to acknowledge the efforts of Simba’s board members, sponsors and technical bench, crediting their professionalism and dedication as key contributors to the club’s success.

Furthermore, Dewji highlighted the invaluable role of the fans, whose unwavering support continues to fuel the team’s achievements.

“The enthusiasm of our fans is an essential pillar for Simba’s success,” he said, adding that their passionate presence, especially at Benjamin Mkapa Stadium, inspires the team to give their best on the field.

Dewji also expressed his gratitude toward the government, particularly President Samia Suluhu Hassan, for supporting sports initiatives like the “Mama’s Goal” campaign.

“We are grateful to our government, especially for standing with us and uplifting sports in the country,” he noted and concluded his message by thanking the fans for their continued enthusiasm and unwavering support.

Simba’s impressive performance, highlighted by the Sunday’s 2-0 victory over CS Constantine at Benjamin Mkapa Stadium with the match played behind closed door, saw Simba secure the top spot in their group.

This positioning allows them to face a second-placed team in the quarter-finals, in accordance with CAF regulations.
