She was a staunch Highlanders supporter as evidenced by the Bosso logos on her perimeter wall and always had the team’s flag raised high regardless of the match result.

Many people who passed by her homestead stopped to take photographs or talk about her favourite topic, which was Highlanders.

Meanwhile, Highlanders joined Zimbabweans in mourning Dube yesterday.

In a statement posted on the club’s social pages Bosso wrote, “Highlanders Football Club has learned with deep sadness of the passing of a devoted fan, Lister Dube.

Lister Dube “Lister wasn’t just a supporter, her home in Natisa, in Kezi, was a vibrant tribute to her unwavering love for the club.

The entrance was a sight to behold, adorned with Highlanders logos and our famous black and white colours, with our flag flying high for all to see.

Her homestead was a powerful symbol of the passion that defines the Bosso family. “We extend our deepest and most heartfelt condolences to Lister’s family, her friends and the entire Highlanders community.

Her spirit and dedication will forever be a part of our story. ” Dube, a former Chronicle and Sunday News agent, started supporting Highlanders in 1972 when she moved from Natisa to settle at Kusile Flats close to where the Ndlovu siblings Madinda, Eveline, Marko, Peter and the late Adam Ndlovu lived.

Bukhosi Ngwenya of Pelandaba Bus Company, who has been associated with Highlanders for over six decades also moaned Dube, recalling how at times she would call him reporting that the Bosso flag was torn and needed replacement. “She would call and say brother-in-law, the flag is torn and I would buy her a new one,” said Ngwenya.

Ngwenya’s family buses drive past her home daily to several places in Matobo District. 🔗
